Wilson states on their website that they utilize Freightliner Cascadia & Peterbilt 579's with 12 speed automated manual transmission.
I'm looking at going to their training in Missoula, MT. Can anyone verify whether the equipment they trained on limited them to 'automatic' only?
Given the lack of clutch/shifter, it seems this equipment would force an automatic-only restriction on CDL. If anyone can chime in, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

One of their recent graduates said the training is on stick shift, but you get an auto after graduation.
Better call the school and ask to be certain.mistermoose Thanks this. -
I have a friend who trained with Wilson in MO almost two years ago, and he's automatic only.
Also, they seem to be getting rid of the Petes for Freightliners.mistermoose Thanks this. -

Yup confirmed with Wilson. They're an auto company. That's a big no for me.
