    Got a couple months before I can leave this starter company so already looking to bounce. 4 more months till I hit my year mark and have no tickets accidents or preventable on my record.

    What makes the most money? I’ll go get whatever endorsement i need currently have none. Im pulling dry van now but I’ll switch to whatever brings home the most. Im on track to make about 55k my first year OTR

    so hopefully I can double that my second year so help me out.

    Plenty of good companies for Charlotte drivers.
    I thought you started driving a few years ago.
    Do you want local/regional/OTR?
    `
    As @D.Tibbitt posted, cyrogenic tankers pays really well.
    Also the line haul outfits, such as Old Dominion

    I did worked for TMC in 2013 for a couple months but quit because a family emergency now I’m back at it in 2021

    I forgot to mention I have an automatic restriction on my license. My current company only has auto trucks and I went through their in house school

    Maybe a local school in Charlotte can refresh you on a stick shift and get that auto restriction dropped.
    You can also call the companies we recommend to you and ask if the restriction is ok.
