Anyone Heard Of Lobos Interstate Services?
Topic 7240 | Page 23
The company is under investigation for mail fraud.
then one morning I was told the school is shutting down all the rumors were true.
Can you verify somehow that either one of these are true? Their website is still advertising for CDL students and I couldn't find anything about a mail fraud investigation. We'll publish any facts you have but they must be verifiable facts.
I did a quick search and couldn't come up with anything.
CDL:
Commercial Driver's License (CDL)
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
- Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
- Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.
It just happened yesterday I can sent you screenshots of the text messages from the school instructor

Mine too...Popcorn anyone?
No popcorn but I do have a can of Pringles I'll share.
There might actually be some truth to this. Usually by now they, Lobos would have replied with something,...crickets.
They've definitely revamped their website but the information at the moment is unclear. They still have information up about student housing and getting your CDL through them. We'll keep an eye on it and see if they update it or check in here with us to verify anything.
Thanks for the heads up Clayton. Obviously as you can see from this conversation we've had our eye on these guys for a long time and we've tried giving them some advice about how to run their school without putting students in a bad situation. I'm hoping they do indeed drop the schooling altogether. No one should come straight off the street, learn to drive a truck, and then immediately be thrust into the role of an owner operator. It's entirely too dangerous to put that kind of pressure on someone and there's no possible way you can know how to compete as a business owner in an industry you know nothing about.

Owner Operator:
An owner-operator is a driver who either owns or leases the truck they are driving. A self-employed driver.
I have screenshots of the text message from the school instructor there's about 10 of us and we all have each other's numbers, and we're all communicating to get our lawyers page send me your email and I can send you the pictures and the contact information of all the students that were dropped off at the homeless shelter. we all sign the contract did everything they asked but it was dropped off with no way home. At this moment my family still sending money for the other students that are still there
