    Anyone have any input on PGT? Considering a start with them to put my time in as a company driver then transition to an owner operator. Which I’m thinking of bringing my own truck rather than getting involved with their lease to own program. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

    In my opinion, PGT is a decent way to start your trucker experience, if you plan to work with them, because you get experience, constant miles and you learn about the industry with really taking a big financial risk. As for the Owner Operator part, i really suggest to have your own truck, it's the best option, as some trucker may agree, leasing a truck is usually a bad experience. Most drivers will tell you, and I can assure you that they are right, you get some old truck with some issues included, short warranties and don't even get me started on the high deductions.
