I had insurance with progressive for 12 years at the time both car and bobtail. Had diamond or platinum status with those policies, but with starting with my own numbers it was like beginning over from square one.
Problem is all the other quotes I received from other agents were from progressive also.

Do you know what a slack adjuster is? -

I would hope to heck I knew what I was getting into knowing I have a family to support. I feel that the industry is frowned upon and good solid drivers don’t get in the industry because of comments like this.
Everyone has to start somewhere just as the veterans have before us. We are On this forum to seek advice not a smart ### remark that I can’t get from my teenager in the other room.
All the info provided is greatly appreciated from those passing on the knowledge. I have ran the numbers and the numbers I came up with are more than doable. At this time I want to play it smart and knock down some personal debt before making this huge investment. -
I went into it with minimal debt... The only debt that I have is the truck and the company bills. I don't own a home, no kids, no wife... I am completely debt free except for the truck and all the bills that come with the trucking company...
Best advice I can give is IF you do go into this don't go into it trying to solve your current debt. Get out of debt first then go into it. Creating more debt with a trucking company is not the answer... You cannot "Rob peter to pay Paul"...PE_T Thanks this. -
You don’t need 10 years to start a trucking company. You want at least 2 years of experience while accumulating lots of knowledge in the subject and capital to fund this new company. Good mentors are also very important for anyone with just a couple years of experience. -
Your input is greatly appreciated and Im sure you have advice that would be grateful to me and others. I just get frustrated with comments that are not needed when someone is seeking advice.
I hope that one day when, "I AM SUCCESSFUL" that I will run into you so you can see what I have and even have a drink of choice together. Just looking to be successful, profitable and healthy!tommymonza, PE_T and Gdog66223 Thank this.
