    I would like to get some feedback on this program driver to driver. I see that Interstate seems to have alot of freight and this may be a good time to jump in.
    I see some general info on the site but wanted to see if anyone else had some direct driver scuttlebutt...... Thanks!

    Find the right company, right lease you can make more than company drivers, less responsibility than an owner operator.

    Are you asking weekly, monthly or yearly? I made 43% more as a lease driver vs company.

    I run on the reefer board at Interstate. I called and spoke with someone about the program. They are not leasing their own green trucks, but have some kind of partnership with a leasing company to help get a truck.

    43% more of what,would clear things up a bit..for example...43% more of 30k is a weak net income for a lease driver...
