Best Owner Operator company to start with.

Where is your location?

 

You could wait, save some money and really research and find the truck you want. Some other decent companies are, admiral merchants, Mercer, and maybe some smaller fleets that will let you book your own freight.

Get to know the industry, freshen up on some mechanical skills, talk with more people etc. I wouldn’t recommend getting started to a lease on company without at least 10k cash after you make your truck down payment or pay your truck in cash. And 10k is on the low side. Plenty of threads on here to read.

Good luck

Dont lease a truck from the same company you book your freight with.
Nuff said.

 

Admiral Merchants may still have a terminal not too far from Ft. Lewis.
