How many hours a week are you working?With a shop, three non paid off trucks and my cushy salary, I need $30k a month to "break even" cash flow wise.

There, I fixed it for you.With a shop, three non paid off trucks, a new boat and my cushy salary, I need $30k a month to "break even" cash flow wise.
So will you be looking to sell it while it still has value and get something new that isn't as prone to having problems?Equipment will be paid off this year.
That is a very good question. Something I’m contemplating at the moment. Yes I could sell it and re-invest in something new for myself. But, I am at a tipping point to where I need a second truck on the road possibly. So after this one is paid for, I could take that money and invest in a brand new set up. Or I may put another van together. To have a technician cleaning empties. To be honest, I am having trouble turning the corner from owner/operator to multi truck. Two truck. November will be 13 years flying solo.So will you be looking to sell it while it still has value and get something new that isn't as prone to having problems?

will catch up with you sooner rather than later!
There are some aspects of business management I I need to get dialed in. Being an owner/operator can make you lax in those areas.TURN THE CORNER!!!! Priority Friend! Solo

It also takes a while to figure out what kind of business you want to have. I had zero background in this industry when I started.The decades fly by when you’re grinding. It does seem to me with a paid for rig in good condition would put you in a better position
to make the leap.
That seems like a perfect rig to put a new tech in. New enough that it shouldn't have too many nagging issues, one enough that you won't have a coronary when they pulverize a mailbox with itIt’s a great truck. 2016 Ford transit medium roof.
