    I know the gas company Mobil in Providence, RI have full automatic (no clutch) 13 speed KW T800's. I think they have the CAT C13 engine. I wouldn't mind driving one myself. Come on, no clutch?! :biggrin_255:

    Recruiters are sales people often with a hidden agenda. I will never, never, never ever believe more than 50% of what a recruiter says. Last time I did I ended up in Panama and Grenada in a war zone instead of two years of easy duty in Hawaii.

    You know what they say-first time shame on you, after that shame on me.

    Thats one of the reasons I read so many of these forum posts (even those a couple of years old). The recruiters can talk all day and promise the world. Drivers will talk about the reality of experience good or bad. :biggrin_25514:

    Recruters are like used car salesmen that are trying to sell you a lemon. They now what they are selling is crap but dont care cause once you by their lemon they get paid. They tell you what you want to hear( the good stuf) and avoid the stuff you dont want to now (even though you should hear it).

    I wondered about that when I heard there were companies with autos that took students. Early on anyway I am gonna stay away from companies running autos.
