There's a table in the lease contract listing off the purchase price of a used tractor with those spec's at different mileage levels. Depends on the original price of the tractor, and when the contract was written. My tractor was ordered and the contract was written BEFORE the OEMs started shutting down production in '09. At least for similar '09 models the purchase price of THIS tractor is less than what I've seen for similar units in Truckpaper.

good deal ironpony so you think you are going to just buy. or just lease again?
-
Unless it blows up in the next 9 weeks, I'm buying her.

Mine blew up. Its due for turn in in 5 weeks. It was a lease before the issued it to me in 2011.
Day 9 since I broke down here in NE. At least 2 more days in the shop till its done. So says the service desk.
FM was quite happy to let me rent a car and take my home time for 6 days in CO (3 hours away). Home time location was planned, just arrived about a week early... and without my truck.
A better crystal ball by the shop and I'd still be there in Colorado Springs... Im sure my FM wished I was still there too.... hotel is 129 an night plus breakdown pay from Prime since I got back to town here. -

I am a Lease so Ill break it down as a solo and as a trainer. Solo driving I start the week 1500 in the hole 1200 truck and fix cost and 300 Emergency fund. Usually after my 1st load im already out of the hole. A good week for a solo driver is 4000-7000 revenue to the truck you will bring in 1500-2500.
Trainer truck I start 1700 I increase Emergency fund to 500 plus 750 goes to student. yes I pay 600 to you put they take out medical workmans comp. when I run 7000 to 10000 revenue I bring in 2500 to 4500 a week. so I don't care about millage we get paid revenueWickedfire77 Thanks this. -
I have trained at different companies before, and they all have different policy as far as how long you need to be with them before you can begin to train, can I ask what Prime's policy is? How long would one have to wait?
