    home from school finally, it was a long 3 weeks!! but well worth it. ASU Newport has a very good course with plenty of good instructors and plenty of trucks (about 30). the entire school only has about 60-70 students split up by weeks (20-25 per class) so there are always plenty of trucks available to practice in. this is helped by the fact that the classroom time is rotated to minimize student/truck ratios.
    now i am sitting at home waiting on my trainer to get here from Indiana, he should call to schedule an exact P/U time today i would guess, maybe tomorrow. he was leaving/loading in In. yesterday afternoon heading this way.
    thanks to Wiseone and the other helpful members of this board!! if it wasn't for the insight i gained reading on here daily, i might have made a poor choice of schools to attend. THANKS Y'ALL!!
