    I have no doubt you learn from every job. Just seems that one could not master everything you claim to have done in the posts I have read over the years to master all of the claimed jobs and careers? Most industries or jobs take several years to master let alone to climb to the top of being...

    Considering buying 4 trucks from owner

    Wayne, Newer, Older, Great Shape or Junk. You know nothing about this business as you said. Until then Could I borrow a Million Dollars I promise to pay you back. It would be just as dangerious to loan anyone that kinda $, and just as risky to do what you posted with no knowledge. Good luck.
