Anyone ever dealt with ATS Leasing?
I'm looking to lease 4 trucks. Having a new contract and want to try out how it goes first with leased trucks instead of dumping cash into it.
Any other reasonable priced lease companies?

Don't think they will allow you to lease 4 separate trks and put drivers in them, let alone run your own freight. If they do. Watch as somehow you will loose that run and they will take it over

Wait, I was thinking ATS from Mn.. wrong company
KellyTransport and cke Thank this. -
I was a company driver with them for over a year and my experience was absolutely wonderful, they took care of me in every kind of way I got hurt on the job and they continued to take care of me, but as of all companies protecting their interest, let me go after I exceeded my medical. As far as the owner operators, they were making good money and never upset or complaining about pay. Hope this answers your question.
KellyTransport Thanks this. -
Thank You guys. They seemed to be nice and knowledgeable and willing to make a deal.

Which Ats are you asking about please clarify

ATS- American Truck Showrooms. It's a lease company. They have several locations. The closest one is GA for me.

American Truck Showrooms have a very bad reputation. Just use the forum search function and you will find a lot of threads on them. I don’t think I have seen one post that said anything good about them. LandLine magazine did an article about them in 2013 you can read at http://www.landlinemag.com/Magazine/2013/Nov/Section2/american-dream-or-scheme.aspx.
Lone Mountain has a much better reputation although you will find some users that have complained about them as well, mostly those you purchased used trucks from them without doing any due diligence like having them checked by their own mechanic , having the ECM read, or doing oil samples. Used trucks no matter wherever you get one are always a bit of a gamble.bigguns Thanks this. -
Here is a thread from 8 years ago about their previous name;

I couldn't find it, but didn't a local news station also do an expose on them, or was that the fleece purchase industry in general?
