    It's most likely his 22 years of age thats also hurting along with his driving record. And having a " few suspensions from unpaid tickets when i was younger" sounds like you may need to make sure all your suspensions are lifted and all tickets are paid. And they check all states not just your home state... Good Luck....

    yeah I'd say your school ripped you. theys hould have told you you didn't stand much of a chance considering your record and age.

    almost every company goes back 10 years now.

    maybe something small and local, a mom and pop operation or class B stuff in dumps or mixers just to get some time in the seat.

    you can try carolina cargo out of rock hill, sc....if they won't take you, NOBODY will....they don't call them convict cargo for nothing lol....but it would be something and with your age and record you're going to be lucky with anything you get

    Tell you what, I have a 1986 Freightliner that sits out back, I use it one day a week. You can drive it until the wheels fall off, I'll give you 2000 miles a week guaranteed, as long as the truck is still running.
