Hey all

Takin a min here to say hey before I start asking the many, many questions I have. My names Tyler, I just got my class A about 5 months ago. My company paid for my school to put me in a back up driver position for our shuttle runs. It's all very local, about two mile runs between our manufacturing and distribution centers. It's not a bad gig, the down side is that I don't make much , and I'm not getting the experience that I'd like. I've been visiting this site for the past few months and it's been a great source of wisdom, and just decided to join and learn from everyone's collective knowledge! I look forward to talking with many of you, and thank you in advance for your help.

 

I talked to maverick when I was in school, they sound like a quality outfit. I've also been looking at falcon transport, they don't pay as well as a lot of the bigger guys, but they take people right from school and offer dedicated runs.

 

Cool thank you, I'll take a look at them too. I've been thinking a lot about if I want to go flatbed or van. It sounds like ohio is a great place to do flatbed, there's a lot of work. And I was thinking that if I start with flatbed and don't like it I'll still have the driving experience. Does that make sense or is it harder to go from one to the other?
