    Things change for the bad since dad and grandpa. At least here in California. My grandpapa has 50 fleet with local customers all inter-model.

    buy a truck and lease it to a company , hire a driver, work in different company and sneak in with him whenever the requirement of that company met ,(6 month to a year sounds good) , off course lease it to a company that you don't have to drive it when you buy . thats what I'm doing right now, just talked to Fedex custom critical and there is an app thats owner only but not operator , i have 10 years under my belt but even though i cant drive right now. that way you hold the stick from the middle. (Fedex is best for teams in the white glove ) but I'm taking my chances i have been O/O with them before. that why I'm doing it with them , there is far better companies out there but don't have the money for a trailer or to work in it , and those are not good options for my situation.

    Smarter than Smart. However, growing a company is harder than lime in a spine. Let's get down to the fact in this tucking town. Dun number and credit. Offices and underwriters. It's not what you know it's who you know. Who your bank and logistic buddy? Smart though good job. Sorry for this cryptic reply
