    Well my Driving Days are over, my Pete was repoed but not cause I did not try. Yes took some bad jobs and I made my biggest mistake in leaving USA Truck. .

    I do miss trucking but not able to do it anymore. I did try taking a Company job and got 2. 1st I lost money on, I made a run for them and because of them I was late on delievery so they refuse to pay. The second I made a run but next day could not walk. But they did me great. 100.00 pay for a 50 mile run, as a Company driver.

    But Coastie No longer trucking..

    I was stopped in hiring a driver by the Bank who had my loan. Said I needed to pay or turn the truck in that day. was only 1 month behind. Plus It would not been any better for me unless I had my own authority and running my own loads. Never got that far.

    Just looking for some feedback. Here mis my experience in buying a Truck from Select Trucks in Fontana, CA. On Jan. 27th this year I purchased an 06 Columbia. I live in Las Vegas, and took possesion of it Feb. 1st at Primm, NV. E-mailed the company I was leasing the truck to all the paperwork, and he inquired about plates in Co. and turns out there was a lien on it from DMV in CA. We immediatly contacted the salesman in Fontana and informed him of this. He said he would check into it the following day as it was already past 5pm. The next day, I send him a copy of what the company sent me showing that yes in Fact there was a lien of $4580.00 from DMV. He tells us on Feb. 3rd that they mailed DMV a check paying off the lien. For the next four weeks every other day or so we would check in with him. It was always we expect this to be resolved soon. Meanwhile now I have a payment coming up soon and still not being able to work the truck.
    The Finance company has agreed to redo the paperwork in light of our situation. We breath a little easier knowing this. However of course we still have truck ins. to pay. Which of course we have. On the 4th week and checking in still no answer to how long. Then on the 29th I e-mailed him and said the company I was putting the truck on with wants to know as do I what is going on. He e-mailed me back that he now has his manager involved and hopes to have an answer later in the day. Well the next day after not hearing from him, I call him and don't get an answer. So we call the 800# for Select Trucks in Fontana and hear that he is no longer working there. So we speak to a manager. She is now taking care of it and says that salesman no longer works here????????????? Ummm. She e-mails on on March 2nd and informs us that DMV will be taken care of Monday, (today). So I mention how I feel that since I have been wrongly sold a truck with a lien on it, how about doing a little work, I would like to have done. I get an e-mail saying that if I'm seeking an attorney she can no longer speak with me??????????? Really??? I never mentioned an attorney??? WOWWWW.
    Anyway I had to go get another company to lease the truck with because the other one won't touch it without a title number and no lien except my finance company. The question I have is after I sign my new finance papers would it be worth my wild to go after them for lost income. Even though we redid all the paperwork?
