Interested in the career

Greetings all, just discovered this forum watching some youtube videos and thought I would find it more helpful to browse here.
I am looking into going to school in Jackson,Tn maybe at the Tenn. Tech Center or making the drive to TDI in Murfreesboro, Tn. I am a Marine corps veteran, I worked in logistics (0481) and I have a little bit of experience driving a High Lift truck (I think that's what its called) up to air planes as well as Emersons, NGSL's and extended boom forklifts. I've always enjoyed the ride ( except going through Virginia, too long) and have no problem driving all night ( 12 to 14 hrs to MD or NC). I'll soon turn 27, last I checked I had a clean driving record, no felonies, no drugs, no alcohol, pretty good health. So here I am looking to get into trucking, thought about tankers but, will give it more thought. The company that keeps coming up with the best reviews across different sites and seems to stand out the best is Schneider. So as of now that's the company I am setting my eye on, I know that I should keep in mind other companies as well.
