Starting Prime PSD - November 8th

Pretty much because of the choices available. The lease will be a short one, no longer then a year. I will be living in the truck for all intents and purposes(my choice-no family). The goal IS to buy my own truck and if I find the deal here at Prime OK, lease it with them, if not, I'll go back to Landstar and lease it on with them. My decision was based on prior o/o experience and I believe with what I've seen, I can make enough money in a year on lease to go OWNER/op. I'll keep ya'll posted with revenue figures, costs etc. etc.

All that said, I wouldn't recommend it for anyone just getting started...does that make sense?

 

See my response above. This is just a means to another end which is getting my own truck AGAIN...lol! I believe I can do just that and still maintain at least the illusion of being an "owner" until then. I had 15 very profitable years as an owner/op with NAVL and then Ranger/Landstar. I got out of the business for awhile and when I decided to get back in, Prime's was the cheapest and easiest path I found. A year from now I WILL BE DRIVING MY OWN TRUCK! Unless Prime shows me something spectacular, I will more then likely go back to Landstar!

 

Ya, I know THAT feeling...lol! I'm making a $300/mo payment on a Ford Explorer that I drove for the first time in 3 months this morning...lol!

 

Been a LONG few days! Came down with a stomach virus Sunday and it's been a rough couple of days..lol! I still have to do my sim test AND the Smith class. Seems to me that our upgrade class for lease is HUGE. May be 40 people? Should start picking out trucks today.
