    There seems to be alot of drivers that are just full of #### out here on the road. The guys that know it all done it all and seen it all . And if u aint like them then ur wrong. I dislike those kinds of people because there really is more than 1 way to make money out here and i think this forum here is a good example of that.

    My first two trucks were both FL Classic’s. If I was smart I would still be driving one of them.

    Most times the reason people fail has nothing to do with the truck they buy....

    It's their inability to manage their finances....they have a spending problem and don't know how to live within there means. The business always comes first.

    Right on! That actually seems quite fair of them..

    It does seem you did your homework seeking out a company you could succeed with.. :thumbup: At your age you should be well ahead of the game I think if you stick with it..

    Probably something ta do with it..

    The adjuster is supposed to finally make his way out to ol Buck sometime on Monday.. Dang hurricane Eta claims slowed him down supposedly.. :rolleyes:

    The estimate I got already is $6014.70!!! :eek: This is good.. See what happens Monday, but I'm going to shell out the $2300 for a new Jones premium hood to get the process started.. All the local used hoods I've looked at so far are junk to me. Then whatever insurance pays out, we'll make it work..

    Side note I ran across a black '01 379 standup, 7cz Cat, 18speed, factory 4axle & 51 ton tridem Fontaine that seems like a decent deal.. My entire operation would change, & eld seems atrocious but something to waste time pondering.. :rolleyes:

    Sitting at the pilot in mitchellville, tn. On our way to Ohio. Then a new load to PA. After that we'll have a load up to NY. Here from St Louis.
