JJ Keller makes videos for about everything, but they run anywhere from $100-$200 each.

Sounds like a great market to make one. I have found one put out by a certified Calif truck driving school instructor dealing with Swift graduates. You can go to his site at TruckEd101.com and order his pre-trip dvd for around $40+ .

His name is Shannon and I have the dvd myself since I've been off the road for many years and obviously things have changed where thats related. I thought the dvd was worth the price compared to others I came across. He also includes the state instructor's score sheet with the purchase so you know what you're dealing with.

I took a tape recorder to school with me and I recorded the instructor going through the pretrip. When I got back to the hotel room every night I'd listen to it trying to visualize what part of the truck he was pointing to. It worked for me. I even made it into a MP3 so I could play it on the PC and loop it. I still got it somewhere.
