I'm a 23 year old woman and choose CRST as the trucking school to go to. I had wanted to start with Schneider but they don't have their own training facility. I'll be going to their school in IA next week. I've never used a stick shift vehicle before or had the opportunity to learn; I am curious as to how difficult it is to shift with a big rig and if there are any tips you might have for me? Also, what should I focus on most while going through the school and if you have any tips there as well?
My uncle currently drives for penske and my father drove for P.A.M. and I just love driving and being on the road so this seemed the perfect job choice for myself.
