This is the first time that I have been able to upload anything to Truckingtruth.com so I am excited to present you with my first truck with Swift! I am still not sure how to upload any more photos to my photo bucket but I am sure I will learn! Hope you enjoyed them.

Prime Inc has a CDL training program and the first phase is referred to as PSD. You'll get your permit and then 10,000 miles of on the road instruction.

The following is from Prime's website:

Prime’s PSD begins with you obtaining your CDL permit. Then you’ll go on the road with a certified CDL instructor for no less than 75 hours of one-on-one behind the wheel training. After training, you’ll return to Prime’s corporate headquarters in Springfield, Missouri, for final CDL state testing and your CDL license.

I can voice control the video and photo app on my phone using my blue parrot headset. Even then, I rarely video or photo anything when driving.

No it isnt. It was a Town Pump truck stop somewhere in Montana. I think it was named 3 forks, Montana.

That's it! I knew it looked familiar. I posted pictures of a hippie bus in the flatbed thread, and saw them later at this very Town Pump when I stopped to fuel.
