    Hello everyone! I run local and have been at this job for the past 8 or so months. I want to eventually go otr. Some companies on their websites say "X years tractor trailer experience required" and others say "X years otr tractor trailer experience required." My local work only counts as the x years tractor trailer correct? and if i wanted to go to a company that only takes otr experince, would they even look/care if i had been local for 16 months? thanks for all the help guys.

    Most OTR companies want OTR experience. A few will accept local driving as experience.
