Hey all, Name's John. Working on my second or third career here (and I'm kinda thinking I finally found what it is I want to do when I grow up!). Just completed Western Truck School in W. Sacramento, CA. Got my Class A yesterday. Finished (I'm told) 1st in class. How 'bout that, 31 years after high school I make valadictorian! (uh...spelling?)
Can't recommend much for the school in terms of equipment (trucks kept breaking down) or cleanliness (it was fly season in W. Sac), but they do seem to be the best in the area, several of the instructors are very good, and two in particular are GREAT. Those two are truly good guys who know their stuff and better yet, know how to teach that stuff to others.
Have a possible gig set up with Sherman Bros. in Oregon. Wanna go flatbedding. Wish me luck...
PS, great site!
