    Hello everyone im from the not so great state of Massachusetts.I recently got my CDL here.What a PITA that was.I had never gone to any type of school for it.I had to get it because of my job as a diesel mechanic working on Army trucks,so after giving us about a month i passed.2nd time is a charm..lol

    I am 30 yrs old and in the Army reserves(11yrs now) where im also a mechanic and recovery guy(wrecker operator) we have a fleet of M915A4's which are basically civilian Frieghtliners with 5spd Allision electric push button auto's.Ive been driving those for a few years as well as our old M818's.
