    Yours says 12? so i guess i am suppose to run out and make a note of tire size and motor size? I dont care what they are long as it runs
    seems your the one wanting to be a steering wheel holder and anyone wanting to be a o/o are lease will spend alot of time on the road i have bought 3 trucks how many have you had?

    bottom line if it runs good and makes money i am not to concerned with motor and tire size i more concerned with miles and money in the pocket i am one of the drivers that will spend 4-6 weeks out at a time then come home .

    Agreed most of the time I had a peterbuilt car hauler freight slowed to a dead stop payments kept coming.
    Lease i can walk away what do you tell the bank at the end of the month when you got no freight.

    if this doesnt work out i may get a truck/trailer later next year and try it on the box/refeer side

    lol wheres the muti reply thing at.
    I agree with you 110% the ones that dont mind working and no what there doing will make it either way. you go into it not expecting to run harder and stay out longer then a company driver you will not make it

    nothing against you Wacklin, but I see all these guys driving around these brand new KW's and Internationals on this lease program. I dont see how you can make it getting into a brand new truck. Seems to me best thing would be to find a good $30-50k truck and lease on with someone, and put some money back for repairs that would come up and keep it well maintained. Heard a guy on the cb the other day had an 84 pete with over 3 million miles, original owner, now thats getting your moneys worth I think.

    Wackiin has everything been as they have told you so far? Also what is the newer truck availabilty like. I have been approved for their lease purchase just trying to make sure all is as good as they say. plus what's your hometime like? I live off of I40 in middle TN which is normally a good location. Thank you.

    lets cut out the way we talk about each other, because your spelling is not the best!! as long as the man knows how to drive the truck- thats the only thing that should matter.
     
    Thumper Thanks this.
