Hey Guys, sorry its been a bit since I've responded. Logan & I have been super busy getting ready for school and going through all the helpful information on this website. So far we have taken the rules and regulation tests and passed with a 98%. Not too shabby, if I do say so myself. ]

We have 2 weeks now until we start school. Its down to the final count down. To touch base with a few of the comments as far as picking the correct schooling, NTTS is an accredited school that has an almost perfect employment placement. They have recruiters from all sorts of companies coming on weekly basis to check out new and upcoming drivers. We feel we have definitely picked the correct school.

I know a lot of you have said that the biggest issue on team driving is getting sick and tired of your spouse. However, Logan and I are the type of people that LOVE being together 24/7. One of the reasons why we chose this career. We are each other's best friends, soul mates, and already spend almost all day every day together. Its a very natural and comforting thing. Thank God. We have decided that if we can take the 6 week training period together, we will. But if not, I will go with a female instructor and we will just have to deal with the separation for a few weeks until we can get on the road together.

Thank you all for your helpful advice and guidance! We truly appreciate it.

I'm very happy for you! But there is a gigantic difference between loving being around each other 24/7 in an apartment/house with plenty of room. But you two will be in a truck the size of a small walk-in closet. Its just not the same. So even though you two love being around each other, still mentally prepare yourself for the challenges that come with sharing such a small area with each other.

I'm not trying to put you down, I'm very happy for you both and wish you nothing but luck. I'm also happily married and love to be around my wife 24/7. But I speak from experience when I tell you that its just not the same when you're in such cramped space together in a moving truck. My wife rode with me for two months.

I wish you good luck! And as I said, please prepare for it no matter how much you love to be around each other.
