Lease purchase programs are hard no doubt. You need to be good at buisness and have a good driver manager to even stand a chance
but to say no one succeeds is incorrect
Here at transam we have over 100 people who have bought there trucks and have stayed on as O/O
. Many more have left with thier trucks and tried other things
there are 8 drivers who now own mutiple trucks all leased onto transam
SO IT CAN BE DONE
the biggest fault lies in allowing new drivers to lease trucks before they understand what OTR trucking entails
this accounts for the failure percentage
at transam you can lease trucks that have been turned in by others for as little as 6 months and at the end of the lease by it out lease yourself back to transam and keep on trucking
to be clear a new truck has a 5 year lease. If you lease said truck at the 3 1/2 year mark in 18 months the lease expires you can then purchase that truck at a reduced rate financed thru transam and cut your payments in half.
This doesnt fix the fantasy part of leasing a truck with under 100000 miles on it and becoming an O/O tommorow
and living happily ever afterFlip Flops and ATX Thank this. -
Wow, none of you have been helpful... I asked for company suggestions, most companies do 2012-2013 trucks with a 350,000 mile lease purchase program.. So most of you saying what I am looking for is not real, you are wrong and talking out your---.
If you don't know a company, why comment? This is a thread asking a question, looking for answers... Do you people just like talking or something?
I never said I was only looking to lease/purchase for the sake of a pet. Do not lecture me when you obviously didn't even read what I said. Many lease to purchase programs offer pets in the truck.
All I asked is a simple question. What companies, if any, have you people learned of or had experience with in a lease purchase program and if it was suggestable or not.
I did not ask for paragraph upon paragraph of " tips ".
Seriously... What a waste of time reading all this. I didn't come here and post this to be told Obama is the reason I should not lease which is total bull, nor that some people think it is bad. Some of you are students! How can you possibly be trying to give ME advise?
Ugh, this whole thread disgusts me. I have talked to dozens of companies that fit my terms to a tee, I just wanted some fellow truckers with EXPERIENCE to tell me which companies they felt had a good lease/purchase.
Nothing I hate more than people who know nothing about what they are talking about (have never leased a truck in their life) trying to tell me the ins and outs let alone giving me advise and trying to tell me to change my mind.
Thanks for nothing guys. =/thelinedriver, shadowchasertransport, Opus and 3 others Thank this. -
you have real world owner operators who are trying to help you by advising you against a lease purchase and this is your reply.....niceSHC, rickybobby, Already There and 4 others Thank this. -
you come along. and ask the same question that is constantly getting asked on this sight. cept you have some demands with your request.
you only have 1 year experience.
the rest of us have been out here a long time. some have actually done what you want to do. only to never be heard from again.
we've been around. you haven't.
we all have the smoke dream. to be rich and famous. but the reality is. there's only one way. and your way isn't it. but most of you will do it anyways.
because the only thing you can think of. IS GEORGE WASHINGTON. and that man is pretty powerful on some of you truckers.
we're not trying to piss on your dream. we're just trying to wake you up.Cranky Yankee and Already There Thank this. -
This is the reason that a LEASE OP thread is needed!
No O/O is going to give you the answer you want!
Most run under there own Authority or Lease to a company, meaning if they don't like the company they are Leased to they can take THERE truck and move it to another company! -
Sure, plenty of companies Leasing (but the purchase is not really part of it) newer trucks BUT you also want to be under 400K miles when done. How do you do that when you are having to run over 3,000 miles a week just to make driver wages?
If you want to do this and OWN the truck at the end then you need to be looking at leases that are with used equipment with higher miles (400K+) to start.
So you are looking for something that doesn't exist.
BTW, I was a profitable lease operator but NEVER bought into the delusion that it was anything more than it was - a way to make a better pay check IF I did all the right things.Hanadarko, Corporal_Clegg, ATX and 2 others Thank this. -
we need less like you on the roads -
18 post just one student you need a reality check

This is what they don't tell you but it is the truth. If it was a good thing to do you would hear good things about it. There is no easy way into becoming an owner operator. Perhaps nobody should have made ANY replies in this thread. Then we'd get scorned for not saying anything. This is the hard reality of trucking. You can no way learn this through one year of experience. Did you read anything in my previous posts about drawing up a simple plan about knowing your costs and then getting a rough idea as to what you need to make for the business to work? Those that fail to plan are planning to fail. Enough said.
