    I didn't go to their website, but, there are places where you can rent a CMV for the DMV test. It's usually a single screw day cab with a 26' flatbed. It's legal, maybe charge you $150 to "rent "it. It's for guys that maybe self train or have cousin Bob teach them in his spare time and now they need a truck for the test.

    Your lucky; WA State Requires that you bring in a Certificate that shows you have done 160 Hrs of Trng before they will give you the test. The Trng Certificate must come from one of there Approved Schools. $3000

    Yeah, every state's different. In Ca., you can just show up with a truck and take the test, even if you just got a permit yesterday. However you do need a CDL holder there with you. The exception being if you're using one of these rental trucks that are already there on the premises.

    Call around to some different companies and see if they will accept these people as accredited schooling. Just for example, if you have your heart set on a company like Crete/Schaffer/Sunflower they will only accept you if you went to a few select schools.

    So just to be sure call around to a few of the major companies or even the companies you are particularly interested in and ask them what they think of that school. You have to be careful, though most schools are legit there are those backyard CDL schools that will take your money and get you through but you won't get hired on anywhere because they aren't accredited or official.

    Just one more thing to add, maybe call up your local DMV and see who they recommend. They deal with those CDL schools on a daily basis so they should no the ins and outs and goods and bads!
