My cousin was recently able to rent a truck w/ sleeper equipped from a private owner. I didn’t know that was a thing, but I can imagine with the astronomical prices SFI, Ryder and Penske are trying to charge as well as the truck shortage.
I spoke to SFI today, and they were talking about their lease is per week and due to the truck shortage wait times are about 4 months out. That wasn’t the bad part, the bad part was they quoted me $1020-$1100 per week! No way!
At this time I’m searching for private owners or even O/O who either have an extra truck, or are looking to retire but still bring in some monthly income on their truck.
I run bulk tanker so the truck would have to have a compressor and pump.

Just get a loan from the bank & buy the truck. Why make 3 or 4 monthly payments in a single month?
When i bought my truck, the monthly payment was less than your low end weekly payment from sfi -

how can you expect to pay 1,000-1,500 per week & succeed if you can afford to pay 1,000-1,200 once per month?ProfessionalNoticer Thanks this. -
Do you have an active MC and a million dollar GL policy with 75k PD? Do you have an active IRP and IFTA account with your base state set up?
