    Go with Prime. You only need $100.00 dollars. Prime even sends you a bus ticket to get to orientation, has housing, fronts money for food, pays you $600.00 a week while riding with a trainer, helps you convert that permit to a CDL.

    if your going for a loan why not try to get a class A, the price wouldn't be much different, He mentioned prime cause its cheap and you get a class A and the training you need. But why do you just want a class B ?

    Stick shift is pretty hard for me i drove a automatic a couple times and it was like driving a car, and on top of that the trucks my old school had seems like they built they trucks themselves from glue and stick. That was My next questions how's the Trucks they use comes I'm down with class A if needed

    If you're afraid of the gearshift, trucking may not be the best career choice for you

    Plenty of trucks have autoshift nowadays...personally i stay the hell away. If its class B you look for you might be screwed cause this whole industry offers free/assisted cost training only for class A

    Get a class A, same price, can drive B also. You need to know manual shift anyway, there are class B manuals any, if you cant drive, you are really limiting your job possibilities
