Yes the closest one that offers a Diesel Technology Program.It's a short 30 miles away and is one of the best in the country.Large enough to know what they are doing but small enough to care.

True that. I had expirence on the ranch and then all thru high school i took auto classes so that helped me out alot. They didnt have to train me on the lifts or anything they could just turn me loose..... sorta. I still had to train on the motors and procedures but I'm on my own now and have no problems.

Yeah I don't get to work on diesel engines until year 2 First Semester or 2nd. But I get to work on drive-trains in the 1st semester of year 1.But I start with electrical systems.
