    Really is the luck of the draw here just because i caught a bad one does not mean anyone else will. Im just letting the guys who do catch a bad one know that my situation sucks but there are people who are in worse shape then me so you better be prepared to fit in either category. Had one guy pull up saying how he had to be rolling by 12 the next day i told him if he really needed to be somewhere important that fast he better hurry back the way he came and he did because he wanted a used truck but didnt realize they dont keep trucks in ready to roll condition

    It says no money down but I guess you still need to be prepared to pay your bills at home for a few weeks if need be.. guess it would be impractical to make sure EVERY truck is ready to go, but waiting weeks for a minor repair is ridiculous

    We have drop space on that lot.

    I was in there yesterday doing a drop and the place is so full you can hardly move.

    A little bit of everything in there. Lonestars, pro stars, kw's, a few Volvos.

    Saw a bunch of ex heartland and ptl prostars looked like they'd just come in.

    The bulk of what's there as of yesterday are lonestars and prostars.

    So are you done with Quality or are you gonna try a different location? If you are moving on, do you have another place in mind?

    Its something i may consider but im looking for my best chance with the least risk. Some of their down payments are pretty stiff coupled with the fact you may be in for some maintenance costs

    I agree, one thing that is nice about no money down, you can use your would be down payment as running capital and an expense account until your first couple settlements. Or in case of breakdowns and down time. And the nice thing about a lease is the walk away part, so that you have an out in case it doesn't work for you... idk the answer but I think Quality is my best option, but if my experience is anything like yours I'll be done too

    Change of plans ended up taking the truck. It got finished right at my breaking point, still have a few things to cover tomorrow but i will be rolling out so against the odds i have the ball rolling. Will post my progress even though most of you guys who try this will be going with percentage companies, i will provide the ups and downs i go through with watkins
