    I'm testing out from Trucking School tomorrow, and have an orientation date with May on Monday (28 March) in Payette Idaho. Can't wait to get this test over with and get started. I have done a lot of research these past few months and talked with numerous drivers at many of the local truck stops here in Boise. I have found all of the May drivers very friendly and easy to talk to. The equipment appears to be maintain very well and they have a great safety rating. Looking forward to working with a great group of drivers. Wish me luck tomorrow, hope to see ya on the road. :biggrin_25514:

    I'm giving thought to applying to May. I'm almost done with my second week of school and just one more week to go before I test to get my CDL.

    Good Luck idfive, Sunday will be two weeks out for me, I haven't had any internet except one night at bossleman, but it was late and didn't stay on there long.
    The trainer has the new Pete 587, it's been in the shop three days so far, it will be in the shop tomorrow and if they don't get it finished we will have to wait until Monday and possibly Tues to finish. So I'm learning the sitting and waiting part of trucking:biggrin_2556: don't like it. I guess it's all part of being a driver.
    Hopefully your starting out will be better than mine :biggrin_25523:
    I might be at Payette Monday or Tuesday, maybe we'll meet.

    Passed my Test Thursday. Only missed 1 item on my pre-trip, ace'd my backing manuevers, and only got 3 points on my driving test. I am scheduled for orientation at May Trucking on Monday. Thanks to everyone for the words of encouragement. Hope to meet you all out on the road someday. CAM, I look forward to meeting you Monday if you are there. I will be wearing a grey Peterbilt hat, my showtime is 1030.
    Take care and be safe out there.

    It's a newer model of truck, I just got one the new Cascadias. got my fingers crossed I don't have any issues. The 587 has the DEF tank on the wrong side lol. I sat for week and half w/ last truck when I first got it to get the clutch fixed.
