    And you managed to get money back? Reason I'm asking is that I may be in the same position. I hate to leave five grand in their pockets.

    I'm figuring on hanging on til 1/5/18, unless things really take off for me. Not likely given how much time I put in on the road.

    As much as I dislike Schneider, I have to defend SNI. They give anyone with any credit a new truck for a modest down payment.

    I always looked at the lease, well, as a lease! I'm RENTING a truck. I never planned on buying out the lease. I planned on renting the truck for a specified term to be a quasi owner operator. If I break the lease agreement, I understand there is a penalty. Just like an automobile lease.

    Now the part I'm really surprised about is that they didn't replace every so called "worn out" part on his truck and eat all of the mma on labor for their shop. I know my drives are 50% and one tire has been through the ugly forest, so they will hit me for all 8 drives and give me crap credit for the old ones. I also put a fridge in, prolly won't get any credit for that. They probably charge me to take it out lol. Other than that my truck on the inside is pristine, you can eat off my floors.
     
    48Packard Thanks this.
