Not only a lease,but a lease with an eastern block company,some people are so optimistic.

Redriderex Thanks this.

It seems like the European owned companies are the worst base of these threads I read. Most lease don't work I have learn but I do have a few old classmates who swear by Schneider ic program as the best

Ok,im EE,and you're right about some things.
First,many of EE drivers had nothing to do with trucking back in Europe,and even if they did,rules are more strict over there( dont know about russia ), there's no paper logs over there,no cheating,they drive less hours per day,in some countries,france i think,you're not alowed to drive truck on weekend,so if you're thinking its wild west over there,you're wrong,rules are very strict.
Second,Im paying taxes just like everybody else i know. We dont have any benefits for being foreign,law is the same,both for me and any US born person.
About the rates. If you get all EE trucks from chicago in one place,even then that is so small number of trucks compared to rest of USA.
I used to dh up to 1400 miles because i didn't want to haul cheap freight.
Im first to admit there is a bunch of trash companies in chicago. Like that guy you worked for in ATA. He got his ### kicked few times because he tought he is untouchable. My friends worked there when they had contract with toyota,and there was something missing on every paycheck.
There are idiots everywhere,but lets not generalize things and trash everybody who drives white volvo( mine is blue )
About MGR,my friend is o/o there since 2011. Never has any major issues. Once he got charged 1000$ coz he was put oos in tn for trailer brakes put of adjustment. Few months later he got clean level 3 in mo and got his 1000$ back.
I dont know whats the deal on lease side.
Their safety score is ugly. All you need is few o/o idiots who dont care about equipment,who dont know or dont care about logbooks and thats it.
I met lot of american drivers who are working for EE companies and in 99% its because their cdl is so messed up so nobody else would hire them.diesel drinker, Ougigoug, izifaddag and 2 others Thank this. -
The problem with a lot of trucking companies from Illinois is that the politicians here encouraged all these illegal activities by accepting bribes and God knows what else.
joseph1135 Thanks this. -
You have a great great point here but you are living in America the land of stereotyping, prejudicial, discriminatory of a group of people in regards to their race, sexuality or foreign status. It will never change but maybe get better as the younger generation mature with less bias views of a people cultural backgroundsdiesel drinker and Az_Driver Thank this. -
I'll pass. -
I can recall the number of times I have been almost run over by an EE driver at the Petro in Gary, IN. It's basically a waste of breath for me to say something to them because they're either not going to understand me or look at me Iike I have 6 heads. Isn't much I can do anyways, I'm in there territory. I treat it as if I was in one of there countries and go by there rules.
Getsinyourblood Thanks this.
