    I have 2 options to choose from:

    1) Get my CDL now and then go directly to SLC for TNT
    2) Go to Springfield for PSD and TNT

    Is there something special about Springfield that makes something all new drivers should experience?

    Springfield is 20 times nicer as far as the actual terminal. Not sure how SLC does it there for new hires but in Springfield everything is setup at the Campus Inn so no real need to be shuttled around to get to your classes. Plus the Campus Inn has food on site and there is currently no food at SLC until the new termin opens there. If you can get your CDL and go straight to TNT that would put you getting paid when you go out with a trainer as there is no pay for PSD's.

    Regardless, you'll end up at the Springfield terminal at one point or another. SpringMo is a real nice place though and was always a nice place to kind of 'come home' too after being out.
