As far as phones go samsung all the way I have a s4 mini and my wife has a s5 full version I wish I would have seen this post sooner. Verizon Def has the best coverage but also the biggest price ( it's worth it) if I was running a truck right now I would want the full sized phone because it makes everything easier as Brett pointed out but I like my mini for what I'm doing right now as it fits in my pocket easily ( in a truck your phone will likely be dash mounted so the bigger the better ).also as brert pointed out the samsung s6 just came out which is another top notch product and superior too the iphone in ny opinion although they did away with the external storage on these but I don't thing the iPhone 6 has external memore capabilities either (lame). Anyhow the iPhone got enough support on here for me to give a Samsung rebutte I trult believe in samsung products the Iphone was super complicated to me and the Droid can be too but the samsung phones seemed to be the easiest to learn and also performed my above wildest dreams as Brett pointed out anything will prob do the trick for u as its a new for u but whatever u learn on I phone or Droid stick to it otherwise it's just gonna drive u mad cause they are quite different in how they operate

Hi Courtney-

What you'll have to do is go to the DOT/DMW and take the 3 "written" test to get your permit. The test are General Knowledge, Air Brakes, and Combination. Once you pass all of them with an 80% or higher you can pay for your permit. There's usually no cost for the test but the permit is around 12 bucks. Good Luck!!

what this person said here in NY there was testing fees as well as permit fees so iT Def varies state to state then again NY likes to charge 3 or more times for everything

I know that bridge well,That bridge n maine is pretty awesome thankfully it's also pretry short I travel up that way often enough usually the 95 to 495 interchange is the worst part ( especially in the summer on weekends) due to traffic but with winds like today I can imagine the bridge took the cake. From what I hear the winds in Wyoming in the winter is a whole nother world though.

I'm new to this sight and also new to the industry. I failed my first road test just the other day the pretrial part was simple but the skills on road part made me nervous as could be I had only had less then 20 hrs practice behind the wheel, with a private driving school at a cost of around 2 k ( knowing what to do easy, actually doing it with a complete stranger not so much) let alone the fact that I'm pretty sure the lady giving the test had never driven a truck let alone posseseda CDL welcome to NYS ( she made me parallel park facing down a hill and used a curved snow bank as the curb) after I messed that up it was downhill. So I could use some help in this area too. The cost for me to schedule another road test (with a hour and a half same day lesson) is around 400$ with this school does that sound reasonable? I don't wanna "rain on the original posters parade but it seems I have a similar scenario.
