    Insurance will be astronomical. Can buy a house for what insurance will be.

    For anyone curious, if you are on the step 5 of your SAP in Clearinghouse, Super Ego will hire you as a Lease Operator. Be warned, there are TONS of bad reviews.

    I believe ALOT of these reviews are from drivers who didn't expect the costs of lease purchase driving. You have weekly payments for Truck, Trailer, Insurance, and you have monthly payments for ELD and other things. There will be one time enrollment fees and you will be paying for your RTD test. Also, you WILL have breakdowns, and they aren't cheap, so expect that and choose your truck and trailer wisely.

    You can't look at this as a Company Driver vs Lease Driver scenario. You'll be making around the same, but as a Lease Purchase Driver, you'll be working for your truck.

    If you can run 3500 miles weekly you can make decent money. You'll need to have atleast 7mpg to use 500 gallon of fuel at 2000.00 weekly. You'll pay 1500 give or take for truck, trailer, insurance weekly.

    So if you run 3500 miles at an average of 1.80 a mile, you'll make 6300. You get 88% of that at Super Ego, equalling to 5500. After paying fuel and fixed costs, you will generally make around 2000 net. Not too bad if you're working to own your truck, but you'll be driving your butt off for that. It's a different game when leasing to own vs company driver.

    Anybody that goes, remember that you CAN negotiate loads and refuse loads. Don't settle for crap paying loads, you'll not make anything. You can fire dispatchers if you dont like their offers or they constantly give you trouble. Know your operating cost and how much YOU want to make. I'm calculating that I need atleast 1.05 per mile to break even, that's about .10 cent extra just to be safe. So at an average of 1.80 per mile, I'll make around 2k weekly at 3500 miles a week.

    How much are you setting aside as a breakdown fund for major repair expenses?

    Well, I'm basically homeless, so I will be setting everything I make aside. But they make you pay an escrow which I assume will be for breakdowns.

    Don't assume. Find out for sure. They're not leasing you that truck out of the goodness of their heart. They fully expect to make more money that way than by running it themselves.
    They think you're a sucker...don't prove them right. Keep us informed, okay?
