    I believe the contract states 45 or 60...maybe 90 days. Your truck will go thru a blue sheet inspection and you will get charged for EVERY little detail that wasn't noted on your original inspection sheet. If you don't make enough on your last settlement to cover that, then they deduct it from your maintenance escrow. Don't forget your performance escrow also ($25/week account).

    Good luck on your future endeavors.

    Of course. It's your money. That escrow's only job is to get to $1000 so that if you have an insurance claim, it covers your deductible.

    Yes, you get whatever is leftover in your maintenance account after truck is turned in and money is deducted for whatever repairs and/or maintenance is needed to get truck ready to be leased again. And another yes, you get all of your performance escrow back, provided you do in fact return the truck back to Sapulpa. And it is in fact 45 days to get all the money refunded back to you....know from recent experience.

    So question. Does JCT require you to get DOT physicals at "Their" doctors or can you come in with one from anywhere? And if so do they have any special requirements or are they "As long as you pass a standard DOT you're good to go."

    You don't have to use JCT's doctor for a physical as long as you bring a current DOT Card and long form to orientation. Not sure how much time on your DOT Med Card you need remaining before JCT will require a new one, so that may need to be answered by JCT. As far any special requirements....I'm not aware of any. Just pass JCT's drug screen (UA only), and either pass their physical or bring your own and you're good to go.
     
    Kamkor Thanks this.

    Sweet, I just got mine done in December but I only get year long ones, #### under control blood pressure.

    Another question that I have that I didn't ask holly, how long on average does it take to pay off the truck? Or does everyone just trade in and re-lease with their special order upgrade that they offer for people who pay off?
     
    Manchumba Thanks this.
