    Dude the lone star is international. And the pro star and lone star are identical on the inside. I get you want your truck but as others said since it's a walk away lease go used and if it works out you have a $1.00 buyout vs $65k

    Taking my 1st bump (self imposed, but still a bump) on the head getting 2 know Mercer freight lanes. Came down 2 houston,tx on a really good paying load (4 this time of yr) & can't find anything 2 get me out 2day. Hopefully it'll b tomorrow. I came down here last wk on a good load (4 this time of yr) & turned around & got a decent paying 1 out the same day I dropped. Guess I tried my luck thinking I could do it again & got burned.

    South Texas is tough in the winter for us. to many of us old farts are allergic to cold, so any time you head to a warm climate you are gonna be way down on the board. If you are looking to maximize profit in the winter, stay north of I40.

    Last compressor I bought the core charge was almost twice as much as the compressor was.

    Depending on how long it takes me to get reloaded and tarped tomorrow, I may be in louisville late evening. Where we eating? No margaritas this trip, got to boogie on down south at 2.65/mile.

    How much are the payments/terms on these lease trucks, and what is the buyout at the end?
