does anybody know of a good lease purchase program out there?

CRST?!?!? You guys are kidding right. Pull out the KY and grab your ankles now, it will be easier, CRST doesn't use KY.

If you want to be independent, be independent. Choose a company that doesn't have a no-brain dispatcher deciding how much you make. You must choose your lanes and loads.

 

The best lease purchase program??? The one you avoid. Get some experience, and then check for a good deal on a used truck that is in good shape and has a good service history. There's a lot of them out there that you can get for a good price, and you won't be paying the quadruple digit lease charge that companies like prime, Trans am, and CR England use to rape their training school graduates who get suckered into those programs.

 

Think about this for a second driver. You lease purchase a truck no money down let's say 1200 a week notes. You work 3 weeks make let's say 2300.00 a week make your payments just fine. Ok now you decide to go home and spend time with your family. You take a week off. Guess what. That $1200.00 note payment is still due regardless... So the little money you saved you have to make a payment. You get back out on the road and guess what. Your a week in the hole. You run hard and at the end of the week your payment is due. But you don't get paid til next week. And your insurance will be due and let's not forget about the money you need to put into your escrow account or fuel surcharge. I'm just saying think about it hard.....

 

Well if you've been down that road before why in Pete's sake would you want to go down it again??? I'm just saying save up and buy your own truck to put on with a company... Of course just my 2 cents. Good luck to you!

 

If you have the status PM @Chinatown he's a straight shooter...or you can keep reading about how stupid anyone who pursues a L/P plan is...

 

What makes you think you're the special one that can beat the system?
