    It doesn't sound too bad on the money end. Except like you said those weeks of family emergencies. I was thinking of going over there. Do they allow you to buy the truck & what is the balloon payment at end, if any?

    I'm going to be very honest with you- avoid Hirschbach like the plague right now. Sit back and wait it out. Hirschbach is going thru growing pains. Lease purchase is 3 years with a 40-50 K balloon payment

    Are you still making a grand a week after expenses? Do you plan to complete the lease and buy the truck for $45k?

    Recruiter keeps calling me. I was thinking about calling back. What kind of growing pains and what is the effect on miles/money?

    I'm right at 1k a week. Since my post about pay, I had 3 paychecks under 1k. Usually I'm 1k-1250 on average. I'll have to update my post with pay and all that here soon. I just got home after a very rough week and just been chilling with family.

    When it comes to companies, "growing pains" is PC for mismanagement.

    Also, no I won't complete the lease purchase here. I have been consistently lied to Lately - and company has taken a turn for the worse in my opinion. Results will vary person to person. However, it's enough for me to say that's it... Enough is enough.
    My DM is great but between the safety department , the driver services who play a big role in things, load planners, etc I'll end up walking away. Too much crap. Not enough money

    Couldn't put it any better and they are very inconsistent. Everything changes overnight
