    No I did Troops to Transportation. It was the CDL School out of Miami. But I went to the Ft. BENNING campus.

    Do you know what maneuvers you have to perform on the test out there? I wonder if it's the same as here, if I remember correctly it was

    Pre trip
    In cab
    Serpentine/straight back
    Alley dock
    Parallel park
    Blind side parallel park
    Then the road test

    I knocked everything out the first try besides the serpentine which is supposed to be the easiest one, took me two tries

    Only one we didn't do was serpentine. Blind slide parallel got me. Took me two tries.

    Didn't have to blind side but it's easier to do in a day cab but I'm so use to doing it sight side. Funny thing is I barely knew how to drive a sick let alone a 8 or 10 speed. But test time I was double clutching that ? .I glide/float thru then gears now. But the trucks I drive now are automatic I love it. The hell s with sitting in rush hour traffic pressing the clutch in I just to ease up a couple of feet

    Yeah I didn't really know how to drive a stick before I came here. Only time I drove one was in Iraq. We had this little Iraqi jeep on camp we use to push around. I taught myself to drive it so I wouldn't have to walk around camp. That was in 05 tho.
    I thought I would be a tough guy and want a manual when I get to a company but nah ? that. Let me get that auto.
