One Month as an Owner Operator: $25,000 Bill for Truck Repair
After just one month of owning my truck, I was hit with an unexpected $25,000 repair bill. From a $44K estimate to a $25K final cost, dealing with the dealership, navigating warranty issues, and spending over a month without my truck, this experience has been a true eye-opener. In this video, I share the harsh realities of being an owner-operator, the challenges I faced, and the lessons I’ve learned. If you’re considering becoming an owner-operator, or just want to know what it’s really like, this video is for you.
