    Not completely sure where you're getting you statistics from bro. It doesn't matter how trucking schools are perceived. The fact is that, if run properly, truck driving schools are very profitable. I recently left a school after 3 years. I had the opportunity to observe the inner workings of this type of concern. Your claim of a 75% failure rate is also waaaaay off. Our pass rate was over 90%. Any less than that will absolutely stop the flow of new students sponsored by Workforce, Indian nation and colleges/technical schools. I am painfully aware of the tremendous costs (insurance, trucks, housing, liability, payroll, lease, utilities etc..).
    Get on FB. Check out Arbuckle Truck driving school, Ardmore, Ok. This is the outfit I worked for. Thanks for your input.

    You don't sound prepared to have this conversation.

    We're trying. You seem to already have your mind made up and you're not willing to listen to opinions different than yours.

    Are you part of The Truckers Report Staff ?
    You said 'we' are trying. What did you add to the conversation ? I must have missed it. Any reasonable person can see I've not gotten much legitimate feedback. And yes I do have my mind made up that's why I said 'talk me out of it '.

    Well, I will probably be the last poster on this thread. Saying your mind is made up and soliciting input sends a real mixed message. If you want some better input how about starting threads on your next step in your plan like "What would professional drivers like to see taught in CDL School" or similar questions you might have.
