And no school will let me just rent their truck sadly. There is a local school That has a 5 week, 5 days a week course for cdl. And they also have a 18 week weekend only "advanced course" that also goes over maintenance on the truck. Which I like so I can work and go to school at the same time. Both of these courses are manual transmission, which is a massive reason I am considering this. My goal is to eventually do hazmat tanker, and I heard that tankers are better in a manual. Plus, I don't want to limit my career possibilities. I also want to do something hourly local someday, and allot of smaller companies use manuals. Should I go to this local school, or just go with a big carrier again, like Swift or Prime and just do their basic schooling and drive for them?[/QUOTE]
