    If you have the ability and access to a truck and trailer, go for the A. If you get a B, you'll have to do it all over again to upgrade to the A. An A license will allow you to drive any B vehicle, endorsements not withstanding.

    Knowing what I know now after having my B since 1983 and going for my A now........Go for the A.

    With a class A license you can drive a class B truck if you want but you can't drive a class A truck with a class B license.

    So go for the A

    Go for the A. I wish I would have done it right away. Opens up a lot more doors for you.

    Go for an A. I went and got my B first but there just isn't anywhere near the amount of jobs having a Class A offers.
