    Yea the old truck looks better and better when you add the numbers up.
    2800 truck payment
    700 insurance

    3500 x 12 months

    42000 x 5 years

    210000

    Yeah we'd probably be on starvation!! He's only been there since October and I think he needs more time to get established. The income is not enough right now for that kind of payment.

    You can do the application and get approved, I think you have 30 days, then it starts all over.

    Are you leasing a truck, or renting a truck?

    You're asking a question I can't answer. I'm building a small fleet at Landstar. I honestly don't know what to tell you.

    The people in permits and plates in Florida can probably answer that much more accurately.

    renting one for a couple months and then either leasing or purchasing
