    Hello,
    I have a friend working at the trucking company ( they do auto transportation). My other friend and I are trying to purchase a used truck and have my friend do the dispatch for us.

    However, we do not have any experience or knowledge on this field.

    So, I need help.

    I heard, in CA, there is a law state, you cannot use the truck that was made more 10 years ago. (sorry English is my 2nd language. ) Is that true?

    What types of truck is for auto transportation...? I see lots of trucks with hig top (?) but I do not think it's right truck for auto transport because when I see trucks with autos on them , they put an auto top of the truck.

    Also how much is the average of used truck ? Does anyone know any broker near Los angeles area ?


    I know those questions seem stupid to some ppl but I really do not have any idea about truck.

    Thank you for reading. Have a nice day.

    If you have no idea about trucking you certainly should not even be thinking of buying a truck and trying to move anything down a interstate highway. You need knowledge and experience.

    Are you so bad at your job that you fear competition from someone with less knowlege of the industry and less fluency in the language?

    I don't haul cars. But if you cant speak, write, type, and read english fluently then you should not drive a truck here.

    Seriously? Fluent English includes punctuation & capitalization. So hopefully according your "rules", you aren't driving a truck.
