Well good day to everyone here. I've been driving about 3 years and am looking at leasing but know nothing about it. I am wondering what I should study up on and what I need to learn about before leasing. Can anyone lay out simply what I should know about and what to watch for when entering in to a lease. ? And where I might go to for the information that lists what things to watch for and what expenses I should know about and any programs (computer) that might help me keep up on expenses and revenue ? Like I said I know nothing about running a business or leasing. Any help would be appreicated. Thx lot and be safe out there.
How long do u have to be company driver to be lease to purchas plan and is the pay what it says it is.
It's 88 cents per mile plus 51 cents fuel surcharge... For a total of $1.39 per loaded mile... And .88 per deadhead mile
Just figure out how much per mile it's costs to operate it and do business, then calculate, in cpm your own cost to pay bills, and you can see if you can stay above water. Remember no outfit is perfect and you will have weeks when weather or holidays keep you sitting . Plan for it make it a mini vacation.
I did pretty good with KLLM until they bought FFE and it was all down hill from there..I left KLLM in November after being there for 18 months
