Back on the road. Lease purchase with JB Hunt

Dave! You answered my big problem! I've been trying to think of name for new thread and you nailed it.

I just got a final settlement from Jb lease + 3.39. Free money.. I will post the final year to date numbers tomorrow when the statement comes through.

I just finished training orientation and got assigned company truck today so I will wrap this thread up with that final statement and begin new thread then as well.

Here we go.....

 

I think you jumped into this conversation late.

 

Here is a screenshot of final final settlement with ytd

60k looks like a lot for 10.5 months or 46 weeks but 1/3 goes for taxes and other truck repairs and expenses.

That breaks down to 40k take home or an average of $870 a week. With a bunch of headache and stress.

I said the reason I was lease operator was because I enjoyed freedom and privilege associated and figured pay was about the same as company driver but that money is low even for local home daily.

I was not trying to buy that overpriced truck and latest break down fiasco was more than I could stomach.

If they send me a $10,000 get out bill (which is what I'm expecting) that takes this whole flippin' mess down to $30k. Would you like fries with that?

I will give you details on get out bill when TEL sends it in January. In the meanwhile I will begin new thread "Back on the Rail with JB Hunt" (Thanks @Dave_in_AZ ) tomorrow. Hope to see all my old friends, and trolls too, over there.
