need help
 
hello all.
i just got my temporary permit in Illinois and i have to get the driving exam and pre-trip inspection and the maneuverability.
i am looking for someone in chicago,il that can offer me some training for my exam and can also come with the truck so i could have a truck for the exam.If it`s possible i would like a 48 foot trailer and a truck without sleeper and with automatic transmission.
If someone can help me please reply as soon as possible so we could discuss further details.
Thank you.

bobby .... what your asking could easily be the worst thing for you. You need to go to a qualified school and do it the right way. Driving a tractor is a very dangerous thing to do not only can you kill yourself, but easily kill someone else .... and asking for an automatic at that :shock: ... nope ... doubt that's ever going to happen. sorry

NOT a good idea! Go to a CDL school and do it right (and safe). If you can't afford CDL school, there are companies that will sponsor your training and cost you nothing.
Good Luck!

Don't know about other states, but in Ohio shifting is not part of the test. You can take it in a auto or manual. It has to be a certain length, be a combination and have air brakes at least on the tractor and that's about all it requires.
