Dart Transit Is sending me straight into bankruptcy

Yes yes we all know Dart has cheap rates, and you are making millions as an independent so lets move on, I make a comfortable living, much more than I did as a company driver, I did the breakdown on another thread to prove it, so lets not even start on the cheap rates thing.

 

I top mine off wherever its cheap, but I also run a dedicated account where I can get cheap fuel every trip, sometimes .60-.70 cents per gallon of the pump price, just paid 1.89 at the TA in Antioch, TN.

 

Dart is not the best but if you work you will get a check not the best but nothing like eagle are road runner, I leave dart for road runner a joke I leave road runner for eagle my god that's all I can say now I am back at dart yes 1.02 per mile plus fsc but all miles and it works I cannot tell how but 1700 to 2300 take home target acct, so all does that come here to talk bad about dart tell it how it really is I don't lie we two old for that

 

"Depends on credit"

 

I don't miss that head acke one bit
.....I don't see why anybody would want to own a truck
The rates are pitiful

 

Leasing is a losing game the only person who wins is the company. If you cant walk into a dealer and buy a truck under your own credit just don't do it.

 

This great advice should be told at more trucking schools...I cannot tell you the morons I went through class with that all wanted to 'own' their own trucks through the usual cheap freight megas....The ones I ran into later had all lost their rears doing so.

 

There's also the possibility that none of them knew how to run a business either that's why many of them fail... And while there are many of these lease programs that are a scam there are some that actually work in the driver's favour which

 

Very few and let me also add....unless that driver is committed to living on the road....it will never work.

 

I have to disagree with committing to living on the road I'm an IC with Sni and I'm home every week if not every 10 days for at least 4 days so it can be done but they have to know what they're doing in order to be able to do that hand afford it
