    I want to bust my ### and get as much experience as I can for a few years and then go from there. I don't want to change employers every few months. I want the opportunity to get home here in San Antonio.

    I spoke to a clueless recruiter at Stevens today...

    How much do you need to make for the 1st year?
    In San Antonio you can "start out" running local, after a year LTL companies will hire you.

    Ok.

    If OTR isn't what you're looking for, give R+L a call. They are what we call an "LTL" carrier. They have a terminal in San Antonio and use some class C trucks for guys starting out.

    No, I think not.

    Some people are in fact terrified of tankers, particularly gasoline tankers.
