Every truck lender's nightmare, in four acts.

01

The truck goes dark.

Driver walks. GPS pings a truck stop 600 miles away. Nobody's answering.

02

The payment doesn't come.

Monthly billing means you find out 30 to 60 days late, long after the truck stopped earning.

03

The auction calls.

Tow. Storage. Recondition. Fees. A rig with no service records sells at a discount.

04

The deficiency stays.

The truck is gone. The balance isn't. And the write-off lands on your desk.

$150K → under $100K

One industry analysis: a $150,000 truck financed at 80% LTV in early 2023 now liquidates below $100,000, leaving a $20,000+ deficiency after repo costs. Some banks have quit equipment lending entirely. Source

There's a better way to lend

More than a financed truck.

Valor Finance Partners get settlement-deducted payments, live performance insights, driver occupancy and truck health. We keep the truck earning and hold drivers accountable.

The Keys to our success

Six layers between you and a loss.

Weekly payments

Deducted from settlement before the driver is paid. You get paid fast and often.

Performance data

Revenue, occupancy and mechanical health every week. See trouble in days, not after a missed month.

Service records

We organize and pay for maintenance and repairs, and keep every report and invoice on file.

Warranty & legal use

Coverage tracked. Equipment registered, insured, inspected and run legally.

Maintenance Savings

A weekly reserve, held by your institution, so a needed repair never gets pushed off or puts a payment at risk.

Warranty offerings

Extended warranty options guard against engine, aftertreatment and transmission bills.

Same driver. Two outcomes.

What happens when a driver walks?

30
days

Driver leaves? We reseat the truck.

No repo. No auction. Valor typically places a vetted, qualified driver in a vacant seat within 30 days, and the payments keep coming.

How we underwrite
Work Ethic + Work History > Credit Score

Credit scores don't make on-time deliveries. Professionals do. Good habits cut costs, catch problems early and add years to a truck's life.

Workmanship is a true indicator of success, not credit scores.

Double-vetted

We vet the driver. And the authority they sign onto.

A great driver on a bad authority still loses money. So we check both before your truck turns a wheel.

The driver

  • Previous work experience, verified with prior carriers
  • Bank statements, to confirm financial health
  • Professional and personal references
  • Safety record and minimum occupancy commitment

The authority

  • BASIC scores that could cut the carrier’s freight and income
  • Authority and insurance concerns, including conditional safety ratings
  • ISS scores that trigger inspections and lost time
  • Lease costs that work against the driver: high trailer rent, poor fuel discounts, or lanes in high-cost areas with elevated fuel and tolls
The result: your borrower isn’t one bad score, one insurance lapse or one bad lease away from losing income. And neither are you.
How it works

Four steps. Zero guesswork.

1

We vet

Driver work history, bank statements and references, plus the authority they sign onto.

2

You fund

Start with a pilot. Weekly deductions and Maintenance Savings begin day one.

3

We manage

Dispatch, settlement, maintenance, compliance and reseating, every week.

4

You review

Weekly remittance reports and a quarterly scorecard on every unit.

Lender questions

Straight answers.

Lend on the work. Not the score.
