Green as can be NEW
by: 165a

Hi there Jimmy,
I have basically got an unsighned contract to haul crude. I am a veteran commercial diver. I have a good job and am always looking fo a change of scenery.
I know very little about the transportation industry "green". I have the funds to get my hands on a truck and 407 trailer. I basically know of the associated costs involved.
I do the math and it seems like a nobrainer. To good to be true. What am I missing? Like I said I am green to the industry. I truly don't know.
Am I crazy to ditch a career making very good money to be my own man in a business that I don't know the ins and outs of? Brutal honesty is the way I like to hear it.
Thanks for your time.
