Picking my own freight baby! My journey to & of being on Schneider choice, the Adventure & Numbers!

You banking enough to go buy a truck when this lease is over?

 

Generally speaking a first time truck buyer will not get financed through a traditional bank without assets to use as collateral.

If you can put about about 50% of the purchase price down, there are finance companies that will work with just about anybody.

With a good credit score, a contract, and 20% down you should be able to get a truck through a dealer.

Either way you're going to pay a high interest rate until established as a successful truck buyer.

 

Sell the viper and put towards your business.

 

Go buy a glider. The financing terms are generally less stringent on them.

 

You haven't tried to buy a glider have ya?

 

Fitzgerald told me it was harder and usually required more down

 

think he already sold it, if not theres the collateral.....

 

It is. While the manufacturers have their own finance companies, none of them will finance a glider so you have to deal with banks and business lending companies such as gecapital. So its not like it can't be done, but those lenders are a lot tougher than say going to freightliner to buy a truck and financing it through daimler

 

Actually, I own a 2015 glider.
