After purchasing a truck

Help him out by answering his question. Not talking to him like he’s a moron.

 

Glad you went to mind reading school but many of us didn’t.

 

Reading comprehension, and lack thereof, was responsible for the assumption the OP had already bought a truck. He merely stated "what do I need to do after purchasing the truck".

The masses didn't need anything more than that to rush to conclusions so they could join the dog pile.....

 

Didn’t go trough all the responses, but looks like lots of know it all smart ####s.
First decide if you are going to lease to a company or go on your own. If lease to someone call them, see what the requirements are (truck and driver) and then go buy a truck.
If own authority:
Get an insurance quote first, just give them a vin from similar truck that you want to buy. You can get it off truck paper.
When you find an insurance you can live with go ahead and apply for authority. Once you have your authority buy the truck and get the insurance.
Many people file on their own. When I had my authority I used a company to file for me and they made sure that I have everything I need to run legal. Yes you pay for the service, but it is a lot cheaper than if you miss something and get a huge fine from DOT or get shut down at a scale.
Anyway if you ask what you need just hire a reputable company to do it for you.
Getting into the business is easy. Staying in business that’s a diferant story. Some make it many don’t.
Good luck

 

My reading comprehension is fine. It doesn’t matter if he has bought the truck yet or not.
The question should be “What do I need to know BEFORE I consider purchasing a truck?”
Then, and only then, can intelligent and helpful answers be given.
His chances of succeeding will be much better.

 

I am not talking to him like a moron, i could talk to him like some of the others could like a d**k. I tried to help in an earlier post.

 

And he is asking BEFORE HE BUYS A TRUCK what the steps are going to be. You are arguing against yourself, dude.

Reading comprehension, reading comprehension.

 

I guess this isn’t clear enough for some to comprehend here.....

 

I didn't know it was a requirement to line up everything BEFORE buying a truck.

Typically yes. But what if joe just happened to see a deal too good to pass up. And paid cash for it. He'd been kicking the idea around of owning a truck.

I seem to recall a couple of people that came along on here and were GIVEN a truck. Ya'll didn't harp on them.

 

So ask the question instead of jumping to the conclusion. He never said he bought the truck. He asked what steps were needed after buying it. There is a difference.

The Op did exactly what he got beat up on for not doing. Research.

Says a lot. TTR isn’t the counter at the Country Pride, or the cb. It’s for people to come ask questions and learn from more experienced people. Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves the way you speak to people sometimes.

Answer a guys question. No need to read three chapters deep into a book you don’t own. Hiding under the i’m trying to help him cloth is fantasy land, it’s more about making yourself feel good.
