[QUOTE="Albertaflatbed, post: 12382176, member: 339044"]Well, heavy duty mechanic is a 4 year trade, check out your provincial apprentice board and you can find the program outlines by year etc and see what is involved in that aspect. The job is physical though so it sounds like that may be an issue for him, but maybe not? Easiest way is to go spend time in a truck maintenance shop and observe even for a couple hours, and talk to people doing the job, see what they say. There are certainly lots of mechanics in the 60+ age range[/QUOTE]
