    your the only one I have seen complaining about the lease purchase program.

    Maybe if you get a few more years under your belt you will be ready to be an owner operator!:biggrin_2551:

    Fireball cool down. Man insulting a guy right off the bat isn't a good way to go about it. You don't even shoot down any of his complaints, you just go off. I would like to hear your side of this, but don't loose credibility by insulting a member who has done nothing to you.:biggrin_25510:

    YOU, Sir, are way out of line here. There was no reason whatsoever to go off the way you did. If we can't have a civil discussion here I'm locking this thread down.

    Anyway, I'm glad you are one of the very few who seems to be happy with with a lease program of any sort, even though there are none that aren't heavily skewed to the company's favor.

    I wouldn't move my truck for .45 cpm. It takes atleast .80 to move that truck you gotta have something for the driver.

    Figure up your expenses. Its more than that. A lot more if you have your own trailer.

    If I understand, thats just cost of fuel?
    No wear and tear, no truck payment plus all the goodies.

    Well maybe he'll respond in an intelligent manner to counter some of the things said. I'm interested in this post and would like to hear his side. I have no problem with a heated debate but darn going off just like that was kind of strange. Hold your rage, fireball it isn't necessary yet.

    making 177k is fine and dandy, but heck, how much of that is going to the truck and other expenses? Id like to know how much is is getting per mile.

    2006 and 2005 I grossed right at $150,000, I paid myself $40,000 there really wasn't any thing left.


    At $177K he should be able to pay himself close to $60,000
