I heared a rumor that Stevens Transport was going to be all lease drivers in the next couple of years wondering if this was true or not. Also heard that Stevens was 7 million dollars in debt to Marten Transport...wondering if this was true?

I would not doubt it. The lease is a way for a company to make a driver pay for fuel, truck, maintenance and they don't have to pay health insurance. They make more money off of the driver this way. The lease purchase makes one feel like they are making more money but they actually are making a lot less. MOST will never own the truck they lease.. And if they do get to own it the truck will be in need of a engine rebuild by then ($18,000)

"IF" this actualy happens, it would be no better than the current pRIME scam, or any other flease purchase.

I know that I am not sticking to the subject but I need advice.
Got into this business with my own authority (not a driver) since I was tired of waiting for child support payments to come in (they never arrived). I want to pay out 85% of loads and deduct insurance payments from the o/o weekly settlements and he/she is responsible for their fuel. Am I unreasonable? -
yes in my opinion

I noticed that you posted this in a few other places.You need to go to the "ask on o/o forum to get an answer for this.
