Awesome Brian glad to see you got an instructor. It's cool they are letting you get out on the pad while you have "down time". Keep the updates coming if you have time.

Hey man, good luck at Georgia Northwestern Technical College! Sounds like it's a much better fit for you and your family. Thanks for sharing the information you found about Prime with me in other threads, much obliged.

Brett! What time do you go to bed?! Waking up at 4am, okay, people do that, but 2am! That's crazy! Only person I know who does that is my grandma and that's only because she's deaf and has trouble sleeping!

I googled "gelled fuel blue smoke" and there does seem to be a correlation. That doesn't fix the fact driving on I95 at 35 mph is a bad idea.

First link that popped up for me was a school bus forum from 2005.

I can't say about the truck Heavy, but from what I've read of your posts you don't strike me as a person that would shut down unless there was something seriously wrong.

I have everything I need in a 30" duffle bag and backpack.

Brian, thanks for mentioning how many bags you brought. I was planning on bringing a backpack for the stuff I'm not letting out of my sight, but was on the fence about bringing 1 duffle bag or 2.

Guys I am at Prime right now. Went to the DMV today and transferred my permit to Missouri for only $7.50. It's not that hard. But strongly recommend getting that permit before you arrive. It makes life a whole lot easier when you get here.

Wow that's pretty cheap. How are you liking it so far? I know it's only been a few days..

Thanks Brian! I'll look into whether or not PA, DE and NC take part in the database service and factor that into the equation. Sounds like I may need to take PA off my list of potentials. Not the end of the world, I still have a couple of options in DE if I can't make things work here in NC.

Keep us posted on how you and the rest of your class is doing (if you have the time). I like seeing posts and threads from people who are going through Prime's program.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you too. I hope an instructor picks you soon!

Thanks Brian.

Jopa you are hilarious man. Check is in the mail lol.

Brett thank you for your reply. Good info and it was a confidence booster.

Sandman, thanks for getting back to me with the info you found out. If I think of anything else I'll post it and be glad to read what you say.

Trying to get everything lined up to get this ball rolling is difficult enough without having to worry about certain distractions.

I'm going to take what everyone had to say to heart and research all of the possible scenario's regarding how DE, PA and NC handle obtaining and transferring a CDL before I make up my mind about what state I call home. From what you all had to say it's clear to me now why it's better to have the permit beforehand. I was not planning on getting one before I showed up but now I try to make it happen if at all possible (without letting it stress me out).

Thanks again everyone!

High road iis an awesome program all I used and passed first go around... and about the bus think of it as a right of passage. :)

Awesome Matthew! It's a confidence booster for me when I hear people say that about The High Road Training Program.

Congratulations and good luck out there!
