    Congrats on passing your PTI... redundancy... bore them with it on every item you go to. "not cracked, frayed or worn, securely fastened, no leakage... blah, blah... " They'll pass you just to get away from your boring and repetitive PTI (Laughing right now remembering mine).

    Why did you try Roehl, training is only 8-14 days with a trainer?

    Well if you find you that you need to Roehl would be glad to have you. A swift buddy of mine from truck school is coming here because hes only getting 800-1200 miles a week.
