    Bluebonn is a good mentor, he don't scream or nothing. Check him out after I get off his truck in a couple weeks.

    I think he said he was getting off the truck, renting a car and driving home.

    I left my 1st mentors truck and came home cause he was a ########, I've been at home for a couple weeks now taking care of some health issues, and will be going back out with a new mentor soon, anyone on here know of a good mentor that isn't a screamer and prone to road rage?..lol

    Get in touch with Bluebonn on this forum. He should be close to finished with Gold Miner. PM me so we can hook up on the phone if you want more info.

    I highly suggest Hurley Snell out of the Decatur, GA terminal. He was my mentor and he is still doing it. Great guy, and he is an amazing teacher. Very patient and by the last week you will be making ALL the decisions on the truck. Can't say enough good about the guy.

    Best of luck. I hope your health issues get better and for good.
     
    GregH65 and 123456 Thank this.

    I think GM is close to done. The mentor can be from any terminal and his DM will get you together. He had the inverter installed for GM already. I think you would get along great, most important, he's a great teacher.

    Im going to millington TN to start on 3/12. Just wondering if we can pick a trainer right off the bat, or is it just luck of the draw??
