The more I read this board the more I am glad I did what I did.
Went to the local community college and took their 6 week driving course ($1260) Learned just enough to get my CDL.
Bought a truck and trailer and took off and taught myself. Backed into my first dock on my first load.
It has been a year and 3 weeks and all is good. Have been able to put money in the bank everyweek,
I take a week off wheneverI get tired of running, No Dm, BM's or whatever you call them telling me which roads to run and where I can buy fuel. No qualcoms tracking my every move and trying to match a log book to it. No 60mph truck and watching the speedometer that it doesn't hit 70 on a hill.
3900 miles a week, everyweek with no hassles!!!!
