You won't be able to rent the truck yourself if you are the driver, but there could be a driver who would be willing to rent himself to you for a few hours.

GMan... have you been talking with my car loan officer??:eek2: That's the same suggestion he made just 20 minutes ago. Get my written test out of the way, get the permit, then approach a company about providing me assistance with getting the CDL, provided that I work for them when I get the license.
I am going to get the manual to be sure that there's nothing significantly different from the TX written exam, then take that test as soon as possible (basic plus HAZMAT). What I may do afterward is to try the Pilot's near Mt. Sterling and Georgetown to see if there's a driver who would want to earn a little extra pay for the day... maybe find one that is on a 24-hr restart.
