Is that price close on a flat as well? Thats not real bad if they do the maintenance if u have the credit u would be better on a loan but credits tight now. That is 350 or 500 a month not a week right? I talked to ryder once about leasing but i dont remember the quote. I have been looking around at the prices lately on trailers and wow they are going for nothing. I started out with a 1984 miller 40ft a few years ago hauling with my authority ran it for a few months saved and picked me a 48ft fruehauf spread bought my tarps headache rack, chains and stuff a little along kept staying tight with my money now I still have the fruehauf and a 48ft benson 2 trucks so it can be done. Im not real up on the dryvans but I have seen quite a few 45ft flats for less then $5000 some less then $3000 they are not as long as i would prefer but thats why they are cheaper and most loads I haul could easly be put on a 45 I have a buddy running 15+ trucks and thats all he pulls are 45s. There are ways around credit its expensive if u drag it out but u can always put coltateral up like a car for small amouts like this and pay it back fast just remember dont spend more then u make and pay ur equipment before u pay yourself work hard and the rest will take care of itself.

Found a 48 for $2k and a 53 for $2600 both in decent shape. Though the are spring ride beggars can't be to choosy.
Now to figure out how to get the wifes ring off her finger without her noticing.
