Financing Services For All Types Of Heavy Commercial Vehicles
Tumblr media
If you run a business that requires the use of large motor vehicles, such as dump trucks, box trucks, semis, tractors, or fire engines, you know how important it is to have reliable transportation. However, financing these vehicles can be difficult, especially if you have less than perfect credit or are a first-time owner-operator. In this article, we will walk you through the steps you need to take to secure financing for your commercial vehicles.
Finding Commercial Vehicle Financing Companies The first thing you need to do is locate commercial truck financing companies that specialize in financing commercial vehicles. These companies often work in conjunction with dealerships to provide financing solutions. While automobile loans for everyday vehicles are a regular service offered by banks, commercial vehicle financing can be difficult to obtain from banks for small businesses and owner-operators.
Cost of Financing Both equipment leases and loans may be considered commercial vehicle financing. With a loan, you will eventually become the legal owner of the vehicle, while leasing means that your monthly payments are applied to the rental of the vehicle for the duration of the lease. Leasing can have advantages such as lower monthly payments, but with a loan, you can be certain that you will own the vehicle at the end of the loan's term.
Factors Affecting Financing Your driving schedule, gas mileage, maintenance needs, and insurance premiums will all play a role in determining the type of vehicle you should choose. Since most people cannot afford to buy a heavy commercial vehicle outright, the most pressing concerns are what your regular payments will be under a certain financing arrangement and how much of a down payment you can expect.
Your credit score, the amount of equity you have, the truck you choose, and your payment history on an existing commercial vehicle loan will all play a role in determining your down payment and monthly payment. This will affect your charges, but if you are a first-time owner-operator, this should not be a problem.
Steps to Take for Financing Your Commercial Vehicle Once you have decided to apply for finance, there are some basic things you will have to do.
Tumblr media
Eligibility Based on a few key indicators, you can determine whether or not you will be approved for a loan. The better your credit, the less you will need to put down initially and the less you will pay every month. Many finance services will try to help you even if your credit is not perfect, but you should also consider the truck's age and condition.
Loan Options There are different loan options available depending on your financial situation. Financing for first-time business owners, inexperienced operators, insolvent business owners with support payments or tax arrears or liens, and limited-capacity fleets are all available. You can inquire with your semi truck financing dealer about possibilities from the lenders they work with.
Paperwork To get things moving with your lender, you will need to provide some paperwork via a dealership or directly to the lender. Some of these may include certification of your company's incorporation, checking and savings account records (up to 1 year), forms for filing taxes by businesses (up to 3 years), profit and loss statement for the current year, current company financial statements, any necessary licences and/or accreditations for operating a business, a copy of your commercial driver's licence, and your motor carrier number.
Insurance When deciding which semi-truck or commercial vehicle to buy, remember to factor in insurance costs. Commercial vehicles need a different kind of insurance than personal automobiles due to the increased wear and tear they experience on the road. Business car insurance policies have very comparable requirements and cover responsibility for damage to property and personal injury, collision policy, and uninsured operator coverage. The premiums paid for commercial automobile insurance may be deducted from taxable income.
Submitting Your Loan Application Submitting your loan application is the last step.
After you have submitted your loan application, the lender will review it and determine whether or not to approve your request. If you are approved, you will receive the funds necessary to purchase the commercial vehicle. From there, you can work with the dealership or seller to finalize the purchase and get behind the wheel of your new vehicle.
It is important to keep in mind that purchasing a commercial vehicle is a significant investment and should be approached with careful consideration. Make sure to do your research and choose a vehicle that meets the specific needs of your business. Additionally, be sure to factor in the ongoing costs associated with owning and operating a commercial vehicle, such as fuel, maintenance, and insurance.
If you are unsure about how to proceed with financing a commercial vehicle, consider consulting with a financial advisor or reaching out to a reputable commercial vehicle financing company for guidance. They can provide you with expert advice and help you navigate the often complex process of securing financing for your business.
In conclusion, financing a commercial vehicle is an important decision that requires careful consideration and planning. By taking the time to research your options, understand the costs involved, and work with a reputable financing company, you can secure the funds you need to purchase the commercial vehicle that will help your business succeed and grow.

Tumblr media
The moving van’s AC went out about 75 miles ago, and you can’t bother getting too upset about it. It goes right along with the absolute dogshit spectacle your life has become. The sweat trickles down your back as you keep your eyes focused on the road. The GPS says it’s not too much longer. Your ass is sore from sitting and driving all day, for the past three days. 
It should’ve been two at most - more like one and a half at even a leisurely pace - but the engine had started smoking and making an awful clicking sound somewhere in between Colorado and Oklahoma. You waited 6 hours for the moving truck company to meet you and switch out vehicles. At least the van hadn’t gone up in flames and destroyed all your messily packed cardboard boxes.
The string of down-on-your-luck events provided you with some sort of distraction from the reason you were cooped up in this incinerator of a vehicle and heading home to Texas where your parents still lived, a far cry from the life you had carved out with your fiance - ex-fiance, you correct yourself – in Colorado. 
Ah, yes. Mike. Michael, you think to yourself bitterly. He always hated whenever anyone used his full name instead of his nickname. You were at that level of petty, insulting him in any way that you could. You knew you’d never get close to matching his efforts at hurting you, though.
