Hey y’all, I just came across a school called Lone Star Truck Driving Academy — looks like they’ve got two locations around Dallas and Mansfield. They’re advertising CDL training for about $3,000 and it supposedly includes all the endorsements.It honestly sounds a little too good to be true, so I figured I’d check here first before I get too excited .Has anyone trained there or know somebody who has? Just trying to get some honest feedback before I make any moves. Appreciate any info!
Anyone heard of Lone Star Truck Driving Academy in Dallas?

This is important; get all the endorsements! Endorsements give you more companies to choose from. Many companies require endorsements to be hired. Even refrigerated companies want drivers to have hazmat endorsement.

We also guide students through additional endorsements, permit prep, and refresher courses so you can stand out in the job market.Bumper, tscottme and spicytruckergirl Thank this. -

The school will have help on job placement and also on this, TheTruckersReport website, we can also help with job placement. We can give you a list of 10 or 15 companies that will probably hire you, in addition to what the school has to offer.
Some companies will reimburse the $3000 back to you.Bumper and spicytruckergirl Thank this. -
Oh wow, thank you @Chinatown! That actually helps a lot — I didn’t realize endorsements made that big of a difference when getting hired.
The program looks solid on paper, I just wasn’t sure if it was one of those schools that makes big promises and then disappears after you pay.Chinatown Thanks this. -
Oh, thats awesome too. I wonder if they accept workforce grant?!BrothaTrucka513 Thanks this.
