I did the Prime thing yrs ago. I had an opportunity to buy a truck about a month after signing my 2nd "walk away lease" Turned in a brand new truck with less than 30,000mi on it. Prime and their collections people hounded me for several yrs claiming I owed them $8,000 for "repairs". I finally talked to them and told them I live in Texas. Texas is a non garnishment state. The only people who can touch your money is the IRS or Child support. As an added bonus Texas also only allows negative credit on your credit report for 4yrs instead of 7yrs. Its been 5yrs. I dont owe you anything and you are wasting your time because I will never pay you one penny of that money. They never called me again. Prime is the biggest scam in the trucking industry. Lease deals are ALWAYS a bad deal.

When i left Prime in 2013 they sent me a bill for something like $1400 if i remember correctly, i laughed and tossed it in the garbage, nothing came of it. Some time later i recieved a letter for some class action lawsuit, i signed up for it because why the heck not and i ended up collecting i believe a couple hundred dollars.

Prime is a scam. The payments are so high that by the end of a 3yr lease you have completely paid off that truck and then some. Then you sign another lease and they take that truck, fix it all up and put new virgin tires on it that you pay for out of your escrow and then they sell the truck for around $50,000. Probably more nowadays. Prime makes more money with the leasing scam than they do moving loads. It's criminal what they're doing and they've been getting away with it for years. They literally sell every truck twice. Also they own the dealership in Springfield so they're getting big discounts on the new trucks they buy for their lease scam. They brainwash those drivers so bad that they usually get mad at you if you try to explain to em how they're getting ripped off.

Whenever I was in trucking ('02-'07), Flying J hadn't merged with Pilot yet. I also believe TA hadn't yet merged with Petro. My company preferred TA as fuel stops. They were ok, but I absolutely loved Flying J. They had huge parking lots. They also had good food. Their pizza was fantastic. Love's, on the hand, always had extremely small parking lots. The fuel islands were jammed up the time (due to their small lots). I remember one time i had to stop at a Love's on I 40 just west of the New Mexico (Texas) scales at dawn. I had to park right in front of the fuel isle. All throughout the day I was awoken by air brakes. Has their parking situation vastly improved?

@@Love2Zooom Yes. Many are huge and well thought out if they’re new. Others have bad layouts. The other thing about old TAs and FJs is that they were built before current wastewater/drainage requirements. Newer truckstops have had to build smaller lots to accommodate drainage ponds.

When I turned in my truck @ Prime, it was in IMMACULATE condition. Washed and detailed inside and out. I opted to not be present for the inspection. I had another job lined up and had to be back in Florida. I ran freight to home in Florida so I could prep the truck to turn in, and also ran freight from Florida to the terminal in Springfield. On my final settlement they claimed I owed them a little over $2200 for “repairs.” When I looked over the settlement they were making “repairs” for things I consider normal wear and tear for a truck that ran OTR for two years. Long story short, they can claim whatever they want. I owe them NOTHING!

Theres a reason why its called the criminal injustice system. Only people who can get a fair shot are the wealthy or the politically connected. Oh about the showers, whats REAALLLLY infuriating is you wait about an hour to get a shower then when you get there and the water is cold asf lol Lumpers are absolutely garbage, complete bullshit that needs to be banned like lease purchase Oh those lumpers want you out of the door quick when they get done...NOPE ill move when I get my bills. Want me to move? Give me my bills. Aldi over by KC was like that first time I was nice and waited 4 hours to get my bills.

I’ve never had that issue, but I tend to avoid Love’s truck stops now because they rarely, if ever, have hot water, and it runs out quicker. I think both of these are done on purpose to keep shower use shorter. Pilot Flying J, on the other hand, always has the hot water I want and usually good water pressure. I’m not a fan of Love’s showers and try to avoid them. They do have good parking lots, though-I’ll give that to Love’s, and their fruit stands are a nice touch too. If you want to eat healthier, I like that about Love’s as well.
