Car Hauling under my own authority(???)

good advice

 

It appears that I missed the rant from MoneyMikeIII. I probably would have enjoyed it. I love when a guy that does not even have a CDL yet, asks for advise and then gets mad when he hears the truth. Oh well, rant away, I'm still going to play golf this afternoon.

 

Is it car hauling a good business to have?

 

owt ,could you please elaborate on your comment that you cant build a biz on central. ive had a friends password now for two yrs and been treating the site like a monopoly game. ive had mixed results depending on what equipment i pretend to own verses where i chose to run.ive found that with my current int 9400 trk and an 8 car hauler im doing very well! yes insurance quote was around 11k. other start up cost aside ive put together loads avg of 3-4 bks amile with a number of weeks abouve 5. wife and i have ran step and consider any number above 2.5 good.we are ready to buy an 8 car but cant get your comment out of my head.

 

Soooooo your doing well with an 8 car trailer that you dont even have? ROFLMAO

 

I guess he's never gotten to the auction to find out the vehicle he's supposed to get, isn't paid for yet and he can either sit till it might get released or leave without it. OR the COP that he was supposed to get and the guy tells him that he'll deposit the money and doesn't, or the car damaged on his trailer because a piece of debris flew up and damaged the $70,000 SUV he had on the trailer that he has to pay for now because it's under the $2500 deducible on his insurance.

In a perfect world, I'd have 6 cars on my trailer paying $1,50 a mile each and they'd all go from the same pickup point to the same drop point every day and at delivery, the guy would hand me $1000 extra just because I did a good job.

 

Yup, it's all just a big game. And since it's all for fun, you can select a load of 8 Mustang Convertibles and BACK them all on...

 

A big monopoly game? LMFAO!!! Even a guy "new" to this like me can laugh at that. Wow, someone has a LOT to learn about the tough realities of this business. Still, I love what I do, and would never trade it to bump a dock for someone else.
