    They can NOT make you lease a trk from them. They CAN tell you half truths, in the hopes that you'll buy into it. They can make you sit and wait for a company trk. All depends on how many drvrs quit them that week and whats available. Suspect all mega carriers with fleece deals play the same game.

    ya thats not right, why would anyone lease a truck thats just dumb to pay them for a truck you will never own and pay all the gas and maintence, I would rather wait on a truck but I just found out they have a no passenager policy so I will pass on them for sure.