It had been a great relationship for the first few years. You had met him at his job where you were logging unpaid internship hours so you’d have something to put on your resume when you graduated with your finance degree. Math and economics had always been easy and interesting to you, although it didn’t make you very popular at parties. 
Mike– No, MICHAEL, had been sweet and teased you about how you were “too cute” to be an accountant. You had thought to yourself on numerous occasions that accountants could really use a PR overhaul. Most of your coworkers were nerdy introverts with a dark sense of humor and a penchant for getting ripshit wasted after The Hellfire Summit was over. (That’s what you all called Tax Day.)
But you weren’t “too cute” to be an accountant. Too cute for Michael, maybe, but definitely not some knockout. You had always been on the heavier side starting in middle school. You were vertically challenged, which meant there was a lot less real estate for any additional poundage you racked up through puberty. Your mom had done her best to not give you a complex, but you weren’t stupid and it wasn’t hard to figure out why she was so insistent on you being in sports throughout most of the year. You had taken to soccer pretty quickly, and the endless running kept your weight from climbing into absolute fat pig territory. Not that you didn’t think of yourself that way regardless.
While all your other teammates cried about their boobs not growing - something you had absolutely no way of relating to - you cursed the puberty gods for not giving you a growth spurt of 6” so you could be tall and lean like your friends. By the time college rolled around, you just stuck to running as a stress reliever, but it wasn’t the same level of activity that had kept you smaller throughout high school. The bathtub jungle juice frat parties and 2 am pizza slices didn’t really help matters, either. You put on a respectable “freshman 8,” but your hips and ass delivered it as more of a “freshman 23.”
Michael always talked about how he liked “somebody that didn’t just order a salad,” whatever the fuck that was supposed to mean. You didn’t pay it much mind, though, when your sex life was pretty good together. He made you come more than other guys you’d been with, but it wasn’t hard to exceed expectations when the bar was so low it was in hell. And yet, Michael had found a way to sink it down ever farther.
You should’ve seen it coming. In hindsight it was so painfully obvious that something had changed for the worse. You had chalked it up to him getting nerves after FINALLY proposing to you. You were so happy when he finally asked you to marry him. Even his 15 year old son from a previous relationship had made a remark about his dad “finally growing some balls” and proposing.
A wash of sadness rolled over you at the thought of Ethan. He was such a good kid, and you had become attached to him after being with Michael for so many years. You’d moved in together, and Ethan thoughtfully cleared off a shelf of his video game things so that you’d have a nice spot in the living room for some of your DVDs and books. How on earth that was the child of the piece of shit cheating scumbag Michael was beyond you. Ethan must have taken after his mother more than you previously knew.
Michael had been married before and had Ethan with his ex-wife Patty. They had just “grown apart” as he’d put it. They got together when they were young, and it wasn’t until his 38th birthday party that he realized they just weren’t meant for each other anymore. 
You’d been upset at first to learn that Michael had started seeing you before he had “made it official” with Patty that things were over. You weren’t into the idea of being the other woman, and you didn’t blame Patty for hating your guts. Of course she would assume that you knew they were still married and that they had a young son together. You were the homewrecker whore, and it was humiliating to tag along to family events where Patty and some of their mutual friends gave you a not-so-subtle stink eye.
The friends that did readily accept you weren’t exactly top of the line human beings. Luke had clapped you on the back once after having three too many beers and cackled about how he knew Michael wasn’t crazy for switching things up and breaking things off with Patty “for you.” When you shrugged his sloppy hand off your shoulder and asked what the fuck he was on about, his shit eating grin was the icing on the cake when he slurred, “Well’ya knowwwwww what’hey say, dontcha?” You shook your head, nonplussed and not really interested in learning “what they say.” He giggled and leaned in close when he revealed that “gotta be takin’ care’uhhh him ‘cause they say thah big girls give’thuh bes head ‘cuz they’re al-huways hungry.”
Trevor had intervened before you slammed your mojito into Luke’s Neanderthal brain. “Hey man, fuck off. Don’t  be saying shit like that. Fuckin’ rude, dude.” Luke had made a fuss about how he was “jusss jok-eeen,” but Trevor wasn’t having it. “Whatever, man. Everybody knows you don’t go around talking about girl’s bodies, you fucking idiot. And you’re watching too much porn if you think she’s fat. She’s normal, man. Real women aren’t walking around like stick figures with tits and ass glued on.”
You groaned while Luke howled with laughter at Trevor’s defense of you. Calling you fat was somehow worse than big girl. Luke hadn’t said fat. Trevor hadn’t either, but his off the cuff remark that clarified what “type of big” you obviously were only drove home the idea that you took up too much space, one way or another.
Michael had taken a while to propose, and he always claimed that, while he loved you with his whole entire heart, he was nervous about getting married a second time. He started getting snippier with you and not wanting to have sex as often. His job was stressful, and he had been working tons of overtime to help pay for his part of the wedding. Thank god you kept your finances separate and never actually did walk down that aisle.
