    Hello. Does anyone know any companies that use a majority of automatic trucks. I heard that some companies would move toward getting automatic trucks but I don't know if any has already made the change. I know that the beverage trucks have automatics. P.s.- I am in the Kansas City area. Thanks

    So many companies are switching to automatics, it's hard to keep up.
    Here's a few though and perhaps some other drivers will add some names.

    Tyson Foods
    TransAm
    MCT Transportation
    Tidewater Transit
    Abilene Motor Express
    Halvor Lines
    SVTN

    Knight has moved to all Auto, its sad when having a stick shift has become a status symbol.

    No Knight, I would def. go to Averitt first and Dollar Express Second and Knight kinda the bottom or hold out for Schneider to install all auto trucks into their fleet.

    every recruiter that has came to our school so far has pitched all autos so if that's your position im sure youll get a few as well.
