    Hey guys need to know what kind of drug test PTL does, and how there lease purchase program is. And before anyone goes off about the drug test question I had cancer and did chemo and was cured, but it has messed with my system and makes my test show weird things on hair test it don't show drugs but something weird. But anyway thanks in advance for any any advice

    Unless their policy has changed recently, PTL does urine test.
    I don't recommend lease/purchase with any company; when you take home time or vacation time the bills start adding up fast.

    lease purchase is my only option because of my previous cancer problem I'm a high risk for a company truck buck if I lease one then it would be on me if anything happens

    Who ever fed you that line of bull is full of it , if you can pass a dot physical then there isn't even a need to inform future employers of your medical past

    That's correct. With lease purchase, you still must pass the same physical, etc. as a company driver. Actually, a lease purchase driver is just a company driver paying the bills for the trucking company.
    Attend a 160 hr. cdl school and several companies will hire you and won't even have to take another physical; they accept your cdl school physical. They will check your blood pressure and do a urine test though.

    Most of those have a lease program if you insist on it.

    Seems as if you're revealing too much information.

    The last job I had driving layed me off so I could get better then fired me and when they call them to verify I worked there and ask why they fired me they tell them I don't tell them anything about it myself
