I should have clarified...the trainer was pulling the loaded trailer. You are correct they want to wait a week or so typically.

Day 3
Went and picked up an empty and and went to Anderson SC to be loaded. It took about 1hr 45min to load and we then dropped the trailer back at the yard. We then went and picked up another empty and dropped it off in Spartanburg SC. Each time we picked up a empty the trainer had me doing the pre trip on the trailer so at least now I feel like i'm doing something. Understanding the paperwork and qualcomm a little more each day.
Day 4
Left for my OTR training...Heading to Houston, TX then Pasadena then Greensboro. We stopped for the night in Satsuma, AL and are getting ready to head out for our delivery tomorrow morning at 9am. I really like that we get to stay in a hotel when training...top notch. So far the training I have received has been awesome and I couldn't ask for more. will update soon.realsupatrucka Thanks this. -
Good look chief...I hear superior is a really good company....lol when u pull a loaded one yourself your going to be like holy sh##....I pulled some resin and I was like oh this is nothing....then pulled a load of fatty acid which is real thin and I felt the difference in the surge....belly unload tanks don't surge that much either...but those rear end unloads will beat u up if u not shifting right...I was shifting like I was still pulling a flatbed and it tugged at first and I was like this aint sh##..it came to the front I tapped those brakes to hard lol and it went baaaaam!!!!! But I love tanks its nothing better...
