    to whom it may or may not concern. I recently was involved in heavy discussions with c.r. england about there 6 month demo lease and everything seemed like it was silver lined untill i started asking questions about certain mileage charged back to the driver,after asking recruiter to e-mail me a copy of lease so i could check it out with lawyer buddy i know,then things changed very fast thay were having trouble e-mailing the information to me which is a crock,with that said i firmly believe that this trucking firm is set up to totally rip off most people who do not have knowledge of the trucking industry.Its a sad day in america where they can exploit people in need of employment to maintain there lifestlye which ever it may be. this not intended to insult or discriminate against any one or more persons.But i strongly suggest that you use extreme caution when dealing with botttom feeders like c.r.e. hope this helps atleast one driver from chasing a dream that is bound in total misconception. 92gambler:biggrin_25510:

    can they not be forced by law to allow outside reviews of the contract?

    I think if ANYONE tells you you cant have your contract looked at by someone, you should drop it and walk out. WHY, if the whole thing is legit, would they get nervous or upset by you just wanting to cover your ### ? Just 1 of 10000000000000000 reasons not to trust big companies.....

    Leasing with CRE is a terrible idea, unless you are teaming or bring on a 2nd seat driver all of the time. When I leased with them I was either owing 300 or bringing in 300-600 a week solo. When I brought on a 2nd seat driver I was bringing in 1800 a week. So if you want to go solo never EVER lease with CRE but if you want to team then you will get the miles, I do hand them that they will get you the miles when you lease and if you are company you will sit waiting for a load while the lease operators are in and out in no time.

    The lease program at cre is a losing deal for the driver,the only good thing you get out of the deal is a nice truck,becarefull drivers once you sign you are stuck,they will mess your credit if you walk away.

    Well, when a co refuses to let you have an atty or advisor look at contract & even take it out of building...well, that means run for the hills.

    That's a big red flag alert!!

    You know, we see more negative posts on CRE Leasing, than any other company.
    And we read over and over how they won't supply a copy of the lease.
    How about someone whose been 'had' by this lease, scan and post it so everyone can see it in advance?
    As a matter of fact, it would be a service to everyone here if people did that with all the negative leases out there, not just CRE.
