    Aah yes this is true. I just meant that a year or so of experience may help before getting into tankers.

    Just an update... after a bit more research, I've decided to submit an application with Prime Inc. Recruiter said the background check is squared away, now just pending work history verification... Studying myself to sleep!

    Wish me luck.. since from what I've heard, getting a tanker trainer isn't so easy.

    That's the plan Chinatown. Think I'll settle for flatbed otherwise. But I'm hoping my location will allow for OTR or at least Regional in the tanker division.

    Pretty sure Prime has Northeast regional tankers.

    I start orientation on the 5th of June. Maybe I'll make a new topic outlining my experience. Thanks for asking.

    Upon further research, it looks like a regional spot would require me to lease a truck, which is simply not in the plans. With that said, if everything works out I'll most likely be going solo OTR.
