Big changes to Lease Purchase and then OO.
Wow. Well...good luck man. I mean that sincerely. I too owned a business, for 20+years, and there's no way I'd go to a L/O or O/O position. Too much risk, very little reward, and the never-ending fixed costs that must be covered.
But you're a smart cookie. If anyone can figure it out, you will.

Trucking Truth Closing October 1st – What An Incredible Ride!
Although I've had very minimal engagement here lately, I still visit daily to poke my head in, stay updated on things, and yes see my old friends.
Since my introduction a decade ago, this site has been a large part of my early and continued success. Closing it will be like closing a door of my past. However, I'm quite proud of the work we've done here.
To those who've helped me: I'm grateful.
To those I've helped:, I'm equally grateful for the opportunity.
To all: Peace

How was everyone's long weekend?
I broke a rib once. I don't reccomend it to anybody.
Nor would I. It's the first bone I've ever broken in my 56 years. All in good fun!

4 days of 4 wheeling, Heiney Lights, bonfires, Dragon's breath, assorted shooting contests, tater cannons, fun & frolic, field cars, smoked brisket & loins, Papa's Famous PitBeans, family & friends, collapsed tents, and a broken rib.
Good times...

Interested in obtaining CDL; needing advice
Oh and yes, the High Road is more than enough. It is by far the easiest way to master and retain the knowledge. It's been around for years and years. Countless members here have aced our tests because of it.

Oh wow... do you know if that's a universal thing or state-by-state? The part about being able to skip questions.
Yes, it's universal. The test is set up so that once you incorrectly answer x number of questions, you fail automatically, without having to finish. On the flip side , once you answer x number of questions correctly you automatically pass without having to finish. So it's in your best interest to skip the hard ones and answer the easy ones. In other words, get as many correct as you can before having to risk it on the hard ones.
The catch is you only get to skip a question one time. Once you cycle through all the questions, the same hard ones will come back around and you now have to answer them.

Hello again. It's been a while but I'm back!
Welcome back, Heavy C!
I've been extremely quiet in here lately also, but always lurking in the background.
Congrats on getting in at Lewiston. I'm up that way at least a few times a month. One of the guys I onboarded with in Bentonville is there too. He also runs a home-daily daycab. Yeah, it's a little less pay, but you're home every night. There's a value to that for sure.
Maybe we'll cross paths and swap lies sometime.

Any Walmart Associate-to-Drivers?
Hi Shane, I know a little about the A2D program, and might be able to help. Ask away, I'll try.
