    I ended up taking the "hound", a very long uncomfortable ride haha!

    Everything is done, now I'm playing the waiting game! Since I already have my CDL-A, I just have roll call and sim class. I'm planning on focusing on my pre trip for the next couple days, and getting in any extra sim time I can get.

    The sims are okay, the feel of the truck just isn't there. I'm trying to break myself of some of the bad habits I developed before, like keeping my hand off the shifter when not shifting etc..

    Everything's going good, this was definitely a good decision, coming to Prime.

    If you get to a yard while in training (Pittston, SLC) laundry is cheaper.

    Pack light but also pack for weather.

    If you bring a suitcase and a couple of duffles and a back pack ...and a shoulder bag .... (Whew ) and a laptop bag...( yes I've sern a couple of students come into Springmo like that) expect to have to leave some stuff behind.
