    He was my uncle threw marriage about 15 yr ago and when I talked to home about it he didn't seem like he wanted to so I wasn't going to push it on him. Also he does not want to drive anymore he just wanted to put a driver in the truck and stick to being a broker.

    Yea they seem like a good company I just didn't realize that earlier because of all the negative post about them but thru my own research they look to be like a good starter company.

    Already asked and no tanker in Florida and based on information from another guy that recently started flat bed with them I'll be getting paid quite a few cpm more with reefer than flat bed. I just don't know how I feel about getting a super light weight truck though but beggers can't be choosers.

    Did you check with CTL Transportation? They might pay for cdl school and at one time had their own school in Florida. Tanker school is in Tampa and use full size trucks in the OTR division. I think their headquarters is Mulberry,FL.

    @Eager Driver - Here's from Comcar website:
    Students learn how to operate the equipment, “Value Driven” driving, Department of Transportation rules and regulations including logging trips, how to care for their equipment, company procedures and customer service. Students will be prepared to take the Commercial Drivers License test in their states. Low student-to-teacher ratios, excellent curriculums, quality equipment, great facilities in friendly towns, decades of training experience and tuition-free programs make it easy for students to learn to drive trucks and understand all the particulars of their jobs.
