    That depends on....

    • What kind(s) of freight are we talking about?
    • How much CDL class "A" experience do you already have? With what type(s) of freight (if any)?
    • Is your driving record clean? Any accidents/tickets in the last several years?
    • Any criminal history (beyond traffic citations) in the last several years?
    • What CDL endorsements do you now have (if any)?

    Try being a Walmart company driver, driving a Walmart truck.
    The ads have "Average $110,000.00 per year.
