[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2009741, member: 58386"] IWBF is right. drove it myself and the truck as a general rule of thumb took it's half and I got the other half. The only difference is that the truck didn't have to pay taxes. So Mr. Questionman. I think it will come down to this reality. Every truck has to go out every day . Not 4out of 5 or 8 out of 10. Therefore your success will always depend on the assumption that there will always be somebody walking through that door every morning physically able and psychologicly willing to go out there and deliver you top of the scale performance for bottom of the scale money or at least close to it and be willing to do it on a continous daily basis for an extended period of time and meet X's minimum driving requirements. That is what you may find yourself betting a ton of borrowed money on. If you are in the kind of labor market that can offer a good supply at favorable pay rates, you might be alright. If not you will find yourself behind the wheel most of the time. So the first driver to get qualified in your operation should be you because I 've seen plentyof people who believed that all they had to do was to get a bunch of routes then just sit back and count the money becoming " managers" or absentee owners only to discover that its not like that at all.
