    A littler tidbit id like you guys to consider. Every tinge there is an upswing oin the economy there is a huge rush of new entrants, guys that just recently bought a truck and soon after get their own authority. And very few of them survive the next downturn. Put a plan into action now that will let you survive when rates And volume go back to hell cause i promise you its not an if its a when. The market WILL go south again.

    The dealer caused some issues with the title but the salesman himself took everything to the bank and then to the permit office. I should have them by 10am Monday. My stickers should be ready on Monday as well. I was running errands today and some old woman hit my car so I have to find a place and drop it off Monday to get it repaired. Messed up my back door and fender pretty good. She hit me doing about 20mph. Time off is so much more stressful than being on the road.

    I'll be hauling my first load tomorrow morning sometime under my own numbers. I started the new thread to document how that goes but I'll still get alerts on this one if anyone has questions about being an O/O under a carrier's authority.

    Stepping Out With My Own Numbers
