is it really worth it?

if you lease onto a company or lease to them you may make good money, crst has a walk away lease and i know several poeople who are making very good money = grossing arounf 4 k a week and probably 2500 a week is take home

remember you have to have a good running truck and take care of it, do not skip on tires and pms.

take care of it it will take care of you

 

I read a few of your posts tonight...... I wonder who you work for?

 

4k gross isn't abnormal, but $2500 net on that gross is ridiculous. I guess some unsuspecting fool might read that and believe it. The same fool probably still has a headache from falling off the turnip truck.

 

i work for crst

 

crst has a very good lease program, they hit you up for $310 a week lease payment, .10 miles goes in escrow for maintainance and another $125 a week for insurance, permits and so forth, the fuel tax is paid either at the pump or quarterly.

An average trip from Kohls in Wurtsboro NY ot FOntanna CA pays $3,000, 2600 miles, the loease op gets 70% of that 3k. that is $21oo, oh yeah, the fuels surcharge is excellent at crst, at that NY TO CALI the fuel surcahge is probably $700 team driving covers way more ground than solos. a solo oawner op will not make half what a team makes, because a team runs way more miles and there are two pwoplw paying the maintainance not one, so teams make way more , the trip from ny to wurtboro takes 60, do that a couple times a week and you are in good shape, and the shorter runs have a much high pay rate.

you should really look into it.

 

Sounds like Rosalina is pulling #'s out of her.......hat.... Now, you figure, you're driving a 4 - 5 year old piece of crap tractor....yeah...you ain't payin' much to drive it......on the front end. Out of the $2100 that you get for your 2600 miles... IF the truck gets 6mpg... you're looking at 433 gals of fuel....at around $3.20(estimated avg)...that works out to $1385... now.... take another $260.00 for your maint. plus the other $435 she mentioned....Let's take a look

$2100
-$1385-Fuel
-$ 695-Lease, Maint, Tags, etc.
+$ 700-FSC
$ 720 - PROFIT

I don't know....if I had to drive from NY to Cali....for $720.....I don't think I'd be telling anybody about it......well.....I would too....I'd be warning them!!!
