Description:
Good afternoon everyone, I have always wanted to own and run my own truck. Since I came to North Dakota I went from having only 3 pieces of luggage to having vehicles that I buy and re-sell. I own my own 1999 Freightliner (I bought with Cash), a Bellydump (I bought with Cash), and a Flatbed trailer (I also bought with Cash). I sold the 2 trailer, they are out on Contract. I had no money to run them so I decided to put them up for sale on payments as to help others also trying to succeed. I ran my Flat and truck for 3 weeks and had I more money at start-up I would have been more successful myself, but I cashed everything out wright so my funds were limited. If I can get more Trucks and Trailers and a "lot" (piece of land) for a shop I believe I can totally be "successful". I know there is a place about 5 miles South of town here is only 10+ acres and cost $275,000.00 (I believe is still available), but is on the main Highway. I can either put trucks Hauling flatbeds or water tankers, even bellydumps, as long as their tri-axles. I dispatch for a sand company at the moment, as well as I have been here in the Bakken oil Patch for the last 5 years as of June 2, 2012. I need to keep things on the down-lo, since everything I been doin to help these people they still do it their way. I try to even just go transfer titles to land I bought else-where on slow days still they don't let me go. I work 6am until 6:30pm, so if any of you want to chat Please wait until after 6:30pm. "Thank-you" all for your "Valuable" time. Robert J Landon
