I have worked in factories for over 25 years and my wife for about 10. It is a time for a change. We are now fully committed to a truck driving life. We start CDL training the first week of June. We plan to work for Schneider. Our goal is becoming team drivers and selling our home and hitting the road. We plan on getting all the experience and miles we can for at least a year but more likely more. We plan on buying a fifth wheel or travel trailer to live in on our days off. We are putting all our eggs in this basket and are hoping nothing goes wrong.

Best company for husband /wife team?
Good question. My wife and I are also starting the same journey. We start CDL school in June. We are also in the middle of choosing a company to work for. (isn't it great to have so many choices?) The top runner for now is Schneider. However we are not finished looking. Any facts or opinions will be helpful from anyone. We have read thru the Truck Driver's Career Guide and found it very useful. One thing we have learned from here and had reinforced by other sources is we will never lease a truck.
