    Did you drive truck in the army? If so, I hope you are planning on using a reputable company for there training. the last "ARMY TRUCKER" (self claimed) I met only drove an automatic and went thru construction zones at 15 MPH on the highway. He also took out a Light pole in a parking lot in training. Not to discourage you but its alot different when not in the army.

    how cheap are you working for? no offense but most guys who get out of the service seem to work for peanuts in this industry. i understand that every1 must start somewhere but please educate yourself and learn the business. dont think like a so called truck driver. think like a business man