His late nights at the office were verified by his bigger paychecks, and you didn’t have a reason to be suspicious. You did think it was a little strange when he started getting up early to go to the gym so he’d “look nice for the wedding.” But hey, what a breath of fresh air, right? A man being the one concerned about how he was going to look in his wedding photos? Hitting the gym at an ungodly hour just to shed a few pounds? It was kinda like some weird form of feminist allyship, subverting societal body expectations. Right?
When you popped in to surprise him with a late dinner at work one night - you still had your keycard from your unpaid internship that nobody had remembered to disable – you found him balls deep in the tiny little blonde you later learned was the daughter of some higher up in the company that was “following in his footsteps at the company with an internship.”
Michael was such an uncreative asshole that he couldn’t even come up with a different meetcute for the leggy, fit blowup doll he’d replaced you with. At first you were enraged, but that quickly dissolved into despair. You were supposed to be getting married in 8 months. He was supposed to be the love of your life. You had wasted your 20s on this piece of shit, waiting around like a moron for him to decide he wanted to spend his life with you. 
So here you were, sweating your ass off, moving your shit several states away, and starting at square one. The dark, moody sky made you roll your eyes. You figuratively and literally had a little black cloud over your head that followed you everywhere. If the impending bad turn of weather could just hold off for a little bit, you could get your “FIRST NIGHT IN NEW PLACE” box unpacked and inside unscathed.
Of course it started pouring buckets about 5 minutes after you’d parked the van in the driveway of your rental. Your new home. Where you lived by yourself. Alone. That’s all you were now. Alone. You dragged in your soggy cardboard box of necessities, only unpacking your phone charger before plopping down on the bare mattress your parents had been nice enough to drop off before your arrival.
You spend the first night at your place crying yourself to sleep.
Tumblr media
Texas had gotten hotter since you’d left. No way was it always this hot. You used to play outdoor sports here, for chrissakes. There was no way on earth it had always been the same temperature as Satan’s ballsack in a pair of wool underwear. Maybe it’s hotter because you’re fatter than before your inner voice suggested. You were drenched in sweat by the time 11am rolled around and you’d finished unpacking your small collection of belongings. You never realized how much of your Colorado apartment was mainly Michael’s stuff until you had to clear all your shit out for the move. Humble beginnings, I guess you think to yourself.
Your tank top stuck to your drenched back, and your thighs were slightly chaffed from the hard rub of denim over and over while you moved in. Your stupid, fat thighs and the stupid, fat chubrub they gave you. That unfortunately was something that hadn’t changed about Texas. You always carried your weight in your hips and butt, and your thighs came to join the party shortly thereafter. You had gained a few pounds after dating Michael for a year or so, settling into that comfortable couple space where you sometimes go for donuts when you know you shouldn’t or indulge in breweries too many weekends in a row. 
You were fat and happy together, though. Now you were just fat and sad all by yourself.
Tumblr media
You stared at the lawnmower and imagined it bursting into a ball of flames. Your landlord had agreed to knock $100 off your rent if you mowed the lawn once a month. It was a no brainer, even if you had never mowed a lawn before. How hard could it be? Turns out, very.
You gave yourself a pep talk through figuring out how to put the gas into the stupid thing, but it had petered out into an irritated chant of “you piece of shit” and “fucking work, goddamit” when you couldn’t get it to start. You’d pulled and pulled and PULLED the stupid chord, but it wouldn’t start up. You wanted nothing more than to finish your chore and head inside before it got way too hot. You’d planned on already being finished by now. Michael had always made quick work of it, and if that room temperature IQ fuckwit could figure this out then so could you. Maybe.
When you pulled back again and nothing happened, something sort of cave woman happened in your brain, and you started kicking the mower in a fit of frustration. “FUCKING-PIECE-OF-SHIT!” you yell, accentuating each kick to the machine with a malice-laden word. When you propped your hands on your hips and took a step back to really give it a good, solid glare, you saw a man the next house over watching you with an amused look at the edge of his property.
“Need some help?” he called out, his smile growing.
“EVERYTHING’S GOING REAL FUCKING GOOD OVER HERE, BUT THANKS FOR THE OFFER,” you quip with way more acidity than this man deserved.
He took your stinging remark in stride and just smirked more. If he wasn’t so good looking you probably would’ve yelled at him for real. You needed a break and didn’t really care for your handsome neighbor to watch you fail at life, so you wordlessly stomped inside and plopped down with a bottle of water in hand. Was it too early for this water to turn into a beer? 11 am. Damn. You were pretty low these days, but you weren’t sure you wanted to take a trip down “drinking by yourself before noon” lane.
You sigh and play with the bottle cap as you try to ignore your growing embarrassment of being so rude to your hot neighbor. The sound of a lawn mower finally registers in your brain, and you scramble to the window to confirm your suspicions. Yep, there was your fine as fuck neighbor pushing your broken lawnmower around your backyard. It was definitely broken. He must have fixed it. It definitely wasn’t that you were entirely clueless about all this.
You groan and muster up some resolve before heading back outside. You wave at the absolute DILF-iest of DILFs you’ve ever seen in your life to get his attention. As though he was expecting you, he calmly turns off the engine and jerks his head up once in your direction.
“What are you doing?” you blurt out.
There’s that smile again. Damn, he must practice that in the mirror because holy shit it is very hard to think right now with him looking at you with it.
“Bein’ friendly to my new sailor-mouthed neighbor,” he drawled casually.
