That Volvo looks to have been driven hard and stored wet.

LOL! 
It's nothing compared to the property!
That’s great for you.
I would file a mechanics lien on that job, or get plenty of cash up front. Never trust those Craigslist customers any further than you can kick them down the street!
HOS:
Hours Of Service
HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

Thanks Tractor Man!
I have found most of my best clients (and all of my worst nightmares) on CL!
I don't file liens. Only have 10 days as a Primary, doing the work. Easier to sue in small claims court. $5 docketing fee automatically applies liens to ALL PROPERTIES OWNED in the county.
Got E-payment for last two days labor and trip charges before leaving for the day.
Compared to the morons he fired, I am a G-d to him! Everything in life has risks! With all my "stuff" going on I missed my court date on the one deadbeat I am suing. Motion to reopen in about 10 days!

So beyond the money and challenges to fix all the crap the fired morons did wrong (and yes, being right a lot)... former tenant left a small microwave behind. I think that is how I mentioned my CDL and plans.
Guess who now has (if I don't forget to take it) a perfectly sized truck MW. Hope it works!
CDL:
Commercial Driver's License (CDL)
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
- Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
- Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.

Yep! Never know when you may need one!
I am currently dealing with issues regarding stuff, storage, new housing situation, etc.. The last thing one could argue I need is a small white MW...
Can't wait to bring it home an test her out!
I think I will even do tests to figure out differences in times needed to accomplish routine tasks (vs. larger one).

Took a chance and shared my trucking aspirations and status with a new handyman customer. (Working on one of the 5 or so properties he has purchased in Milwaukee in the last year).
And he says... "Really? I own two trucks!"
No, it doesn't change my plans. But really?
What are the odds?
