Back on the road. Lease purchase with JB Hunt

At least you're honest about it. More than I can say about a couple of those fellas on the Prime Leasing forum. It's like a cult following.

 

Screw that ####. Pc to a comfortable spot.

 

I tried you warn you man. Trying to talk sense to those guys is like talking to a scientologist.

 

@UturnGirl

I just want to see you win. I can only imagine how funny your comments would be...drizzled with self deprecating humor. I’ve followed you via threads. It’s like good book and I want to know how it ends. No cliff hangars. Just a new season...

 

Yeah, the OP of that Prime thread was acting like $0.75 a mile bank was somehow good. He just refused (I think he put me on ignore) to acknowledge my point.

I just finished up my June numbers. If you look at my personal wage & benefit cost line, you'll see my payroll cost were $0.72 per mile on my monthly miles.

Which underscores my point to him that if a lease operator is only banking (gross profit) $0.75 per mile, they've only bought themselves a job...at best.

I'm an owner operator with my own authority. I know there are guys that do much better than I do. However, if you look at my wage, benefits PLUS my business net profit, you can see comparatively that what most of the lease op companies are paying is a joke. Especially when you consider that ALL liability is being assumed by the lease operator.

 

You're my new hero. I'm sure U Turn Girl's as well.

 

That is a great quote....When I get home I'm going to tell my wife that. It does explain alot. If you don't hear from me in the future she may not of seen the humor in it as I do.

 

Well, I'm not much of a hero...

 

I'm on the way to PNW right now, will you sign my truck please?

 

Why the sarcasm?
