    The nice thing for us is that he has been out there long enough now that he can be my trainer. Im not sure I would like being stuck in a truck for 5 weeks with someone I dont know...

    Yeah - that was a concern of ours as well... I got really lucky with my trainer. Gary didn't :biggrin_25512:

    Neither did Richard, he wasnt allowed to have ANY food or drinks in the truck, his trainer kept trying to take his phone charger and tell him he couldnt talk on the phone at all during his 5 weeks, he wasnt allowed to use the GPS and from the begining his trainer slept while he drove and forced him to sit in passenger seat AWAKE the entire time his trainer drove. Grrr...

    Klingon & Lady K, when you get hometime in Sac, where does your coming and going loads come from usually? Wife and I are curious of drive times after last drop and next pickup? Any info you can help us with is great..... Thanks

    We get/take loads to Tracy and Stockton... that's not too far from
    Sacramento... Or they give us loads with 'time' on them with a route that passes through Sac. We have an area right infront of our house that we are able to park (when the weather is dry) so loaded or empty works for us.
     
    Truckin_Couple Thanks this.

    Woo Hoo!! Totally awesome :D Not sure if you have time now or not - but we chose to fly - we got reimbursed the cost of the bus ticket, so the flight was only around $25 dollars. MUCH nicer and quicker ;)
