Panhandle of Florida/Alabama

I have posted question on here before, but thought I would start a thread and group them all in one place to expedite getting all the answers. Im in school in Milton, FL (Pensacola). Im going to go with TMC. I have done my research and have 10 years of pre-requisit training(USMC).Im going to go with TMC and just want to get a little idea of how it will work being from the region I am. Ive heard they are, or have , started a new Route/Division in Florida. Is this true. What kind of traffic and what direction(of travel) can I expect. Does anyone know if there is a Trainer in this area.

None of this is really that important, but Im trying to decide if I should go Line or Long. I have a family, wife and 4 kids(13->1.5). I know Im gonna miss them, but I plan on busting my hump for a year or two paying my dues and then trying to get home more.


Any advice or info would be great. Thanx!
