    after reading this entire thread sounds to me you don't know what you want.Like someone else stated earlier I really don't think you know what you want.Like most of you new breed steering wheel holders I don't think you really want to drive a truck you are just in love with the idea of being a big time truck driver.listen as many people have said on here B4 this is not a job it is a lifestyle.yes you need to make money to live and these days it takes a hell of a lot of it.but if you ask any veteran drive why he stayed in trucking he will probably tell you that is all he knew his entire life,or like myself I can't stand to have walls around me or have someone physically watching over me all the time.this job is not about the big time money,or how fancy or fast of a truck you drive it is merely a life of which few have a tolerance for.as someone stated earlier crap or get off the pot.Truckin' ain't sissys

    Most will hire out of Pensacola, but if you live in Mary Ester to Apalachicola you are out of luck.

    Yes I am in PCB

    I can also add Shelton and Hanna, but both require 1 year of flatbed experience.

    My problem in no recent experience. I have 2 years in the last 10!

    Both Armellini and Windy Hill are hiring right now. They take students. These are also both higher paying driving jobs because they run foliage and have multiple drop loads. Also with Armellini the max they stay out is 5-7 days. They make all their drops, grab a load and head back to FL for another foliage load.
