    Or you could get a instructor like mine, they told me he was a non smoker. But he is a smoker. Didn't find that out until I was a hour or so down the road. Did I say something, no. For the same reason you all have. Shortage of trainers.

    Welp, all done with TNT and I've been at SpringMo for a week now upgrading and I got my solo truck today, a 2011 Cascadia with over 250,000 miles on it. Some guys got 2014's but I pulled one of the older ones..oh well, it'll get the job done and I guess that's the main thing. Now I can get out there and start makin' some moolaa :)

    Thanks guys!

    Man getting all my stuff together is becoming a chore. Permit book was not there and they had to rebuild it but I didn't get a PrePass or EasyPass and permits is closed until Monday. My QUALCOMM is not working and they tried two reboots and still it says No Connection, so I guess they'll have to look at tomorrow at the tractor shop. I did get the detail shop to install my CB and a plate where the passenger seat was. That was quick and nice and smooth......oh well, there's always tomorrow.... :)

    The "tractor shop" is a 24-hour operation. Tomorrow? How about getting on the list tonight??

    Yeah, the sooner the better. Because your truck has just been assigned to you, it shouldn't have had any problems to begin with. Because of this they are gonna squeeze you in and fix it without making you wait for an appointment.

    Do not think this squeeze in is a regular thing. Though sometimes, some simple things they'll suprise "squeeze" you in.

    That appointment wait for the tractor shop can be 5 days long under normal circumstances. I made my 1700 appt on Wed morning. That was "earliest available."

    Well, the tractor shop found the problem to be a cable and fixed it up. My FM told me to keep the room at the campus and it looks like I have to wait till Monday to get my PrePass and EZpass and yes I tried to get them from driver lineup but was told Monday. Almost all set to go!
