    I am assuming they are team drivers? Or do they drive their own truck?

    I have a feeling they are already feeling the pinch of the low spot market rates. Prob got used to people coming in and buying anything they could get their hands on and now the faucet has started to run dry

    Sometimes salesman play that game, so your happy with rate and costs. Not saying that’s your case. They do get a kickback though.Got to pay attention at closing to ensure all is as promised.

    A high credit score didn’t help me finance a truck. Lenders really don’t want to finance you unless you have commercial credit and a proven track record. I ended up with Volvo financing at 13% with and 810 credit score.
