Profile For Kyle M.

I plan on going tanker after a year or so doing dry van. I was a fuel hauler for 3 days and liked the way people appreciated when you showed up. But insurance company told my company I didn't have enough experience to stay. Long story short reading on here has made me decide to get more then 3 months experience to pull unbaffled tankers. Trucking truth is one of my favorite places to come and read. Stay safe drivers

Any news ?

Good luck drivers on getting your cdl. I already have mine but have been out of the game awhile dealing with family and personal issues. Plan on starting back up at Schneider after new years maybe well see each other some day. Look forward to hearing about the rest of your training. Be safe out there

Wanted to wish all the past current and future drivers here a merry Christmas and happy holidays. I am home getting ready to start over the road after the holidays. Everyone stay safe out there

I'm going to be starting with Schneider not long after the new year as long as things go as planned. I have heard nothing but good about them. Cant wait to see more updates. Be safe driver

That was my plan is do dry van for 6 months to a year and then decide from there if I want to switch divisions or not

As long as every thing goes ok I will be starting with Schneider trucking after the holidays. Was going to go around September but had some family issues come up so had to delay them. Was thinking of going tanker but changed my mind back to dry van until I have more experience under my belt. Will keep yall updated as things progress

I hadn't even thought about none baffled tankers. Definitely gonna consider that before I make a decision. They have box regional also where I'm at.

I'm thinking about going to Schneider also they have regional tanker where I'm located also. I was approved for everything about 2 months ago but had some stuff come up that prevented me from going back over the road at that time. Best of luck to you and hope all goes well

Any update ? Haven't heard from you in awhile hope all is good

Yes C.T. you are the driver I was referring too. Glad you seen this

One big difference is flatbed is home like 99% percent of weekends if you chose the regional glass is a minimum of 2 weeks out but they told me they prefer 3-4 for glass and they go in and out of Canada. There is a maverick driver on here that could explain more im sure but I can't think of his name right now.

Ok that makes sense it's defintley I would check out before I made anything official

Can someone explain the difference briefly in a w2 job and 1099 ? I know w2 is like a company employee is a 1099 a contractor or something ?

Sorry I meant to say trailer not tanker

I believe it's w2 and he uses our state job agencies to look for people but I've never discussed all the details with him

That was kinda my thought on it also. I actually know a person who owns a truck and hopper bottom trailer that is sometimes looking for drivers I'm not sure if he is currently or not but he's told me before he'd be more then happy to hire me when he has an opening

Hello all what is everyones opinion on getting experience in a hopper bottom trailer ? The job would be out 5 days home 2 driving a hopper bottom trailer to and from farms

I'm defintley going to look at all the info you posted

Also g-town I do truly appreciate the help. And do look foward to your reply if you do. I am sorry once again for coming off mean
