    Hello All

    Going to entertain this part of my bucket list.

    57 yr young male,married with 2 grown adult boys from Riverside area CA, retired from the county, starting third major career move.
    Most likely my last one, till I really hang it up.

    Anyway still going over the pro-cons of company and training facility, leaning towards taking training in Fontana and Schneider and CRST have somewhat struck a note, and the 20/10 option is not so bad either.Leaning towards paying my own way, still have to do some number crunching.

    Any info and or suggestions greatly appreciated.

    Look forward to a pleasant career with great folks to talk to.

    Max
