Good Evening Rich and...

Rich Good Luck with class and on test day just go through the steps you have been taught.
On my pre-trip I forgot the fuel cap and on the road test I left my hand on the shifter a little long a few time or put my hand on my leg. Yep lost points for both.

Morning all.

Thanks Chris. I like to drive with my hand on the gear shift as well. My shifting is not very smooth either. We had a midterm earlier in the week and I missed a couple of things on the pretrip but not enough to fail. My 90 degree back up I wish was better but then you can see much with those dumb stacks in the way. I'm fairly confident I should pass at this point unless I really mess something up.

Hammer down, it's Friday!

Good Sunday morning Ford Drivers.

With a home test I tested positive for covid yesterday, now I'm off work through at least Thursday.
This round of covid feels like a head cold.
