    Nice trucks. They don't have their own cdl school though.
    All those companies will provide good training though.
    R.E. West there's no contract to sign.

    CFI has good pay for new drivers and Stevens has the nicest equipment.
    Stevens Transport:
    • Thermo King TriPac Auxiliary Power Unit (APU)
    • Fuel stop directions
    • Cruise control
    • Jake brake
    • Room for a laptop computer, refrigerator, microwave, satellite TV, and plenty of storage space
    • Double-wide premium stand-up sleeper bunks
    • Air ride seats

    Right around 90k+. plus beni's. Some guys make more some less. I don't want to work that hard any more. Had a few 100k plus years.

    Should I be worried I am 6 foot 9 inches tall can I fit in Stevens truck comfortable. The driver at the warehouse I work at said to stay away from Kenworths and Peterbilts as they were a tighter fit compared to Internationals and Freightliners or was that just hog wash!!!

    I'm 6'5". I'm in a Pete. It's kinda tight. You'd do better in a Volvo or something with stand up right out of the seat. Like a condo.

    That would work. Wasn't even thinking of the 660 and such! He'd fit in that just fine. For some reason I was thinking of the smaller KWs they have/had.
