I'm glad he made it through the agility and all the other tests. I went through the same thing he did back in Feb. and went to the same school. He'll enjoy it, but once he hits the classroom they'll cram alot of info into him in a 3 week peroid. I just finished up with my 2 week stint with my driver trainer for Maverick Specialized and go back tomorrow for testing out and hopefully being assigned a truck by the end of the week.
Once your hubby starts his driving training with the instructors in Thomasville, they'll spend about 95% of their time driving on backroads in the country. I found that to be a huge help once I went out with my driver trainer! Driving on those big highways is pretty easy compared to trying to make it around a backroad corner with a split axle trailer...lol BOL to him! Tinbender

you are right it does. Just trying to get out how the first day went since there be alot of new people not knowing what to expect. I wanted to get out how things went for anybody getting ready to start. Also one guy was sent back to Texas because of high blood pressure. Thank goodness he never sleeps better than in a tent at the race track that is what his lodging sounds like. Small trailer with two strangers sharing a bathroom.
