    A big howdy and yeehaw to everybody on the board. The name's Scott and I hail from Little Rock, AR. I'm in truckin school currently.. a week tomorrow to be exact. Thanks to this board and others like it I've already learned what companies to stay away from. So to show my appreciation, I figured I'd join and get acquainted!

    Thanks ya'll. I'm going to Diesel Driving Academy. It's actually an accreditted school instead of one of these 3 or 4 weekers. The way it looks, I need to stay away from all the companies doing prehires lol werner, swift, usa truck, stevens... covanant seems hit or miss and tmc might not be bad, hear they're pretty anal tho. Where you at on the gulf coast oldnewbie? I was staying in gulfport not too long ago
