    Maybe pre-mature but had interview and drive test today with Mansur trucking in Janesville, WI. Think I'm pretty locked in, set to start training monday the 25th. Was thinking of updating this thread with the adventures of a new driver if people wana hear it. :biggrin_255:

    I would like to hear about it too. I started a thread on Mansur a few months back and got feedback from a current driver that appeared to register to answer my questions. What he said sounded decent. I'm still in the thinking stages though. Where are you located at and where did you go to school? I take it you're a new driver? There's not much info on a small company like that so please post everything if possible good and bad.
