Lease, new or used ?

Turning down a load doesn’t give you control, it only gives you the illusion of control. If you really had control you’d have the option to look at all available loads and pick one.

All you can do is turn down a load, piss off a dispatcher, and pray you’re not punished for it

 

You're funny... are you a comedian on the side as well?

I guess then you're aware of what the what the definition of managing money means according to financial terms? Just in case, here is the definition of money management for you: Money management refers to how you handle all aspects of your finances, from making a budget for where each paycheck goes to setting long-term goals to picking investments that will help you to reach those goals.

That's not paying your balance of each month and on time. But hey, you know how credit works, lol.

If you use your debit card with the Visa or Mastercard logo on it and run it as credit, you get all those same benefits as a credit card.

If I need a loan, having no credit score is far better then having a credit score.

Your bank and credit cards must kiss you really well if you enjoy playing kissy face with them so much.

 

You want lease, ok, take a new truck.If you stuck with Prime after your PSD you are a pure slave for Prime, even with lease you will be treated as such. Mostly will be hauling loads that pay 1.02 cents per mile and all money from loads will be going to broker pockets and Prime pocket.You will get none.It is not trucking, is s..t at Prime.You barely will make 1000$ a week with that so called lease(you will have few weeks in a row over 2k but than you will haul freight next few weeks for free, or will get 200$ take home).Prime watching your back non stop. You getting new truck to drive it for Prime not for yourself.Prime will get off you for reefer fuel, truck fuel, ez pass, pre pass, damages to truck(except warranty stuff), will get all money off the loads, you will pay for everything there, will force dispatch and retaliate if you will be stubborn.You always every single week will earn enough to pay for the truck,fuel, all fixed costs, but on numerous occasions your salary will be only 100 dollars per week, and nobody give a deamn about it, you will experience a lot of things nobody will ever tell you about. PSD students get trapped in 1 year contract and Prime will make big bucks off you during this time, everything is set up already, as soon you are in, you are looser already, thats why Prime loves their drivers so much.Not much good of a thing there. If you just need 1 year, dont do that lease. Go company, get 1 year and disappear. Prime has certain number of drivers that get good loads and decent money, but you need complete minimum 3 leases to get in that group to make money, amd still not guaranteed steady income everyweek.
As a beginner, go company. Almost same money, the only thing push your dispatcher for miles.They dont care at Prime how many miles you do, or how much money you make, they need you to go for a lease to pay theirs truck off. And at the end looser is you anyway. They will humiliate you during whole process while you leasing, especially last year as many said for you to drop a lease and them get their truck back and your already paid money for it. It is a Scam.

 

Someone is going to loan you money with no credit score? You are delusional. I pay my cards off every month and enjoy the 1.5 to 3% rebates I get. Debit cards don't do this. The truth is you can't get a credit card because you have no score and probably have to pay cash because you can't manage money. Your debit/credit card carries no balance that must be paid so you do not get any credit help from it.

 

Hmmm so.....

Mortgage payments & forced dispatch = comparable items

Makes sense.

 

Obviously metaphors are lost on you.

 

Yes (tell everyone) isn't it exciting how incredible rates are right now!! It's a time great to go into business.

 

How much first hand experience do you have with working with Prime?

 

You gotta watch out for those scams the trucking business is full of them but Prime isn't one of them. I'm happy here and I do very well here.
