    Like someone else has said on other threads very similar to this: he’s not looking for real advice because he’s already made up his mind. He’s just looking for a confidence boost, and a push off that cliff into ownership.

    You’re ####ing nuts thinking you’ll run 250K a year. You obviously need to drive for someone else for few years first.

    You better be getting an insurance quote before buying that International Volvoliner 37900L with zero experience.

    Nope. It's yellow. The yellow ones move faster. :)
