Hey, everyone! I'm literally only days away from jumping in a truck with a mentor is there anything I need to know? I heard most mentors have only been driving for 6 months!

Don't believe everything you've heard.

Jon R., I agree with Steve on this. Careful putting too much stock in what you hear.

In contrast the Swift mentor I road trained with had 16 years of experience driving, 6 as a mentor.

I can only speak about Swift's Mentor Policy. Swift requires that you have a minimum of 6 months experience to qualify to be a Mentor. It does not mean that most Mentors have only 6 months of experience. Be careful about using the phrase "I have heard"! Good luck.smile.gif
