RE: fleet drivers

Don't be too quick to dismiss fleet driving as an option. For teams especially, it can be a good choice. I met a team just the other day that sold their truck. They were successful owner/operators but a guy came along that wanted to buy their truck and offered them a price too good to turn down. They took the money and ran, planing to buy a new truck for themselves and drive for a fleet owner in the mean time. That was a year ago. Their fleet work has worked out well for them and they see no reason to go back to O/O again. That's not everyone's choice but it works for them.
