    There is a guy who goes by PharmPhail who will give you all the information you need to start up on a shoestring and be a successful O/O. Don't listen to these guys, just find Pharm and ask him the questions.

    well why didnt you say you had driven for a week--well actually that would just be a 2dayer but still you have expirience --now go for it, buy a truck and start making money--i think everybody is just trying to keep you out so they can have more money for themselves---cause they are evil--and nasty
    is your name lupe by any chance?

    Yeah.... that was the point. Kind of a tongue-in-cheek jab there. :biggrin_25525:

    why not stay pulling wrenches?
    if you are good at rebuilding engines you will make far more than driving,when everything is finished being counted--no money to spend on road---sleep in your own bed at night--know when you are working and when you will be at home

    I thought so and....I thought so. But I wasn't 100% sure.
    I don't wish anyone "ill will" in trucking but you cannot be unrealistic with things either.

    Anyone that knows me personally has some clue of the massive amounts of money I have shelled out.
    So far, purchasing the rig itself seems to have been the CHEAPEST part....But I have no regrets either...
