Everyone here has pretty much offered you the good, bad, and indifferent about the blue screw. So here's my .02 worth.....

I have never pulled for them nor will I ever, I have spoke to many of their drivers and some seem very happy (mostly were dedicated route drivers) and others re-enforce what has been posted here about crappy pay, road support, etc.

If the economy prevents you from getting your CDL on your own and you must use a training company's program to get it, I would suggest you shop around as I am sure there are better options. Just keep in mind that if you get your CDL through a company program you will more than like be on the hook for at least a year with them. In other words, if you leave or are terminated, you may be required to pay back part or all of the inflated cost of the CDL. Be sure to read the fine print before you sign on the dotted line.

Best of luck to you! :thumbsup:

Oh, and one last piece of advise......no matter where you decide to go, STAY AWAY from any Lease offer they have. Do a search on here and read the countless threads about it and you'll understand why.

Agreed. Dedicated is the way to go.

I didn't know we had lease offers... I DO know that Fleet Sales is always sending us advertisments (mostly over the Qualcomm) to BUY trucks, but I never saw or heard anything about leasing.
