    I've said it before, and I'll say it again.

    Just say NO to lease purchase options!

    Good day folks, stay safe.

    They used to say no to drugs;).
    I wouldn’t mind leasing a car-hauler truck from Tesla, provided they guarantee minimum cars/miles/rate per month to haul their vehicles.

    It all depends on the individual seeking out the lease.

    For some reason that has me thinking about lease purchasing a truck..

    I could drive a brand new freightliner.. pay $1000/week for 5 years.. hm
    $4000/monthx60 = $240,000

    where do I sign?
    Hurry! Before someone beats me to this limited time, deal of a lifetime!
    :3some: :rolleyes:

    That's 90% of it right there.

    10% is knowing how to drive the truck (easy peasy). The rest is knowing how to run a profitable business and knowing how to run the numbers before jumping in to decide if you can be profitable or not.

    Just because you're a great cook doesn't mean you should open a restaurant.

    Doesn't mean you shouldn't open a restruant.

    To me, the only difference between leasing , driving under someone’s authority, or a driver ..... no difference at all. But , me, as a 100% independent O/O , the difference between myself and all those that I named above is the FREEDOM!!!! Yes! I’m free to go, do, stop, sleep , charge , refuse, vacation , take off any f**** time I want . That is what Americans are , aren’t ? We strive for freedom , right ? So, my fellow MAGA supporters, MGY first .
