    Sorry Notarps!But you had already said it and I was just asking!

    Yeah Flatbed they do and apparently you're sitting in the bleachers with me in the small minds crowd! :biggrin_25522:

    But as many have asked in several threads just prove it but that pride after putting foot in mouth just aint big enough to to it! Just like on the CB say it and when called out all you hear is the crickets! No gonads to back it up!

    It is my opinion that anyone who leases a truck from the company they are contracted to is making a foolish mistake. Landline the mag from OOIDA did a wonderful article on in house leases. Anyone looking to do one should beware.

    1. Not everyone is prepared to be a "Owner operator".
    2. Save your money "Practice disipline and patience".
    3. Buy a cash truck "That is true Ownership not a lease illusion".
    4. Learn to work on your truck "If you want to just hold a steering wheel drive for a company"
    5. Save more money for the inevitable shop work on your cash truck. "It is going to happen"
    6. Find a quality company to contract to or establish your own authority "more money saving".

    That is a readers digest version of successful ownership. It is exactly what I did and now I have 3 trucks contracted to landstar. All bought, all paid for, all 2005 and newer. Nobody is going to do you any favors out here, and as long as there are dreamers and fools that buy into the false promises of big money being a big "owner" when they are actually a "Leasee". Lease purchase programs will continue to thrive. I never bought the b.s. and I am successful by most folks standards. I am 34 and been driving 11 years and I knew and know there is no easy way to ownership. Either save your money for a year or 2, or go to a LIGIT "BANK" and borrow it then hope for the best.

    OK Flatbed lets get it straight before you fall off the trailer again and hit your head! GOo back to post #503 where you "corrected" my spelling in post #504 and you put where I spelled it bleschers but when you go and look at that post #503 it WAS spelled correctly!

    I'm not the one running around jabbering like a whatever here! I made a reply to someone attempting to have an internet argument and who's apparently coming unarmed!

    Give up flatbed as you just don't have what it takes to attempt to pee me off! It's a small thing of mind over matter. I don't mind as you really don't matter! Get over it slick as you're the one who keeps bringing it up, I keep slamming you back down and it's no big freaking deal as it is embarrassing fighting someone like you that's unarmed! I could go to jail for cyber bullying!

    Now, I do believe it's time to lock this going nowhere thread down before someone else jumps in here and embarrasses themselves ! We've figured beyond a shadow of a doubt that only newbies sing Primes praises along with some who aren't drivers there! Thread should be locked and tossed! I'm just saying.

    Please no lock. Maybe go back and delete the recent irrelevant posts. Nothing says this might be a bad idea like a thread that is years old with driver after driver who "couldn't make it" on the get rich plan.
