Hi everyone,
well, i have been driving now for over 15yrs. Otr and local oh and I have also driven overseas (the infomous sand box iraq that is). I am looking at buying my first truck which is a 2000 kenworth w900, I have been in contact with Oakley trucking out of arkansas. Since I have some knowledge on the fracing game i was told they would be willing to put me on that. I am fine with running tanks and mountain driving but like everyone else on here I dont run for charity. I guess what i would like to know is has anyone ever work for oakley doing this type of work and can you make the money that the company is telling me you can make ($4000-10000/wk) i understand its all in how you run. Also, i am been told that they give you permits,plates ect. As well as a trailer which there is no rental fee.
being that i am new to being an owner operator what other kinds of hints could anyone else give me like do i get my own plates and permits or use the companies tto ty to keep my costs low till i get more money, do i jump right in and go for my own authority or try to gt hooked up qith a few differant companies. Another thing also is i do really enjoy running dump trailers but it seems like unless you know somebody that knows somebody back here in northeast pa you cant get nothing going with a dump trailer and if you do find work its paying peanuts.
thanks for reading my post and if you have any comments or suggestions i would really like to hear them
