    Came off a 34 which was more like 44 and two stopper in Salinas, 19.5 hours to get loaded. $30 bucks detention. Then broke down 800 miles away..... Priceless....

    That camera... just kinda amazes me. I’ve had JCT on my short list. Guess I’ll have to really think about it.

    Not really that hard. You don't own it until you pay it off. Its kind of like how banks make you put full coverage on your car...

    True, but they try and say how you’re an independent contractor and all. Are you guys on 1099?

    Leasing company and JCT are separate. (I know I know). Three Diamond says that's whats in the new trucks when you lease, then that's whats in them. You can rip it out if you own it. "Bank" is just "protecting themselves".


    (Not defending the practice at all, just...that would probably be the legal workaround)
     
    Rugerfan and CannonballAA Thank this.

    The whole thing just makes me sad. I really really like this gig. But it's not worth it at this cost.
