The company does 240,000 and the take home pay is for the owner is 90,000. The sale includes the truck and and a 9 car hauler trailer, the driver is willing to stay. There’s also the business processes. What do you think? Can it be run with a semi absentee owner? Is what he said about having more jobs than he can handle true or is he making it up?

In your opinion should I consider it or let it go? I have a sales background and I know that getting new customers is the hardest part of business then comes profitability. Generating business has been easy for the business from what I know so far. What do you recommend?

A once in a lifetime chance to get my very own toll bridge, tell me more.Nostalgic, spyder7723 and Snailexpress Thank this.

We have car haulers here who are talking about how load rates are low. Think about that.
Also in my time in the business world I have come across too good to be true deals being struck to later the new owner going under because the customer base pulled out.
What I mean is this. The clients he’s servicing are they under contract? If yes then what are the termination clause details of said contracts? If no then how sure are you the client will stay with you as the new owner? In this industry the guy giving him the loads could be his buddy meaning he sells you the business buys a new rig and takes his client away from you on a few months.
Either way no one that I know would sell a golden goose if the yearly income is 90k per truck, they would expand big time.
It just sounds very too good to be true.DrDieselUSA, brian991219, roshea and 4 others Thank this. -
So your thinking you buy this truck and after all expenses associated with the business including paying your driver, you still pocket $80-90k a year off this one truck?
Am I understanding this correctly?spyder7723 Thanks this. -
I would let it go, you're only buying a used truck and trailer, do your due diligence, used truck will always be around.51.50 Thanks this.

If my son came to me with an "opportunity" like this I'd smack him upside his head. There is no part of this deal that sounds legitimate.
But, it's your $.haycarter and spyder7723 Thank this. -
