I think their website says "lease drivers make UP TO $100k/year"

That's gross. Truck payment, insurance, repairs, fuel, etc...not a lot of meat on that bone.

 

Haha, this is a joke right!

 

23 bucks in three weeks. Lol.
I just spent more than that at the iron skillet. Lol.
I'm not ragging you driver,but #### these lease
Nightmares just keep getting better and better.

 

Another one hit wonder

 

He could only afford the Wifi for one hour lol

 

You guys got to do your research 90% of l/p are setting you up for failure but there are some that are descent.

 

The consensus is that L/P is a sham. That it's not worth getting involved in. But to be fair there are instances where lease purchase operators have successfully completed a lease, and now owned their truck. I don't know what the success/failure ratio is, but it is not impossible to complete a lease. It just depends on how much you're willing to sacrifice in order to make it work, and whether or not you have a strong business acumen. You must be prepared to live in the truck. Home every weekend won't cut it.
