    I don't know where you live but in Chicago, home every day, and you are not going to make even near the wages they make.

    Cost of program paid to the school is $2,451.00. There are a couple of additional charges though. You are required to get a background check and a DOT Physical prior to attending, they have relationships with a couple of places for those and it adds about $100.

    carpenter, pipe fitters, plumbers, electricians, the guys I know are home daily, and make more money than you could driving a truck, especially if you new at it. Pennies for truckers.

    All fine and dandy when you live in a major metro area. Nothing like that available in very rural areas like I live in. You either are a farmer or work for 12/hr in a factory. I hope that stupid comment wasn't directed towards me.

    I agree there are pennies if you're starting with a mega. That's why I'm avoiding them.

    Look, I started driving, you didn`t even exist yet. I made Great Muney, and still do. Im going on 43 years doing this. I can retire any time I want, but as long as there paying me GREAT MUNEY, im here for a little bit longer. Now how bout you, $300- 500 a week to live in a truck, they take more out on taxes than you make, in a week, or do you get that ever 2 week pay.
