Swift Update
Well, it's been a while since I've been able to post. I attended and finished Swift's Lewiston academy. It was intense but I got 'er done. I really liked the instructors. Ed was my main road instructor and Vicki was in the classroom. Sam is a character! Lewiston is a tough place to learn but I wouldn't trade that location for any other! I am now 2 weeks into my mentorship and am based out of Troutdale. We have already been through CA,AZ,NM,TX,OK,MO,PA,KS,NJ,IL,IN,WV,OH....and am now in Albuquerque, NM. The equipment is nice (2010 International) and the trailers have not been too bad either. So far, everything that I was told by Swift has held true. What I have/am learning is that one needs to be pro-active with regard to their own interests. You will get info and help but they cannot read your mind so ask ask ask. I gotta say, I am so far happy with my decision.
