Video of the Sonoran Desert Phoenix AZ Just north of Phoenix AZ lies the Sonoran desert where temperatures can range from 110-125 degrees in the summer. During the evenings temps don't cool off much. During the peak of summer evening lows will still range from the upper 90s to low 100s. Make sure to subscribe and leave a like on this video. Instagram: arizona_skyz?hl=en Email: ar...
Thank you awesome tips 👍
Thank u very much What company u work with now?
So you didn’t tell us what trucking company you picked to work for?
Do u pay for extra help if you fail?
No they will work with u until you pass!
Great video... Straight to the point. I'm a little west of Phoenix, so I'll be checking them out 👍
I was told that I could get a local driving job right out of school, is that what you experienced with Southwest?
Hey Richard, yes so you’ll have job placement for life. If u ever need something the school will place you or give you options to choose from!
I came across you video as I was looking into the school. Just curious on how much mechanical skills are needed or is it more just common sense stuff..?
Hey brotha I know it may sound scary. I thought so too. I knew absolutely nothing about mechanical stuff. You don’t need to know anything. They will teach u everything. Let me know if I can help
I’m starting my 3rd week on Monday there who was your instructor?
My instructor is no longer there. He moved on right after Our group passed our cdl. You got this brotha!
I’m from Avondale, starting school in a couple months with southwest (maybe). I love the rookie POV. Maybe investing in a GoPro (mainly talking about the audio) will suffice but for me I love to see rookies blapping away! Maybe even day of the life, showing us rookies your experiences, dropping loads off. Love the content, I would love an audio upgrade and to see some yard work. Sticking around, see ya!
How much did school cost? What line of work did you do previously?
I think it was about $5000 it took 4 weeks to complete. Had a great time at southwest. Good ppl fun environment! I did automotive painting previously. Just wanted to get my cdl and get some experience due to the fact of if I ever needed a fall back I would have something! Best decision ever
when you finish with school do they send you OTR or can you choose to do locally
Hey Anthony once your out of school, You get to choose the company of your choice. And that company gives you options.
@@joshslife5731 sweet thanks for the reply ! Are you still trucking ? If so how’s it going
I was sick and left but I’m back at it and love it!
Thanks Josh, I really needed this review, do you think the weekend classes would be useful or the gap of 5 days every week will affect the learning curve?
Stay away from Phoenix Truck Driving Institute. I'm there now and its the absolute worst place on earth.
Why do you say that? I'm trying to decide between phenoix and Southwest but don't want to get screwed over. I'm looking to start soon with either one so I'd like to hear more about your experience
@@J.NOBODY.1 before you choose a school go there and talk to the students. DO NOT TAKE THE RECRUITERS WORD! Go speak to the students. I paid for a 3 week class at Phoenix Truck Driving Institute and about 5 weeks in I started to complain. There wasn't very many cash students there, maybe 3 of us out of 180 students. The rest were on grants. First... none of the instructors get along. You will see drama everyday while they're busy backstabbing each other. Then the admin in the building don't get along. It's a very hostile environment. Now for the learning... you will be so overcrowded that you MIGHT get one turn a day to practice a maneuver. You will sit there all day in a lawn chair for 6 hours just to get 5 mins behind the wheel to try and park a semi. It's ridiculous. Once you can leave the range and go on the road in the truck you might get 1 time a week. They put you in the truck with 4 students total. Each one will drive 20 mins and then back to the range. It was so bad I had to buy a spy cam and record the instructors and admin talking about how they were putting students on the back burner if a customer came in with more money. My class was 3 weeks and $3400 because I already had my permit. They had companies coming in paying $5k cash per student and we all got bumped to the back of the line. Once I recorded these vids for a week I drove down to their headquarters in Tucson and confronted them with it. I told them I would go to DOT and the place that issues the grants and report them. 4 days later they tested me and gave me my cdl. Worst experience ever. I shouldn't have to go all secret agent just to get what I paid for. My class was 3 weeks but ended up being 6. Would have been longer had I not taken an aggressive approach to make them honor the agreement. Southwest and Roadmasters does not crowd their classes. You actually get to drive. I even heard that a couple weeks ago Phoenix Truck Driving Institute was busted giving out cdls for cash without students even showing up. That's a rumor but I wouldn't doubt it. Best thing you can do is go talk to the students standing around away from the admin and instructors to get an honest assessment.
@@HotOneRecordz I really appreciate that. I had gone to seen phenoix trucking about 2 weeks ago and they seem way to pushy to get me into the program right away. When I asked about tuition assistance they told me I basically had to pay out right for the school and they didn't offer any financial assistance. I didn't get a chance to ask any students when I was there but someone else I talked to recently said they had a similar experience. But I'm gonna go see the southwest school in person. I'm leaning towards southwest. Sorry for your terrible experience. Especially when your fork out that much money and get treated like that it's ridiculous. Recruiters always want to force you into the school. Talking to the students is the best way to find out all the information.
@@J.NOBODY.1 same im talking to southwest right now, trying to enroll, i think southwest offers grants, im looking into that.
When are you going to post more videos?
Yes the wind can be strong just pay attention as much as possible (I am a Greyhound Bus Driver), beautiful country. My hat is off to you as a new truck driver, I plan on doing the same getting my CDL A shortly. Much success to you, continue to be safe.
Thank you John!
I'm waiting to be scheduled to training program. I can't wait to be there and get my CDL soon. Be safe!
It’s a great school. While you wait, study download the app (cdl test genie)
@@joshslife5731 Thank you! What company do you work for? Are you a OTR driver?
Werner I do the family dollar acct. I posed a video of one of my trips. Subscribe and follow along I’ll be doing a video soon of the actual acct
I appreciate this review, I am going in Mon to get a tour and info. This is a nice way to get familiar with the routine, it'll make taking in the info on site a little easier and less over whelming.
Nice
nice
