    @slim shady you're welcome. I hope people do not read that like I’m mad, just trying to prevent as many people as I can from financially ruining theirselves with the DB Kustom Trucks Program. Mine is financed through Crossroads Financial and reports to my credit monthly. To walk away will be a voluntary repo on your credit. And these trucks get turned in like crazy, because of the added expense that comes with them.

    QC has a few flaws, but I like working with them that’s for sure.

    I have 36 months and then $15k buy out; on a Cummins with 1.3 million on her by then.
    Or
    36 months and walk away from the lease.
    Either way I’m 36 months from buying a Fitzgerald
     
    hey_serg, slim shady and ChicagoJohn Thank this.

    I’ll let someone else answer. I pull for an affiliate and he owns his trailers, for the most part we have nice trailers. The guys pulling them do their best to junk them up, so I can not blame the affiliate owner for that. We do have a dedicated customer or two that beats the crap out of trailers, so we don’t send good trailers to them.
     
    ChicagoJohn Thanks this.

    I also work for an affiliate {866} some of the trailers are owned by them but I'm assuming the 6 digit trailers are QC owned. most of my coworkers have no idea on how to do a proper pretrip which adds to the burden

    Agree with the absentee pretrippers. I’m in Joliet 750.

    Well I'm still here at qc, living the dream lol.
    What is starting to really bother me is seeing more trucks being turned in and qc fireing more driver's, I mean they're firing more than they can hire. I'm sorry I don't know their reasons but it gives me an uneasy feeling thinking who's next

    with the constant messages from Tampa about HOS violations I think I can guess why so many are being fired

    Yeah I guess the same thing but then I think are these drivers are really that stupid find it hard to believe that they're all that stupid to unplug their PeopleNet or run on PC under a load
