Great to hear you are running some good miles, hope being solo I to can put some good numbers down the highway. Is JCT good about given you a preplan or is there alot of sitting and waiting on the next load? Also how was the road test, I have been driving an auto for the past 18months and hope I still know how to shift. Someone had said that they have volvo's now also, was that true when you two went to orientation and did you see any new pro stars?

"You will be an IC (lease purchase) "

You are not a IC if you lease to anyone or for that matter a lease purchase.

Idependent Contractors run under there own Operating Authority and usually get there own cust. base.

You are a lease purchase operator with a buy out at the end.

Actually, by tax code you would be an independent contractor.
