    Hello all.....I am new to this so please bear with me... I am thinking about switching over from van to either flatbed or tanker, however I dont have the best record. I have a dui that will be 5 yrs old in like 3 weeks, and I have only been driving as an o/o for about 9 months. no accidents,incidents,nothing bad on dac or psp. I know alot of companies would like you to have at least 2 yrs otr experience, however I was wondering if any of you may have any advice or know of any companies that may be willing to train me?? I know CRST will, however I have also heard not so good things about CRST ( I dont know if its true or not though ). I am not too picky, I would just like to make good money, have as less hassle as possible and make sure i get trained properly wether it be flatbed or tanker. Any advice or info would be greatly appreciated.

    also is there anyone currently leased on to CRST that are not involved in a lease purchase? I'm hoping that someone who is leased on with CRST with their own truck can give me a little more insight about the company.... thanks in advance.
