    Thank you for your understanding.

    There are a lot of smart folks on this forum. Some are former drivers turned company owners, some own several trucks and still drive, and some are company drivers. Since you are looking for advice on how to improve your services, listen to what they tell you they are looking for and I think you will do well with your business.

    I'm curious to know what the Pilot says when you roll in and do an oil change in their parking lot?

    What they say?

    NOT a thing.

    They can't prevent someone from being serviced in their lot, as long as they do it and keep it clean, no one will say a word.

    I do not understand why everyone is tripping up over this. I literally wanted to know what owner operators would like to see and what they could benefit from so I could try and accommodate them. Then people started getting on here, making conclusions in their head without any facts, causing issues. I clearly stated earlier in this very thread, I'm aware I couldn't do work in a truck stop lot... yet someone brought it up at 6:14 am this morning. Telling me they clearly did not read and pay attention to previous statements. I do not doubt, that their are intelligent, intellectual individuals on here. But a few of the ones who have commented, have just done so to be dicks. Which is whatever. But unnecessary.

    At the end of the day, I set out on this platform to reach owner operators on a more broad scale so I could learn additional ways to accommodate them and help keep them profitable, while keeping everyone legally, and intellectually protected. I'm focused on owner operators because my business couldn't legally do work on company drivers vehicles due to the warranty and legal arrangements most carriers have with the manufacturer.

    I have asked to have my profile deleted, because of the sheer lack of good character on here, people creating conclusions without any factual data and overall lowering everyone's IQ's. Which is a shame- as I believe this platform had the potential to help me make a difference for some owner operators.
