I'll tell you what one of their drivers told me. He said they charge you $6000 for their school and try to aggravate you while you're training so you'll quit and they can get another body in the seat. True or false??? I don't know? Check what these other guys say as that's all I've ever heard about them.

I'm telling you what one of their drivers told me. Why would he tell me a bunch of lies about something I didn't ask about or really care about? If it's not true, that's ok with me. He told me he ignored the trainer and finally got his own truck,.....that means he was talking about the company he went to work for.

He must have been talking about a private school doing that because it doesn't make any sense otherwise and still seems strange that a school would do that??
