Now, I'm no fan of England, you'll never see me tell anyone to go there. But, after trying to decifer what it was you had typed, I thought about this: if you had driven for any length of time, you should have known about CR England and Prime. Not to mention any lease purchase company. You will never own the truck. That's not how it's set up. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. If you are a new driver coming into this industry,you should never even think about being an owner operator. Learn the industry. Learn the job. Learn how to be a business person. And in your case- learn to spell. There's no reason a grown adult cannot learn spelling and punctuation. So before you decide to drive again, go back to school. Seriously. We have a bad enough rap out here from the slobs and all the other vermin we have here. We don't need any more illiterates as well. Thank you and godspeed.

I do not understand why Prime and C.R. England could be so Bad ??$1000.00 a week to lease a Tractor ?? Argue about every load you are offered and every settlement that you receive. Drive a Brand new truck and watch these companies buy up all sorts of smaller companies and turn them into the same type of profit centers, while the turnover rate is outrageous,and after the truck gets turned in they just add all the costs from previuos leasor on to the next one and put the previous leasor in the DAC report system, so that in the future they can have him come back only to charge back all the previous charges back to him in exchange for takeing him out of the DAC System,such a wonderful ,honest way of doing business ?? I can not understand what could be possibly be wrong with this type of company ???????

Oh !! and when you are all done losing money and ruining your credit and being emotionally ready to shoot someone, then !! they will give you a bus ticket home ?? What a wonderful company !! What ever happened to dedicated runs and lots of home time and honesty ?? Well !! With these big companies it does not matter and you dont matter !! because there is a sucker born every minute!! and they prey on it and they make so much money that the law suits are pennies compared to the revenue that they collect. Lease a tractor $800.00 a week 52 weeks a year for three years, then they sell that tractor for 40 to 60.000 and your paying a trailer rental figure in the mix and brokerage fee's and qualcom, tolls, tires ,services, apu rental and maintaince, no real time off because you have that constant tractor payment?? What a great life !! Your time divided by your net pay check after taxes and you might as well work for minimum wage for McDonalds, then in 20 years you could own several of them, and you would have been home every nite to see your children grow?? signed-- Dude Would you like fries with that ?????????

Dexter try to find a community college and go there. You won't be locked into any company that way and you will get much better training. Good luck.

Joe La Form: RIGHT ON! Seems that so many truck drivers have taken some sort of course in how to be illiterate; No wonder they have so many problems and are not capable of assuming any responsibility for their bad decisions! Maybe when they read the contracts they sign, they interpret it as they themselves have written it; No wonder, huh? BTW, I am no fan of CR England either.

Don't sign with CR England for sure. You will destroy your life.
This comes from an ex driver, clean mvr, military, college educated, and a famlily man.

I got my cdl with CRE and I had a good experience. I worked for them for 18 months and I didn't have any problems. You just have to want to work. I was able to pay all my debts and save 13,000$ working for them so take it as it is.

I am going to school for CR in a few weeks. My background is clean as well as my MVR and Dac. I am wondering if they do a finger print background check like prime?
Do all companies do them? If not than who doesn't?

I am really glad to hear something positive in regards to CRengland. All I have read about them has been negative. I am going to attend their school in IN. this month. I was wondering if they fingerprint background check?

To get your Hazmat endorsement you will have to get a background fingerprint check.
Some things disqualify you from getting it.
It's a government thing you ether get it or you don't. Only you get the results not the company! They will tell you that they know
Everything and will find everything but England is cheep lol.. Get your year experience and get out real fast!!

Daily Horoscope for June 1

Virgo

It's no good arguing with a certain person today because they'll always have a smart answer ready for you and you'll simply end up going round in circles. You could also get rather ratty in the process, which will destroy any chance of raising objective arguments or proving that they're a boring pedant who's only happy when they're scoring points off you. They might say the same about you!