Goddamit. His voice was smooth and deep up close. And his hair, oh my god his hair. Peppery brown and slightly disheveled and wavy in all the right spots. And his eyes? Those puppy dog brown eyes that you thought just gave you a quick once over? You were kicking yourself for not being nicer earlier.
“Look, you don’t have to–”
“Name’s Joel Miller. What’s yours, sweetheart? And tell me quick, ‘cause I really think it might turn into Popeye if you don’t give me an alternative,” he teased.
Popeye? What on earth– Oh. Christ almighty. Right. Popeye. The “sailor man.” Because you have a “sailor mouth.” Okay, now the DILF was knocking out some dad jokes? You needed to find the box you’d packed your vibrator in that plugs into the wall after this little interaction.
“Kinda wanna tell you that you can call me whatever you want if you’ll just teach me how to turn that stupid thing on,” you say, motioning toward the traitor of a lawn mower.
“Hm, anything I want, huh? Temptin’. Maybe next time I’ll give ya a 101, but lemme just finish this up right quick.” Without giving you the chance to argue, he ripped the chord with a salivating flex of his bicep and resumed his task.
You awkwardly walked back up to your porch and tried to busy yourself with something. You didn’t want to go back inside and wait for him to finish. That’d be rude, him out in the sun doing your chores while you cooled off in the AC inside. You gave enough “lazy slob” vibes as it was. Luckily it didn’t take him much time at all to finish, and his sweaty brow was very distracting as he clambered up your steps. You had to keep your jaw shut when he pulled up the hem of his shirt to wipe it across his forehead, revealing a respectably toned middle. He was fitter than you by far. Not that that was a hard feat.
This DILF to end all DILFs had a toned body that shouldn’t have been such a surprise to you after seeing his muscular arms as they maneuvered the lawn mower. You suddenly felt self-conscious in your tank top and denim shorts. You were sure you were bulging out all over the place and looked like a sweaty pig. You hated how easy it was these days to get down on yourself, but seeing the blonde bombshell Michael had traded you for was all you could compare yourself to. The phrase “you can’t compete where you don’t compare” turned over and over in your head.
“See? Easy. Now about that name…” he trailed off, smiling now with a mischievous, friendly look.
“Oh. Yeah, um. Roxanne. But Roxy is fine,” you say.
Joel tilted his head as though he was considering how your name stacked up to how you looked, to see if it fit you or not. Heat crept up your cheeks under his gaze, and a fresh wave of insecurity engulfed you.
“Pretty,” he remarked.
“Huh?” you ask, sounding dumber by the minute.
Joel just keeps smiling at you, no matter how braindead you sound. “I said pretty. Your name’s pretty. Fits you,” he said.
You really wanted to believe this man was flirting with you, but it was wishful thinking.
“Hmm. Th-thanks. Um. Do you want money or?” you clumsily offer. You didn’t want to send him off empty handed after he just did you such a big favor.
“Two beers,” he posed.
You went inside and grabbed two cold beers from the fridge and loped back outside, extending them to Joel. He opened them both and made himself comfortable in one of your patio chairs. He set the second bottle on the arm of the chair next to him and pulled a long swig from his bottle. You watched the bob of his adams apple as he swallowed, and you knew your panties were gonna be absolutely wrecked by the time you finished your beer.
“Thanks.”
“Cheers.” He tipped his bottle towards you and leaned back, comfortable as ever as if this was his porch and not yours. “Didn’t see ya movin’ in. Musta been in the middle of the night to unpack a whole house without anybody knowin’.”
“Eh, not hard to move when you’ve got less than 20 boxes of shit,” you shrug.
Joel’s eyebrows pinched together in confusion. He clearly hadn’t been thinking you’d come into your new place with bare bones belongings. Someone your age would have at least a few pieces of bigger furniture and a couple of boxes of niche hobbies.
“Rest of it comin’ later, or…?”
“Nope. That’s it. Just me and my less than 20 boxes and a piece of shit lawnmower.”
Joel chuckled, and you found yourself giving him a small, shy smile.
“So you the neighborhood watch captain? Keep tabs on all the fresh meat?”
He laughed like heading up a community group was as likely for him as you figuring out that lawn mower by yourself.
“No quite. Just didn’t realize I had a new neighbor, is all. No car in the driveway. House has been up for rent for a few months,” he explained.
“Oh, yeah. I had a moving van, but I had to turn it back in to them a few days ago unless I wanted to pay for more days. They gave me a ride back. My parents are supposed to let me use one of their cars.”
You and Joel chatted back and forth about the neighborhood, how you’d grown up here and were now back - although you dutifully omitted the reason why - and what you did for work. When he told you he worked in construction with his brother in their small family business, it made a lot of sense. No wonder he was so toned.
Joel actually laughed when you told him you were an accountant. He didn’t believe you at first. When you started citing federal tax law addendums, he held his hands up in mock surrender. You laughed at his teasing. It felt nice to just interact with somebody without having to talk about your recent breakup and all the hard changes you’d been navigating.
“Should make you the poster girl for accountants because damn if I don’t imagine a blue haired lady sportin’ a big pink cardigan and goofy lookin’ glasses whenever I hear the word ‘accountant.’ You’d be the perfect brand image overhaul, sweetheart.” He chuckled, and you did your best to not think about how Michael had once told you that you were “too cute to be an accountant.”
