just enough clothes to last the week, hair brush tooth brush and stuff, its not your truck and your trainer might not have room for all your tools and cd boombox and computers, just travel light until you get your own truck and then load er up with all your goodies...... good luck with ashley ...

Does Ashley want you to go out with a trainer for awhile? And if you ever get a load here to our store in Coshocton, Oh give me a heads up!

Don't bring a toothbrush, a friend of mine that became a trucker stopped brushing his teeth out on the road. It was too much of a hassle w/ the public restrooms.
Just lay off heavy sugared foods and you and your teeth should be fine.

Get a disposable cup, spit toothpaste in cup, then rinse your mouth with water and keep the teeth God gave you!!!! I would hate to see that guys teeth, or have to meet face to face with this person. BRUSH YOUR TEETH AND FLOSS EVERY DAY!!!!!!!!!!
