Congratulations and glad for you!!! I never was against a cpm job. Things can be done incrementally. Only Super Steve can buy a truck and then learn how to operate it.
You have none of the headaches of finding loads.
Your deadhead is covered, hey, the more the better. :wink:
Fsc is guaranteed, I believe- let fuel hit $4 per gallon!
Company trailer, insurance, benefits, facilities
Large freight base to get you back to the house
None of that other crap I still don't even know like: logbook requirements, fuel tax payments, factoring, brokers, drug testing, purchasing plates, permits, insurance...
You get yourself established and take it from there. But please do keep us posted, we
never hear from cpm guys over here. :lol:
