    Aw, c'mon, aren't you even a little bit ticked? Face flushed? Ears turning red? If you don't care, why do you keep trying to defend the BS that you posted? Do you realize that you're just digging yourself in deeper?

    From what I know about Swift, if you log more than 62 mph, they're going to #####. If you falsify the logs, the Qualcomm rats you out. Am I wrong about any of that?

    Oh, no doubt, up every hill, around every curve, in every kind of traffic and weather. You're such a supertrucker, you can probably drop and hook a trailer at 68 mph, right?

    Now I think we're getting closer to the truth.

    Nah. 68 mph, all the way.

    Check out the politics forum. It's always good for an argument.

    Yes of course a basement in Florida! Just like that oceanfront property in Arizona!

    This is my last post on here...

    Anybody who sees this post and reads it, you can decide for yourself if you want to take the risk. In my opinion there isn't a lease purchase plan anywhere that is worth putting yourself into.

    Yeah, I understand that there are drivers with a desire to have their own trucks; and lease purchase gives drivers a chance to experience what that is like. Good luck to any of you who choose to do it.

    For me I'm done with lease purchase. My experience over the last six years has been educational to say the least. If I ever own another rig I will buy from a dealer. Which is something I will probably do in the future.

    As I said, take this post for what you get out of it. My purpose on here was to express the truth about Swift and their lease and how they operate at this point...

    Good luck to all of you.

    It wasn't really intended as an attack. In my own inimitable fashion, it's like saying, "Please use some punctuation so I don't get a headache trying to read it".

    Why? Did you run out of trucking companies to bash? :biggrin_25523:

    For a solo driver, I wouldn't do it. IMO, there aren't enough miles to pay the expenses and have enough left over to make it worthwhile for me. For a team, or for a solo driver who is more interested in getting into driving and having a new truck than making a lot of money, it's a great opportunity.

    Yeah, but then you'll need a bank loan to get the truck, and you'll be back here telling us how the bank is ripping you off by charging you interest, and forcing you to make payments. If you can get your own authority, you'll complain about what a hard time the government is giving you.

    Personally, I hope you hang around on this board. I like your spirit. I had a hard time around here until I learned two things.

    1.) Don't complain. Nobody wants to hear it.

    2.) If you post something that is not believable, nobody is going to believe it, whether it is true or not.

    Hope this helps.

    Isn't it funny how, when asked to prove wild claims with documentation, the people who can't (because it never happened) resort to name calling and insults as a method of attempted intimidation. And when those who really do know the truth refuse to be intimidated, the person with the unproven assertions runs away...but not without a parting insult or two to make himself feel better.

    In order to make us all be quiet, all we needed was to see a settlement reflecting 18K miles in one month, solo with the logs to back it up. Rather than seeing these, we were subjected to insults and names. Way to make friends around here.

    It sure does irritate you that two of us in this thread not only work with Swift, but are doing quite well, thank you very much, on our leases. Another individual does not work with Swift, but is making a lease work none-the-less. Seems to me we're not the ones without business sense.

    Good luck in your lifetime career as a company driver for....oh, I dunno....Werner? Covenant? CRST? I understand they are all hiring.
