Thank you G-Town, your support and encouragement during my time in CDL school gave me a great deal of confidence and helped relieve some of the anxiety I was feeling; your credit to this profession and lifestyle really is understated.

Thanks MM, I appreciate that. There are a whole bunch of high quality individuals on this forum willing to share their experience and advice.

Anytime. I just hope as I gain more experience, that I can be as helpful to everyone here as yall have been for me. As I have said multiple times before: I wish I would have found this site before I went into trucking the first time. I wouldn't have made as many mistakes as I did had I known about this site like I do now. Yall and God has given me a second chance here and I intend to continue to take yalls wonderful advice to heart and utilize yalls tactics so I can be as successful of a driver as yall have been. I live by the motto that Every day is a good day. Every day I can wake up and know I am reliving my dream and also that I get to talk to yall on this forum is truly a GODSEND. I am very thankful for that. Yall all are like the family I wish I had and for that, I am very thankful.

.... that I got passed going downhill on a steep grade. The Rewarding part was when I drove away from the TA & one of the Speed Demons dropped his trailer across the street in a Emergency cause he smoked his brakes, which then ignited his trailer on Fire! Yeah, I did not feel bad at all about being the Turtle that beat the Rabbit! Cheers~

Don't you know . . . slow is fast! (hopefully you are safer going slower. I think this is true to some extent.)
