TEL sent final statement at last. I am disgusted. They want $6,670 after deducting the $2000 that was left in my escrow. Basically, that is $2000 greater than I expected.

They charged for a bunch of stuff that was already there when I got the truck which I verbally complained about but failed to document in writing. They charged for a missing mattress that wasn't missing when I left it at shop. And worst of all, they charged for the clutch repair that had them holding the truck hostage while they fought with kenworth over whether it was covered under warrantee or whether one of the three shops that charged for greasing but failed to actually grease. That is just plain wrong. And it is about $2000. Magic number.

Going to ask if drivers legal plan will negotiate the bill down for a fee but I am not optimistic. I was prepared to pay the penalties but this is a real injustice and indignity. I hear they will only give me 12 months to pay it out and that will be an ugly hardship.

As if I needed another reason to never never never ever consider leasing again.

Wowsers, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope they'll negotiate that down for you, that is a big chunk.

Nope they won't. You didn't know how to manage your money. Some of these stories are hilarious

Don't forget to remind them that SCOTUS just ruled that binding arbitration even if in your contract is not enforceable
