    Really? WOW!!!
    Decisively debating using facts and logic, uses insults to prove points? Who started and is/was the only one to throw an insult? I questioned your "in depth" "research".....showed you the narrow aspect of 4 settlement sheets v dozens (or more). You pulled up (from places unknown since no link for verification was provided) "facts and figures" from one company. Did you check those "figures" for accuracy, or just taking them at face value from being pictured on a company advertising web page put together from a recruiters perspective?

    I don't destroy someone's dream...quite the opposite. I offer a different perspective on what is coming, not the "all is well" diatribe from some recruiter's add campaign. How can any prospective lease driver, or owner operator sign a contract without knowing what could possibly go wrong, instead base a future of debt and dependence on something that is all dressed up to only show what "could possibly happen"..... advice and mentoring is only good if all angles and possibilities are discussed and understood. That means both the good and the bad.
    BTW....I don't even have a CB installed in my company truck.......I mind my own business out on the road, don't need to hear all the whining and crying of some poor schmuck that got talked into a lease and can't understand why the 1800 miles he does each week won't cover his costs and still bring $$$ home to the family.

    Any old drivers here remember the old north American trailers with the "You can own a new truck like this" sticker. I am a company driver from way back. I outright bought 2 trucks in the 90's, Got tired of the O/O scene went went back to company driving. What I remember most of my O/O days were those expensive tires, I'll take ten of those. Yikes!!! I let Penski keep new tires on the truck I drive. But I am reading this and wondering if over the years, If someone invented a good L/O program. I would like to mull it over in my mind, you never know.
