JB-HUNT lp BAD IDEA

went on to work for jbhunt as a company driver for 4 yrs.decided to become a lp driver as i ws approached by other driver already leaving the program i realized whats going on as a company driver i was getting the miles and a quailty pacycheck which was all good and about to change Leasepurchase is a joke the charges that comes out are unrealdo to the bad Economy anyways the freight rates that they set for you is up to fail you .90 mile who in there right mind would go for that and the "b" service what a joke you goto any petro and just for a lube and change is normanally around 199.10 out the door jb charges 265.00 flat rate tires is another thing jb gets a big discount on the tires that they get we as lp purchase dont get them discounts,fuel yeah a discount but in long run your paying that dicount right back to jbhunt pocket or to the irs through the fuel tax you pay all in all as a company driver point of veiw dont do the lease purchase because it will come back to haunt you and you loose everything that you worked haard to already get as a company driver for jbhunt thank you......

 

No i didnt persue the lp from Jbhunt, found way to many flaws in the contract to manyto list but in short terms just to screw you over at the end of the lease with the balloon and the maintence is not alll it striked up to be

 

NO way in heck it just wasnt worth it if you really needing money like you were a company driver yeah its not going to happen lease purchase with jb isnt worth it and tax time every quarter wow what an extra exspence i made gross 135k with jb lp and brought home after everything in a yr.was 22k bull not worth it i made more as a company driver with them and at end of yr.i still got money up to 5k back on taxes

 

yeah i should of listened to all my freinds that were o/o not l/p's they said youll go broke being an l/p but i gave it 100% of my time to see if would work like the biggest was fuel then taxes then maintence fixing someone elses tear up's man i was self determined and failed
