I have a few questions it seems this is the position I got so called Lease to Purchase, they gave me a nice International Tractor and a Trailer.  The dispatch I got for the fist day on the job seems like there are still working on getting me my first load.  They also said it is a walk-away-whenever lease to purchase program.  I once again never did a Lease to Purchase.  What are your initial thoughts on what exactly am I dealing with.  Should I be getting my own loads?  Do I even need a dispatch?  Sounds like I might as well apply for carriers as basically as an owner operator.  Or am I still basically closer a company driver at this point.  Looks like I might have a dispatch assigned to me with the SUPEREGO holding company.

You are legally obligated to pay all costs in the lease but the company IS NOT obligated to give you enough work to pay those costs.<\/p>\n<p>Read the reviews on SuperEgo, not just from SuperEgo, like on this forum &amp; Google or Indeed.<\/p>\n<p>If the company provides truck, trailer, finds the loads you are not independent contractor except in the mind of the company. In that circumstance the company is misclassifying an employee which saves them $$ for taxes.
