I have been driving for 32 years, have been an O/O for 10. Not trying to insult you TrucerPete but I can only assume you are a company driver, with your statement. Think about it, if you didn't make a profic for 2-3 years you would be bankrupt.... Generally it takes a few years to get to know what your doing. (How to make the most $$) I personally don't think a lease purchase is a good idea. I would be happy to explain if you like

If the owner of one truck considers themself to be an employee and pays himself or herself an employee's wages, then the company, the total expenses, can be negative for the truck/company while the owner/driver still makes a solid takehome wage.feldsforever Thanks this. -

It is more freedom when ur not a company driver... but a hell of a lot more responsibility as well.. Thats the other side of the coin that never seems to be mentioned.
