Dont know about the plumbing business, but electrician is no good. A friend of mine went to school for that, he put out dozens of resumes 2 years after he graduated with zero results... hes now driving a forklift for $9 an hour.
BTW... if I got the truck I was going to stay where I'm at until it was paid for. MHC Kenworth financing turned me down... said I wasnt in the trucking business long enough. Here I always though 3 years would be plenty... go figure. Thought about going to my bank but I figure I'll just sit tight and see where the economy is going. The salesman said a couple guys from California came and got them. He said he had another T600 about the same year that just came in, but the price was in the 30,000's and I didnt want to go that high.

I guess that's because people jump in and buy that truck, then can't manage their business good enough just to break even. You hear about first time buyers biting off more than they can chew.... On the other side, with the banks failing all around us, they have a tighter grip on their money so they don't go under as well. It's kinda wierd, i know, because lending out the money is their business. But they too want to be safe about it. Isn't their some kind of help for truckers wanting a loan for a rig? Like a small business loan? or something? Something that the govt. will back up the loan for truckers to get a new or used rig to start out with?

The salesman called today and said he got me approved for zero down financing through a local bank, but I'm gonna hold off for now.
