New Small Fleet Operator

Do you have "Start-Up" cash? Or do you think you can start a business on "Credit"? Do you even have "Credit"?

How old are you?
What does your work history look like before this:

If you are young...and have no assets...and you walk into a bank asking for a quarter of a million dollars on a small business loan...they are going to laugh you, not only out of the bank, but probably out of town, and maybe even ask you to leave the entire state.

I guess what all these other posters are indicating is: Have you REALLY thought this through?

Hey; if Grandma died and left you a nice chunk of coin...do what you want with it!

 

Where white Volvo "companies" share their business strategy???

Please enlighten us...

 

Oh yah...forgot to mention. I am not a fan of this type of operation. In Waterloo, Iowa...there are LOTS of Bosnian owned trucks and trailers sucking up valuable parking spots in the three truck stops the area has to offer...because they seldom get driven, and these guys don't bother to buy, rent, or lease property that they can use as a terminal.

So when tired drivers are looking for a place in the area to park and take a 10 hour break, or company drivers home on the weekend without parking at the house...they have to compete for parking with these Government subsidized "non-working" space wasters.

 

Getting the trucks is the easy part...coming up with decent drivers is the hard part.

 

Hey OP....if you are looking to hop on the gravy train, maybe you should be at a train station, not a truck stop. This industry is not a get rich quick scheme, nor a work from home opportunity.

 

b

Can you or anyone else show a link to a government subsidy, heard about them for years, never seen proof.

 

You got a computer... go find it on your own. I'm tired of holding everyone's hand and doing all their foot work for them. The laziness ends here.

 

In other words, you can't produce a link.

 

No...in other words...GO FIND IT YOURSELF. The information is out there...look for it if you demand answers. Oscar that "reverse psychology" stuff ain't gonna work on me, sorry.
The answer to any question is out there, and I'm just getting tired of lazy people with the same resources as I have always asking others to find answers for them.
