    What type of trucks are the Class B drivers driving, meaning are they automatics, 5 speeds, 10 speeds, etc? Thanks in advance!

    10 speeds in a B are rare. 6 straight, most common in 33,600 gvw 8, 8LL most common in the up to 54,900 range, and autos for either are the norm in anything B.... (i know i didn't really answer your question. )
     
    Spacat1 and Mike2633 Thank this.

    Our straight trucks in Maryland are 6 speeds, Hillcrest Foods here in Cleveland has both standard and automatics. With straight trucks it's a crap shoot and can go either way.

    I've never seen a Fastenal Straight Truck, though lots of tractor trailers, but never a straight truck. Although I know they have them.
     
    Spacat1 Thanks this.

    I dont know of anyone on the ttr that runs for them, another thing to consider is they may have a social media policy baring employees from discussing the company openly...

    I saw a few old threads where Fastenal drivers openly detailed their jobs so I'm gonna bump this one last time.
