Hondo; Good luck with your training and your upcoming road test for your CDL. The Pre-trip inspection test is most likely the toughest section. Study it well, but do not make more of it than it is. If I could make any suggestion to you it would be to reasearch the carriers - not all will be...

CMD12345; Two issues. First, check with carriers that will hire Canadians - TST and Dynamex come to my mind. Second, check with the carrier you intend to lease onto for spec'ing a truck. I hear folks say that "Most of my loads are 5,000 pounds etc...at XXXX company" At my company, most of...
