    Maybe you can find a local job and live in the RV and be home every day.
    Choose a city/town and we'll try to help you find something compatible with that idea.

    Seriously, you are that desperate that you are willing to dig yourself into a hole and risk even more?

    Lease purchasing is for experienced people with years on the road; very few get through a couple of years without losing their a s s e s on an LP. You need to start with a good contract lawyer to explain what the contract says and be very disciplined in managing money and truck maintenance.

    Find a local job, anything that can sustain you for a while. It doesn't have to be driving a truck, and honestly, I don't know how many years you have behind the wheel; you don't seem to get the problems with animals in a truck. It is cruel and really dangerous, not only for the cats to be put into a 320 cubic foot space, which is god ***** cruel alone, but also if you get into an accident and it is caused by one or a couple of cats, you are going to be on the hook for more than just losing your CDL.

    I am not like others here, I have experience with the bad of animals on the road by drivers. You can not control a lot of situations, and saying you can, you are either lying to yourself or just dumb.

    Get a local job.
