well to be honest, the lease purchase sales pitch is, "you can be your own boss and make BIG dollars".....(how you make the BIG dollars is on you)
You can make this stuff up....

Sad thing is it took a week to find him. Even though they knew exactly what vehicle he had and exactly where he was at.

Laugh all you want, he was the highest-earning driver at Swift that week.

This is a weird one. I can't explain how the guy ended up with a Swift truck for so long. But, Swift has thousands of trucks, guess it's hard keeping track of them all. Trucks are assigned to a terminal, so maybe there was some confusion on which terminal the truck was assigned to.
And, I had a friend who initially fell for the lease program at Swift. When it didn't work out for him, he left the company and truck behind. The truck sat in one of the regular bobtail spots at the terminal where he left it for over 3 months before they finally moved it. They have areas for bobtail parking, areas for rigs in shop status, rigs available to be assigned to a driver, etc. So, having it parked in the regular bobtail area wasn't really where it belonged at the time. But,,that's where it stayed parked. IDK. Swift does a practical job of controlling entry and exit of rigs at terminals. But, lots of ways it could have slipped through the cracks.
And, using a rig as a bank robber get away vehicle is straight out of a stupid commedyabout inept bak robbers.
I had a friend once who's Uncle was a retired homicide detective. He was a good guy and had a funny, but dark, sense of humor. He told me once something that made alot of sense. He said, in general, criminals aren't too smart. Because if they were just alittle bit smarter they would have figured out that what they were doing wasn't a good idea. But, they tend to lack that last point or two of IQ to realize it.Val_Caldera, Feedman and drvrtech77 Thank this. -

Really dumb .
banks don’t have any cash .
I went by mine to get $5,000 to buy a car and they literally didn’t have it .
Plus every cop in the country including the fbi is looking for you .
credit card fraud and identity theft is where the big money is , and the cops have less than zero interest in that .JoeyJunk Thanks this. -
They barely even go after them, and if they get caught, they plea put, get 2-3 years and go back to their hidden cash.
Meanwhile, we have our Attorney General chasing down parents who go to school board meetings or oppose the school board policies of teaching their kindergartners about sex. Lol
We truly have lost our Way, but I’m not going into politicsVal_Caldera, Gearjammin' Penguin and Feedman Thank this. -
