Not that simple, this is a tough nut to crack, if your not prepared this business will break you quick. Fleet Owners don't just hire you because your breathing, you'll have to be accepted by their carrier. And no carrier is the right or wrong fit for a driver, they all do the same job, but have different ways of getting it done. Some drivers like a large carrier or maybe a small carrier is a better fit? You won't know till you try some on for size.

Unfortunately they may be good with vans but complete jerks about the tractor trailer

As a solo in a straight your probably not gonna be running wide open. Expect to do some sitting between loads this isn't the same as running big tractors in ltl or tl. That is a tuff thing for alot that try to make the switch, they can't handle the sitting.
