    :biggrin_25520:Hello I'm so glad I found this forum. My husband and I would like to get our CDL's. So I've been researching and researching for about a month now and my head is spinning.:biggrin_25526: I still don't know which is the best way for us to go and who to go with lol. Any advice anyone wants to give would be great. We want to go OTR ofcourse and as long as we're together it doesn't matter so much how often we get home. Again any advice will be appreciated I'm all ears.:biggrin_2559:

    Not sure I can help Much.
    I am just getting started also..I was a Printer for 30 years, and Now have a chance to start a new Job at 51 years old, and have it all paid for..
    This is something I have wanted to do since I was very young, I used to ride with my uncle when I was a kid for weeks at a time, untill he started his own Company..
    I will be going to Crowder Collage here in Southern Missouri, about 30 Min. down the road from me.
    Crowder comes with VERY high marks, and is Recommended by alot of people, and trucking Company's.
    I did alot of research also, and decided on Crowder, for a few reasons, but mostly the Good reports I found, and it's very close to me..
    But they do have Dorms with there package, Including food, and everything needed while there.
    Lol..sounds like Im advertising for them, but realy Im just passing along what I have found out, and why I decided to go with them.

    Hope to see ya on the road some day.
