I think you chose the worst time of the year to apply, that's probably the only reason you didn't get it. If this was the height of the busy season they'd probably send you a plane ticket immediately.
I would call every two or three weeks. Keep callin. Sooner or later they'll bring you in. Sometimes getting what you want in this industry feels like pounding a square peg through a round hole but I think in this case the peg is round - it's just a bit too big around. Tight fit. Keep hitting it - it will go.
I totally agree with Brett, probably just the time of the year. If you really want it just stay in contact with them and you will get in.

TruckingTruth was founded by Brett Aquila (that's me!), a 15 year truck driving veteran, in January 2007. After 15 years on the road I wanted to help people understand the trucking industry and everything that came with the career and lifestyle of an over the road trucker. We'll help you make the right choices and prepare for a great start to your trucking career.
Becoming A Truck Driver is a dream we've all pondered at some point in our lives. We've all wondered if the adventure and challenges of life on the open road would suit us better than the ordinary day to day lives we've always known. At TruckingTruth we'll help you decide if trucking is right for you and help you get your career off to a great start.

Hey Daniel, first of all, I appreciate the "sir" on my post but it is not necessary. We are on a first name/initials... of my handle... basis.
You are wise beyond your age and that will pay off soon enough. I will just say that every rejection gives us an experience that will come in handy down the road. Use what you know to get where you want to be and you will get there.
