I'm throwing around the idea, can you go back to company driver if the lease thing doesn't work out?

Yep, one of the first things one of the head Charlotte DBLs said to me when I told him I was switching to Choice he sighed and said "are you kidding me!?!? Well, you know you can always come back to us right?" I was like #### have some faith in me man LOL.

wasnt though that he was losing a valued driver? making sure you knew you would be welcomed back? Not necessarily that you would fail?

I am very happy.......the way I look at it is, if you're going to drive a truck for a living, this is the way to do it.

1. The purchase / lease payments are very reasonable. What a lot of negative posters don't say is that the weekly payment includes ALL of your taxes, insurance and whatnot. In other words, you make 1 payment to 1 person and you're done with it. My actual truck payment is $500 a week.....or $2000 a month. Which is in line with what you could get from the bank (IF you could get the loan in the first place). I also pay $300 a week into a maintenance account....this is MY money (if I leave, what's left in it is mine)....but also, I don't stress over PM's and repairs....the money is there.
2. I run where I want to and when I want to.....I decide how much money I want to make. And, in case you're interested, it ranges between $700 and $2000, tax, tag, fuel, out the door in my bank account. The truthful average is in the $1300 - $1700 range if you run all week.
3. If I sit it's either because I chose to sit or because I did a poor job of planning. In this game, 99% of the time, you have no one but yourself to blame.
4. I don't like the northeast, so I don't go there. My CHOICE. (pays pretty good, though).
5. I can go for a week or more without having any kind of contact with a DBL. I only message them when I need something or there is a problem.

I really have nothing but good things to say about the choice program. If you think you might want to give it a try, they have a 1 year walk away lease. Lease for 1 year, don't screw up the truck, and turn it back in.....no muss, no fuss, no B.S.

good luck and happy trails.....

Any new news on the team lease program? Thanks in advance?

Opus · Nov 21, 2013

don't know about "news", per se, but I know that they do them. My impression (which could be TOTALLY wrong) is that one guy shoulders the lease and he picks his partner. That's all I know

I appreciate it. I recently applied for a team position running van with a classmate of mine. They didn't have any openings in my area for tanker which is what I wanna do. So Were gonna get some otr experience and find a team tanker were eligible for.

There is no normal. No one can say what YOU will make before OR after expenses. It's all up to you. This is Big Person Trucking.
