    Yea I was doing a reset while I had my truck in the shop. I was there longer than necessary due to them needing a delivery 16 hrs after I arrived there, so I couldn't start my reset until after the delivery. They had my truck almost a day and a half. Finally got everything fixed that needed it, plus some.

    today was awesome, was a long day at the end there. must admit i was fairly nervous about backing and hooking up the trailer for some reason but it was a piece of cake along with straight backing considering we did it for about 5 hours non stop, go forward for about 200 feet then back for 200 feet over and over and over again! :)

    True, day 5 was awesome & long! The (un)coupling & pre-trip came back from the past. Backing was, shall I say, steady. The last maneuver we were making made for a bit more of a challenge. You'll appreciate it next week! I look forward to the next 2 weeks!!!
    Now 2 days to think about it.

    When did they start training in Cartersville again? I thought that was closed. Hope everyone there made it through the storms ok. Good luck to all.

    Chrip63, Im not sure when they started up the training again here in Cartersville, but im 100% sure MrG could tell you. As far as the storms, the tornado hit bout a mile north of the terminal, and as of yesterday the terminal was still without power.
