investor want to start truck business

Maybe the guy needs a tax writeoff.

 

OP - did you post this thread as well - or is it extreme coincidence that it's the same exact subject & questions, with a different user name?

just curious...

 

It does look similar to my post I will admit but there is a difference. I already own the equipment and it is currently working. Just a conincidence on the timeline.

 

PM me if you are still looking

 

Aside from having to deal with permits and the investment itself, there are lots of cdl holders currently looking for jobs, most for lots of different reasons whether good or bad, but, after you purchase the equipment and hire a driver that you like, the only worry most owners have, is, the theft of diesel while at the pump or nearby location, by their own drivers. Simply because that is the only uninsurable cost to the company. My company has a device installed in the fuel tank to prevent this. Other than that, it's business as usual, with low pay grade freight and competition for the good stuff, but the transportation business will never be un-profitable. Now, how much profit you make, is really up to the owner himself, like the old saying goes, "It takes money to make money"
