    Sure, but then I'd have to be off from November to April 3/4 inch of ice on the van. Some of it won't even come off the windshield. How is it raining when its -10? (14F)

    Speaking of that, it's amazing how many jobs there are for DZ (your class B I think) near me. I've never looked before. "Freedom" has an opportunity cost

    Getting closer to the numbers I'm looking for. Not that I'd dream of having employees, just for me There's a company near me that pays $1.50 all miles, plates, tolls...fleet insurance...stands to reason they charge a customer more than $1.50 a mile

    Dude, what a way to send all the low ballers to ruin the trucking market even more. Regulate vans, and everybody will be buying under 26k straights

    I sincerely hope you post maintenance cost on those two. Since you DO post numbers, can I ask why straights? Yes they have more freight opportunity, but myself, I haven't figured out how they earn more than vans...

    I just had a lucid dream - started a trucking business, had the office, a couple of drivers were showing up with Freightliners and doing their pre-trips. I was trying to figure out how to break it to them that they were going to have to teach me how to get loads and run regulated. Time to put...

    Probably my diesel advantage is imaginary, but I still have nightmares about my CNG van (basically a gasser with different fuel) walking to Murray's auto parts to get enough to start it in the shipper's parking lot Course it was a dodge, that's part of the problem
