    Just looking to see what people would recommend. Preferably with the shortest training time possible lol
    Needs to allow pets and it would be amazing if anyone had manual trucks.

    I think most trucks are automatic these days. But! @Chinatown might have something for you.

    I just left a post on this subject on your other thread. Not sure about pets at Roehl though, I don't remember.

    Where are you located? I’d recommend my company, but only if you’re somewhat local to one of our terminals.

    South/Appalachia doesn’t matter too much though because my plan would be to essentially live in the truck since i see no reason to rent a place.

    Please understand even companies that allow a pet never allow a pet during the 1-2 month training period where you share a truck with the trainer.

    No pets, unfortunately. Training is 3-5 weeks, depending on how quickly you learn.
