I for one have found LMB's post about 20000000x more useful and objective, and I implore you, nay I demand you continue posting because your objective and intelligent posting reflects far better on JCT then mad rambling and demands for no hometime and 4000 miles a week. Which by the way, I still don't think is possibly on a every week basis legally.

If you like JCT LMB please help us interested in recieving objective information rather then have JCT FOR LIFE shoved down our throats! Please! This thread is chocked full of such great information provided by you it would be a crying shame for you to run off now!

I will give you kittens if you come back. Or if you don't like kittens... I will not give you kittens if you come back.
Could we please just drop it and move on....I believe the issue has been solved.

Thanks!

If I can ask, what does JCT pay per mile? And then after all your operating expences like lease payments, fuel, tolls and deductions for maintenance accounts etc. what do you net per mile before taxes and your health insurance with JCT?

I'd recommend taking a peak at JCT's website. It says they pay $.90 per mile, plus a $.02 safety bonus. While you're there, you can also take a look at the equipment offered. As far as how much you net per mile after all expenses, you might browse through the earlier pages in this thread. I'm sure I've seen that addressed a few times.

I talked to a Recruiter there and she emailed me a few things. One of the things she sent me was a spreadsheet that shows your cost of everything. It had your fixed cost of about what you would be spending to do the lease,

The variable cost were sort of figured into it but that is something that will vary with the operator, Due to how you drive and maintain your truck. I think I still have it if anyone would like to see it shoot me a pm.
