    You sound like you got a good head on your shoulders. Go with CFI and learn trucking and the business for a year or two.
    Then you can decide if going the owner operator or staying a company driver.
    Some of these guys get on here and want to jump right into owning there own truck, the rest is just easy peasy, they figure out it’s not all peachy!

    CFI OTR will give you the opportunity to run the roads and learn safety and trip planning.
    Will you be pulling reefers or dry van?
