The contractor and i have a plan for me to buy his business in 5 years or so, 4 trucks and 4 dedicated runs, and keep his current mileage rate on all trucks, he has been with them since they were rps. Is this the best thing for me? to wait till then or try something else?

It is difficult for anyone to give you a serious answer because there are so many variables. Trucking is highly competitive, and will probably become even more so when the Mexican trucking companies are allowed into the US market in the near future per the Bush plan.
Knowing everthing I know now, I would not get into trucking again if I had it all to do over.
