You need to keep reading the small print in that Lonestar lease deal?

This is why I shake my head everytime I hear a "mega" l/p program advertised on sattelite radio. Translation; come work for us. Haul our freight. Pay for our truck plus fuel, repairs ect., and make as much per mi. as many company drivers do. GREAT IDEA!!! -
I can't for the life of me understand why anyone would want a brand new truck, not with all of the time they spend in the shop.
"But it has a warranty!!"
Yeah, tell yourself that when those wheels aren't turning and yet the payment keeps demanding attention....
Then there's that little part about you not being in control of your loads, so you better no PO anyone in operations.truckerman75103 Thanks this. -

Western flyer Thanks this.

I suppose they will pay you break down pay so you can eat, too. Right?
I guess I don't understand the point of your post. You claim to have 18 years experience, so I would think you've been around the block a time or two.
Are you looking for validation or what? This site is packed with stories of people getting the shaft in a fleece deal.
IMHO, if you want to own a truck, then figure out a way to get financed on one and lease it to a company like Landstar.
Otherwise you're just a glorified company driver. -
i never said i was going to lease one.....just helping out any driver that looking to lease a brand new truck.....
