Leasing on with pre-2000 truck

Okay so I'm guessing there's a big difference between electronic and mechanical engines visually. Like the difference between mechanical carbureted and electronic fuel injected engines in cars?

Landstar was one of the carriers I looked at. I saw that they didn't have a truck age limit but they did have an ELD requirement. ( unlike the carrier that I'm currently a company driver with jrayl... I got to take a look at their contract as well and I saw that they have a CARB requirement, ( even though they don't run to California to my knowledge.) So that pretty much sets an age limit of 2010 unless it's newer these days.

 

I actually came out of the trucking to success seminar by ooida last week.. I learned a great deal but they didn't really talk a whole lot about what trucks to buy mainly to how to buy a truck so I'm currently working on filling those gaps in my knowledge. So far it sounds like I should go back to the drawing board and come up with a different business strategy

 

Out of curiosity do you happen to know what's wrong with them? I had another driver tell me that some of their products may not be in my best interest but that doesn't tell me much, I'm genuinely curious on what I should be looking out for from them

 

I've noticed that ever since I've gotten into trucking, (in 2019.) I've been running into a lot more girls in my personal date life that were just after my money because I am a driver and not my heart... and from what I've heard so far it's even worse leased on or own authority.
