vcraten,

Are you serious or is this a joke :-)

Try a used truck yard and look up the yellow pages for a loan company!

But why anyone would want to get into the trucking business is beyond me, there are much easier ways to make money I think. Transport is very competitive and has very low margins. You need to be BIG to make it worthwhile.

What part of the World are you in?

Do you have any experience of working in a truck company, let alone running one? If not I would go to work for someone else for a while. Then maybe you will decide that something else, like owning a DVD store makes more sense :-)

Good luck.

Very easy. I can give you a good tip, that will save you months and years of heartache and eventual ruin.

Send me the $10,000, and go find a job :-)

Sorry, but I think it's a crazy idea.
