    I understand and I appreciate your response. I am very interested in the LP Program and hope this works out for me. I am making good money where I am, However, Why should let the company make the money when I can put it in my pocket ? Sure there are Pros & Cons to everything, But this way, in 2 years, you can own a pretty decent rig. Sure you may have to perform an inframe around 1,000,000 miles, or you can trade it off a one that is newer and is better equipped.

    hey Ccolvin I was talking to some other drivers at the Fontana yard. they told me that you have to be a married couple to do the lease program out of fontana. the other terminals dont care but alvin at fontana will only allowed married couples is what i heard.

    Werner and CRST are team jobs

    Windy and WSE are solo.

    I don't know what to do.

    CRST will pay for your school as long as you stay with them for 8 months, werner will reimburse you the tuition if you stay with them for so long. the other 2 i dont know. Crst is good to start with just good luck on finding a good co driver

    I have my CDL...just finished the school.

    CRST recruiter says no reimbursement for school or HAZMAT endorsement.

    Werner says bring receipts and they will reimburse.

    I want to go CRST but the school and hazmat reimbursement is about $2200 that I will get back by going with Werner.
