Maybe he's been extra good this year, and Santa has something extra special for him.

I have been an extra professional driver for over 7 years. I have worked for 7 companies in that time... With the longest one being 3 years and my current on for only 4 months. I am buying a Cascadia with a rebuilt engine, new transmission, new onboard computer, new turbo, new front suspension.

I am paying under 500 a week every week for 3 years. at end of 3 years I can buy outright for 5k or continue to make payments until paid off.

I must remain with company for that time. interest is figured into the payments thus what I pay is all I have to pay, it deducts.

I want to be an owner operator and I realize that being leased on with a company that pays your fuel , handles paper work etc is just a fraction of the over all picture but its a great start. And to think just 7 years ago I was finishing trucking school with no idea that I had to bring my own bed sheets for the truck I would be driving with my first company...

Oh, I can walk away from lease at any time. I am expected to take care of maintenance and if any major engine failure happened that the 1 year engine warranty does not cover , they will loan me the money to repair. No its not a family member doing this, its an old timer 30 year veteran driver who has helped many drivers get into being owner operators and cares about the industry. I am the last person he is doing this for....