“So, you got an accountant helping with your family business? Or are you just cookin’ the books?” you joke.
Joel rubbed the back of his neck with a nervous laugh. “Nah, we got some somebody at H&R whatever, but the bigger we get the more it seems they wanna charge. Lots of confusin’ shit with all kinds of tax laws. Wouldn’t know if we were gettin’ ripped off by ‘em, if I’m bein’ honest.”
You weren’t sure why you offered. Maybe because he had been kind enough to offer you help and then mow your lawn for you even though you had been an ass. Regardless, you offered to look over some documents and paperwork if he really wanted another set of eyes on it. You dismissed him with the wave of a hand when he started talking about paying you for it.
“Two beers is my rate, Joel,” you say with feigned solemnity.
“Two beers? You drive a hard bargain, sweetheart. I know you’re worth it, though. You free this weekend? Saturday mornin’?”
And that’s how you ended up with plans to help Joel go over his company’s financial information in two days time when Saturday rolled around.
Tumblr media
Joel was singing your praises when you’d already found two instances where they could save some money by changing a few boxes on their taxes and getting things more streamlined with a different organization method for W2’s. You had applied for a few jobs in the area, but most of your pending applications were for virtual jobs that you could work from home. It was good to keep up practice in the meantime.
Joel made you lunch - a nice turkey sandwich with cheddar cheese. He’d mistakenly offered provolone, which you’d chosen, only to find that he had run out and could only offer cheddar instead. You teased him about being an awful host, but really you were glad to not have your favorite cheese on the sandwich because it would help you not eat as fast in front of him. 
You hated feeling like this. You’d spent so many years of puberty pacing your bites with those around you, afraid to eat faster than everyone else. Nobody even gave a shit. You were just so terrified of being humiliated for being the plus sized girl who got that way in the first place because she inhales her food.
“You always eat like a baby bird?” Joel questioned through a large bite of his own sandwich.
“Only when I’m trying to concentrate on taxes and finances,” you lied with a fake giggle. You felt like Joel clocked your put-on nonchalance, but he thankfully didn’t say anything even if he had.
You tugged at the bottom of your shirt, pulling it away from your stomach. You caught Joel watching you do this, but again, he didn’t comment.
He did, however, raise a brow when you insisted you were “too full” to finish the entire sandwich. He played it off with a “damn, you really wanted provolone, huh?” You stuck your tongue out at him but dropped the playful demeanor the second he took the plates to the kitchen. Of course you were still hungry, but you weren’t going to gorge yourself in front of your super attractive neighbor. It wouldn’t kill you to cut a few calories here and there anyway, that familiar voice in your head points out.
Stupid, fat thighs the voice adds quickly, helpful as always.
You’re quick to adopt a smile when Joel comes back, but you aren’t sure you were quick enough for him to have missed the sad, fat, and alone girl’s real expression before flipping the switch.
Tumblr media
It’s Saturday number two of your pro bono accounting skills. Well, it was actually a Thursday since Joel had some construction something or other this Saturday, but every day was a weekend when you were unemployed. 
You had already hung out with Joel three times this past week and shared a few celebratory beers over your work from home job offer that you’d accepted and would be starting next week. Conversation came easy with Joel. He talked about his daughter, who was away at school for the semester, and you realized he must feel very lonely without her home. At least you could relate to him on that level.
You tell him the reason for your move back to your home town. He actually seemed genuinely pissed off when you told him Michael was cheating on you with a pretty little blonde thing and had been for months. You scoffed when Joel said it was Michael’s loss to have fumbled a girl like you.
“Hey,” he asserted, making you pause from the sip of beer you were about to have. “I’m serious. He’s a dumbass for havin’ let you slip through his fingers. You’re funny and smart and got a good head on your shoulders. Sure, you can’t figure out a lawn mower, but we can’t all be perfect.” His goofy grin was a sweet little addition to his playful teasing.
Maybe it was the beer talking, but you couldn’t hold back. “Yeah, well. There’s something you left out of that list there, and it’s probably the reason he did cheat on me.”
Joel shook his head in confusion. He wasn’t sure what he had left out.
You laughed hollowly to yourself, swirling your beer mindlessly as you spoke. “Funny. Smart. Good head on my shoulders. But not pretty, right? Not attractive. Not skinny enough.”
Joel’s expression shifted into something sympathetic and warm, and you hated yourself for having just let that word vomit happen. 
“To be honest, sweetheart, I didn’t wanna say anythin’ that might make you uncomfortable. But I can give you a list a mile long with all the things that are beautiful about you. Inside and out.”
You flush at his appeal to your assets, but you know he’s just being nice. You were pathetic. You were going through a breakup from a relationship that had ended because your fiance was shoving his dick into his coworker. Of course Joel was going to try to boost your self-esteem and give you compliments.
When you didn’t respond, Joel placed his large, warm hand over yours. You looked at it and up to him. He grazed his other hand, a ghost of a curve against your cheek, like he wanted nothing more than to stroke your face and cradle your neck while he drew you into a long kiss and grabbed at your—
No. No he wasn’t. He was just being nice.
