Another Team Driving Thread...
Thank you guys for all these responses and links. Tbh I have been thinking of more solo lately. For peace, less stress, alone time.
The thing w team was for a little more money and so I’m not stuck figuring things out alone too, I guess.
I can’t lie I’m nervous about being alone after training bc for some reason I feel like I’m going to forget everything and get stuck out somewhere not knowing what to do. Right now this is kind of like all I have going for me. Dropped out of college (long story). Lost my fam. Lost everything.
I’m going thru a lot right now and trying not to let my depression show. 🙈 apologies.
I just really really wanna do this. Overthinking everything I guess.
I been actually traveling for the past 30+ days going nowhere and exploring the US - driving nearly 12 hour days. Lost in thought and Just kind of on a sabbatical type thing. 🤷🏽♀️
.....Rambling. 🤦🏽♀️ Thank you guys.

That’s cool. I meant like I have a friend that wants to team w me after talking about going into trucking. And if I start with them after the trainer or whatever, and they become a nuisance... 😶 can I like let my manager or whoever know like “heyyyy it’s noy working out. Can I just drive alone?”
Idk. I’m still researching researching researching. Just haven’t seen anything on “ teams gone bad “ type stuff.
I just don’t want to start as a team and not be allowed to go solo in whatever company if it doesn’t work.
Prime might be your best shot. You will team for several weeks with a trainer. And if you hate it, they could easily put you solo. Keep in mind team trucks don't stop. Trucks get small when there are two people on them. As, I said, the TNT portion of Prime's training is teaming. That will give you a good taste of it. Good luck.

Hello all, I’m new to the forum. I read it a lot but just joined like last night.
Anyway...
So Idk if I’m blind and overlooking it but i can’t find anything on team driving with Knight. Do they offer team?
If not, I was thinking Prime maybe. My heart is with Roehl but I don’t want to be stuck on the east coast. (Read Roehl is almost all over east).
Another thing, IF I try the team thing and I absolutely cannot stand it, is it possible to go back solo? Or is team like a contract type thing?
