You guys are all crazy I recently (2022) paid $9500 usd for an E250 and feel ripped off. 66 months of $1550 is not my idea of a good time

If you can afford the vehicle outright and afford to lose 100% of your investment, go for it Just be ready to make less than minimum wage after expenses, until you find a niche that pays (of course you already have the insurance sorted out right? If the "apps" don't cover you, totally possible...

Yes you should. Unfortunately it's never worked that way in trucking history...

There's going to be a real shortage of people answering that they suck balls I'm a contractor but I pay for my own insurance. Last run was 3.97 a mile usd - I don't really understand why people do the 1099 thing but it's probably because it's easy

Are they still doing "Driver Inc" type scams in USA? I'm free to say yes or no or get as many customers as I please.

Yeah they are in stock near me but 200 mile range... I'm not buying either. The solid state tech I was looking at was still over 91% at 500,000 "simulated" miles. Still waiting

I wasn't thinking big rig, although Edison Motors has a design that is along the lines of a Ramcharger Edison Motors I don't know about 2027, buy one now if you want. BYD Dolphin is in Europe and Mexico, they haven't entered USA yet.

To answer the last - you didn't, the only way you could have known is to do it. Best way is as a driver with someone else's equipment The dream that they play to on social media doesn't exist. It's been said time and again here but people would rather believe in something positive I guess

Appreciate the reply I've been at this a long time, and have been wondering what all these people getting new MC#s are planning on doing with them I started same way, and just by accident got a 5 day a week route that paid off the van. Never again Still in the business, but always paid off...

Not too sure what you mean, solid state batteries are barely out of the lab and definitely not in any mainstream vehicles. Doesn't take but a quick google search to see all the test results (solid state batteries) Today no. But I drive a 2012 In the meantime if I needed one, the BYD Seagull...

I can see you are unhappy and I get it. I'm interested to hear, what made you think it wouldn't be that way? Social media, or a recruiter? I'm just curious

I enjoy reading your posts so don't take this the wrong way; but have you ever heard it's easier to steer when you are moving and not sitting still? I broke into the business paying a $2000 "job finding fee" at a parasitic loan compnay in 2006, then paid off a lease to own deal which ended up...

Wait for solid state batteries people. Besides range and early death in commercial use, you can't predict in any way whether it will simply burn A Ramcharger has 700 mile range, but not available until 2025 and its a pickup... Simply no financial or workflow reasons atm for over the road...

That's a HORRIBLE story and I'm sorry it happened to you. Was hoping it was at least a little funny. Last year, a reputable carrier stopped paying me. It was a complicated route and was for a leg I was involved in. $15,000 and I HAD A CONTRACT. Maybe people will read these and smarten up?

Aw you can't go.saying that without telling the story :p

Yes my response was sarcastic asking for drivers. I'm an owner op If you have resources and don't mind, try it. Not being paid as agreed is most likely the worst thing that could happen to you, although drivers can get mixed up in double brokered theft scams thru no fault of their own PS if it...

Go Bills btw sent you a DM it's in "Coversations"

LoadLink Not for the best but it's what we got. You have lots of time to hit up some shippers or brokers

Search for expediting companies, and apply as a driver Unless you happen to have enough saved to buy a truck and feed it for a year + living expenses, then whatever happened, you're 20 with time to recover Call insurance FIRST if you try and buy your own
