Yeah, I guess a pink tractor would be a little over the top. Being a certified perv and all, everytime I would see it driving down the highway, that pink end on a 70 foot+ rig would remind me of a ..........(whispers a description in your ear)

I could care less about the color. It is only a color. If Swift wants me to drive a Pink Truck, then I will drive it.

Scottie,

The dudes ripping you off and you know it. The End.

Just to hijack for a moment here. I am teaming with my former mentor as you all know. He is about halfway through the lease term on his truck. Since I have been on the truck I have been bombarded daily about taking over his lease in a few months here so he can go lease another truck. Whenever I suggest going out and getting my own truck and leasing it on he shoots the idea down saying that Swift requires anyone bringing in an outside truck to have successfully completed a lease term (2 - 4 years).

So on the surface it seems like a legitimate offer he is presenting, says, I can learn the lease operation and business with no risk, short 2 year term, attain a truck with a fridge, webasto heater, new tires, may add an APU, Vuqube.

Some trepidations I have are that the truck consumes a lot of oil. He caught me putting the 3rd gallon in a few days ago (after about a week of driving 1000 miles a day it was low every other day), said don't do that, it holds 12 gallons blah blah it won't hurt it to be a couple gallons low. Well there is a yellow light shaped like an engine on the dash, and wouldn't you know it whenever I had put in oil the light would go out. recently the yellow light turns red and an annoying bells sounds. His solution? Turn the truck off and back on several times til the light no longer comes on. I went out and opened the hood and he was practically ordering me to close it and not worry about it that it is some kind of filter that just needs to be changed. Excuse me, I'm supposed to be taking over this truck but am not allowed to even open the hood?

For now I just try to be agreeable because I need the job, although I did not receive a paycheck last week because his settlement was only $26 dollars and this week was $1400 which should have been all mine considering... he offered half of that (actually $460 with $240 IOU) and will 'make it up' (my first week's no pay and shorted pay 2nd week) in the coming weeks lol but I will be inquiring from the owner operator recruiters myself as to the veracity of this guy saying I can't bring in my own truck with 1 year's experience this June 2011.

If you take over his lease, I will find you and drag you to a doc to get your head checked.

Tell him to take his broken truck and cram it up his.....

I know exactly what you are thinking . . .

I've never liked the color pink anyway. Too girly.

Scotty momma's gonna divorce you for non support! Better get out of this forum and start applying on line for a new job.

This guy is full of cow cookies. You need a job that pays every week. This guy should have the $ in the bank to cover your money whether he gets paid or not.

He is a loser. Misery loves company.

Once again this is a slow agonizing wait for the eventual collision.
