<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rroney7768, post: 4184736, member: 146850&quot;]Thanks for the replies everyone. I guess I should have started this thread with a little more info. I do not need to bring my pet along during training. She&#039;ll stay with family until I&#039;m in my own truck. As far as other priorities, I would like a company who uses APU&#039;s but, based on what I&#039;ve read on this site that would narrow my choices down quite a bit. Inverters are pretty important since I do quite a bit of work online (I&#039;m a part-time photographer and need to be able to use my laptop). There are two companies I&#039;ve already started a relationship with, Knight and Melton. If I go with Knight I&#039;ll train in their refrigerated division since they&#039;re right down the road from me and with Melton i would do a week in Tulsa for tarp and strap training and then be on the road with a trainer. The Problem with Melton is, according to what I&#039;ve read, it will be a while before I can get to california to pick up my dog. I&#039;m not really concerned about hometime since I pretty much won&#039;t have a home lol. I&#039;ll be able to stay with family when not working but I want to keep that to an absolute minimum. Anyway, I truly appreciate any feedback from some veterans out there. It seems like there are just way too many choices and far too many things to consider. I&#039;ll definitely do everything suggested above and update this thread while I progress through this adventure. Thanks again everyone <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies-vb/roundies/biggrin_255.gif" class="mceSmilie" alt=":biggrin_255:" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I should have also added that a priority of mine is that the company does driver training like its a solo truck. I don&#039;t understand why any company wouldn&#039;t&nbsp; ( other than the obviois financial factor). I&#039;m not going to learn anything unless there&#039;s a trainer right there to teach me, not a trainer sleeping while I&#039;m driving or vice-versa.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ive also got a friend of a friend who owns a car hauling company who has offered to help me out a litte in contacting some of the larger companies. From what I understand the pay is a little better?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
