    Looking for options/ideas to access a nice stepdeck. I am wondering if leasing to a company would get me access to a trailer? I was leased to Malone last spring but wasn't happy with how much they were taking from my settlements. I run my own authority now and have an older trailer that is in need of some major repairs. Bad credit, not much money to put down, not enough to repair my current trailer. Thoughts? Suggestions?

    Would you be willing to trade in your current trailer? How much, honestly, would you pay for that same trailer from someone else if you were buying it. That may be enough for a downpayment. If that isn't an option (you have negative equity/aren't willing to trade it in), leasing on somewhere is probably your best bet, given the other limitations.
