[QUOTE="504RP, post: 1693112, member: 40335"] No I don't have a cdl but feel pretty sure I could get one. Got alot of work on my farm that it will be used for. And used only for my own personal use, won't be hireing out to anyone. Was told as long as that's all use it for ( My farm ) I might not have to have a cdl ? Your right about all the variables and type of truck to get. That is something I am trying to decide on. I am thinking maybe a twin screw with at least one pusher axle that I could haul around 20,000 lbs on. Maybe 4 or 500 horse Cummins, and 16 speed transmission, maybe an Allison transmission. I have got a couple PM so far that has been very helpful and i appreciate the information. Know what you mean about beware of what you buy deal. Even though I am looking now. It might be several months possibly a year before i find what I am looking for. Right now i am trying to educate myself as to what to look for. Have some friends who will give me their opinions on whatever I look at before i buy anything. One is a shop maintance foreman over Tysons haul trucks, one has 30 + years driveing semis hauling water and other stuff, have some friends that have their own trucking businesses. So hopefully with their help I won't get ripped off too bad. I had one my friends tell me that he knows how i work when it comes to buying something. He said that he knew I would read and research something over and over before i ever bought whatever it is that I plan on buying. He thought it was real funny because i do that ? I told him I just think it's smart doing things that way. [/QUOTE]
