I am looking at all options right now. Havent really talked to a recruiter yet. But I would like to know how long you have to be at prime to train.
Actually I only want to train one person and thats my wife. I think that would make both of us feel mor comfortable and be able to see if we can really stand each other in a small box for long periods of time.
Bad thing is I want to go flatbed she dont know if she can handle it. I just keep telling her it is easier with two people then one.

That sounds doable. Guess ill have to let someone else teach her for cdl then train her.
Thank you fmj.Highway101 Thanks this. -
Its been my experience that spouses do a disservice to their respective partners when they train. I have seen far too many spouses train the other person to know less than they know. Accidentally? On Purpose? By design? Not sure. It is better for both people to be trained by others.. this makes the team a little more well rounded as they each bring different viewpoints and have been trained differently and in different situations. Always better to have more and varied experiences in a truck were two heads are better than one.
Brehon, AfterShock, HorseShoe and 4 others Thank this. -

Yea im flexible on flatbe . I might just do reefer and go from there. Maybe catch up with a flatbeder and let them show her and go from there. I prefer flatbed but for her and I to be together and experience life now that the kids are grown I'll do whatever it takes.
Stll figuring out how we want to do it maybe be both at same time and team after all training is done. -
