    OK, great thanks. I was also looking into their "Hotshot" leasing as O/O with them and I have had really great reviews from those who are with them. Thanks

    They have hot shots too. Van is the lion share of the business.

    Indeed, well said. And as the great orator and philosopher Tyson once said, "Everybody has a plan 'til they get punched in the mouth!"

    Just opened my business. Running as a team with my brother. Bought truck outright and reefer outright. We owe no money on either. Starting out this comming week we will see what happenens and will post numbers and helpful information. One thing I can say is....One thing I can say. DONT FINANCE TO START A BUSSINES. SAVE SAVE SAVE . Then open it.

    That's good advice as long as the truck and/or reefer doesn't breakdown and end up costing you more than payments would have on newer equipment. There are always unforeseen expenses. It's the nature of the business. I do wish you good luck in your new venture.

    I do taxes for truckers. Would you be willing to let me take a look at your returns to see if something got missed? Truckers have a lot of write offs.
