Look, I'm not hatin' on the SNI finance thing, it worked for me and I encourage it. But to suggest that leasing a truck is better than owning a used truck is absolutely ignorant and defies any sort of business sense. Here's the raw numbers, Whipper......you're doing basically $900 a WEEK in payments......that's $46,800 a year. I could replace EVERY SINGLE NUT AND BOLT on this thing for less. Jeez.........Dominick253, duddie and againstthewind Thank this. -

If you're only using one gallon in 10k miles, that's not bad. The way you wrote it, it looked like you were putting in 4 to 6 gallons between 12k mile changes.
Dominick253 Thanks this. -

I was using 4 to 6 gallons for years. Truck was running great , no real issues. The reason I got the inframe done. Coolant was in the oil.

Theres drivers out here with paid off used trucks that put them in the poor house because it broke down all the time. That's the risk with a used truck and with a new truck like mine it's a lot of money. Not $900 a week, that includes the maintenence account but still a lot.
I know leasing through a mega carrier is not a good deal.. i think everybody knows that lol.
There is risk with new and with used trucks, that's all I'm saying. There is no one better way, everybody has a different operation, situatuon, wants and needs.Last edited: Feb 22, 2016
