Need help with getting cdl

Hi,heres my history and advice to you: since 1996 im a professional car audio/video/security installer ,i have 2 years in usa,nj,as that field is good and baad because here everything goes by season,i decided to be a truck driver,i went MVC my self,i pay $125 for the right to all test and permit,i got the answers of all and every single test for the CDL,i about 1 week,i past all 6 test alone ,my self in MVC,then i just got to the cdl school to get the driving lesson on the road/street,also they took me to my road test on MVC,finally i got my CDL in the first shot, CLASS A, i never figuredout my self in a truck.

second part of my history; the school recomends me a lots of BIG COMPANIES FOR TRAINING,i never agreed to do that,what i did was went to the road with a friend of mine,and get some of his advices and experience,then after that i where so locky,his boss put me in one of his trucks,and here i am,driving everyday from newark,nj,to penssilvania,masachusets,atlantic city,coneticut,etc, so far im earning good money without been struggle by a companie paid training,cause i got a couple of friends graduated from the same school,they went to 2 of those big companies,they still under training while im making the money i expected to make,so good luck my friend,if i did it,you can do it to.

hi to all of you,after recently graduate from jersey tractor trailer on june 18,i decide to not go into a train with a big company,i went to a company that thru a friend i got hired,cause i though that i could be struggle in those "big companies train' i had a friend that graduates from same school,and he went to werner xpress,he cried like a baby,they make him go all the 53 states, to get a miserable weekly wave,he lose half of his weight,and much more im not going to mention here,instead i have my own hard time learning with my trucking gps,a map,and calling my coworkers to tell me how to get to places and routs,since day 1 i went alone to what they called "/local" wich for me at the beggining was way to farway,but now i found it near,i found what seems to be imposible,get paid a fair weekly salary,sleep home everyday,work from monday thru friday,no pressure or rushing calls from my boss,and my average week is from $800-$1000,for me,new driver,thats more than i expected as a begginer.

Now,the only thing i want to know is: can i get a better income dealing directed with the broker? did it worth try to finde a good freight load,if i had the opurtunity,im planing to get a truck with a friend of mine,and finde the load thru a good freight load finder,do you know any reliable, all answer and advices are welcome,thanks in advance.

In complete honesty. If you cant answer the question on your own, dont buy a truck. Wait till you have the experience and background built up and when you can answer that question you'll know if the O/O lifestyle is for you.

Good luck to ya sir.

Wich gps to choose

hi me again,i have a 560 dezl garmin 5",wich is good so far,it didnt take to a low bridge yet,butheres an example,i parked at newark,nj,everydaymy trip is to coneticut,i now know i take I-95 north al the way until i get to Ct,of corse,depending to wich place or part of Ct i go,but my garmin afteri pass the GWB keeps telling me to take many exits on my way to CT,it seems to be many low bridges on his route/maps,wich they are not on the road at all,on my way back the problem is worst,taking I-95 south to newark,nj,the second problem is that instead of go straight to a place,it makes me to go all round to place i go,wich results in time and fuel,delays etc, my question to you is,should i buy a rand mcnally or a cobra trucking gps? i have two friends that have cobra,they said that they had them for about a year,and so far they are good,besides that i hear rand mcnally freeze,and other than that what do you think about copilot app for android,i been thinkin of that long time ago,but that trucking app is $150,waiting for your advice and sugestions,thanks.

High Road Training

Hi guys I want to add something I agree do not rush things,but,I personally before I enrolled to the trucking school,I decide to go MVC my self,and start taking all the test,,by the time I got into the school I already had my permit ready to begin the practice in the truck,after I enrolled in the school I just need to pass hazmat,so I was ahead of things ,I'm now in my 3 week of practicing in the truck,I just have to pay the fees for the finger prints $86 and I'm planing to get the TWIC card just to cover my self,again but that's me,so by the time I get my cdl,I have all emdorsment and my chances are wider to get into a good company.
