    It’s an investment for him. He works a full time job and was doing this for extra cash. Trucking is not up his alley and he wants to sell.

    $3k a week?
    Who pays insurance and plates?
    My deal is ALL plates, insurance, tolls, IFTA, trailers, dispatch, $75 an hour shop rate, and deeply discounted fuel.
    On 2500 miles I'm over $4k and it's light work. Headache free, just what and old man like me needs.
    Edit;
    I'm off right now I just had a hip replacement. I keep thinking now that my hip is done I should buy a trailer get my own numbers going and go make some REAL money... then I shake my head. Not worth it AT THIS STAGE. if your paying for everything, I would think you would want to be well over $5k a week?

    You can buy both of these together off truck paper for $30-35k... The guy selling it to you for $55k is looking for a sucker.
