I stated it was 39 months before I was made a TRAINER not that was total time I had on the road. As for some of your other things you go into about training drivers how to run triple didgits never did that and I NEVER FREAKING WOULD. I had a trainee kick it out of gear on Parlee you know tha little mountain leading into SLC. If I was not trained properly by my father both of us would have died that day. We were past the runaway ramp when it happened and he almost lost it going right by the 215 interchange. As to your list of commidities I have some that you do not list and I can not list for simple resons of NATIONAL SECRUITY and that is all I will say. I failed 4 out of 5 trainees that climbed into my truck and flat out told them that they did not have what it took to be a Professianl Truck Driver not a Steering Wheel Holder. For me driving a Semi was a Profession not a job. The reason I am not out there is called EPILEPSY read up on it a nice little conditon. I can not drive and am forced to live off of SS for the rest of my life.

I always crossed any and all open scales. I was a safe driver you are judging me on ONE time when I decedied to let my truck stretch her legs out. In a 6 year stretch how many times total were you given either a logbook ticket or a speeding ticket or placed OOS for either equipment or HOS voilations since REV you are always screaming about saftey.

No I am not - I am judging you on the fact that you felt the need to BRAG about it by posting it here.

Maybe My memory is a bit foggy but I don't remember any runaway ramps on Parley.

Personally I'd rather be trained by somebody who's pushed the machine to its limits at triple digit speeds. It might come in handy when you're bareling down a mountain after the brakes fade.

But I guess if your let your brakes fade on a big mountain you are an unsafe driver :roll:

Yes, and if you let your brakes face on a big mountain, you are an idiot as well.

Well fuck it then. Lets just do away with all the runaway ramps on the steep mountains. Because if you ever loose control on a mountain you are just unsafe, and as such you should be hurled to your death. We only need safe drivers out there like Rev that never make mistakes
