{"replyTo":"","text":"I don’t know why there’d ever be a democrat truck driver. You have to be off yer rocker. They want to eliminate leases because they don’t want the environmental benefits of new equipment? I don’t know why. They want to increase fuel prices taxes insurance and eventually take away your license. Why would any trucker belong to this anti trucker group people ever. We aren’t quite at $4 a gallon yet. Working hard at it though. Sure be an o/o Democrat driver. Buy a straight jacket while you’re at it. ","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":".02 a mile fuel instead of .85 a mile. Lower insurance costs because you are getting a group contract rate. There’s a lot of purchase power in being in a large group. I’m a lease operating LLC and I’m 100% SOLVENT because I owe nothing for equipment. 100% solvent since I started. Guess how many companies can boast solvency starting their first quarter? Almost none. Im not operating under my own authority but it’s a great way to get your hands on  new equipment without owing. Its not a super great time to be O/O with a Democrat government. Give me your O/O attitude but my company is S O L V E N T. Operates without any debt whatsoever. My money is mine.","replyToPid":0}

And I’m only gonna run in Cali from sac to LA home every other day and it will be easy to gross over 7k a week when each trips only costing 300$ in fuel. Or I can go from so cal to WA state for some really great paying loads. The current company I’m under now charges 10% of my gross so, for my trip to GA from sac I’m doing right now lays 9800 they will take 980$!  It’s a great time to be an o/o I still make my own schedule either way but to have the opportunity to make 20k to 50 plus k a month I never new the Buis was so sweet I just hope rates stay like this ","replyToPid":0}

","text":"why inject politics into this. Nobody cares what an O/o political affiliation is. All that matters is that they run a tight business and keep turning a profit. I have Zero debt, work 9 months out of the year.and 100% of my revenue belongs to me as well as the profits. Why would I want to work hard to let someone skin off the stop. I also do not have to use load boards or pay broker fees, I built my own clientele.","replyToPid":448672}
