    In my opinion, having gone to two different truck driving schools, one being sage, and one being Roadmaster which ant the end end of 09, I can say the difference is night and day. Meaning the instructors over at Sage have more time to focus on you as you are with one other student on the range and you go on the road drives one on one.

    Someone can correct me but I believe Roadmaster was or is currently around 7000 to $8000 and Sage is only right around $5000. why spend more when you can get a better education and better learning environment for less.

    Just got word of my orientation date over at Indian River. After careful thought and consideration, I have decided to join them for a number of reasons. One being the lower safer score and the other being their extensive training program.
     
    Vic Firth and Concorde Thank this.

    So this evening session was cut short due to the fact that it started raining and everything started blowing around, including the trashcan. To make a long story short, I went and got fuel for my personal car and got some snacks for tonight.

    there is a video that one of the instructors took with my phone of me doing a alley doc aka 90° back up, and if the admin‘s approve, I can post it on here.
     
    Wendell_334 Thanks this.

    Forgot to mention that the video is going to be on Sage’s Facebook page. One thing that I want to mention is that all instructors there are very kind, caring, and very relaxed.
     
    Concorde Thanks this.

    Just post the video.. Worst case scenario is that they delete it and ban you for life :)

    Well guys, I got my certificate of completion. I headed home right around 10 AM. I made it to my doctors appointment by 11 o’clock. A special thanks to all of the instructors who gave me the one on one attention when I needed it and thanks to Sage for giving me a hat. If all goes well, I might consider teaching there in three years, which is what they require for you to teach.
