What am I missing?

Yeah, no I'm not making excuses I just know exactly what I have to work with up front and the total combined cost of getting started has to remain... well under that. I'll have a preliminary insurance quote in the morning, waiting on that call.

 

PharmPhail:
I saw the truck 1pod is talking about, and to me not seeing it in person,
it is a good deal. For one it has a overhaul with papers, and it looks as though it was fairly well taken care of. So here are some other pros, it is cheaper, and quicker to pay of, and your insurance is going to be a
lot cheaper. I would give it more consideration then those you have on your page. IMO

 

Thats a ''new'' motor...reman from detroit with 400,000 on motor with papers...he prolly take 6,000 for it..killer deal...i should get it but i hate landstar right now..lol,lol

 

As you know, I am certainly no expert on going out on your own. seen a lot of people make it and seen some who didnt.
but, your points are so valid. not just this post but all of them.
the one that really caught my eye was about the truck being a tool. it is just that a tool. if its a cool truck and it works for you thats great, but again you're right its a tool.

 

I am no liar and i will be honest.I may have to choice to do that out of kansas city so i can take care of things around here..Meanwhile i can pick up some other hours doing other things...

Yes, to me it all sucks to work for big companies..but they have health care for 7/7 and they have my hometime for me..i would only ''hope'' they could do 3,500 for my 7 days of time..forgot to mention they offered me 38 cents a mile i am pretty sure thats what she said.

 

Hey come ON NOW that whole truck is a tool thing is MINE from like 500 posts ago.

Don't make me out to be some pie in the sky daydreamer for looking at a aero truck for 20 stinkin K!

 

I am pretty sure she offered me 38-39 cents a mile and health care.

 

And the new ones break down too, then off to a dealer you go, hopefully they have the parts in stock...

 

We have all talked about the truck being a tool, all of us. You, 1POD, me and a zillions others on here.

No one and I mean no one is making you out to be a pie in the sky daydreamer. If no one had any dreams this country would still be woods and fields.
