Default Camp Freightliner

About a year ago I found out about a 3 day coarse given at Freightliner in Gaffney SC, it is called CAMP FREIGHTLINER. I signed up for the coarse since I was going to be in the Gaffney area when the coarse was given. The coarse I was told deals with everything chassis related, packed with good info and I hear the teacher is a real expert, it sounded great. I showed up with my wife eager to go and learn, when the teacher came with a shuttle bus to pick us all up he saw my TC and said U - OOO, the coarse deals specifically with the DP chassis and while some things might cross reference, much about the TC is very different. He then went on to say I was welcome to attend, but he was working on a new curriculum that would be focused on TC chassis...I was disappointed but decided to wait. Well nothing has happened as far as I know, Maybe if a few TC owners would contact CAMP FREIGHTLINER, they would get going on the new program. There is so much to know about these systems and I would Love to get all the info during a coarse directly from Freighliner, let's make some noise ......G

Im interested ! the FRED class sounds more "up our alley"....maybe point your contacts at our forum/thread where he can see the level of commitment and ask questions about what the content should be.

The Fred is still NOT what we have, we need a class on our specific setup, while Fred is a front engine, it sits lower and back further....I am sending out emails trying to get something going.....G
