Id be lucky to hit $1300 net in two weeks and this isnt the worst gig around by far.FlaSwampRat and Midwest Trucker Thank this. -
Yeah I did drive but I also had a driver if that makes sense. No way insurance was going to cover a 24 yr old with fresh cdl and 15 yrs of farm experience. So, my buddy, I hired him to drive part time and be the primary on insurance. Went from there...FlaSwampRat and FoolsErrand Thank this. -
LMAO Yea, when I started I drove and bought a couple more when I had a driver lined up, and had a few (very few) select oo's running too. I made it a point to not buy anymore than I could pay for driving my truck though.
I had very good drivers, that virtually never had to put a truck in the shop on the road, I would have not even done it if I had to scrounge for drivers or had any turnover at all to speak of. When I hired a driver and bought a truck for them to drive, the deal was they sat in that truck for three years, and they all went over that.FlaSwampRat, FoolsErrand and Midwest Trucker Thank this. -
He made the investment and is now coming here looking for advice.
Maybe so but I'd would rather hear solutions on how to repair what's broken rather than to just throw it in the trash.Shanebklyn and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -
I suggest Ed he find a carrier not a broker that will dispatch driver as part of the deal .,...I don't think there is saving this deal as it stands

The only logilac way for him is to sell and get out of this as soon as possibleFlaSwampRat and Socal Xpress Thank this. -
Shanebklyn and FoolsErrand Thank this.

Selling a good running truck with an affordable, reliable driver to fix a management problem is like changing mufflers when your fuel pump dies.
Its a bad diagnosis and a worse attempt at a cure. Seriously. There is NOTHING logical there.FlaSwampRat Thanks this. -
Socal Xpress Thanks this.
