Howdy ya'll making my own Company.

Obvious that you have no money to pay anyone if factoring is at the top of the list.
Have to look for O/O's that will work not knowing if they will be paid.
You have no idea on how to find loads.
100%
No idea what you're talking about
All holes, nothing solid

 

Your dads 30 years is great but means nothing if he didn’t pass down all knowledge. The fact that he supports what you are doing with the questions you asked here are troubling to say the least. It really isn’t as easy as you like to make it sound. I’d say good luck, but then it may appear I’m supporting this awful idea.

Here. Go run your own truck for 5 years. Then come back around and revisit your current plan. You know who the absolute worst Managemet is in the trucking industry????? Guys who never drove a truck.

 

One good week for one truck can make 10-15K with a dry van. You do not have the capital to run more than one truck.

 

My last week of running and doing out of FL of all places I did 12,200 and that was easy to do.

 

If you have money to "throw" at a problem then why even mention factoring?
Little bit you have won't go very far.

 

Solutions and good management fix problems, not money. You don’t have enough.

 

@Newguy2004 ...The guys are trying to tell you something. You need more of just about everything, experience, contacts, money, and a general knowledge of the business before you start off on your own. Why not run with your Dad for awhile and get a better idea of what you really need?

One thing about this place...you'll get the advice you need even if it isn't the advice you want. That's a good thing
