    Interested in buying my own truck just not sure which is a better way to go. Work with a broker or lease on with a company. Any advice highly appreciated. Thanks in advance

    Haven't thought about anybody yet. Taking it slow for now, I know it will be a huge investment and risk so not jumping into anything. That's why I started here asking questions. But I will look into them thank you

    Save a bunch of money . Nothing wrong with leaseing on to someone to get your feet wet . Figure out your fixed expenses before Truck purchase , Yes it can be scary at first . I'm a new O/O and leased on until my authority kicks in . Good luck
