I've heard that before and that's such a wild concept to me. I'll definitely be shopping around on that one. Not planning to go with the...
I'm in northeast Nebraska. My intension is to remain within the 150 air radius and stay local doing side dump and flatbed work. I know a few...
Thanks for the responses, fellas! I'm definitely going to find a trustworthy CPA to handle the paperwork shuffle. I file my own personal taxes...
Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere but remember, I'm a dummy... Can someone explain (in small words) how the taxes for owner operator's...
I don't mean to dig up old forums but...... I think 2025 is the year I take the leap. Been biding my time the past few years and observing the...

If you don't mind my asking, what made you get out of it? The guy that is going to haul for my friend says that he was going to charge $8.53 a...
