Equipment

We're proud to be offering our students modern and up-to-date training equipment! Currently, our equipment consists of International Prostar conventional sleeper tractors. All tractors are equipped with Maxxforce engines with 10-speed manual transmissions and are equipped with tandem axles. These tractors are coupled to 48-foot dry van trailers.

Maneuverability exercises in the yard are set up in varying degrees of difficulty utilizing traffic cones. We also have a state-of-the-art shifting and driving simulator that allows our students to learn to shift a manual transmission and practice backing up without ever leaving the classroom.
