    We all know ATDS its PTDSI certified. However I wonder if its really worth it 5k. Austin CDL services offers one o one. The problem is Austin CDL services takes you to the test with Automatic Transmision and then makes you take classes with super 10 stick shift for 100 an hour?? Any suggeestions

    Does this school meet the FMCSA standards. It doesn't seem to from the description on their website. Do you know who you want to work for? If so, do you have prehires? What you need to do is ask any and all companies you are applying to, if this is an approved school.

    Who is going to get you the best job?

    Thats all that matters.

    Training on a day cab with an automatic and a 24 foot pup trailer might be great for the school....but it sucks for you the student. No one will hire you with training like that.
