I wouldn't drive a truck in this here state, a tour bus maybe,,,,,see the sites, cushy ride, good pay, and who knows, with all those passengers, you may even get lucky,
FlaSwampRat Thanks this. -
Welcome from a fellow Coloradan. I would also consider getting your P endorsement for passenger buses. There's always a demand around here to drive tour buses and you get to see some beautiful country at a slower pace.
Whatever you decide, good luck.FlaSwampRat and 201 Thank this. -

Like I say, these days, I'd definitely go the bus route. They are cancelling routes left and right in central Co. because they just cant get drivers. Pay is about the same as a truck driver, some nice coaches too, not some beater Volvo with 878K miles. When I took my P endorsement in Wis. I went to a school bus outfit that conducted those tests, for a fee, of course. Years ago, bus driver was a tense job. You were responsible for 43 lives, and no connection to the outside world. Today, with cell phones, much of that is gone. AND,,you have the respect of almost everyone, not just "another truck driver".

I went to CDL College in Denver for my Class A but they had buses to test in and were open to folks doing classes and tests on-demand. You can't book a test through the Colorado DMV for a commercial road test. You'll have to go the DMV for the computerized test for the endorsement first though.