“I mean it. That prick is gonna look back and regret losin’ you.”
You wished you could believe him.
When Joel brought you a turkey sandwich for lunch on your second day of helping him, he made sure to point out the provolone. “Got it special for my girl, huh?”
Your tummy flipped at the way he called you his girl, but it was just another one of his terms of endearment that he probably used with everyone. He’d called you angel, sugar, honey, sweetheart, and even Popeye a couple of times. It didn’t mean anything. You weren’t special.
When you pushed your half eaten sandwich away, Joel set his down and waited for you to look at him.
“You don’t like it?” he asked.
“No, it’s great. Thanks for the provolone, by the way. You didn’t have to do that. Really. I’ll um, I’ll just save the rest for later. I’m good for right now.”
Joel’s jaw clenched from side to side before he leaned over in the chair next to you.
“Darlin’, you should eat somethin’. Half a sandwich ain’t shit.”
You shrugged and insisted you weren’t hungry. Joel chewed his cheeks against his molars for a moment before adjusting in his chair and leaning in even closer than before.
“This about that asshole? Messin’ with that blonde?”
You froze at his words. You heart was about to leap out of your chest.
“N-No,” you lie. “I, um, I’m not sure what you mean, Joel.”
“What I mean is you got the idea that you’re not beautiful. That you can’t compare.”
You took a deep swallow to clear the lump in your throat. Your eyes were getting a little blurry. Dammit, you really didn’t want to cry in front of Joel. Not over this stupid bullshit.
“Just leave it, Joel,” you mumble, turning your attention back to the papers on the table.
“Not gonna do that, sweetheart,” he said firmly.
When you looked back at him, there was a dark hunger in his eyes. His usually lax, friendly features were drawn into a stony scowl.
“I meant what I said the other day. You’re beautiful. Everythin’. Everythin’ about you is beautiful.”
“Look, I appreciate you being nice and trying to make me feel better, but you don’t have to–”
“You think I’m lyin’?” he challenged. You swallow hard at his commanding tone, and his words went straight to your pussy. You shook your head, feeling a little more convinced Joel might not be embellishing his opinion of you.
“Jus’ … Hard to think of myself that way, after…” You want to tell Joel every last detail of your life. Every time someone made you feel like you were eating too fast. Every time your friends got flirted with in the mall while you quietly hung at the back of the group. Every time you put something back on the rack after seeing how it accentuated the shape of your body too much to be a cute garment anymore.
Joel turned and was now angled directly at you with a knee tucking itself between your legs. His sinewy, large arm crossed your chest, his hand firmly planting onto the arm of your chair. He dipped his mouth right next to your ear. “You give me the word, sweetheart. Gimme the green light, and I’ll show you just how gorgeous I think you are.”
You’d been here before. The guy begging to show you a good time but only ever ending as a hookup. You were never girlfriend material, but you were a warm, round body for them to get their rocks off for the night. You knew Joel was different. He wasn’t like that. But you still can’t bring yourself to say yes.
“Tell me,” you whisper. Joel pulled back to look at your face. “Just your words.”
“After you let me kiss those sweet lips of yours?” he countered. You nod yes. It was only a kiss.
Joel stood and grabbed your hand, leading you to the couch. He tried to pull you onto his lap, but you knew he’d change his mind about all of this the second your too heavy body crushed his.
He tilts your chin for you to look at him after you sit. His eyes searched for any hesitation or unease. You can’t handle another rejection, so you lean forward. Joel meets you halfway and presses the gentlest of kisses against your mouth. It was feather light in a way that conveyed an intent to go slow rather than a hesitant partner.
His tongue gently flicks against your bottom lip, and you swallow a moan as you let him in. The kiss is agonizing in its slow, mindful pace as Joel makes no rush of exploring every part of your mouth. You suddenly feel very needy. You haven’t been kissed like this in a very long time. You pull at Joel’s shirt, dragging him on top of you as you lay back on the couch. His broad chest easily envelops you, and his large hands twitch with restraint to not smooth over every inch of you.
His grip tightens around your waist as he delves into a hungrier kiss. When he pulls back to adjust his body parallel to yours, the sight of your reddened mouth and blown out pupils almost have him crumbling into you.
“Tell me,” you breathe. “I just-I just want to feel pretty.” You curse the goblin part of your brain that tacked that pathetic sounding plea onto the end of your comment.
“Want me to start slow or you want me to tell you exactly what comes to mind?” he questioned with a flick of his tongue against your earlobe before drawing it into his mouth and sucking.
“Ohhh–ssh-shit– the s-second one,” you manage.
Joel’s deep chuckle sends goosebumps all over your body.
“Thinkin’ ‘bout the first time we met. Wanted you even then. Kept thinkin’ about us sittin’ on your porch. The way you were holdin’ onto that beer bottle? All I could do was imagine how your pretty fingers would look wrapped around my cock,” he murmured into the shell of your ear. “Bringin’ it to those pouty little lips of yours. Goddamn I thought about your tongue on me, baby. Takin’ me in real good in your mouth. Lickin’ this cock that gets hard just for you. That wet, warm mouth just for me.”
Your breath hitches in between Joel’s incredibly specific and detailed account.
