    Yes, Prime TNT training is 40,000 miles but if you go through Primes PSD training then you only have to do 30,000 miles in TNT. In TNT mileage is for the truck so all the miles your trainer drives counts towards the 30,000/40,000.

    Training time on the Backing pad does not count towards your TNT training miles. Only dispatched miles count during TNT, whether you are driving or not, as long as you are in the truck and available to drive it counts.

    as a sucessful PSD student you get 10K miles credit toward your 40K required miles. In your trainers truck for TNT, all miles count toward your 40K, yours and your trainers. Cardinals and Highway answered it good, I just kicked it a bit further for you

    You could be put on a reefer truck for TNT if no flatbed TNT trainer is available at the time. You also could be put on a flatbed that runs all 48 which I would think would be best as I would think you would get you required miles in sooner.
