That’s what I’m saying. At least drive for a company and learn a little. Not just buy a truck and not even know what type trailer you will be pulling.
How to get a truck, get own numbers and how to get direct freight?

When I started out I had to buy on additional insurance, that only loydof London would sell, go fufigu that cost

He hasn’t bought yet. He asked me how to get the DOT number and didn’t even know about ifta or anything. And yes I stay very busy. I have a full time job and run 5 of my own trucks.
Chinatown Thanks this. -
I did not know a lot my self 27 years ago, you should be honored that this person step to you, do the right thing and show him the right way, there enough to go around, I started with 1 and end up with 11, and lost just about everything to my ex-wife, then in 2010, the ship sink, I sense rebilled my life, but helping is the the right thing to do, we all learn from one, a friend your dad your mom sister are brother, I learned a lot from a friend, I don't know much about trucking, if it was not for him I would not be able to do what I do today, so I don't look down I help, you not going to give away every thing you have, but I think it's better to teach them how to get work, and how not to work cheap, if we don't show the next few that may make it out here, what you think will happen, the megga sure will teach,kemosabi49 Thanks this.

I’m saying I’ve never seen anyone on here or anywhere else say: go to ABC company and talk to John Doe and the rate I haul for is $xx. That’s what he was pretty much asking.

yes I remember what it is like being 18 ...and now they are going over the road .......of course they will have extra training time .... I just wish the guy training them was trained himself .... but I bet there will be companies standing in line to lease them trucks......
-
You are so right sad but true, they are pushing for it really hard
-
That’s understandable, i told him set a salary of 25% and that’s all he gets. I told him a lot of things but if he has no money or credit what do I do? Say hey guy go get that truck and here is how you do it. He quits his job he has now and starts and a week in the tranny goes out. (Happened to me).
-
Hey, at least he has some Moxy to place calls. I think he will figure it out. Maybe not the easy way....
