Never said I've been driving truck since '97. Said I've had my CDL since '97. Thanks for the comment.If you've been trucking since '97 then you got more miles backing up than your instructor has going forward.
Just bear with it. He's probably more intimidated by you than you could possibly be of him.
Be nice, smile a lot, don't be a hero.
You're just going through the moves now.

AdviceStart my feeder driver training 30 May. Any last minute advice or things you wish you knew before you started?

But not here....LOLDon't be afraid to ask questions.
Lots and lots of questions...
Endless questions...
There's an outdated reason we are instructed to park in "neutral". Anyone know why?
I can wait.
Tractors used to have pneumatic clutches. That is they operated under air pressure just like the brakes. If you left them in gear and bled the air pressure you could not shift into neutral and start the engine.I'd be interested in knowing if Phil will train in a manual trans truck or an automatic.
If manual, be sure to double clutch until/unless you're told not to. Management knows we "slipshift" (no clutch) when they aren't around. If you're instructed to park with the trans in neutral then do it (be sure to set the park valve).

That definitely attracts women up here. Big women.She knows he's a big burley trucker who eminates the pungent odor of the finest aged Wisconsin ceddar.
