    No experience with either one. Freymiller has a good reputation, and I believe that Prime has a set training program that you have to complete whether you need it or not so I would lean towards freymiller.

    Thanks I appreciate it
    I got accepted to both but I am leaning more towards freymiller. 6-8 weeks of training. While prime is 40-50k with trainer. also no contract with Freymiller
     
    Speed_Drums, Bud A. and Redtwin Thank this.

    Thats good money. Food grade was a baby step in trying tankers. I have hazmat and twic etc so the next step is to put those to good use in a better paying segment. I am new to tankers so would probably be best to get a year in here before moving on.

    I will have to look into kag and see if it works with a FL driver. I don't mind staying out 6-8 weeks so maybe that will appeal to them.

    If you have at least one year of current Cdl a experience, a clean Mvr and decent references Kag will consider you and right now we need drivers for Co2. You can live anywhere in the lower 48 and take truck home or fly home(paid) after cryo training. You must be willing to stay out 21 days then you are eligible for five days home.
     
    Bud A., Redtwin and dwells40 Thank this.
