Default What am I paying to company I am leased to?

Just wondering what is considered a normal charge to pay to a company that you are leased to?
Aside from paying 10-12% from the loads, is there an obligation to pay for a cargo insurance also, or that is a responsibility of a company that you are leased to!
And of course what else?
Not in this business, just wondering, couple of friends are discussing this, so I was thinking to ask on forum!?

Normally, it's the other way around! Just kidding. I got 72% of gross, so i'm paying 28% to the company. They provide everything else, except fuel, truck and physical ins. on it. Most importantly, that includes a customer base, and every week pay.

Not "in" the business? Then why did you buy a truck in 2010? And why so interested in the price a mere two years later?

Yes, I am looking for a truck to buy in a next 2 weeks, and comparing to year ago, they got really expensive, is this due to short supply, or just our dolar is devaluated so bad.

I bought Volvo in 2010 it is 2005 ISX, 10 spd, 450 000 miles, and bought it for 29.900, now same truck 2007 is almost 10K more!!
What did you DO with the 2005 Volvo you bought 2 years ago... since you're NOT in this business?

I'm sure your "friends" who are discussing this would like to know.

I know I'm curious.

Sure why not!? I will not forget you for sure, I hate bullies, and you seem like one...
I think they end up just like the dude on your avatar.
And you really do not have anything to do but research me, and finding out that my last post was exactly one month ago,( maybe it was, but I am way too busy now to post on forums every day) you are listening to Alex Jones
way too much...

There’s a lot of people who post on CAD who claim to be something they aren’t. I love outing the posers. I don’t know why Hobo would bother with somebody who is claiming to NOT be something that he or she might be, other than he’s bored and it was too easy.

You have to admit that the whole “I’m asking for a friend” routine is beyond cliché. The idea that somebody not involved in our industry would bother to take to time to sign up for an account is difficult to believe. The overly defensive tone of your reply to Hobo makes you look guilty as hell. Do I care one bit? Nope. Just sayin’.
