I am want to get started in the freight business, I am located in Kansas City and looking for ideas for good companys, that are not to far away(under few hundred miles?), to start out as a company driver in a cargo/sprinter van. Any info will be very helpful to me as I do not know any one "In the business".

I would advise that you drive for someone else first and get a feel for this first before you buy any equipment to see if this is right for you. But having said that do you have a CDL most but not all require it.
But I would look it to driving a sprinter your revenue would be better for you and the owner. -
That is what I am looking for to start out doing, driving for an owner, I just want to make sure I dont get on with a bad fleet owner and the experience of that be how I start out. That would make me rethink my idea of wanting to get into the business. If anyone has any leads or tips for good owners I am all ears, I have wanted to be in the freight business sense I was a boy, I love the open road and I love to drive. I have helped friends move across the midwest and farther, most of my vacation are driving to the place we go, Canada, Texas, New Mexico, Louisiana and Colorado are some of the places I have drove just in my personal life.

Does anyone have any info at all that can help?

The hard part is that most "good" fleet owners want someone that has experience. You could get lucky
