Congratulations on your one year anniversary with CFI, Big Scott!

As of May 25th, I hit the one year mark with CFI. I have over 120,000 safe miles. It has been a great ride. The only states beside Alaska and Hawaii, I have not been to yet are, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Main. This is a beautiful country. I feel that I have proved myself reliable and that I have a good relationship with my FM. I seem to get almost everything I want. Sometimes without asking. I love CFI and trucking. I pull dry van and this is the easiest job I have ever had.

A very special thanks to Brett for creating this site. It was a great tool to help prepare me for the realities of trucking.

Stay safe.

Scott

Dry Van:

A trailer or truck that that requires no special attention, such as refrigeration, that hauls regular palletted, boxed, or floor-loaded freight. The most common type of trailer in trucking.

Congrats, Big Scott. Every time I see a CFI truck I look to see if you are behind the wheel. So far, I've been disappointed....but one of these days....

Thanks everyone. I will be heading home in the morning to help deal with a family emergency. CFI did a great job to get me home quickly.

Yeah I know - that is what I look for! I saw several CFI trucks today, but insofar as I could see, none were you...but I will keep looking.
