On the Road to Ownership
When FFE Contractor Charles Seward found himself without a truck, the company offered him the Clean Slate Lease Program and he was back on the road to ownership. “A little over a year ago I joined the Clean Slate Lease Program,” said Seward. “I can honestly say I am not dissatisfied.” Joining FFE as a company driver originally, Seward received the miles he wanted and the respect he deserved. After buying his own truck, he drove for the company as an owner-operator, but when he lost his truck his options were few. “When my truck went down, FFE offered me the Clean Slate Lease Program,” said Seward. “In this program, I do extremely well, and the truck will be mine in June of 2003.” more
