    I'm not sure why this is so hard to understand. Mercer does not do lease purchase on trucks. There are a few dozen truck sales companies that specializes in lease purchase for people that have jacked over their personal finances so they can't get a real loan. These companies are not affiliated with Mercer. Mercer does not care(nor should they) how a business owner obtains a truck. Pay cash, mortgage your house, get a bank loan, get a manufacturers loan. Go to a buy here pay here. It is not mercers business, and they are not here to hold hands and parent us.

    Pi would ask why you plan on making a change to flats in a year? TBH when I came here I was planning on doing something similar. But someone asked me why wait (might have been skateboardman but I'm not sure) and that made me think 'why do I want to wait?' After having a honest conversation with myself I realized I was a bit scared of too many changes at once. Not one to be a chicken I changed my mind and jumped in with both feet. Glad I did too.
    Thanks skateboardman or whomever made me be honest with myself.

    I just had a bi-lateral inguinal hernia repair surgery, doing my 8 weeks for a full recovery before going to orientation, I just don't want to push it and have gone all through this for nothing and re injure myself, my thought was to take it easy for a while doing vans and just rent/lease a almost paid off trailer then make the move later on.. It's not that I'm not capable or don't want to do flat bed,I just was going with what I know best and less labor intensive to start... Itchin' waiting to get on that plane and goto orientation!! you have no idea, cabin fever is in full effect!

    I know when I came over I was on the fence as well.. So I just went with the normal.. Van that is... Although I'm doing well I think I might switch next year.. The rates are so tempting and flatbed is on my bucket list lol..
