Top notch isnt exactly the words i would use but they are small and very personalized so everyday you will get lots of drive time and will make sure your reasy to pass you road test. Pretty laid back and easy to work with too.

I looked at NTTS and found that due to class size you might get 1 hour of driving on any given day and your going fir 2-3 months and 10k out of your pocket.

I agree with the options of going private first. I like to research what im doing and figured by being at a school there are people there that have been in the industry to help make my beginning decisions more informed and ultimately fit me better.

When do you start training and with who.

Let me add i do understand tow truck is not flatbed, but i dont mind getting my hands dirty is all i mean. I know there is extra work involved with flatbed and thats ok with me, having driven alot in various fields i know its nice to get off your @$$ and do something (helps keep the gut down a little lol). I did vehicle repo for a year and man there was alot 10-12 hr straight driving days which was fine too.

Thanks for the quick response. I was curious about the canadian companies and what they are like in comparison to the US ones. I would think not much different but we all know where "ass u me ing" gets ya. How is it crossing the border in and outta canada PGT does freight up there too. Also I will have my enhanced license and I hear ya make a little more for crossing and having the option always helps with doors, but is it more hassle than its worth dealing with the border.

One other thing is that I do like the idea of running flatbed. I have 3 yrs driving tow truck and used to securing my loads and such

Hi all,

Ive been reading threads on here for about a month and have to say THANK YOU to everyone this site has the best info and members anywhere.

Ok so i have 3 more weeks of cdl school at BTTI in buffalo NY (hamburg) I have been doing lots of research and already have a pre employment letter from PGT for their flatbed division and wondering of any other companies with lines in my area that hire us noobs.

Thanks in advance Dan
