    They do have dedicated in the South Region but you cannot turn down any load. They give you one month before truck payments start coming out and you can settle after every load if you want. Load planning really sucks.
    Load is paid zip code to zip code.
    My last settlement 1126.00 I brought home 416.00 before taxes. Load picked up on a Friday and couldn't deliver until Monday but your payments are still coming out regardless. Looking pretty bleak

    My husband applied to Dart a couple of days ago and the very next morning he got a call from a recruiter asking when he can come to orientation... The recruiter said he'd be able to bring home $1100-$1500 after expenses, before taxes, and being home almost daily. Does this sound accurate? He's still interested, but looking at other companies to lease a truck with, too. Trying to weigh all of our options before jumping.

    Chevy 85 started this thread, everything was going well. Then after a month no word, this coincides with when truck payments would come out. Chevy 85 where are you.
    Mydogizzy any updates?
    Any other lease drivers who have been down the lease road, like maybe more than 6 months???
    Thanks

    So 43 days out and 10 days home.
    I can come home anytime I want as long as I want. The key is being cool with your dispatcher.

    Driving a 2016 Freightliner Cascadia 10 speed DD 13 governed st 65. When I get a chance I'm going to have Freightliner reprogram ECM. Came equipped with crash avoidance system which is absolutely irritating to say the least. Can't get within 300 feet of a slower vehicle unless you mash on the gas then about 150 feet it starts raising hell if you leave off the gas it'll hit the brakes and throw on the Jake. Picks up vehicles on a curve also going off an exit.
    Not easy passing a 63 or 64 mile an hour truck or four wheeler so going to have the ECM reprogram so I can at least get around without clogging up the left lane.

    You wont be able to do this at a dealer, They wont adjust those as its against there policy and they will say that it is considered original mandatory safety equipment. Just a word of caution if you do get into a rear end accident and they pull the ECM Report and see that it was "Disabled" after shipment you could be on the hook for the damages regardless of fault.
