I'm not a betting man, but 2 months tops and he is out of there. I think 1 month, but he might say the first month is just a fluke and then after finding out he can't get out of the hole. He say's " This shiznick is for the birds" or something to that effect.
Picked out my truck!

To the OP... have you read the lease thread yet?blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
$1700 A WEEK??? Thats 258000 for a 3 year LEASE. Save your freaking money and buy a good used truck from a dealer with financing from a bank.
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
Ouch 1700 a week. I hope he is teaming. Or if he is on percentage hauling a whole lot of high dollar freight. Can I change my prediction to 2 1/2 weeks?

Prime lease ops are paid percentage, fuel surcharge and accessorials. I recommend to all new lease ops to go with a Cascadia because of the lower fixed costs, but y'all know what the name on the truck means to folks. It's quite possible to make those payments work as long as you watch your fuel bill. Maintenance usually devolves to tires and PMs... most everything else is covered under warranty.

I still cannot figure out why anyone would want to pay every week to drive someone elses truck.
Dinomite, wonderdog24, blairandgretchen and 3 others Thank this. -
bobbybaldwin, Time4Change and hal380 Thank this.

Thats a bad answer. Your making a couple truck payments for the company your leasing from. Any good accountant and attorney will tell you this is a very bad idea and does nothing but benefit the lessor.
wonderdog24, blairandgretchen, old time and 3 others Thank this. -
Time4Change, hal380 and Offender Thank this.
