    This company will not be upfront about how they do business.
    They only offer lease purchase and you will pull loads for Prime inc. 1st thing they hold 3 weeks of pay. They'll advance you a 1000 dollars first 200 then 400 and 400 then on the 4th week you get regular pay. Truck payment 1275 pr week Liability insurance 260 pr week trailer rental 3 cents pr mile, plus physical damage insurance, bobtail. 10 cents pr mile for maintenance but it's not money you can touch basically like paying for warranty. Prepass deposit 250 (prepass does not require a deposit) You get 82% of the load and Prime loads do not pay enough to cover those high payments plus they want to deadhead you 200-500 miles to pick up. You pay for reefer fuel, Prime will not let you take a trailer home so they will give you a customer to drop the trailer and I've seen drivers go 150 miles out of their way to do this. Same thing when coming out of the house from home time.
    Please do the research before signing on with these people.

    Nice writeup, thanks. Is it L/P only, or do they have company drivers?
