    The whole lease purchase thing only works for maybe 10% its a total scam developed to pay the carriers Truck PMT its been discussed on here to many times.... It's a losing proposition I don't get it. why why why are people still doing this.

    There are a few leases out there that work, very few. Most times drivers are not reading the small print or are assuming the company will look after them. I never understood why drivers lease with companies that do not allow picking your own loads. Why have a dumb dispatcher controlling your money and future??

    H
    How much do they pay?
    Do they pay mileage or %?
    How many miles a week can they offer consistently?
    How many days do you have to stay out?
    Benefits plan?

    I would recommend going to Dart I was there for about six months and it's not a bad company

    You are thinking correctly from what I've read and heard.
