    To answer the O/P's original question/statement, training companies like Knight and dozens of others each have their own "spin" on things. Some might supply transportation and lodging, some might supply transportation and a meal a day (lodging on you). Some might be all inclusive. food, lodging, transportation, training, and a brand new cap. They are all just a bit different.
     
    Bob Dobalina, Thull and bigounce Thank this.

    I drove for Knight during their transition from "2 years experience required" to just another horrible CDL mill. Yes they train for a reason. They are a bottom feeder and no driver with any experience would further themselves by working for them.

    They're a horrible company but 90% of their drivers leave thinking that's how trucking is. It isn't anywhere close to that. As long as you can see the light at the end of the tunnel you should make it.
     
    Thull, bigounce and Bob Dobalina Thank this.

    Just remember no matter what company you research on here someone will have something bad to say about it. What one person hates in a company might work for you. Knight was on my list until I found out they did team training and at that point they were off it but only for that reason. Aside from that they seem like a decent company.
