    hello everyone got a question I got a call bout driving team for a company on these forums something didn't sound rite to me 66 cent a mile for 1 yr then he wanted us to lease the truck off him. I told him I would think bout it and he knows we don't got any exp . He will train us for 2 months then we go out on our own. He said we get a 2017 or 2018 freightliner automatic driving dry van. I'm not sure I want to lease for 2 to 3 yrs or at all. I also got job offer with CFI in Joplin making like 52 cents a mile with more better pay and I think better training. what should I do both jobs sound good but not sure what way to go

    The company your not naming that "found you on here" that has dedicated runs from Chicago or Indiana sounds probably like a crappie Chicago area company.
