Is it true most top trucking companies are switching to automatics

Not true...you're looking at the very bottom, not the top. Try again.

 

Useless Express was one of the very first to get them and that was teeny years ago,almost.

 

Most Mega Carriers are. Easier to train and retain new drivers. Supposedly better gas mileage and less fatigue on drivers specifically when in the city. Most Mega Carriers will be completely automated except for training purposes so driver doesn't have any restrictions on their CDL. Mom and pop companies for the most part will stick to standard.

 

If a clutch fatigues you in city driving,you need to find another job.

 

Yes it is. Fact is human beans born after 1960 lack DNA to walk and chew gun simultaneously

 

I personally prefer a manual transmission . It gives you better control of the truck .

 

Right one more pedal makes you tired you've got problems and if you can drive worth a crap you wont need to use it much in city driving that much either

 

As human being born after 1960 I resent that. I can chew gum and walk at the same time, well most days anyway.
