Firespock on with QC as L/P IC

I know you got a good deal on that Db Kustom truck.Was you able to hear if the guys lease purchasing from their affiliates deals were as good as yours.Have you ran into any of the drivers doing the keys to Quality lease.Hope you stay as happy as you are now when you really get into it.Keep us up to date on the new truck

 

I have a friend now driving for an affiliate, and he is going to lease a 2007 International 9900i with a Cat - I believe. He just started talking to the terminal about it, so when I know more I will let you know. Also Firespock is lease purchasing from his affiliate.

 

Well, just

Well, I did flatbed as well, before pulling containers. Rates fell of a cliff last year. Sure you can still find a great load here and there, but if I can't average 5K after fuel on a weekly basis, I see no reason to be doing flatbed OTR....seems these guys (tanker yankers) are still averaging north of that....

I love flatbed, but until it's worth it for ME, I'm staying put....but if tanker is paying good, well, go where the $$$ is.

 

I believe a premium is all in the eye of the beholder. My dad once told me, "it doesn't matter how much I pay for something, or how much I make on selling something. What matters is if I am happy with the deal." I use that with other things in life also. I'll keep you guys updated and everyone can decide what is premium to themselves. I think what you have going on is premium also. Your home almost every night and are making good money So keep rockin it RERM

 

Ok thanks

 

How long is a typical load/unload? How many runs per pay period? 3 to 4?

 

Not all of db kustom's truck are gliders many ground up rebuilds of existing trucks built to you specs. Friend of mine is atarti g the process now.

 

That's the way I understand it. Was rereading your thread and was replying to an old post. Thanks for all the info.
