    They got Schools that teach this ####? Can I still attend? They say it’s never too late. That explains why I’m always struggling, and every Truck driver I’ve ever met makes more money than me.

    Some people are in dire financial straits and need a job right now.
    Some company cdl schools pay the student a salary while attending school. Yes, they sign a contract, but have the option of paying the school tuition to the company and cancelling the contract. This is prorated as to how many months you've been driving. For example, if you've been driving under contract 6 months of a 12 month contract and want to leave the company. you'll owe 6 mos or half of the cdl school cost, not the full 12 months.

    ABC Trucking forum's said only the ABC Trucking CDL school is the right place to get a CDL, and 12 months of work.?

    I’d go Community College. Might even qualify for free tuition though your State. Beware of helpful strangers. Most are Pimps looking for new Hoes.

    I got my CDL for free from a local school. Government paid for it. All I had to do was pick a school and show up. I got my CDL 4-5 weeks later. Anyone telling you that a company sponsored school is the only way to go is lying to you. Flat out.

    I went to Sage it was 3500. It's one on one training. I went to Endicott NY one. All the instructors were old school guys in their 60s
