    Don't pay ANY COMPANY to be a driver. Work for AT LEAST 1-3 years as a W-2 employee "company driver" so your whole paycheck is profit, not the pool of money you have to pay for the truck. Someone is trying to get you to pay for a job. Don't Do It. Avoid 1099 "jobs" almost all of them are lying to the IRS to avoid paying taxes. They could be only one phone call away from getting shut down.
