    I've worked a 17 hour day more than a few times because of the 7/3 split rule.

    Working for a mega I worked 14 hour days a lot. Hell I do where in at now trying to bring up my income

    Heavy equipment is more expensive but it's a lot wider of a field.

    I can personally promise - this school is great and they did right by me.

    PTDI Certification
    Only 2 students per truck. Tons of time driving on the road and backing. You test in the same trucks you train in, and you test on their private property (for the backing portion) so you get to hit the test backs over and over and over.
    Room and board included in the cost of the school.

    Not too far a drive from you either imo. Don't be turned off that it's a tiny little town. You're there, focused- in a furnished apartment for only 1 month- and then BOOM CDL-A in hand and a PTDI Certification which is nice to have.

    And compared to the schools I was looking at in Tulsa and okc, the price is right imo

    State fair community College in Sedalia. Clement driving academy in Lebanon. OTC use to do a cdl program by Ozark but I don't know if they still do. $4500 to $ 6,000 seems to be the going rate for Missouri.

    This is only my second post on this forum and I’ve gotten great feedback both times! What a great community you have here!

    I hadn’t really considered looking around to the small towns in Missouri. I was just going by what was close and/or ones that I’d received personal recommendations on. I like to look at all the possibilities.

    Thanks!!!

    I’ll second Crowder. I went thru there in Feb 2020. Good instructors, mostly old CFI tractors. No clue on cost, CFI paid for it all, but it DOES include accommodations and meals.
