    Hello, I am new to the Trucking Forums, and I hope to find some good info here.

    I am interested in starting a careerer in trucking. I have thought about this for sometime now. I have a good license no CDL as of yet.

    I would be looking to find info on either going to School for the CDL on my own or having a company pay for it. I am just not sure what way to go here?

    I am not sure who is good to work for or who to stay aay from, so I hope to find that info on here too.

    I wish all of you a Merry Christmas.

    Bob

    Welcome to TTR, Bob. Glad you wandered in. There are several threads on schools, and also many threads on good starter companies. So have a look around, I'm sure that you will find the information you need to get started. Good luck and keep us posted on your decisions.

    Thank you folks for the welcome, I am sure it will take a while to read thru everything here. I am open for any tips or pointers for a new guy.

    To give a little insight, I am in my 40's single, no kids, no wife. Not affraid of being out on the road for a while. I would just like to get home from time to time to ride my Harley.
