Thank you for this video I’m with usx on a dedicated route but am not getting any miles, looking to go LP I hate that the trucks don’t have an app like the variant ones have you asked them about installing an spy at all?
How are u making out. I'm thinking of coming on in March as Lp and after tax fuel and payments for truck what can I exspect for pay? I can run 700 miles a day with my other company governed at 80?
So when I was solo i was bringing home 1200-1500.. lately I've been training my teammate, training I was bringing home 2300-2900. So if you think about training I would do it.
Yeah its both. Big part is you get paid all miles driven. So I usually do super solo, where he drives his hours then I hop in the seat and I drive 3 or 4 hours. And then once yall are in team training status you get all those miles. Plus the additional trainer pay
20 dollars a day. And you are paid all miles driven, his and yours. Plus other bonuses when your trainee upgrades. I'd talk to a recruiter to make sure what all the pay and bonuses are.
@@ustcteam6757 nice! I'm just trying to learn as much as I can before I commit.. so as far as teams go. Are you both making a payment and who gets the truck in the end? If your truck had 350,000 when you leased it and it takes 4 years to pay it off. Then in theory it will have over 750,000? When will it need to be rebuilt?
Yes in theory, but we will just trade in for a newer one. So since I was here first and signed all paper work it will technically be mine, he technically works for me. I will have to give him a check every week once he is done training. I do know they will send me a new lease agreement once we are in full team status after his training because they will make the payment more.
@@youngsiles17 that's a good schedule. I had a chance to work that schedule if I would've went and worked for Pitney Bowes. The route was given to another driver though unfortunately.
@@ustcteam6757 thank you for the fast response! That’s not bad at all. Personally I would just cruise at 65 mph to save fuel good to know you have that little extra speed to pass the 4 wheelers.
Hay my son is starting lease we live in Carlisle pa he went to Shippensburg pa term for training now they want to send him out to Chicago for a truck because there's none in the pa yard did they do that to you.
No because I went to Springfield, Ohio for mine and they had 2 truck for me to pick from and I liked one of them. If I didn't want either I would of had to go else where to get one. So yes that is normal
@@ustcteam6757 thanks for the come back am be we can learn something too he was with dart and had a bad truck so here we are number 2 try again . I drove for about 10 or so yrs I don't no more thanks be safe
I have been busy the last couple of days just letting you know that we need more truck drivers like you. This is the way I was when I drove truck now I helping my son get off the ground . GOD BLESS
No I work at a different company but they don’t offer leasing so I’m trying to find a good company that has leasing right now I drive around 3200-4,000 miles a week coast to coast nearly so I’m wondering will I still be able to drive that and make good money with them and lease
@@ustcteam6757 is that net like after all expenses? I’m trying to make sure if I switch I’ll make net so much income after all expenses as said above right now I drive a lot of miles so driving I’m not worried about but what I’m worried about is all the extra cost and if I’ll still be able to net 1,500-2,000 a week if I new 100% I could I will switch this week lol to have opportunity to buy truck and make money net
You lasted 4 months doing this lol I don't know why y'all work for these shit companies doing these shit leases, they set you up to fail, very rarely do you hear someone paying those trucks off. You pay $1000/week I pay $1500/month lol
Because your misconception of what and how this program works and it's purpose. This lease purchase program isn't for you to make a lot of money while paying off a truck. It's for you to make SOME money and pay off a truck in 4 years, period. Idk how yall get this idea of becoming Rich while on a lease purchase program, definitely not the purpose of it. But thank you for your opinion.
It people like you that mess it up for the industry how much they paying you a dollar a mile 😂😂 you can go to landstar are F2F and bring home 3-7k a week to dumb for going there
Well if you will get the loan to pay off my truck I will go to landstar now..... let me know when you need my account number so you can transfer the money. I'll be waiting
Nice set up man👌🏾👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
This is our old truck. But yes it was nice.
Looking forward great 👍 truck 😊
We are no longer there
Thank you for this video I’m with usx on a dedicated route but am not getting any miles, looking to go LP I hate that the trucks don’t have an app like the variant ones have you asked them about installing an spy at all?
. Usx has an app.
And LP had dedicated also. And different accounts. You don't have to just be otr
@@ustcteam6757 I meant apu sorry auto correct
Yes I totally agree. I would love to have an apu!!!
@@ustcteam6757 I was asking if you asked if they were able to or plan to install apu’s on the usx side
Does the USX lease program include a balloon payment? What’s your payment?
No it doesn't. No money down, no credit check, no Balloon.
Well that has changed because wasn’t like that back in 2016 when I was working for them.
Do they have a no touch freight routes? Thanks
Yes. I don't touch freight. That's only family dollar and dollar general
Does your truck have a driver facing camera?
No
At least u making more than a company driver bro
Yeah definitely!!! Specially now at this company.
So if I stay out 4 weeks at a time how much do you think I could bring home with lease purchase.
Which company are you referring to?
@ustcteam6757 US XPRESS of course I start my orientation tomorrow.
@HakeemTheDream616 I don't know what the money looks like over there. We are at covenant now. We haven't been at usx in over a year

I like your fridge where you get?
That one we got at Menard in Ohio. But lowes and homedept should have them
I’m thinking about going lease through USX, worth it?
In my situation yes. How long are you wanting to stay out?
Reason I ask is because the longer you stay out, the better you do.
So that truck will be 100% yours when its paid for?
Yes. Once you pay it off, they send you the title.

Do the trucks come with a. Tv
No. I installed that myself.
How much do you think you can make your first year..
That all depends on how long you stay out. You could do 80,000 if you busted ass
With is about 1500 a week
Is this still relevant cause as USX company home weekly i gross 85k so is it more now?? I only work 4 days and get 3 days off
@@youngsiles17 that's a good schedule. I had a chance to work that schedule if I would've went and worked for Pitney Bowes. The route was given to another driver though unfortunately.
Does it come with fridge?
Are you talking about usxpress or TEL?
Are your trucks governed ? As a lease operator
Yes they are set at 70.
@@ustcteam6757 thank you for the fast response! That’s not bad at all. Personally I would just cruise at 65 mph to save fuel good to know you have that little extra speed to pass the 4 wheelers.
No problem at all! And I totally agree.
@@ustcteam6757 quick question can you tell your dispatcher which states you want to be in? I would only want to be in TX, OK, LA, AR.
No not really. They send you were ever.
Why you choose US Xpress?
It was just my first company back when i started driving. And they don't require experience since my teammate is fresh out of school.
Question how many miles does us xpress keep their trucks
For lease purchase or company trucks?
lease
The milage depends on the year etc. Which will make the price of the truck go up or down.
Mine was a 2020 with 349,000. My payment is 649 a week
What are the payments?
They all depend on miles and year.
Hay my son is starting lease we live in Carlisle pa he went to Shippensburg pa term for training now they want to send him out to Chicago for a truck because there's none in the pa yard did they do that to you.
No because I went to Springfield, Ohio for mine and they had 2 truck for me to pick from and I liked one of them. If I didn't want either I would of had to go else where to get one. So yes that is normal

If they fly you to Chicago IL does someone from the terminal meet you at the airport or do you need a ride from there do you think
I have been busy the last couple of days just letting you know that we need more truck drivers like you. This is the way I was when I drove truck now I helping my son get off the ground . GOD BLESS
They will Uber him from airport. And thank you, I appreciate that

I was there 10 months. Decided to leave bc we were putting too many miles on the truck and it wouldn't of been worth anything once we paid off.
Lease purchases are a scam all of them are you do not make more money you actually make less and it does not make you a owner operator
