<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ridgeline, post: 6150305, member: 77050&quot;]I get it, but where are the successes? </p><p><br /></p><p>I heard of a bunch outside of the propaganda/advertisements but not much here. </p><p><br /></p><p>I disagree that it is a push onto the owner the responsibility as being the bad thing here, that&#039;s how owners have to operate, it isn&#039;t that you are a driver any more, you have more skin in the game. </p><p><br /></p><p>AND I got to be honest with you, one of the things I keep telling people to do is get legal advice before signing anything, not to go into things blindly, and weigh them out carefully, because as I&#039;ve said before this isn&#039;t about the money you make. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have a few copies of least purchase agreements from different companies and only one of them is worth the paper it is written on, but I heard that this company is mean and don&#039;t care (I won&#039;t mention the companies). I also know that the person who handed me a copy has done the lease purchase successfully and has now several trucks on his own, he couldn&#039;t do it without the program. He pointed out the biggest failure is not knowing what&#039;s in the contract FIRST and FOREMOST but the second failure is to plan this out as a business, knowing the company is going to hold back X amount, they are going to take payments out of the settlements and so on. </p><p><br /></p><p>Crap Bulldog, the second L/P contract I got came from a guy who failed because he didn&#039;t realize how much they would take out, but in the contract it was all there, he needed X and got X-maintenance and failed because he got frustrated. </p><p><br /></p><p>A third point is the latitude with loads, many of these programs I agree trap the owner into their freight but if there isn&#039;t any of their freight, then they are stuck. Another reason why someone considering it needs to get legal advice to know what&#039;s in that contract and if it has a clause to allow finding your own work.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
