    I would have thought you already had something lined up. You were pretty specific on the specs for that fleet of five trucks you are wanting to buy.

    Load boards are a last ditch effort before running home empty, get your own customers, or find a small local company to you that does and see if they will load you for a small % and cut out all the middle hands.

    A guy with a cat is normally trying to fool you.
