Need help dont know what to do

If you've only got a few payments left on the truck they really can't starve you out can they? The cost of going from a renter to moving into your own house is more than just payments. It will cost you maybe a $1,000 on the low side for deposits to get electricity, water turned on etc. There is a huge cost to just moving... The house ain't going nowhere and real estate ain;t gonna become a hot commodity any time soon. If you want the truck stick it out and put the move on hold for a little while longer. Really it just sounds like typical shenanigans any company driver or lease purchase "employee" that is forced dispatched just has to deal with. Not a lawsuit which is no different than what anyone else has commented. It is a combination of things maybe the freight is down or maybe they are out to get you, we can never really know. We can see it played out yet again why lease purchase is a bad idea all around though...

 

Well, the answer is right in front of you then. Use what you have saved to live on and make the truck payments until you own it. Put the house deal on hold until you've got the truck issue straightened out.

 

You will be better off if you drive company should make 120-150k before taxes live cheap on the road put 75k in an account I will say stock but interest rate suck right now. If you do this for 12 years you should have a million in the bank. That is if one of you have not killed the other in this amount of time and if so the state will pay your bills the rest of your life.

 

I'm not seeing why everyone is saying put the house on hold.. buying the house will lower your monthly expenses.. they're making it seem like if you buy the house then you'll have to choose between making a truck payment or making a house payment if money gets too tight.. If you're renting you'll still have to decide between making a truck payment or making a rent payment so what's the difference other then the fact that you'll be paying less a month then you are now?? And i've moved three times in three years and it's only cost me at most $1500 and that was to move from florida to north carolina. My last move was just a ten mile drive and it only cost'd $75 and that was because i rented a U'Haul trailer so i could do everything in one shot.. Would have been free if i just made multiple trips.

 

so if you were to continue renting you wouldn't worry about making your rent payment, because.....??? be it rent or a mortage, it has to be paid or you'll be living in the truck full time... so if possible please explain it to me cause i'm not understanding the general thought process in this thread.

 

I'm baffled - nothing new, I know - but $1000 to $1500 a week teaming? What was your business model? Heck, I'm on my second truck with one of the evil mega carriers and I do that solo ... One thing I've noticed, dispatchers keep runners running and sitters sitting ... at $1000 to $1500 a week when freight was good - you were getting crumbs then ... slow season, you're getting less crumbs now.
