    If you’re looking for a reason to say no, you’ll find it, just like if you’re looking for a reason to say yes, you’ll find it.

    If you push the clutch in when the check engine starts to flash before idle shut down it should continue if not push in the brake and that’ll do it, it’s one or the other.

    I tried the lease plan for them in back 2000. Back when they just had 379 Petes and they had no limit on speed. They still had some of the custom sleeper Petes and spreads at that time.

    It didn't take long to realize i messed up big time. I left after just a month. I would've left sooner if i could've gotten by the house. I finally got a check just before i left for $80.00. That's with keeping the left door shut. Living off of $50.00 a week because that's all they would give.

    Plus at that time. You had to call "Fast Eddy" when you needed fuel. You couldn't just pull up too the pump and give info. You had to go stand in line 1st. Then get Eddy on the phone. When you finally got to the fuel desk. You handed the phone to the person behind the counter.The person behind the desk would give you this wtf look. Eddy would pay for how ever much fuel was needed to get you to a cheaper fuel stop. Then you got to go fuel the truck. Then you got the luxury too go stand in line again for your receipt. This happened anytime you needed fuel.

    Hurricane Express cured me real quick of this scam ran by companies. The owner Kaedon. Which was "Fast Eddy's" son. Came off as a cool guy, but the two were more like good cop, bad cop. Kaedon told you what you wanted too hear and Eddy would #### on you every chance he could. If you let him get away with it. We got into quite few times. That i wouldn't even speak to him anymore. I would only deal with Kaedon or some girl they had there at the time.

    They've had trucks abandon out in Ontario Ca. That the drivers sold the breathers off of. Just too get money to get home.

    They've always had nice trucks. Even these 579 ones are ok. They're riced out looking but some guys like the riced look.

    I would hope they have gotten a little better since 2000. Still, this place gave me nightmares and trouble with the IRS.

    I would think long in hard if i was someone looking into this company. Which was a mistake i made at one time.

    Sounds like many of the L/P companies out there. You get roped into paying for their trucks, fuel, taxes, and so forth. They use this and the sad part is that the truck has been paid for many times over by all those drivers who did the L/P and chose that particular truck.
