    TMC, WILTRANS, and Prime seem to be my options if I do the training in house.

    Maverick Transportation
    Jones Bros. Trucking - Missoula,Montana - coast to coast.
    Contract Freighters (www.cfidrive.com) - coast to coast
    Jim Palmer Trucking - coast to coast
    Roehl Transport - dry van National Fleet runs coast to coast.
    Not all companies run coast to coast. For example, Wil-Trans stays in the eastern half of USA, but also owns Jim Palmer Trucking which runs coast to coast.

    If you can. Try to get the CDL class beforehand.
    Dummy me. I just saw two videos from Red Viking Trucker on youtube. They were from Dec. 24th 2016. Two people talking about problems they had going through company CDL school. Talked about a second company test that isn't a real State Driving Test...they can cause problems then. Another talking about just having to have it out with the so called teacher who had an attitude toward women.
    There is a non compete clause. If there is any problem. That company may try to ruin you through your DAC report.
    Go find and watch those videos. They are very good. Two people. Posted on youtube that day.
