    Good luck.

    You can do it. Look at some of the ither idiots out here. They could do it so, so can you.

    I dont think there is a time limit? Just taje your time and run through everything.

    Maybe you wont even pull the full pre trip and just a section.

    Did you fail on the brake test kast time? Thats where id put most my attention. Even if you forget the names of things just make sure point out what your doing each step.

    There is a 30 minute time limit for the pti

    No I just ran out of time, got 57 out of 69 needed to pass, did the incab twice, rather than picking up where I messed up at.

    I passed with no problem, did my maneuvers with one pull up and that was on my alley dock, held it at 12 for tooo long, and I finished all three in 13 minutes, nailed my pti, and nailed the road test.Thank you all for the support :)

    I have been since the first week of school, my first option is Melton, then Western Express, and then a local company that's regional.. I have family working at the local company which have good pull within the company; but lately she's been ignoring my emails and hasn't returned any of my phone calls. I need to get something together before the week is over, if I go with Melton I will get on a bus Friday night for OK. My family thinks I should go with the local regional company because my brother in law and cousin work there and they are union, and trucks are all governed at 72.. I just want to make decent pay starting out with a great company that has decent benefits.
