    Ive been with prime now for just over a year and have been in my own lease since July it's hard to believe it went by so fast I just want to say to anyone thinking about coming to prime it was definitely the best career decision I have ever made I hear so many other drivers talking about how you can never make money leasing from prime all I can say is they have no clue what they are talking about how much money you make all depends on how you run your business I was lucky enough to have an instructor /trainer who was a successful lease operator and was not just training to add money to his pocket I have decided that I am going to try to do the same thingI'm going to sprimo on the 19th to become an instructor and I am definitely looking forward to the opportunity of helping people start their new adventure

    How about showing the real numbers? Miles driven, gross per mile, and net per mile?

    Not trying to be rude, but it might be helpful to others who may be thinking of doing what you did.

    I tend to agree about a year from now. Maybe do it another full year on your own, then consider training. Just my .02

    You really got to love new rookies knowing enough to train, wow... Good Luck with that.

    The way we know is from something you do not have, experience.. Be safe, sleep well knowing the new guy your training that is now driving really has not been trained.

    You can not teach what you do not know, the problem is that you do not know that . But you will. Experience will eventuality catch up..
