Just go to Charlotte and look at all the SFI trucks sitting there getting caked in dirt.
Then ask yourself how long till yours joins the rest behind the great yellow line.

I see so many IC's though on the road. I talk to them and they say they can get freight. -
Even if you work your ### off all the time you will still be sitting there? How come all these guys with brand new 2017 Peterbilt 389's are making all this money?
-
Is it better to buy my own truck or lease? I'm trying to decide.
-
Lease it either way. Through the company or outside leasing company. Lease payments are 100 % tax deductible. If you buy the truck, you can depreciate it but can't deduct the interest.

Use the search feature.

That's not hard. -
Met a different IC this morning who was asking me about how the bunk heater works, he just signed for an old company truck. Did what I could to point him in the right direction. Last question he asked was "when I turn it off the screen says 'maintenance required', is that normal?". I told the poor guy that there's a dozen potential things and he'd need a knowledgeable mechanic to take a look.
Just because there are loads to haul doesn't mean they're profitable. Just because a truck looks affordable doesn't mean it is. Every last IC on here has had maintenance issues, some warranty some not, some stupidity some not.
If this is something you really want go thru the beginning of sadwar, desielfuelonly, chickanwing, and tennman threads, then come back and ask specific questions.drvrtech77, PoleCrusher, TennMan and 1 other person Thank this. -
