Welcome Cynthia, I used to live in Kingman. I worked at the Hospital there. I also volunteered as Victim Witness Advocate with the County Attorney's Office. Good luck in your training.

Welcome aboard. Good luck with everything. CFI is expanding their training and orientation locations. I can't keep up.
Great news Cynthia. It's nice to have another Arizona driver on the forum.
Is there a lot of traffic out in Kingman AZ? Does CFI teach auto-shift or manual transmission?

No traffic problems in Kingman. Small City at the junction of I-40 and SR 93,with a population of around 30,000, and about 3500 are inmates at a private medium security prison. I believe the prison is the biggest "industry" in Kingman. I'm sure Cynthia will set me straight if I got anything wrong.
I'm an Arizona native born in Prescott. I lived in Kingman about 1990, and recall that there were five highways in and out of town with a truck stop at each end. The wind always blows. It was a nice town to live in. I drive through there a lot on American Truck Simulator, but it's not all that accurate.
