    Yeah right LOL. I think investors have bigger things to invest in than a one man show O/O. Might as well go on Shark Tank and ask them to buy you a brand new truck and trailer.

    Tell me where you can get 17% on your money today. For years railroads sold box or flatcars to investors using a Rolling Stock model.

    A 1 truck operation is a $1,000,000 business.

    Now I'm intrigued, please explain. Even if you ran 3,000 miles every single week for a year straight at $4 a mile that comes out to $576,000 GROSS before any expenses. And we all know you sure won't average anywhere near $4 a mile or run 3k every single week.

    A new truck and a new reefer plus operating capital needed to start up is $250,000. You have to carry a million dollars of insurance. If you drive 120,000 for 5 years you have drive 600,000 miles. At 1.70 per mile you are at 1.02 million USD. Now I can't give all the rest of the information because the SEC will not let me. But there you are for a start.
