    Well, it depends.

    If being on the road a lot doesn't bother you, then yes, it is reasonable. But, like many other topics in this forum, if you can lease from an outside source and bring your truck to Q, it would be better.

    I've shopped around to different leasing companies the past few years and have learned two things, they are all different, but they are all the same. If they don't get their money from the truck payment, they get it from the maintenance cost. If a company pays more per mile, they short you on the fuel surcharge. You got to read what the contracts say.

    I'm leasing my third truck and make decent money, but my security deposit, escrow, and base plates are paid for. So I will have an easier time then any new recruit. If you can work hard for a solid year, prove your dependability, and pay off the deductions I listed, you would be able to breath a little easier.
