Got my new trailer today

Made the last payment and now I have two trucks and trailers
No payments hurah hurah.

 

How you been? nothern Ny doing ok? You staying out of dot's way?

 

My first year I nearly starved. landstar was the only comapny I knew then.
Their light weight freight comes and goes.
This year has been my best year yet sill not making no money but I spend it all on eqipment and stuff thats tax deductable. eastern area is best for hotshot type setups houston and eastward. I like NYC when it pays right.
The trick is lasting the first few years and learn what your doing and don't extend a bunch of credit, deal with companies like LS, CHR and those with quick pay. Spend more time running than chasing a invoice.
I would love to have a pete 379 but achrophobia and bridges wouldn't mix well.

 

I wouldn't buy a new truck. I go with a lower milage older one that way if you don't like it you're not stuck. Thats what happens these guys buy a 50,000 dollar truck then get the sawzall out and cuts cab open to put a sleeper on. Then six monthes later they decide they don't like it and guess what no one will buy the truck. If you're 6 foot or less you should be able to sleep in truck without sleeper comfortably, I do.

freight isn't the problem the right freight going somewhere you have hope of loading back from.
