Where is everyone #5

I can tell ya one thing with 100% certainty... mine runs way better on kwik fill fuel than it does on the fuel from either of the local speedways.

 

They allow u to pick ur own truck. Thats just who they get their trucks from. There is probably like 10-15 trucks in the missoula yard for new guys to pick from. There is alot of guys that have completed the l.p program like 3 or 4 times and they go to okc and pick out a new truck.. Not sure why they wouldnt just get theiir own financing done thru a dealership and sign on as an o/o ... to each their own i guess

 

Am I seeing that correctly.... is that a LJ.

Tried zooming in. Hard to tell.

 

yeah I ran into one of your guys a few weeks back that had a Peterbilt from Tulsa. He didn’t do the LP but I think he was originally on with Warren and ran as an OO a bit for DSV with the old truck.




Weird how I hear about all these DSV guys that complete their lease and then turn around and get another used truck from Heartland......

 

Sorry to disappoint you but its an autocar. Been sitting there for as long as I can remember.

 

It took too long with friends trying to convince me that it was worth buying at Kwik Fill before I tried it, now I try to fuel there as much as possible. I always got horrible mileage from Speedway fuel for whatever reason?

 

Yeah man that one gets me too... it seems like the majority of the l.p guys have done the program 3 or 4 times... i ask them why not just get ur own truck and sign as o.op ... usually the answer is well "i can walk away from this at anytime" ... fair enough... but leaving alot of money on the table leasing , since all ur profit goes towards the truck payment....not to mention if they decide to terminate ur contract, (which they can at any time , per the contract) all that equity in the truck is gone... which as an o.op that money would be in the bank because ur not paying dsv for a truck....just my opinion.... thats what i will do once i finish, either sign on as o.op or go after my own authority... cant ever see me doing another lease deal... its a great program to learn the business, but there really isnt any financial upside to doing a l/p program over n over n over again

 

I find that even more interesting because our engines are about as different as they can be.

 

Well that should be illegal, might as well say I’m workin’ for free a percentage of the time! That’s it I’m dumping 70% of my money into my savings account rofl I’ll be an owner operator in 100 years

 

I’ve got my eye on a Husqvarna 460 Rancher; sorry @otherhalftw looks like we’re arch rivals now hehe I gotta buy all Husqvarna apparel and 20 different pieces of equipment just like you with Stihl