“And when you were havin’ that little spitfire spell’uh yours, kickin’ the lawn mower?” he continued, earning a moan from you in half arousal and half embarrassment remembering your temper tantrum that day. “When you kicked it, your tits jiggled all in that little tank top you had on. Had to stop myself from marchin’ over right then and there and shovin’ my dick right in between ‘em and fuckin’ ‘em.”
You would’ve rubbed your thighs together just for the friction right now, but Joel had slotted himself in between your legs and was pushing his hard-on against your clothed pussy in a teasing grind that was driving you insane. Your hips canted at the hint of contact.
“Sittin’ in those cute little cutoffs,” he groaned low. “Your thighs spreadin’ on the seat. Wanted to grab you up and make my face your new seat, baby. Wanted those thighs on either side of my face while you rubbed your pretty little cunt all over my mouth.”
“J-Jesus christ,” you whimper. This man was giving  you the dirtiest play by play of all the ways he’d envisioned himself exploring your body. Your pussy had already bottomed out by the time he got to the part about the lawn mower.
“‘N I jus’ know, baby, I just know it. Know your pussy is made to take this cock, baby. I know it’s perfect. Know it tastes so fuckin’ sweet. Know I’d fuck you ‘til you couldn’t think straight. Make you come on my cock over and over.”
Okay, maybe you could let him do more than just describe how much he wants you.
“‘N then after I work my tongue over you, ‘n after you take this cock so good, I’d grab you up, all to myself. Soft skin against mine. So soft, baby. Pull you in close and never let go. Press you right against me, hold you all night, cuddle up real close. Then wake you up with my dick hard against your perfect ass and fuck into that sweet little hole all over again.”
“Joel,” you whine. 
“Hhmmm?” he drawled innocently, but you could feel his smile against your skin.
“I-I think I changed my mind. About telling me and not showing me. I think that, um, I think I’d really like for you to show me h-how much you want me,” you mumble against his cheek.
“S’that right, honey? You want a little show n tell now?” he teased. For good measure he rocked himself against the apex of your thighs, causing your hips to jerk up involuntarily to meet the movement. He chuckled at your eager change of heart.
Joel wasted no time nibbling and sucking your neck and his hands snaked up your shirt and under your bralette. The pads of his thumbs circle your pebbled nubs, and you let out a choked sigh. He shoved your clothing off with a few tugs and stopped to marvel at your bare top half. “God, even better than I imagined.” 
His greedy eyes raked over every inch of you, a reverential gaze at your curvy figure. Heat spread between your legs when he dipped his mouth to your chest, leaving a wet trail with his tongue and lips in a freeform pattern before drawing your erect nipples between his teeth. Your back curved off the couch in a jerk at the delightful tease.
His hands covered large swaths of your abdomen where he enthusiastically massaged and kneaded into your flesh like he couldn’t grab enough of it at once. You lifted your hips when he pulled your shorts and panties off, and you would’ve been self-conscious about being completely nude while Joel was still fully dressed if you hadn’t seen the way his eyes glazed over with want as he absorbed the sight of you.
“Goddamn,” he breathed. “So pretty. Been wantin’ to drink this pussy from the first time I saw you.” His eyes flitted up to your face with a degree of effort as though he had to tear his gaze away from your heavenly body. He searched your features, checking in and making sure you still wanted this. You nod in consent, and no sooner is his tongue lapping between your folds.
You fist a handful of his hair at the overwhelming feeling of wet heat against you, and Joel groans in a deliciously lewd way that takes you even closer to the limit. He lathes against your heat with the fervor of a devout addict, and you come with a slamming jolt when he simultaneously slips two large fingers into you and sucks your clit.
“There’s my girl,” he coos, working you with a steady drag and push of his fingers as you come down from your high. “Knew you’d look so fuckin’ pretty comin’ undone, baby.” Your first orgasm quickly rolled into a second when Joel drove a third finger into you with a steady thrust. You cry out, clenching around the painfully sweet stinging stretch of his fingers. 
You grab desperately at the tent in his pants. “S��about you today, baby,” he murmured into your thigh where he’s planting slow, sweet kisses. 
“Please, Joel. Want to see you. Taste you,” you rasp out, still pulsing weakly around his digits. You groan when he pulls his fingers from you and laps all the glistening slick from them before standing in front of you. You sit up in a rush, eager to see more of him. He obliges and unfastens his jeans. His impressively thick
length made you gasp when he sprang it free from his underwear. You don’t hesitate to fit as much of him into your mouth as you can, and he lets out a satisfied hum when his tip nudges the back of your throat.
“Shit, I’m gonna come, baby,” he croaked. Apparently working you over had done a number on him already, and it made you want him even more. You wordlessly released him in a sloppy, wet pop from your mouth and tilt your head back, stroking his length with one hand and fondling his balls with the other. When his breathing picks up and he’s on the edge, you stick your tongue out expectantly and continue to fist him until his hips stutter and jerk, his spend cascading onto your cheeks, lips, and tongue.
You both just sprawled out on the couch like two chalk outlines haphazardly jutting into odd angles on pavement. You giggled when Joel asked you if you believed him now, and you said he had indeed made a believer out of you. 
