    Originally had 400k in mind but after a couple of days of more research & advice from here...changed to up to 200k.

    The idea was that I'd be pulling someone else's or a company's trailer as an OO using my future rig.

    Just FYI there's a difference in having balls and being stupid.

    Nothing easy about hauling 200k either. No company will take you right out of the gate and put you on big moves. There is no one truck that is set up to do everything. My 4 axle tractor won't do what @Rontonio 's 3 axle tractor will. Neither one of our trucks are good for pulling a flat or a step. Too heavy. You need to crawl before you walk. It's nice to have big dreams, but it takes time. Start with flats and work your way up the open deck ladder. How fast it takes is up to you and how fast you learn.

    Not no more!

    OP, we don't want the same thread scattered all over the entire forum. It's pointless to do that.

    A 12k pusher doesn't get you to HH City.

    Ok.

    Thanks for the info.

    I wouldn't mind that if that would be part of the stepping stone to officially being a HH driver
