One and done

Instructors.pushed me to do better and passed cdl A on first try.

One and done at Rochester, MN

Charles and Keoni make a great and complimentary instructor team at the Rochester MN site. They provide standard and personalized training you need to be confident in your real world skills and are always happy to work through how the academics translate to the real world. They excel at bringing real-world industry perspective that goes beyond the DMV exam, for an engaging experience. Highly recommended for anyone with a determination to become a Class A driver. I came in looking to learn with a manual transmission, and they helped me both decide and ultimately achieve the unrestricted license. Thank you team Charles and Keoni!

Best CDL training school

The experience I had was the ultimate A+. The week of class for permit was packed full of information, the instructor was very knowledgeable, clear, helpful, calm, nice and experienced. The daily testing is common sense, they were very helpful. The in yard pre-trip inspection, in can inspection to the back up, offsetting and road teach is excellent with two of the best instructors I was blessed to have been taught by them, hands down with their knowledge and sharing it with love, compassion and patience. They inspire greatness and bring it out so it is felt and teachable. With the manager willing to help out and get you on the right track with encouragement and success, they all were the best I could ever imagined being taught by, wouldn't want it my training to be anywhere else than with Rochester Minnesota and with no one else with the supervisor Jeremy and the instructors Charles and Keoni. Thank you to 160 for having me and thank you to the 3 of the best guys I got the honor, privilege to spend the time with. If anyone is considering getting their CDL, please go to 160 CDL Truck Training Driving school, especially Rochester Minnesota. Guarantee you will pass as long as you do and follow their instructions. I'm proud to say I PASSED the CDL driving test "One and Done"... You will too, no matter the age, race, color or creed ❤️ good luck and these guys deserve new trucks and a big bonus for all they do. Thank you for having me and God bless
