Hi everyone and thanks in advance for your help.
I'm single with no family obligations. I don't mind being out for extended periods of time and although I have no CDL I like driving. I like solitude too.
I could go anywhere in the country, I've got nothing keeping me where I'm at.
If you were in my shoes, absolute beginner, what would you do?

Is it better to just go into some specialization after CDL training (tanker or flatbed)? I was told to pursue this as quickly as possible to avoid wasting time.
