    I still have my class A, but I haven't been driving for about 15 years. Only thing I think I will need to practice on will be backing.
    Any recommendations, I don't mind having to go over the road at first.
    Would prefer to avoid the Northeast

    Also I will probably be moving to Missouri, probably near Kansas City, within the next year and would prefer local or regional then.
    Thanks

    Abilene Motor Express hired a driver that hadn't driven in 20 years. They're a decent company.
    Foodliner has a couple terminals in Kansas City; probably go local/regional there.
