    Well today when I first turned on the TV for the first game of the NFL season. I seen an ad for Miller mont truck driving school. I know they are pretty much a trade school for other trades. don't know how well they do for truck driving as the ad said in 4 weeks you can be on the road to your new career.

    Better find out the cost,go to their website if they have one.I personally think 4 weeks is too short.

    You can go to R.E.West in Lebanon for training with no contract obligation.

    The Miller school is only 4 weeks, but that's 160 hours which is only what many companies require.

    I thought about going to Miller-Motte, but the school isn't accredited.

    Yes it is to become a professional driver....the whole purpose of ANY truck driving school is to get you the required, accredited hours of training so that you can pass the state CDL pretrip, skills and road test so that a reputable company will consider hiring you and then train you to become their driver....the skills, knowledge and hours acquired at a school are primarily for testing purposes.

    Miller-Motte is a college. They have to be accredited. I've lived in the area 27 years and never heard anything bad about them. I haven't heard anything good either but their program isn't that old.

    I hate their commercial. First they have a truck on there with a bent grille. Can't you use a pretty truck or fix it? :)

    Second the guy says soon you will be hauling a 40 ton load down the road to success.
    Duh minus the truck weight you'll only can haul 23 tons. You're teaching truck driving and don't know this? :)

    Chattanooga State use to have an excellent program. I think they moved it to their Cleveland campus.

    Either one should be good. I would favor Chatt State.

    Miller-Motte has Day classes, Night classes and Weekend classes. That makes them different, and the program price is about $2500 less than Roadmaster. Just spoke with their representative at the Chattanooga campus and he sent me an email stating that they will finance at 0%.

    And to say that Miller-Motte is not accredited is one of the weirdest things I've heard on this site. Of course they are accredited
