So i've applied at and was accepted by Swift. I am to start school as soon as I give a date to leave for Phoenix, AZ for their CDL school. Then tonight I talk to someone who drives for CR England, and he seemed very level headed and informative, and told me to give CR England a try.

I was thinking about applying for CR England for the mere fact that their school is in Mira Loma, CA (about 20-30 minutes from my home) as opposed to Swift's being in Phoenix, AZ.

So I come to this forum looking for some answers and information on CR England and I found nothing but dirt on England, much like Swift... Did any of these drivers who do nothing but dirt Swift and England actually attend these schools or what?

I know this forum is full of nothing but information, but it has honestly discouraged me from this industry quite a bit! I know I want to drive a truck, but what is someone like my self who has absolutely NO over the road training and no CDL to do?

If I was to choose one or the other, what would everyone here recomend? I'm kind of at a stand still now after reading the forum quite a bit.

Someone please help!!
