      Landstar only has a few gray areas. First, they make you sign a contract that your semi truck is under their possession and becomes their property while you are leased on to their bus**ess, although the truck must be owned by you to sign on. Second, they put the lessor as the registrant **stead of me, the driver. This may seem to be a m**or and technical issue but if any party claims it is their vehicle, that would be the same as stripp**g away my rights. And if I were to be ** a place no one is aware of authorities would believe I do not own the vehicle. The same applies to IFTA and IRP registration which should state my name despite any lessor, which they have seperate fields for both entities.

      Mr. ******

      As an **dependent owner-operator that leases his truck to Landstar **way ** order to operate under **way's motor carrier authority, the State of **diana and Federal Regulations require Landstar **way to list the owner of the registration, which is the Landstar entity you contracted with, and the titled owner of the vehicle.  There is no field provided to add a lessee.  You should use the statement of lease to tie yourself to Landstar **way and the titled owner of the vehicle.  I have attached the actual registration s**ce the document provided was the 45 day temporary registration.  Pursuant to Federal Leas**g Regulations, you ret*** exclusive possession of your truck.  ** regards to the IFTA and IRP registrations, ag***, Landstar **way handles these registration pursuant to your lease with **way.  Otherwise, you would be responsible for calculat**g and report**g your own miles and fil**g fuel taxes directly, all of which is expl***ed dur**g the onboard**g process.  ** addition to this response, someone **ternally will be reach**g out to ensure you understand these requirements.

      [A default letter is provided here which **dicates your acceptance of the bus**ess's response.  If you wish, you may update it before send**g it.]

      Better Bus**ess Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the bus**ess ** reference to compl***t ID ********, and f**d that this resolution is satisfactory to me. 

      Regards,
