    Ever look at Schneiders Choice program? It's not a lease to own but there are a lot of successful lease operators that are very happy there. You choose your loads and when you go home. No dispatchers or load planners. Down side is freight out of Florida sucks but you can usually get something decent going in.

    Where in Florida are you headed?

    That's true, they have both, short term and long term leases. I wouldn't consider any 12 month lease a lease to own and that seems to be the most popular "Choice"

    Its a lease but you can pay the residual at the end of your lease if you want to and keep the truck

    Yeah I know exactly where your talking about. I spent 20 years in Clearwater. Good area.

    Check out the Schneider Choice program, the Schneider board is loaded with pretty happy lease operators. Drvrtech I believe is one of them.

    True, but how many people can pay off the residual after only 12 months on a new truck? I'm guessing the residual on a 2016 Cascadia after 12 months is over $120k, lol. Not really a lease to own
