Your going to need to figure your fuel costs. And upkeep of the rig your going to use. Be ready and prepared to deal with any problems that may arise. Also take pictures of every car before and after. Make sure they sign off on every car too.

. Use full-synthetic lubricants in the engine, transmission, power steering, chasis, differential, and transfer case.

. Install a supplemental transmission cooler.

. Take care of your cooling system. Use a 50/50 mixture of the manufacturer recommended antifreeze and distilled water.

. Other ideas are provided in the link below:

If you are going to broker loads to carriers you will need to be bonded. If you are going to be the carrier then you will not need the bond but you will need an Icc authority dot number etc. I need more info on what you are trying to start to give you advice. I write a blog called transportfool.com that might have some info for you too.
