We lease and the damaged trucks get repaired, the company and its insurance stands that. I get to the lease yard often, actually saw the ones being sold in the line, they are gone before 500k. They used to run longer.
They also swap teams out for new trucks often to keep from having 500 k on 2 year old trucks.Chinatown Thanks this. -

I don't, and wouldn't do Western Express, SMX I might have considered.
When our company owned tractors, they dragged the wrecks and breakdowns home, and the parts are worth something, repairables worth more.
I was just saying that trucks leased are usually fixed by someone if they are worth fixing. We do fix minor stuff bumpers and mirrors, and even a major deer hit taking hood and the rest of the front end can cost over 15 grand to fix pretty easily, those get done at a body shop and dealer, a hard collision cost around 50 grand and it got repaired.
One of ours got ditched in Indiana, and over 22 thousand damage and it's repaired and running again. Not sure how much it took to repair the turkey wagon he was pulling loaded.Chinatown Thanks this. -
Most people know not to touch that company unless last resort. This post isn't opening up anyone's eyes.
