I dont work for them but they do deliver to my DC a lot and by what I have gathered from talking to the drivers I wouldn't lease from them. The trucks that they had were junk, and they were paying more then what you posted for a 2012/13. They also have a large balloon payment at the end of the lease, The new trucks you are considering I personally would not lease. Some only have one drive axle the other is just a dummy axle and by what I have been told they have a problem with getting stuck. If you are planning on going to the Northeast dont go during the winter because you'll be paying for pull outs. They are also all automatics, have super singles, and very small engines with only 385 hp. Also, dart has so pretty beat up trailers. I have had trailers come in with the landing gear only working on one side, bad tires, etc. Finally, by their track record with us they are going to start losing alot of contracts with companies. The average load is late by over a day due to them overbooking. We are in the process are terminating their contract for the second time. I would think long and hard before considering getting on with them.
