    You want a piece of advice, you should start selling yourself before you apply for an authority. I know it doesn't all sound smart to do but you can call brokers and ask them what they require and tell them of your plans. A lot of good brokers will listen to you, offer you ideas and call you when they think you can do something for them.

    If you also want another piece of advice, you should have leased to LS and ran with them learning how to sell yourself and your truck.

    See this entire broker system is broken, it is a mess and it is something that you, the newbie can take advantage of if you listen to some who know what's really going on.
