    I have read alot about PRIME on another forum and it seemed that they push the L/O thing onto you. Can you just be a company driver for a year to get the hang of things before even considering such a huge investment. I was trying to run numbers and i dont see how being L/O is very profitable, by the time you pay 900 a week for the truck and 1700 in fuel etc etc. I was looking into several companys as i am going to my local Community college for my CDL A. Just trying to figure some things out, i have been an Auto mechanic for 10 years now so i know the ends and outs of working commission. Thanks for you guys's time. Keepin em rollin

    Considering my entire thread I've mentioned multiple times I have no interest in leasing.

    I, along with many drivers on here, am a company driver at Prime. I have no interest in thinking about leasing till I learn the industry more. Even then, it's still something I wouldn't consider till way down the road.
