i have opted for driver solutions...they will send me to school for free and i will be placed with usa trucking on east coast and southeast runs out of michigan...i really don't see any other way to obtain the training necessary because i cannot afford it...i hope i am making the right choice because it's a 12 month contract (which in the big picture really isn't that long)...any more advice would be great...i have never done this before and am going in kinda blind...thanks again for the help everybody...
