Pros

School was fast paced. Pay-grade looks Steep! As a trainee you'll be on salary with fairly descent paychecks. After a few weeks you'll get paid more, getting paid for trips hours and miles, the raises keep coming and pay is better than other Trucking - Schools or Companies. All of the trucks are new and Automatic (if you like that) don't have to worry about the clutch, (or double clutching,) Or what gear your in. They all have beds inside, and they are pretty nice!! Getting to see the country, getting great pay, with benefits. I'm glad I came to CR England!!!

Cons

Most of the cons, really just depends on who you are. Seems like there won't be much home time... but that's fine with me. All the trucks are New and Automatic Transmission (if you don't like that). MT driving is more fun, I ride a motorcycle and drive a Manual Transmission SUV and like driving MT sports cars as well. But other than being more Fun, there are also other benefits of Manual Transmission that pretty much, only MT drivers know about. .. IE: you won't 'worry' about which gear your in, because you KNOW you put it in second! By Taking every turn in second gear, you won't have to worry about tipping the Truck or trailer and you won't usually have to worry about drive wheels skidding in a turn... (so long as you 'Know' what your doing, that is.)
