Trying to get all my ducks in a row before I dive into this. I have the equipment part narrowed done, now I need opinions on the legal business side. As an owner/operator should I form an LLC to keep the business separate from my personal finances or is that unnecessary? Also, should I talk to a...

Since a previous post of mine talked me out of a Sprinter. In your opinions, which would you guys go with......as far as reliability.....Ford Transit 250 or Nissan NV 2500, low mileage used 2014-2016 year range.

I am struggling here. I found this site over 10 years ago. I jump on here now and then to read up on whats going on and see how the business is doing. At the time I needed a stable income to get my kids into and through college. Well...mission accomplished. Without going into too much...

Looking to purchase a 2012 Mercedes Sprinter 3.0 Turbo Diesel 144 inch wheel base. It has just under 68000 miles. They are asking $21,999. Car fax is clean. Looking for some opinions on this. I know the wheel base is shorter than ideal. But besides that, what are the pros and cons to this year...

This company had an add on Craigslist for someone to deliver empty caskets from the local airport to funeral homes in the area. It was part time and seems perfect for my situation. I was trying to do some research to see if they were on the up and up. Craigslist adds make me kind of nervous. By...

I just ran across a 1999 International Mid Bus, short school bus, on Craigslist. It has a 7.3 liter diesel with only 16,000 miles for $4000. Not that I would do it, but could this be made into an expeditor. I know the rear doors would have to be widened. Just wondering if anyone has ever done this.

I'm trying to figure out the difference between the CDL B and C, as far as the tests go. I know what each test will allow you to be able to drive. I just can't figure out the differences in the testing? I'm in the process of deciding which way I want to go, B or just a C.

I did some searching around on the internet, but I can't seem to find out what NPR means, as in an Isuzu NPR straight truck. Can someone enlighten me? Just curious.

Just wondering where the best place would be for getting help with trucking authority. There are several web sites that offer help. I just don't know which one would be the best.

I have been doing some research on getting my own authority. Am I reading this right, if you only operate in your state of residence, you do not have to have Operating Authority.

An eco-friendly way to cool big trucks - CNN.com What do you guys and gals think?

Does anyone know anything about B-Line Delivery? They are fairly new. They have offices in Dayton and Cincinnati. Has anyone worked for them? Thanks!

I have been reading and asking questions on this site for about 4 months now. I was wanting to get into expediting, but from the answeres and advise I have received, I think you have talked me out of this, at least for now. I at least want to wait until my kids are out of school. But alot of you...

I've been thinking about getting into the business. I have a job now that I've been at for over 22 yrs., I hate to just leave it without knowing if this is right for me. Would it be a good idea to get my own authority for Ohio, where I live, Indiana, Michigan and Kentucky. Then go on the load...

I posted this on the Newbie forum but didn't get a responce, so I thought I would try it here. I've been thinking about getting into the business. I have a job now that I've been at for over 22 yrs., I hate to just leave it without knowing if this is right for me. Would it be a good idea to get...

Anyone know anything about A. Blair Enterpsises? They called yesterday and left a message. Are they a good company?

I'm new to this and still researching the business, hopeing to jump in if I can get someone to hire me. Anyway, this might be a stupid question but I want to make sure I have this correct. Any truck with a GVW under 26,000, you do not need a CDL to operate. Is this correct?

I'm still learning about this business. I hear a lot of people say they "have thier own authority". What exactly does that mean and how do you get it?

I just applied at Rush today. Just wondering if anyone has any more info about them. Letzrockexpress gave me some info in an earlier post. Would like to know more if possible. Thanks.
