    Hmm, I think that most of the folks here are being KIND, GENEROUS, THOUGHTFUL, HELPFUL, INSIGHTFUL, CARING, and offering perspective on what to expect. No offense Phro, but I doubt you knew nor had EVERYTHING you needed on your truck when you first got started. I am thankful that folks are helping others transition into this career. I am hopefully headed to school soon and being a bit of a perfectionist any insight will help overcome my own neurosis for particularities and both my bred and instilled disciplines of youth to military. So thank you EVERYONE including my bro Phro!

    I have an iphone and just use the Google maps app which shows you where you are, search and locate, driving directions, etc...works great. Once I get on the road I know I'll need it while trying to earn those first checks...

    I'm a vet and they used to say they fed us rock salt so we wouldn't have any "rising" issues if ya know what I mean...can't say I would've had that issue on a boat with 500 guys but OK...using for this method is much more acceptable...

    I bought some Axe body spray. Must have been a defective batch. Not even the lot lizards stopped by!
