So I know leasing a truck is stupid I'm not new but from what I read Schneider choice can be a good program and picky my own loads just turns me on. Realistically speaking would Schneider be better if I just went company vs becoming and ic? Money wise. I know tankers there seem to do good. I'd probably do dry van tho. Because I guess the tanker program is hard to get into and I'm just a screwup idiot.
Schnider choice vs Schneider national?

The choice board is not what is used to be.
With a lease truck you'll be lucky to clear a company driver wage and that's after you learn the board and Schneider lanes witch can take months. Schneider is literally putting nothing be crumbs on the board. Yes I'm a contractor and looking for an escape that fits my needs.
If you want to read about the rise and demise of the program go to the

You are far better off being a company driver anywhere. -

If you wanna learn how to self dispatch that's about all this program is good for any more for the most part... Learn the freight lanes and then make a jump to someplace else that's got only owner operators...
