Why would you want to do this? I see in the background you have a camper parked, if anything why not build a carport in the back to park the truck?

The best thing for you to do is to contact some of the local courier companies where you live. At least with them, you can work out a deal to be on duty as you wish. Work daily and be home nightly.

Sometimes I can't spell for (you know what) or mabey yuo dont konw waht??? glad there (or is it their) is an edit button. You are quite welcome. Thank you for showing your gratitude. Knowing I was able to help just one makes all worth wild.

I had 3 accounts set up. One main account and 2 sub accounts. Out of the main account I paid all the bills like the fuel bill, truck note and other misc payments. All monies were deposited into this account. 2nd was to pay myself and the 3rd a maintenance account. I deposited 5% for the van...

RE: Entering into a 90/10 lease purchase. Anyone d Anything is possible, but I would say 'unless you are running a dedicated route or scheduled runs per week the $1500 each week is not practical.' $1000 is a more reasonable number but then you will be working for ZERO pay.

I also agree! Its hard to prove a hand shake. This BS, these owners are using as a come back (I'm from the old school. My word is my bond.) is nothing but their way of yet another old school con. First of all any responsible owner putting a 100K truck in the hands of a perfect stranger would...

I hope you had a chance to read all the archived posts. A few yrs back there was some extensive debate on this forum, regarding authority.

Terry Since you brought up the subject about a new van, have you thought about what type (make) the van will be? When it's time to replace your van, have you put any thought into size and comfort? I ask because, you as well as I aren't getting any younger! and I think about comfort all the...

Ya! What he said! [center]Thanks! Terry for all your help.

Greg, this thread has you spinning like the Nextel used to do me!!! LOL There is a solution to a paper trail, and it’s one we use at Pitt Express. First let me say a driver working for us can hire on using any fone service they are already contracted with. We adapt to that drivers fone...

IMO! Nextel fones (phones) are junk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wouldn't use them again even if they were the last fone company on this earth. To DannyD, if your company insists you have a Nextel, tell them you aren't paying for a fone and getting locked into a contract with a company who...

RE: Greetings All, from a Newbie Wannabe Carrier-O Welcome to EO, Herb I’m sure by now you have come to realize by some of the responses you received this site isn’t a typical carrier knowledgeable site. 99% of the members or at least the participating members don’t know a contract...

you souldn't have any problems making $600 a week. If you are able to live on $600 a month, you will be able to bank big bucks, and buy your own truck in no time.

This may shed some light! Courier: Except Air (Establishments primarily engaged in furnishing delivery of individually addressed letters, parcels and packages (generally under 100 pounds) by truck or other land vehicle. Included are establishments that perform intercity transportation as well...

My thoughts exactly! Weren’t you the same guy that was bragging about running his butt off, and being cocky too? Didn't everyone mention the honeymoon, and forewarn you this very thing was going to happen. Like T said, welcome to the jungle. On a more serious note, (even if it pisses...

There are some great fleet owners in the Toledo area. You should think about contacting them that is if you are serious about becoming an expediter. Unless you already own a truck not a van! Because most expedite companies are flooded with vans. Seems like back in the 60's, anyone back then who...

RE: 2 Questions: Streets and Trips and Wirless Int If you write or call MS Streets and inform them of your problem, they may replace the GPS part for you. It's worth the phone call!

Geo I do apologize for not seeing this post sooner. Had it not been for elton10's reply I may have never read it. Sounds like a great idea! I cannot believe no one else hasn't replied to this thread, and offered to help. Where is the gratitude? This thread should have 50 replies from...
