    Take what you can get.
    I think Pam runs teams and Stevens Transport runs solo after training period.
    Just get started and in a few months you'll have a great career started.

    Yes, with no air ride or power steering.
    Air conditioning was very weak and didn't do much at all to cool.

    Try cdljobs.com. It can narrow your search.

    Yeah honestly the driver solutions guy I talked to seemed sketchy. I’d heard about pams teaming thing and asked if I could go solo and he seemed sketch in his answer
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    May trucking has a terminal in Pensacola. It was a good starter company for me, and their equipment is great. But like any starter company, get the experience, then move to greener pastures. They do not have a training school, but they will accept you if you have a class A cdl.

    Look up Florida's government grants. If you qualify, the state will pay for your school to attend TDI in Milton.
