    Well pick your poison basically. If I did it all over again I would start with either Flatbed or Tankers. You can always haul a Van or Reefer down the line with no extra training needed.

    I'm starting with tanker as well, was told was the best way to do well now and then be able to drive anything later.

    Family friend who is a driver suggested it, that it's harder and gives you more options later. Not sure myself, but i trust him.

    Where in Texas are you? You can get free cdl school from workforce if you qualify, and a lot of jobs in the metro areas pay better than OTR.
