Mav IC Maverick lease division

I heard that TMC just started started putting PREpass and EZ pass in there trucks again about a month ago. What are the trucks at Maverick set at? Do you run paper logs?

 

Since you seem to be a recruiter, more than a driver. I work for a Valley Bulk, However Double Eagle and West Coast (a division of Bulk,Inc.) pay is exactly the same as ours, There is Cemex, CPC, Valencia (and the list goes on), and that pays there drivers more but they do not take there trucks home and to me thats important.

Depends on what you mean bu limited, make 60K+ per year ( we have driver that are in the 70+ but I don't work weekends) and go home several night per week , off on the weekends. Yup sounds limited. You Morons that believe your going to get something for nothing are going to get exactly what you deserve.

Lease or Purchasing a good idea. Save your nickles, do your home work. Go to a truck dealer and buy or lease. But know your cost have your own CPA telling you what your doing right and wrong. Save your money into your own savings accounts )we call it a contingency find). Because in business like in life, if you don't plan your future someone else will.

If your a driver your in the right place to track expense for the truck, write them down for the next 6 months, every penny see where it goes oil, fuel, tires, road calls, lumpers, toll's... Its going to come out between 50 and 60 cpm.... Track it and finds out. I keep track of ever dime spent on my truck, fuel etc... and have for several years. In the last month I had to get 6 tires, 4 were road calls this stuff aint cheep. We do alot of mine driving so I go thru tire more than average but its still money spent on the truck I would have to cover as a L/O.

I'm not against drivers making money I'am against recruiters using this or any other board to rip off drivers. If no money lease's were not a great thing for the company why do all the bottom feeders offer them, Yeah because it's good for the driver, NOT....

Last item you think being a NO MONEY DOWN Lease operator is being your own boss, you have another thing coming. Start turning down loads and you will quickly find out. If your in the drivers seat you are not the boss, Get Real....

Dont think a slow response is necessarily an indication that we are not going to respond, some of us are not trolling for newbies to take advantage of. The purpose of us is to make sure they know there is high odds people like you are giving out very bad advice.

My advice is always the same, take it to an attorney, if he approves it take it to a CPA, if he approves it, take it to your banker if he turns it down so shoud you. Bas risk is bad risk. Do your home work and don't get ripped off by loud mouthed recruiters trolling the internet.

So put that in your fuel tank. Im done. You want to lease just read all the horror stories right here and then tell your self they all did something wrong, I'm not like them. You be back just the same and tell us all that a big bad trucking company ripped you off.

 

Missouri Kid Thanks for the info on the maverick lease.

 

Leasing may not be for everyone but could me good for someone. You would need to look at the pros and cons of both and see what would fit your wants and needs. I myself have owned a small company and been a company driver would look into the leasing programs. Just like with everything in life look before you jump.

 

I am interested in Maverick's L/P program. How is it now in 2012, how's the freight? I am also in Missouri (St. Louis area) what are the lanes like around St. Louis?
