Hey O/O's I'm considering purchasing a truck next year and have a few questions. I am currently a business owner NOW and know how to successfully run a business and I've also driven for TMC flatbed for a year. I LIKE driving OTR but want a little more freedom. My questions are as follows:
1- Better to Lease or Own?
2- As an O/O, is one free to choose his freight and how hard (or easy) one runs?
3- If you agree to haul freight for one company, for example TMC, are you limited to working ONLY for them?
4- What is the APPROXIMATE typical income average for an O/O after expenses?
That's it for now. I'm sure I'll have more and/or those replying will enlighten me to stuff I've never even considered. Thanks for looking.
