Ready for the next adventure!

My current student stated he waited 4 weeks before getting picked up by me. We just have too many students coming out of school and not enough trainers to accommodate. I hope your wait isn't too long. Good luck out there.

You'll likely train in a 10 Speed Cascadia, but there are a handful of trainers still in autos. Word from the top is 50 new trucks, either Cascadias or Prostars, are being added to the fleet each month and they're all manual transmissions.

 

I waited two weeks to get on a training truck.

I thought you guys only ran automatics? Are you guys phasing them out?

 

Looks that way. There's no plans to add any automatics to the fleet down the road. Next 600 trucks will all be 10 speeds. I've had my 10 speed Cascadia for over a year now.

 

I'm guessing they don't get better fuel mileage and they cost more to maintain?

 

Probably. I've had more break downs with the automatics than I have had with the standard transmission, but that's not saying much. I could just be lucky.

 

You shouldn't wait that long. I'm done with my student next week, so. I'm sure a lot of other trainers should be getting freed up soon
