    I was living in FL when I got hired and, because it's often a hard place to get loads out of, the company wasn't hiring drivers out of FL.

    I told them I didn't need to go home very often and would take my time off elsewhere. They hired me.

    I-55 and US 78 (future I-22), too, and I-26 keeps growing.

    Low cost CDL's in TN, too. Class A is $46 for 5 years.

    You don't need to come to Cookeville to get your CDL, either. You can get it anywhere in TN on your way through.

    All the major hubs have a drivers license office with big rig parking:

    Best,
