you are correct in your observation ,

as it is a major task for me to overcome !!!
only time will tell if i can afford the truck .
truck payments are 'extremely' high ,and so is the truck insurance.
yet all other operation and personal costs ,are very low.

think there is good money to be made at Expedite for a single st. truck O/O ?
lets ask the same question next January or February...

EOonline works for me , no dought about that ,
yet by researching the site before buying into the truck , even on this informative website , one cannot get a strait answer as to how to build an Expedite business plan !
even a simple question as :
how many loaded mil a year to expect ?
all one can get is all bunch of BS , rather then a number that is close to reality !
this is by far the mosts important base number ,
its have nothing to do with experience or home-time.dead-head,or breakdowns .
simple question :
if a truck to be out 340 days a year , ready for work ,doing a reasonable job on staying with-in where the freight is ,and time management,
how many loaded mil.s this driver can expect to drive ???
lets see some numbers.
