Want to avoid getting burned by a lease-purchase agreement?

You do business with people from Eastern Europe or India or the Middle East ,or any Chicago based trucking company you’re gonna get ripped off .
That’s their culture and it’s perfectly acceptable in their culture .

 

They are like the Ferengis in Star Trek.

 

Watched a u tube vid of a guy that was a L/O from what i could tell he was being pretty honest , transparent . He ran 11 months 1 month at home April , new baby . He was a trainer as well , his numbers were 233k gross operating expenses fuel , repairs , and lease payment 130k . Left him 103k b4 taxes but the kicker was he made like 17 or 18k extra as a trainer which is included in the 103k . So i reckon my point he didnt do that much better than company driver . Btw i believe he ran 121k miles .

 

I have found one exception to the rule. Jordan and his wife treated me very fairly when I drove for him several years ago.

Call it whatever you want, no I dont pull a van, but Its not very hard to make 4 to 5k a week, net. I know lots make more, and lots make less, thats with me doing usually 2600 miles average.

 

People often spread hate and blame foreign companies without looking at the contracts they sign. If you really want to give a company a chance and attend orientation, make sure to read the contracts carefully. Everything is written there, including all your rights and the company’s rights in specific situations.
Leasing is indeed challenging at the beginning because there are many expenses to cover, but remember, this could potentially be your truck in a few years, and you need to invest in it. I have one friend who bought 2 truck in past 5 years

 

He got hosed. I made 130k in 10 months as a company driver

 

Thanks.
Does anyone one know how long it takes to complete a payment for a truck in Kenan Advantage in present day today?
