Ok - settle down tiger. You’re double posting.

Patience . . . The wolf will be there, directly.

 

That’s ok. This is a great forum.

Thick skin required, but you learn a lot.

 

Now, there’s some obvious questions.

- Business plan
- Business plan,

And wait - let me think of it, aaah yes . . .

- Business plan.

What’s the plan, Stan?

 

I started out with a class B and eventually got my Class A this year. The good thing about that is that you have some experience behind a commercial size vehicle and will likely not have to take as many written test, so kudos! Buying a truck is a major purchase with many responsibilities while also being an exciting step so best of luck on that too! Me personally, my goal is to acquire 1-3 trucks in the future but my preference is to to learn all that I can as an employee to work out the kinks on someone else's dime if you know what I mean. I will tell you if I read you correctly, purchasing a tractor and trailer for 10K is a huge hill to climb if you're looking for equipment for longevity, that is: If you're a diesel mechanic or know someone in that field that will be a huge help! Being in PA in the winter, me personally, I would try to work for a company first so that I could learn the roads and how to navigate them in bad weather without the self employment expense, insurance, repairs etc. Regardless of your decision good luck and Be blessed!
