    Central is not a bad co to lease from, We have a KW T-2000 that we leased from them, but with any lease just make sure you read it before you sign it, I think that you will like this Co just as good as any co out there. Good Luck Lonesome Dove,6 years with Central and owner-operator for 3 almost 5 yrs with them. :biggrin_25526:

    Our truck is just fine runs good but any truck will run good as long as you keep up on the maint. We have had it since July of 05 and has suited us just fine, we have almost 400,000 miles on her and she is still going strong thanks for asking. Lonesome Dove

    I guess i posted in the wrong forum, STAY AWAY! and the lease trucks are ordered company spec i know because i had one, if you team and lease you will eat and put a buck or two away, but just dont do it solo. Lonsomedove has nothing but great to say, but according to her she teams, but she sounds more like a recruiter to me. Anyway i have been there done that and now over that (leasing with them, they are crooks in my eyes, i busted my hump for them and never made money). That company has more ex-C.R. ENGLAND employees upstairs every month pretty soon it'll all be ran by c.r. england STAY AWAY!!!

    Hey Lonsomedove,

    I Guess I Posted In The Wrong Forum (your Central Refrigerated Recruiting Forum), Anyway I Will Just Come Over Here Now And Answer The Questions That Are In My Realm And What I Know Best And Give Everyone A Fair Warning So That When They Take Your Advice On How Its Such A Great Company, They Can Come Over Here When They Hate It And I Can Say "told You So". Sorry For Raining On Your Parade In The Other Forum. Sincerely, Hammy(from Over The Hedge)

    Stay away from what? All companys order there trucks that way. Yea if you team you make more money not just a couple of buck in your pocket, when we team we make 3,000 or more a week and that is take home pay , we made 170,586.87 last year and that is no lie. And just because I don't have anything bad to say about central does not make me a recruiter, it just means that we have not had bad problems with them . and so what if they have ex-c.r. england employees unstairs as long as they do there job who cares.

    Central will not deny an experienced driver as long as they have a good DOT Record and no bad criminal history. I just got my CDL Saturday and I leave with a pretty cool trainer tomorrow. I haven't had much experience with them but they have been great thus far. The main consensus seems to be they are a great company to train with and if you are going to lease, do it in teams or prepare to live out of your truck.
