why would anyone lease a truck when you can go buy a decent used truck and have it paid off? i feel like the only way to survive out here is to have the truck bought and paid off.

Honestly if you aren't already knee deep in trucks now just stay a company man lol. I got offered .48 cpm the other day to go to work for a company here in Dallas... .025 cpm less and alot less headaches.. Not sure if I can take the company driver life anymore though. -
Why would anyone buy a truck now after our gov has just a few days ago voted, and now is law to allow Mexican Trucking co to run any where in the US. I cant buy low cost mexican fuel or get low cost insurance and tags for my trucks. I have to be DOT certified health card, and have workers comp and i am taxed to death. I have now sold all my trucks and out of business. O/O get ripped off in the south big time.The mileage guides are a joke,and when you lease on you will get so many fees tacked on to you until you do all the work, pay all the cost and drive day and nite and the big guys get it all. I know a driver who went to the DOT for help when the company was force dispatching drivers knowing that the driver had no hours left on his books to drive. The driver was told to drive or be fired, the driver was fired for not taking another 8 hr drive to Pa after he just got back. The driver recorded the dispatcher telling him to take the load, but the DOT would not go after the large Company. You drivers better wake up and know this is a Big Dog business, get yourself a pocket tape recorder and record all messages. I use to go to the ports to get boxes and they would have rotten tires and bad lights, i began to take pictures and send them to the media. Things did change after the story on TV. But you have to stay on guard.

Unions had their place.. but now all they do is allow the lazy ####### to get the same pay as the one that bust his ### all day... Which means productivity goes down ... This is a different generation these people now days don't take pride in anything they do and a union would only reward them for it.. and what would a union do about the taxes on fuel or our income nothing except lobby the government for more giveaways ..
Yeah Unions did help build this country.. Then they said to hell with it and robbed it blind.jbatmick, jdrentzjr, kid_cardiac and 1 other person Thank this. -
Tell me if Unions ruined this country why is it that many unions have been able to keep companys here in USA while many other companys SEND their factories to mexico or china. Its very bad when low paying textiles and many more low wage jobs are sent to other countries. Its called greed!!!!! Company owners want to make quick large profits off the backs of the working class, yet the working class must strugle for years to have anything. Big companys can hire lawyers to file all types of forms so they dont have to pay taxes but the middle class pays it all. When i was a lease driver i soon found out how these companys place all the operation cost on the o/o, you do all the work the company gets all the pay The workers of the USA can only build a product when they are supplied with good materials. These company owners cut corners using cheap materials then blame the worker because of bad products. what makes it so bad is management will get big pay and bonus when there hands have done nothing to help.
