    Yeah I knew that. Looking for the cheapest way to go about getting them. Kinda getting discouraged here, but still going at it.

    We had to go usdot because we cross state lines. I will have to look up the specific letter designations we have. Also had to get a Mc number. We did it all through usdot.

    Yeah if not, I know a gal that runs a insurance company thingy that handles Big Rigs and she said she would cut me a deal. Where did you go for your operating authority? Biggest question with that is that register under? FTL LTL Household or what?

    That's what ours is legaly ours is a sole proprietorship, I just say DBA because its shorter :rofl it the best and easiest way to handle it in my experience. We had to search to find our insurance because most places don't offer what you will need. We had state farm car insurance and they say they offer commercial but when you ask them about that kind of insurance they say oh no we don't carry stuff like that.

    Yeah I am probably going to "set up" a Sole Proprietorship. So that still leaves the question of insurance. I guess that would be though me, on a commercial policy of course. I wonder if I can get insurance though my old insurance agent in PA, since its a nationwide commercial policy. He used to cut me a great deal.

    No, my opinion is stay away from that llc crap, it will screw you. Neither one of our businesses are llc's.

    Okay will I was just gonna form a LLC, and pay myself the federal mileage rate at the end of the year for the use of the truck, and pay for truck expenses. So from what I gathered here, is I would still need to do that and register as a DBA so I can get stuff done.

    You have to have a commercial insurance policy....1 million dollars on your truck and another policy for 100,000 bucks on your cargo. We are a DBA so its in mine and the company's name.

    Here is another question. Do you have your truck insurance though you or the company?

    Yeah I have never had any problems really. Did get pulled in the scale house for rolling a stop sign that wasnt there. He just wanted to check my weight on the registration. Man I need to get back out there. This sitting at the house stuff is killing me
