Paid CDL Training, almost too many options

Hi all, as the title says I've been looking into paid CDL training and found enough options to overwhelm me. At the moment I'd consider going to Roehl depending on what they say about me being an hour out of their hiring area. Otherwise I think Wilson Logistics might be a close 2nd. I'm just wondering if I missed a better option somewhere in my searching.

I have a clean record, no tickets, accidents or anything like that that would cause an issue. Located in the SE corner of SD if that makes much of a difference.

Only specifics are my current obligations mean the entirety of the training period would have to be paid some amount, not just once I'm in the truck on my own. I could make Wilson's $200 a week for the first few work, I eat pretty cheap.

Not necessarily a dealbreaker since I'm not sure it'd be the best idea in my first year, but the option to bring a pet along would be a major plus. One dog around 60 pounds. I'm fine with having to pay a deposit or whatever to have him.

Of course the higher the CPM the better, but I make $10.50 an hour right now so most anything would be better than that.

Other than that I can't think of any other specifics I'd be worried about.

 

I'm about an hour from Sioux Falls. Leaning towards either reefer or dry van, at least until I get my first year in. Definitely willing to give tanker a shot once I'm settled in.

 

From what I was reading it's more like a cash advance. Thing I saw on their site said up to $200 per week for 2-3 weeks while you drive on the permit. Then you pay it back $25 per week once you get your CDL.

 

Thanks, I'll give them a look. One of the other ones I'd looked into was MCT, the school they use is close enough to drive back and forth from home. Only concern with them is the Comcar bankruptcy, I'm not sure how that'd effect me if I were to apply. Their site mentioned everything's being sold and for most of the drivers it should continue business as usual though, so I might be worried about nothing.
