Let me give you a quick run down on myself. I drove a tri-axle roll off for someone for 14 years, I've always wanted to start my own business for many years. I was on this site a long time ago asking for help then. I was getting a lot of negative feedback, maybe negative isn't the correct word to use but it was don't do it, you'll fail, times are hard.. blah blah. Well I started a dump truck business in February of 2017, it's going great and have no regrets doing it.
So my question is, because its going so good I'm looking to add another truck. Not a dump truck though, I'm looking to buy a day cab to run recyclables. It will need to have wet lines for a dump trailer. Anyway what kind of day cab do you suggest ? I see internationals are very cheap, along with volvo. I don't want to spend more than 35k to start, 40k tops. I was also looking at freightliners, DD13 and DD15. Just about everything I find do not have wet lines, so they will need to be installed. If someone could give me some advice on what motors to lean to and what to stay away from that would be great.
Thank you in advance.
Advice please

yeah truckers just a lovely bunch of people really
always ready to help a fellow trucker out when the need arises, sometimes i've found its not what you say but how you say it, or how you word it i guess when your typing, there is a whole section in there for owner operators as well or try typing in your question in the search engine at the top of the page its amazing what results come up. Bottom line is your responsible for your own business decisions unless you have an equal partner, best to go get a risk assessment done by a qualified accountant the money spent will be well worth the effort.
