Great job Chris! Keep your head up and think every action through! Your first few months are very difficult. Congratz!
Also, its your current location that you put down on your profile.
Yes, Daniel, I know. just have to have a little mystery in my profile. good to hear from you. it's been a few months, but the time seems to fly by lately. any thoughts on the " lease purchase " plans that some trucking companies offer?
Absolutely not, especially as a rookie. There's just not enough worthwhile profit to be made and way too much risk associated with it. As a rookie, you need to learn how to do your job - not run a business. It'll be the worst mistake you've ever made.
Kinda what I thought. thank you
Hey congrats on getting through it Chris! Onward and upward. Now you'll be running with the big dogs, eh?

TruckingTruth was founded by Brett Aquila (that's me!), a 15 year truck driving veteran, in January 2007. After 15 years on the road I wanted to help people understand the trucking industry and everything that came with the career and lifestyle of an over the road trucker. We'll help you make the right choices and prepare for a great start to your trucking career.
Becoming A Truck Driver is a dream we've all pondered at some point in our lives. We've all wondered if the adventure and challenges of life on the open road would suit us better than the ordinary day to day lives we've always known. At TruckingTruth we'll help you decide if trucking is right for you and help you get your career off to a great start.
