TDI or RoadMaster (Pros and Cons please)

Guys, I really want to go to a good training facility here in Tennessee. I have talked to a few different training facilities with Celadon being my first choice until I read some of the things on here about them and actually called the school 4 or 5 times each time on purpose getting someone different to see if I would get the same answers to questions that I thought they may be able to answer. Only one person was pleasant to talk to but really didn't know much. All the other people I spoke to were not as nice to speak to like the first recruiter and the ones at TDI and RoadMaster. The last person I spoke to there at Celadon was a recruiter with a smart mouth and nasty attitude that really didn't care if I came there or not and she didn't really seem to know much about the school. I live in TN and these two, TDI and RoadMaster, seem to be the best choices for me. So if anyone who knows real and true information about them, if you don't care, please elaborate.
I thank you for your information

 

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. @8thnote, I live about 7 to 8 miles from United and you are right they are on their stuff and all of them were nice and knowledgeable people to talk to but I don't have the $1500 to $3000 to get started and that is the only reason I didn't go with them. There was another route but with me having a Master's Degree and no military, I didn't qualify,so all was coming out of pocket. I would recommend them to anyone who would listen that wants to go to school for trucking.
@Chinatown, the companies that I know a little something about are Covenant and Us and I was thinking about going with either of them, what do you think???

 

@Chinatown, what is their pay like after their required hours and during the training with them

 

@Guardian, I know someone who worked for Venture and they did not stay long for various reasons that I would not dare go to them, big turnover rate. As far as US, I know people who work and worked for them. Some of them have completed the Lease purchasing program and own their trucks and some have had bad experiences and some of those experiences were their own faults. I saw a contract for them because I was the bookkeeper for this particular person and he really messed himself up by wanting to always take off when he wanted and sometimes didn't want to leave out when he should have. Some of the other people I know, they made a good business out of it, but of course they were serious and hungry for what they had gotten in to. I do plan on doing the required 6 months and then going into a lease purchase program. I have heard and read the horror stories, but I do know that your business will fail or succeed depending on how you run it and knowing how to not splurge when you know you can't afford it. Again guys, I really appreciate your information. Please keep it coming.
