You may find a Ryder or Penske type operation that will carry the note if they’re stuck with a quantity of vans coming in off a lease. Probably the smaller the company the more interest they’ll show in you. Or find dealers that buy large quantities of used vans. Can you hire your own...

It’s still quite profitable..... Do you know that, or hope that ? Do you have an accountant, not H&R Block, but an accountant that tells you you’ll be profitable figuring future tax liabilities, etc? Are your drivers employees ? I hope so. That’s more expensive than most people can imagine. If...

Have you talked to a reputable rental company about long term leases? Should be much cheaper than renting. The longer you commit, the cheaper per month . Do you have any kind of financial guarantee from the shipper ? And how do you find 20 drivers in 2 weeks?

Ever hear of Roadway Express ? Amazon probably won’t do this but..,, Roadway went around the country feeding/pushing small trucking companies. To keep the every expanding business they had to build a Roadway designed terminal. Then once heavily leveraged, Roadway would pull the rug out from...

If you don’t have an oil cooler, wouldn’t adding one bring about another quart into play ?

Eli’s last full year ? If they don’t protect him better, he may not survive this year. No comments on the Lions, who I read earlier this week were “ In the playoff hunt“ ?

I sold cars for 6 months. Mainly to learn how to buy cars. They’ll tell you ANYTHING to get you to come in. They can’t make any money from you until they entice you to show up.

I never talk numbers but the last two people that talked to me about my truck have no reefer experience. This they don’t understand the value or potential of a reefer. And I’m retired so I have nothing to lose. My numbers for the year were computed today. $130,232 for 31,360 miles. That’s...

5.3 or 5.5 quarts. Are these guys checking level before starting and filling the filter ?

I was wondering what made someone think you were off topic,
