If you want to get the fuck out of where you’re at it’s a logical option. A lot of these places will train you, feed you, house you and waiver the tuition after you drive for them a year or so. Most of those are OTR. On the Con side, there’s to many things that will stop your wheels from rolling, traffic, equipment issues and so on and freight comes before the driver. It’s musical trailers at times which isn’t making you any money. But you have a cdl now and you go home get local, dedicated or regional route and do pretty good.. which is what the people who trained you wanted anyway. Most just want to sell you a truck with there walk away/ lease purchase program. I was lease purchase my first year out and had to away when my clutch went out in Sacramento. 5000 smakeroos. I told the company I couldn’t do it, they said alright and I switched over to company. Long story short, my dispatcher said that he couldn’t get his company guys miles. It all goes to lease purchase and teams. Technically they could a truck a few times over and probably do. About 800 a week and then I got good cut but you can never stop.
