    I'm new to the forum - looks like alot of good info. - thank you in advance to all those who have posted for great content, I have been reading through the entries and getting good insight - I had a CDL B for a couple of years and loved driving - looking at going to school to get my A w/ endorsements this month...
    Any feedback on "Roadmasters" in Tampa would be helpful as well as a good break in company to go with where I could do regional or dedicated runs in the SE...
    It looks like they have Stevens, Werner & Covenant coming in September for career/hiring meetings at the school.
    Any feedback on financing the cost of school w/ a company vs. private loans/cash?
    Again, any feedback would be greatly appreciated - thanks!

    Hello and welcome Leif!

    There are threads here about different schools and companies, you will find a lot of info from folk who have already been where you are!
    Maybe just remember though, people are quick to write a complaining post, if they feel that got a bad deal with a particular company, but they are not so quick to write about good experiences. Some of the threads can be pretty negative, and will have you wondering if there are any good companies out there!
