    No clue how that goes besides applying online, they will call you when you finish the application and possibly a credit check.

    That would be fine with me.Purchase a used truck for 30 k with 30 payments.
    I just don't believe the actual numbers I hear.
    Thanks.

    They use it to weed out the drivers who have never driven anything but automatics. Still a lot of manuals in the fleet, and most new drivers are going to get older trucks to start, which, as noted, are largely manuals.

    right now it's $57,000 for a Cascadia with 400,000 miles. $3000 down & $452 per week for 33 months. Full warranty up to 500,000 then extended 2 year or 200,000 drive train warranty. The amount down varies from $2000-$7000 depending on credit, how long you've been with them & how well you run.

    What amenities do the trucks have? What is their policy on idling?

    Newer trucks have inverters, bunk heaters, no apu, truck shuts down after 5 mins but you can be no more than 15% idling time overall.

    If the trucks don’t idle and there’s no APU, how do you stay cool in the warmer months?
