    This board is full of great information and many times humorous. To all of you a BIG THANK YOU. Now, here I go again. Got my own authority and need to rent a reefer so I can haul refrig. and dry. Called Xtra and they don't rent to individuals. I always pulled dry vans and some occasional flats. I am looking on suggestions on what kind of trailer and any company in my area that would work with me. Again, thank yall.

    Not really, I bought the truck with intentions of leasing, but being on the upper 60's not many companies will answer my application. Hence, I decided to go "down in glory" as an independent.

    Ryder might possibly rent to you or Penske if they are close to you

    I tried leasing by calling around when I first was getting my authority. I'm sole-proprietorship. No one leases to a sole-prop company. Nor, do they lease/rent to someone in business less than a year (the second caveat when I mentioned getting an LLC). So, I bought a used one for $10k, ran it until it gave me too many problems, and then bought a new one eight months later.
