    Right on tarpsforme. One "good" report out of many bad ones is a ludicrous way to base your "trucking dreams". Its also a way to go broke. That trainer should be getting .40 or more a mile.

    Good question. As for me I'm a new jack and I need the experience. England gave me a chance so I went with them. BTW I applied 2 them b4 I heard all bad news about them. So now I'll have to stay until I find something better. I'm going to apply to a company that does regional runs this week and I think they will hire me. As for the .30 a mile thing then I think the way it works is that because they do long haul and give you alot of miles you get payed less per mile. I heard that JB hunt for example pays more per mile but they give you less miles. I really don't know much abt the industry so pls guys don't run me down.

    After all the stories that are being told by former cr england drivers telling how they were ripped off for thousands of dollars in their lease scam.And not to mention the law suit OOIDA has against cr england.Why,why,why would you take a chance with this company. Do you think you will be the only one to beat cr england at their game.Many have tried and lost big. I guess your just one of them people that go to casinos thinking you'll win big. Wakey,wakey sleeping beauty.Time to smell reality.Don't walk, RUN as fast as you can away from this company before your another notch in the england crime family's belt. Former lease driver truck 98155,I went $5,000.00 in the hole. Listen and learn before it's too late,all of you ....

    You can make money with the lease purchase BUT as it said you have to go about it as a business. My S/O is a priemer lease with them and makes very GOOD money, but he has his quaterly taxes taken out every week so it is there when they come due. Has a his maintance reserve capped out.
    The dentention pay changed a few months back to 4 hours NOT 12.
    If you want to get a pay check and not worry about anything else then be a company driver. If you want to make money whether its lease or O/O then you HAVE to make it a business.

    If you ask around about the White KW most in Salt Lake and Mt Pleasant Tx know him. Truck # 99434

    I saw a beautiful black Freightliner Classic XL at Flynns Truckstop in Shrewsbury,Mass.I thought it was a Premier Lease by the 99XXX number.It had the top of the line Chapparal package with the "BIG DADDY" Leather seats.What a beautiful rig.He told me he makes great money at CRE.He also said the lease deal is now a great deal,BUT NOT FOR NEWBIES!He stressed getting to know the reefer side "RUNNIN CHILLI" as he called it.Learn it inside and out.After 3 to 5 years as a company driver then think carefully about it.And go for it.IF YOU CAN HANDLE IT!

    You forgot to mention the CR England lease driver diet.It's called "starvation". Kinda hard to get fat when you can't afford to eat.
