1. when they write 100% fuel surcharge, does that mean they pay for all fuel?
No. That means that the entire fuel surcharge goes to owner operator. When you find a company that will pay for all of an owner operator's fuel, let me know.

2. when they say 70% pay per load, how do you know how much the load really is, or does it have paperwork?
Most companies that pay percentage have it written in the lease agreement that you can view the revenue from a load to make sure that you are getting paid correctly.

3. it seems that when any company comes up in discussion they are all bad, what companys do you guys think are good to drive for?
C.R. England.

4. is it good to buy a new truck or used when going o/o
Yes.

Go ahead with CRE lease purchase plan. I'm sticking with PRIME and going to pretend that I am a O/O. My lease purchase is better then yours.

In reality, when those "git-r-dun" drivers in the CRE trucks pass me, I chuckle to myself, knowing that I'm earning a hell of a lot more than they are for every mile my wheels turn. :lol:
