Could use a suggestion?

I have a friend who is doing pretty good with Schneider, he bought a truck (lease-to-own) through them and is very happy. He nets about $2700 a week before his $500 truck payment. I think Schneider is the only one worth to do a lease purchase through as the truck is actually yours and your not renting it from some huge outfit. Hes been at it for 2 years now, came with a TK apu. Hes single and doesent work very hard, also hes on their % deal where you book your own loads and run where you want. Kinda like landstar but better money and the loads posted on their boar is to the truck pay.... I think its wortha shot.

 

Good Luck and Be Safe

 

As a divorced owner-operator, I was able to visit my son several states away from where I lived. The better situation was to go out-of-service at a terminal. The worse situation was a visit during an eight hour break when I should have been resting. Another problem is transportation and parking during the visit.

 

Is you daughter in Florida ? That can be a tough place to get freight out of . You might want to consider driving for an expediting fleet owner . You'd pick and choose your loads and operate like an O/O without the financial obligation . The standard accepted availability in expediting is 75% . In other words if you stay out 3 weeks you can take a week off . Wouldn't a full week a month with your daughter be better than an occasional weekend ?

 

do you mind if I ask which school? I'm from WI, moved away a few years ago.

you could make that much easy as a company driver. be carefull with the lease deals there is way too many people running leases you end up with negative statments more weeks then not
