    I was wondering has anyone in here done a TEL lease through USA Truck? My driver manager let me know I will be eligible to lease through that program in another three months and I keep hearing various things about the lease but I wanted to ask some of the guys in here who have done it.

    Pretty much a I am over the road and have been out here for almost 2 months without going home. I have a teenage daughter who is almost an adult and I see no need to return home anytime soon I can easily stay out here for months at a time and run miles so that’s not an issue just curious what I would have to do to be successful leasing through TEL and using USA Truck load board

    I highly recommend it. I think you’ll love it. Be your own man, an owner operator. YOU call the shots like a BOSS.

    Tel lease was a disaster for me. I wrote about it in my jbhunt thread. Their equipment was used up Schneider trucks, their warrantee was a joke, and they were unprofessional and inept.

    They were so bad, jbhunt stepped in on my behalf and told them to pound sand.

    What's so bad about being a Lease Driver? I have just been hired with A&A Express and they had me fill out a credit app with TEL leasing for my truck, which was approved. Now I'm just waiting for a couple of weeks for my orientation. What should I be wary of?
