    I can't say who would be best to lease on to but I will say this, if you are OK with paperwork and keeping all your i's dotted and t's crossed, staying on top of filings, maintenance records, all your paperwork, go get your own authority. If you have experience already in pulling reefers and already have your own truck and trailer, this is a no brainer to me. It would be fair, however, if you could find something where you would be paid say 90%, and the company takes care of all paperwork (you pay for everything they just do the paperwork part). It would also work best if you were able to book your own loads through them.

    I believe he has been pulling SD and RGN so he must have some experience!

    Ohh, my bad, you're right. Perhaps I should pay more attention to the usernames sometimes. Sorry.
