Has any one done this ???

I lived in incheon ten years prior to coming back here.

I put in my 18 months company driving and just bought my first truck.

Trust me, you need the experience working under someone else's insurance with their equipment bf going out on your own.

Pm me

 

Best advice there, D'roc. Glad somebody showed up that has the wherewithal for good advice.
T'ya, driver.

 

Pick a truck you might like to buy and price the insurance .
With no experience, the quotes will blow your mind.
And 99% of companys wont lease you on because of no experience.

 

Is that seriously for real? I know Mercer requires a year. I'm not an O/O.... just a happy guy with a sweet Pete that still has bossman's name on the ppwk, and we both bank.

At least if I buy this gal, I've got accounts and years experience behind me; never knew that, tho.

 

The cards haven't even been dealt and you're going ALL IN. Sounds like a plan.

 

Six, you never cease to amaze me. Much respect, man. Wish I had your *insert word here* at your age, for sure.
Didn't know you with the new avatar.... was taken aback for a min, then...it all falls into place.

 

It seems to be a common thought that being an owner operator is easier than being a company driver.

You know how you hear people complain that their dispatcher forced them to drive tired? Or they complain about the air conditioning not working. Or about requesting hometime. Pick just about ANY complaint that company drivers can have and ask an owner operator if he deals with the same thing.

Every aspect of driving OP is trying to avoid by buying the truck, he will have to deal with. Isn't that right, @Broke Down 69 and @cnsper?

 

What is air conditioning? Actually as an owner op you will have more on your shoulders. For only a couple of years,eh I would skip this idea. Two years is barely time to get an idea what it really takes to make it.
