    May be old news now, but this program is nothing more than the Eagle Logistics lease/purchase program. Eagle was recently fully assimilated into Celadon.

    Also, the $1000/month is highly inaccurate. It is $1000 (now shows $1100) per WEEK. It's in an image at the top of the screen, so if you have image blockers or script blockers turned on, you probably won't see it.

    Rent to Own: Is this another scam by Celadon. Not one word about fuel discounts at the pumps. 90% of the trucks have the Maxforce motors. Five year lease and you only get to upgrade?? 75 percent of freight bill at who’s rate??
     
    BoazTrucker Thanks this.
