    The only problem I came across last year was that some said I would have to repay for school all over again if I did not drive right away.

    Get the Class "A" with the passenger endorsement. Why? Keep in mind that "some" Coach and or Bus configurations depending on weight may require a Class "A" CDL. Also be sure to test in a Coach that "HAS" air brakes or there will be an air brake restriction on your CDL.

    My thinking is you might want to cover as many bases as possible because you don't want to sit because you don't have the needed license class or endorsements. :biggrin_25523:

    paying for the training for a CDL and not using it is just a waste...A friend of mine graduates from college this year..paid 45 grand over the last 4 years for a degree and is moving to Chicago to drive a city bus..wtf?? what a waste.
