[QUOTE="Feeder665, post: 4109253, member: 76924"] As others have said, you have to unlearn package. It’s hard, it’ll stick with you...but try to push it aside. Study the COLA and pre-trip while at home / hotel. I took many photos of the tractor. Engine, tires, 5th wheel, cab, etc. Then I set them up in my hotel room and went over them in order. Take a break between each time. Eat. Read the news. Do another pretrip. COLA is pass or fail. Be sure to get it word for word. When you’re in the cab with the instructor, drive. Just drive. Focus on the road and the feel of the truck. People will be mad at you for whatever reason. Let them be mad. Just drive. The rest will be natural. It’s a basic course really, as others have said. You’ll learn more from your fellow feeder drivers. Feel free to ask anyone questions. [/QUOTE]
