I did not even read the 10 years to save up a down payment part. Ha Ha I thought you wrote ten years to be able to buy a brand new truck outright. A down payment on a new truck is not a big issue.
How much experience do you think is needed before becoming an O/O?

Yup, everyone in the world is in the same situation as you. No one has wife/kids that have special needs or medical issues. Everyone in the world has people paying their way so every penny they make in a few years goes right into the bank. I concede, you are 100% correct. EVERYONE can do it just like YOU did. You are Captain America.
Good job hero! Keep on trucking.Last edited: Apr 27, 2023

Wow really? How long did it take you to learn how to drive a car? I mean really it is a truck with a trailer hooked to it.

When I was a company driver I did not deal with repairs, the truck owner did. I did not learn where and how to find work, what freight is more profitable, what areas are more profitable, nothing. I just learned how to deliver freight from point A to point B. Explain to me how doing that for years would have been beneficial to become a better o/o.

All I can say is if you, right now, drive a truck like you did after only 3 months driving, I #### sure dont want to be on the same road as you. lol (SMH)

Ok, you want me to explain. Here goes...
NOT EVERY DRIVER DOES WHAT YOU DID.
Clear enough? Not every driver is a steering wheel holder like you were (are?) -
Being an O/O is not that hard. If you are a decent driver, can handle a checkbook, and signed on with a good outfit…. Being an independent, is a whole different story.
dave01282000, Long FLD and Siinman Thank this. -
So I take this to mean you drive a car NOW like you did when you were 16?
WOW.
Just
WOW -
So with that statement I will assume you took way too long to learn and most likely should not had gotten a CDL. You are one of the reasons people get to many chances to drive a truck and should not be in a truck.

Funny what you are explaining to work for 10 years driving is what I would call a Steering Wheel Holder. You amuse me for sure. Lol4015 Thanks this.
