Hey Shane, you can only drive Intrastate until you are 21. Most companies won't touch you until you are 23. An exception is a farmer/construction type operation that requires a driver for their equipment. Usually that type of job means you are a combo guy, IE, driver/laborer/grunt etc. I would say look around your area and see what opportunities are available before you go to truck school and spend money. You may have to wait a few years to start training. Jimmy
