    Ya were I work now they do the same thing. I try to warn these guys some listen, some get burned. Vary few ever make any money and even fewer ever get to keep the truck.

    I talk to the guy in recovery who picks up trucks out on the road that have resualted in lease defualts, and he says they keep him quite buzzy. As he is a company driver himself right

    Its kinda messed up how it goes down. They send him out there were the drivers been sitting days on in if not weeks, and tell the guy to pack his shet, get out of the truck and give em the keys. If the they starts to trip they call the police on em and have him removed.

    Then they'll get the truck and lease it out to some other sorry shmuck un aware of what he's about to get in to.
    They end up leasing that truck several times over until it starts to get paid off, then they make into a company truck until they sell it. I'm driving one of the old lease trucks now.

    Im just a company driver known Im not smart enough to get back in one of those lease opps again.

    You sure that you didn't take a single line or a few words a little out of context. Then add your own disparaging remark to hammer that home.

    Lets try this again...............I was a driver, enjoyed the job, was ready for the same thing many drivers are, to be home more often.

    I have put up 40x60 ft tents, in the rain and wind, it was difficult............Im pretty sure we are agreeing here, kinda scary isn't it.....

    Now this part, the part from you, PLEASE, don't be anywhere around me, especially the "area you mention", with a door either. Next your going to ask me to turn my head and cough, opps, disparaging remark from me, crap, I have lowered myself to your level. Crap, another disparaging remark.

    Lets agree to disagree, whoops, I didn't disagree with you, I was AGREEING and you still took it as a insult, your klinda difficult to communicate with.

    Have a nice day!
