Thomas, in my opinion you are legal to drive as long as you are not pulling a trailer. Classes of License: The Federal standard requires States to issue a CDL to drivers according to the following
Luis, if you really want to do your homework, start here: http://www.commercialcarrieruniversity.com/index.shtml Succession Planning Financial Statements Business Plans Life-Cycle Costs
Luis, the short answer is maybe. It's no different than any other business, if your sales exceed your costs you can make a profit. You need a business plan that answers the questions, what is my top
You are right TJ. I misunderstood what you were asking. Once you have your operating authority, insurance, etc. then it's just a business problem. But you will need all of the skills to run a business
TJ, there is no shortcut. You either run under another carriers authority or get your own. If you try to run independent without authority you are breaking the law which is why shippers won't entertain
