Anyone here gone to or is currently attending WyoTech for Diesel?
I am planning to move there after I finish school here in Florida for their Diesel Program. Just seein if anyone has any input about the program or even the town of Laramie, Wy. Just tryin to get a feel of whats there, Or isnt. And possibly make some connections for info in the future.

I actually had a chat with a career mechanic who suggested I stay away from the bigger/more expensive schools, as he saw that they really didn't give an edge.
I'm interested to see what is said.

Half the kids that go to Laramie say " This town only has 3 stop lights" The other half say "This town has THREE stoplights!"
If Wyotech has the Best Diesel programs in the country, I must be one of the best Diesel mechanics in the country as I found the program pretty easy. Although I know a lot of people didn't.
However that being said, Having that slip of paper was a big help in getting my current job and they have a pretty good job placement program.

Thats what U wanted to hear., I know it'll be a culture shock for me since Im moving from Orlando pretty much to the middle of no where. As far as the program I know quite a bit about Dmax's and I am currently in a 2 year AYES Automotive program here and Co-Op in a Chevy dealer. So as far a mechanics go I can hold my own, but I wanna specialize in Locomotive or Heavy Marine Diesel.

If you like the outdoors Laramie is a great place to live. Your surrounded by Mountains and Snowy Range ski area is only 40 miles away. The Snowy Range is a nice place to go hiking if you can handle the altitude. Laramie is 7000 ft above sea level and if you drive over the Snowy Range to Saratoga you'll be up over 10,000Feet. It will take you a while to get used to the altitude.
If you like the cities Fort Collins is about an Hour and a half away. Cheyenne is about an hour away.
