I will say in my humble opinion, there are alternatives and if your going to live in the truck this should be low on your short list.
I have a friend out of the oil field went to atbs did his year saved his money and bonuses and bought a truck through them. He's still out there somewhere.
I'm looking into Quality Carries, the friend that talked me in to coming bought a truck and went there he has some guys he knows went there and are doing good.
There are places that will lease/ finance a truck with 10% down. You need enough for the first 4 weeks if your single as most pay weekly.
Keep in mind you wait 4 weeks for your first check here.
You could also hire on with an O/O looking for someone to live in the truck. Bank the money without the hassle.
Break downs have been a big factor in my lost revenue. Probably accounting for most of my losses. You can't pick a truck or trailer and forget it if they give you a new truck at 923 a week. Quality Carriers sells you a new truck for 630, you own nothing here.... Oh they do give you thieving equipment.
If your still interested PM me and I'll give you what your looking for as far as pay.
A little context for anyone interested as far as how I set myself up prior. My family of 3 gets paid 750 a week my wife doesn't work we rent, have a car and my motorcycle payment and do very little in the way of fun. We spent a lot of time reducing our monthly expenses so I could take a chance at this kind of opportunity.
I am not living in the truck by choice and we'll be moving so I can get home everyday. If I thought I was going to live in a truck I'd have gone to work for QC.
