    There are two basic routes in l/p; one is intent to purchase and the other is simply wanting more control/freedom and continually renting.

    If you intend to purchase, I would recommend JCT. If you have no interest in purchasing then I would recommend a back end loaded lease somewhere else.

    A back loaded lease is one with lower payments but a very large balloon payment at the end. This is ideal for bringing in the most per month as you would have no interest in paying the balloon and would simply turn it in and lease another.

    The JCT lease has no balloon but does have the higher payments.

    You can make it here if you do these simple things:
    • Pick up on time
    • Deliver on time
    • Buy the cheapest pump price fuel.
    If you can't be on time just notify them asap with a realistic time that you can be there.

    The only con I can list is the pay rate. It's at least $0.10pm too low.

    Ummmm, you missed the winky, jokie aspect to the comment. But, to give an example...leaving the rest area in lyman wyoming at 2 am...i often run that stop sign....for no reason at all. Visibility high, and i just do it.

    I'm a sucker for an awesome mount. It''s called MagBuddy. These are great. The small one is called MagBuddy Anywhere and comes in a package of two. So, one for the front dash and on for the sleeper. The other one is called MagBuddy Dash and can work on window or dash and can extend out 2in if needed. It is holding my TND530 with no issues. These will run you $20-$25 at a TA/Petro. Price my vary from store to store. They hold very well and my GPS and phone have not really moved at all with bumps in the road from Las Cruces, NM to Phoenix, AZ.

    There is also on that goes in a cup holder and another that attaches to the head rest in a car and one that clips to the a/c vent.

    Everytime you stop the truck it takes 3 times the energy to get moving again so not stopping at stop signs and stop lights = PROFIT
