    Looking to get into trucking after 10 yrs in the insurance industry. But would like to know my options to have a smooth transition. Any trucking company schools that will pay while I train, and have a high cents per mile after graduation and going live? Im in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area in Texas. I even heard of going thru a community college as a option and applying for pell grant. Open to suggestions on good companies.

    I wish I could help you out more, but @Chinatown knows a lot about all of that stuff :) I’m sure there are several options.

    Community College is a very good choice. A dozen or more company choices at graduation.
    For trucking company in-house training, I'd look at:
    Western Dairy Transport - www.wdtmilk.com
    FFE (Frozen Food Express) - www.ffeinc.com

    High cents-per-mile doesn't mean much if the company doesn't have good accessorial pays.
    I was knocking down $65K working for .36 cents-per-mile and working 11 months a year, because the company had excellent accessorial pays.
