Anyone who wants to drive for JCT plz read thanks

im going back on the road with them on 11/18 been pretty successful with my last lease

 

they have posted the 2013 t660 on there website as available equipment but with no specs. whats the smith test all about?

 

They must have updated it since you saw it. It show it to have a PACCAR mx, 10 speed, super-singles. Decent looking truck, but they're still buying them as fleet spec'd trucks instead of o/o spec. I imagine that the payment will be close to $700/wk for it (if not slightly North of there) not including dp.

 

Yep you where close, $660 + $148dp ouch! No apu.

 

Yes these or at least this lease programs are worth it. There are many success stories around here.

 

Lol, if you work at a Walmart DC, then you would know about trucks being held over (for whatever reason), delayed, etc. Shippers and receivers all expect miracles for on-time arrivals but could care less what happens after arrival (ie delays) which causes issues down the road. Oh, by the way, try delaying a Walmart truck and see what happens! I guess they have clout...

 

Dang you, flightwatch, and your bug on the screen!! Very clever, hehehe! Now, to find some place to fix my screen (I smacked it too hard...)

 

Iowa 80 truck show is this week. Anybody near Walcott Ia swing by and say hello. I have a loaner truck (cascadia) and my stainless show trailer entered. Unfortunately my Coronado show class truck was clipped Monday!!!! Nonetheless swing by and visit, be safe out there.

(The following is written by floridaiceman's wife) Working for JCT -- the trucks they offered my group of leasers was really not good. I got a cramped, old, crappy truck that got horrible gas mileage. The seat was so bad I had to duck tape a small pillow on the back so my back didn't ache all day. And there was a lot of waiting. Waiting to get loaded. Waiting to get unloaded. Worst of all, waiting for a pre-plan. And strangely, even tho I made less money per mile at Trans Am, I made less here. Far less. In fact, I basically paid them to work here. Most difficult 6 months in a long while. Still trying to get things back on an even keel. Barely buying groceries. Oh, and they charged me for bogus stuff when I turned my truck in. Frustrating to work so hard and still not make a living.

 

One bad story among the good ones. Proof that there is is no perfection in trucking companies.
