And if Ruby does to take charge, She won't know the team well enough to be an effective leader. But their natural leadership, and quick thinking in S01 is what led them to be chosen to be their team leaders. Neither of them knew their teams at all (and hell, Jaune could barely even fight) when they took down the nevermore and death stalker.

I think they'll be just fine. If anything, I could see Jaune and Ruby co-leading their team.

I also can't help but wonder if they'll happen upon another straggler or two along the way and have them join up. If so, that could change the dynamics. For instance, if Coco popped up, she might would be leader then.

-- I actually just thought they'd pay to be taken to their destination like I would assume they do with all the other transport in the world. It's not as adventurous as working off their way, but I'd rather they go ahead and just get there. (After some time spent being budies, mourning Pyrrha, etc. while on the road.) The deeper the plot gets, the shorter the seasons seem. Where would they get the money? Besides, it would take as long either way. In fact depending on how bad the Grimm activity is, money might be less valuble than their protection.
