    So I just called Big G Express, and was nicely turned away. So it is true, without 6-months recent verifiable, they will not talk to me about driving for them...it was a short call, but very professional. My next call will be with a road group that can get me a refresher, whether it is Titan as recommended by @Chinatown or whom ever. I have time though, as I do not plan to change till sometime in the first quarter of 2017.

    I'd try Titan for the refresher. Freymiller also has refresher.

    Danny Herman Trucking is dry van and doesn't run Northeast. Their website shows a "training program" so maybe that includes refresher. They're a Tennessee outfit. Their freight lanes sure look appealing on the map.

    Well, not to jack my own thread... but Titan is not returning emails or phone calls. That is a big negatory for me...

    Dragon, who did you end up going with? Any updates with the company you chose would be appreciated.

    Don't be fooled by the way big g looks an we don't have driver trainers we don't hire students
