700 dollars average net a week? but god forbid you blow a tire.. , or one of the hundreds of sensors on that pos engine goes out... that drops it down to 300-500 dollars... for working 70-80 hours, not to mention the tax man is going to make you return a lot of money since your going to make what 120k GROSS a year but have no deductions..(sub-lease is not a deduction) good luck coming up with 10+ grand for tax time.

Hi ,
Do you still give advise to trucker looking to get from under a lease and move on with somthing left beside their dignity?
really need an answer, 6mos dver under the TA SCAM ..... -
I've got to hand it to Trans Am, though. Even on low production miles, I still made SOMETHING. Now 25 cpm average profit isn't going to cut it for me, but even when I left on the tail end of back to back disappointing weeks, after they processed everything, my final statement was still only negative two cents. That's actually #### impressive for me because at C.R. England, I would be constantly hurting.

i bet they never tell you in Transam Orientation, you only start making a profit AFTER running 1700 miles for the week...
1 break-down, 1 bad dispatch, 1 bad layover, 1 small incident, where you cant make another long run that week... YOU MAKE $0.00 -
Personally, i think lease purchase programs ought to be outlawed. Its nothing but a shell game designed to make people think they are going to be an owner-operator, which is false. The sickening part about it is POS lying con artist scumbags like russ mcelliot and john bledsoe insist on forcing this crap down their driving school students' thoats. Both of those clowns ought to be roasted alive with a flame thrower.
