Contact Dutch Maid Logistics and ask. School isn't on the website yet, but do have a new one. Think all they use is automatics. I think the cdl school started in Feb.
Nice trucks and lots of miles every week.

You could also get in a private school that uses auto, then apply only to companies that do the same.

Swift is all automatics. And (not sure why), I got my cdl with no "automatic restriction". Swift was really great for me all around. The academy taught me to pass the test and that was it. I had a good mentor. Was solo after 4 weeks on mentor's truck. Unfortunately I had to leave because the 41 to 55cpm sliding pay was not enough.

I don’t know your plans for the future but I would not want to have that restriction. Maybe you have physical reasons but I think you could learn. I got my younger sister to figure it out

I think your question is 180° off! Virtually everybody trains in automatics and hires those who only drive automatics. If you want to be trained in a manual and find a company that has trucks that have manual transmissions, those will be hard to find.
