    You can make $$$ with C.R.England in the lease operator or C.A.T. Program, BUT,YOU MUST run it as a business.remember the money belongs to the truck.You must save as much as possable for breakdowns ect.And don't forget paying your TAXES!!! Quarterly. Lots of headaches. Thats why I'm now a company driver.I got along well with England while I was there.NEVER,refuse a load, Once you do, Your looking at problems.You won't survive long doing that to them.As they preplan way ahead.You run the system and DO NOT TRY TO CHANGE IT! You'll do great with C.R.England.

    One more thing about the lease plan. DO NOT EXCEPT A RE-LEASE TRUCK!!! I did that and lost my butt, I hade the truck about 2 days (I got as far as Laramie,Wy from Salt Lake City,Ut) and thr transmision went out on it. I had to get towed to Cheyenne and then sat there for 11 days while they fixed it (yes 11 days, that was not a typo). I had to pay for thr hotel all that time pluss food, plus i still had to make the truck payments up for that time and what warrentee there was left on the truck still left me to pay over $800. I continued to drive that truck ( a frieghtliner xl ) for another 8 1/2 monthes before i had to turn it back in to them ( i got really tired of not getting any pay checks ) and becouse of the bad start i had and the other 9 breakdowns in that amount of time i was over $5,000 in debt, good thing it was a walk away lease. So, do yourself a faver and learn from me. If you are going to do a lease purches, have a couple thousand set aside for emegencies and only take a new truck. You can make money at it, but you MUST have good bussness sence.

    Let me think for a while on that one. Like an hour or two.

    Hmmm......What are the good things about England?

    ........................

    (Half a day later)

    Nope. Well, their trucks are a cool-looking red, the logo is cool, and the Salt Lake Valley is surrounded by beautiful mountains. That's about all I can think of that's "good" about CRE.

    Best of luck. You'll need your best luck there.

    THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT TO ALL DRIVERS..............

    Lease Purchase Programs do not work no matter what company offers them.

    They are designed to benefit the company and not the driver.

    The opinion expressed here is solely the writers based on personal experience and investigation and will probably not be shared by the companies.
     
    dwayne, future driver and venne Thank this.
