You know I'm a real newbie to this thing but I've been scouring through the forums and in the strictest sense of the law, from what I've read, the state troopers that COULD pull you over for any reason MAY tell you that they will base the GVWR on the axles and not your declared GVW change. Of...

Sure will read up and rehearse everything on the pre trip, but i still have to look up a friend to see if he's willing to babysit me on this CDL instruction permit. Gotcha on the oil leaks. I hope things turn out ok with the written test first this week! Thanks for the tips!!! :)

In what way is a non-commercial A/B so much different from a CDL? I went to the DMV office yesterday, and the DMV guy said that just lately the medical examination isn't mandatory anymore for the CDL. Gotcha about the rented/leased vehicle. I will contact a friend that used to do construction...

thanks zebedde, working with a local commercial business seems like a good plan B in case i don't find a CMV owner with a CDL to help out. Paying for a truck at Penske seems like a brilliant idea, a good incentive for the business owner. Genius!
