<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dino soar, post: 11396968, member: 208212&quot;]Doesn&#039;t seem like you&#039;re making any friends over here.</p><p><br /></p><p>And I&#039;m sure that you&#039;ll insult me after I get through but what they&#039;re trying to tell you is that right now trucks are so overpriced that whatever you would buy now if you did within most likely a short period of time it&#039;s probably going to be worth less than 50% of what you paid for it.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wanted to buy a second trailer. It ain&#039;t happening now. Not because I don&#039;t have the money for it but I&#039;m not spending $15,000 on a 2002 trailer. I&#039;m not spending $10,000 on a 2002 trailer. I&#039;m not spending $25,000 for a 2010 trailer. There is a dealer near me that if you just will happily plop down your deposit and make your payments every month for 4 years you too can have a 2013 trailer that you paid $48,000 for. <b>AIN&#039;T HAPPENING</b>.</p><p><br /></p><p>What&#039;s happening right now is not real. This is a bubble that is not going to last. The supply chain was backed up because of covid-19 now we&#039;re open and it&#039;s going to find its level. When it does every idiot that went out and bought a 2002 trailer for $15,000 is going to have a 2002 trailer that&#039;s going to be worth $3,000. Every idiot that went out and spent $90,000 on a truck is going to have a truck that&#039;s worth maybe $30,000.</p><p><br /></p><p>All of the idiots that looked at this and said wow now is the time I can get rich let me just jump in are jumping in at a time that the cost of equipment is at its highest ever in history and when this bubble breaks it&#039;s like having a a house that&#039;s worth $100,000 that you paid $500,000 for.</p><p><br /></p><p>The rates are going to come down. It&#039;s not going to stay like this. This is a house of cards a Ponzi scheme the airplane game whatever you want to call it that&#039;s what this is right now. The people on the bottom are trying to get to where the people on the top are but by the time you get there the bottom is going to fall out. And you&#039;re going to be holding equipment that you paid insane amounts of money for and you&#039;re not going to nearly be making the money.</p><p><br /></p><p>And as far as experience goes here&#039;s the bottom line. People think they know everything. But the truth of it is the little bit of time that you spend working for someone else that little bit of time gives you a certain experience that you need. And the fact is you don&#039;t know what you don&#039;t know and you don&#039;t know what you will learn that will help you. Because when the truck is yours when the authority is yours when the insurance is yours whatever repair is yours every mistake you make cost you money. So if you have millions and millions of dollars okay you can make millions and millions of mistakes. The rest of the mere mortals need to have a little bit of experience and minimize their mistakes and maximize their money.</p><p><br /></p><p>But hey the guy that never has been on one date in his life should marry the first woman that stands next to him. What could go wrong? Not like experience would have helped him or anything...</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t understand why you&#039;re here. You have everything figured out you don&#039;t need anyone&#039;s advice. [USER=15779]@rollin coal[/USER] is exactly correct... you need to just go to the dealer buy yourself the truck you want buy yourself the trailer you want and come back on here and tell us all how successful you are and how much money you&#039;re making.</p><p><br /></p><p>In fact you know what I think you should start a fleet. Why are you wasting your time buying one truck? No need to waste your time with one truck. You got it all figured out. Go buy 10 just get started man. It&#039;s easy. In fact I&#039;ll even give you the formula. Go buy yourself 10 trucks go buy yourself 15 trailers go hire yourself 10 drivers and you&#039;re rich. Come back here tell us all how much money you&#039;re making Inspire everybody tell us how you got rich because you have this all figured out.</p><p><br /></p><p>We&#039;ll all be waiting for you to report back.</p><p><br /></p><p>And by the way it&#039;s not a great idea to come on a forum anywhere and insult the members that have been there for years and years and years and give excellent intelligent advice that should be heeded and is given with the best intent and experience. Not cool.</p><p><br /></p><p>Questions are great. Attitude not so much.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
