    My wife and i have six months experience OTR. We would love to do tanker. Any companies other than Schneider hire drivers with our limited experience ?

    I used to team for Jack B Kelley out of Amarillo and Logex out of Great Bend Ks. JBK is now owned by KAG and Logex owned by Trimac. Both cryogenic tanker carriers. Might give em a shout.

    Thanks for the info.

    Talked to Jack B Kelley, they need 2 years experience. They were very nice. He said their always looking for teams. Its cross country runs, drop & hook. I'm going to keep them in mind at the 2 year mark.

    Left a msg with Trimac. Couldn't find a number for Logex.

    I talked to Indian River Transport. The recruiter said that they require min 1 year experience and that you don't need previous tanker experience.

    Logex doesn't exist any more. Trimac bought them out.
