    I've had my CDL A for about 15 years.Went to school for it. Drove a class B tanker for 5 years after I got it. So I really have no experience. So wadda you guys/girls think? Full course right? Thats what im thinking. Refresher is one week for $1000 or full course 4 weeks $4500. Any companies take people with just the refresher?

    Somewhat looking for the same info so i'm subscribing! I drove local for my family from 18-21 but still about 3000 miles a week. I've been out of it for a little over a year and am looking at going OTR later this year. I'm talking to TMC and they said most likely the full course. But I also got my CDL on my own so that could be why partially too.

    You may wanna check around at some company's first--they may just be willing to put you with a trainer for a short time--otherwise they will ask for you to do a refresher course I am betting.
