This has been a good thread for me to read - sending husband out the door today to start his training (not with Swift - but similar Co.) - Glad to see GOOD reports!
The first truck I trained in was a Volvo 670 with a 223" wb. You could turn the tires off a trailer with that truck. It had one heck of a loud APU set though. Never ran the darn thing since it would shake your teeth out if you left it on overnight. I lost my mind once, then I found it aga..... wait a second! Where did I put that thing again?

Qa'Pla = Success bortaS bIr jablu'DI', reH QaQqu' nay' = Revenge is a dish best served cold Klingon is the one that did the costume stuff - I was his makeup artist. We had so much fun! We would do parades, fund raisers and film premires. Then we got into Jeeping and away from the Klingon/Star Trek stuff. When our daughter out grew Jeeping, we moved on to motorcycles. Now we are heading out as Truck Drivers (Klingon is actually heading back into driving - he was O/O 20+ years ago)... We are planning on a good 10-15 years driving - depending on how long God lets us
Shhhh - its a secret - even HE doesn't know where he's headed - LOL! He is the one that made the decision, I'm just following his lead. We will see where life leads us
Well, I'm headed back to Fontana. Our PTA is set for 0700 today, but as yet we don't have a load. Hopefully I won't have to spend the night at the terminal, but it's a likely possibility. See y'all later.
