    I have been an owner operator for about twelve years now, on my third truck, and have never bought a brand new one. Let some one else buy it new, pay the fet tax and take it in the shorts on the first year of its drop in depreciation.

    My truck Wasn't brand new and actually looks better then when i bought it. If u take care of it it should run, in order to keep it in good shape u need to run and make money, and in orderr to do that u need to take it slow and find a good company that will give u descent work and won't screw u on money then just go with the flow as u will get familiar with the basic stuff u need to know. Good luck

    I don't run under my own authority, I am leased to a carrier and pull my own stepdeck.
