Which Companies DO NOT Have Manual Trucks?

All? Probably not. What are you afraid of?

 

Working

 

Fedex Freight as far as I know isn't buying any new manuals. But we run trucks till they are dead. There are still some old manuals around. As far as I know they will not hire anyone with a auto restriction.

 

They changed it a few years ago, we now take drivers with an auto restriction. I've heard they're even letting drivers in the apprentice program choose to learn in an auto.

 

I left Dayton Freight Lines 9 years ago, at that time they had been purchasing auto-shifts only for 3-4 years, so by now I’d imagine any manuals still around would be spares.

 

Didn't know that. But for what they charge for the appreciate program these days. If they quit of course. I think I'd get as much out of it as possible.

 

none in ohio anymore. got a grant or tax break or something to be rid of them completely. have no idea about our other operating states.

 

That is the one of the biggest drawbacks on today’s ‘modern’ trucks; the quality of the ‘driver pool’ has diminished over the years. We have more ‘drivers’ but far less ‘operators’.
