    Been off the road for two years and only have 1 experience prior to that. I wanna get back on the road with a refresher but having trouble finding companies that still use manual transmissions.

    I live in Scranton, Pennsylvania. I just applied at Freymiller but was turned down so looking for other options.

    I think this company gives drivers a choice of manual or auto.

    Western Express will hire you. Don't know if they have any manual transmissions left in the fleet though.