That was the first night you stayed over his place, and just like he had told you earlier that day, he scooped you in close to him, cuddling and shamelessly grabbing at your belly, thighs, and anywhere else he could reach while he peppered the back of your neck with kisses. It was the first time in a very long time that you didn’t once think about how much space you took up.

This one’s for all my baddie thickies out there!
I have hope that one day Miss Thickums® will come to love on herself a bit more because she deserves it, dammit. Also that and the fact that I get down bad for a lil Rubenesque cutie ha ha. 
I hope y’all liked this little pairing! I have been working on Endless Night and Feral Woman but couldn’t get this idea out of my head so I just churned it out. I’m a sucker for fluff and praise, so this was a nice detour from my heavier series (but you should def go check those out too lmao). 
I have so many more ideas for this pairing. I just know that AU friendly DILF neighbor Joel Miller has always been a “more cushion for the pushin” kinda guy and would love to nibble every pudgy roll on your body. His favorite spot is your lil muffin top. That’s my headcannon, and I won’t hear any differing opinions.
Let me know if y’all want more from these two. :)
Catch ya later,

Why Hiring Professional Residential Movers Saves You Time and Money
When it comes to relocating, whether you're moving across town or to a new city, the task can be overwhelming. The logistics involved in packing, transporting, and unpacking your belongings can take a significant toll on your time and finances. This is where hiring professional residential movers, like Vision Movers, can make a substantial difference. Here’s why opting for a professional moving company is a smart choice that can save you both time and money.
Tumblr media
Expertise and Experience
One of the primary advantages of hiring fort lauderdale movers is their expertise in the moving process. Professional movers are trained to handle all aspects of your relocation efficiently. They know how to pack items securely to prevent damage, load and unload heavy furniture, and navigate through tight spaces. This expertise ensures that your move goes smoothly, reducing the risk of costly mistakes.
Time-Saving Benefits
Time is a precious commodity, and moving can consume days, if not weeks, of your time. By hiring local movers from Vision Movers, you can focus on other important aspects of your move, such as setting up utilities and changing your address. Professional movers can often complete the job in a fraction of the time it would take an untrained individual. This efficiency translates to less disruption to your daily life and a quicker transition into your new home.
Cost-Effective Solutions
While it may seem counterintuitive, hiring a moving company can actually save you money in the long run. Many people underestimate the costs associated with a DIY move, including renting moving trucks, purchasing packing supplies, and potentially paying for damages incurred during the move. By choosing movers near me, you gain access to all-inclusive services that cover packing, loading, transportation, and unpacking—all for a fixed price. This predictability in cost can help you budget effectively and avoid unexpected expenses.
Avoiding Injury and Damage
Moving heavy furniture and boxes poses a risk of injury, particularly if you're not experienced in lifting and carrying. Professional movers are trained to handle heavy items safely, minimizing the risk of injury to yourself or your friends and family. Additionally, they have the right equipment to protect your belongings during the move, reducing the chances of damage. This peace of mind is invaluable and can save you from the costs of replacing or repairing damaged items.
Local Knowledge and Resources
If you’re moving within the area, hiring a moving company fort lauderdale based like Vision Movers means you benefit from their local knowledge. They understand the best routes to take, the potential for traffic congestion, and any specific regulations that might affect your move. This local expertise helps streamline the process and ensures a hassle-free experience.
Conclusion
When considering your next move, it’s clear that hiring professional residential movers offers numerous advantages that save you both time and money. With their expertise, efficiency, and comprehensive services, Vision Movers stands out as a trusted partner in your relocation journey. Don’t underestimate the value of a professional moving company; it’s an investment that pays off in more ways than one. Choose local movers who can make your transition as seamless as possible, and enjoy your new home without the stress of moving day hanging over your head.

Streamline Your Office Relocation with Professional Movers
Tumblr media
Although moving your office marks an important milestone, the process may be difficult and time-consuming. Whether your new location is more strategic or you are moving to a bigger area to allow expansion, the logistics of office relocation call for meticulous preparation and professional execution. Working with a skilled office relocation company guarantees a seamless transition and here's why it's so important.

Moving workplaces could disrupt your regular work. Hiring a seasoned relocation company enables you to avoid downtime. Expert movers quickly and skillfully handle packing, shipping, and reassembly so your business might begin daily operations right away.

Professional movers guarantee everything is labeled and arranged using specific packing materials, therefore making unpacking at the new site hassle-free.
3. Safe Handling of Equipment

Particularly in sectors like finance or healthcare, transporting private papers may call for security and regulatory considerations. Expert movers can guarantee that delicate information and goods are safely moved knowing these issues.
Steps to a Seamless Office Relocation
1. Pre-move Planning
Any workplace relocation's success begins with a good plan. Working with you, a professional moving company develops a schedule, assigns duties to be done before, during, and following the relocation.
2. Inventory Management
During a relocation, it is absolutely vital to keep track of all your office supplies and records. Every item in your present location will be completely inventory checked by movers to guarantee nothing is lost or left behind.
3. Packing and Preparation
Everything from deconstructing office furniture to moving computers and papers is handled by specialized packing crews. Good labeling guarantees that everything finds its proper place at the new site.
4. Transport and Logistics
Expert movers guarantee safe transportation of office goods by using specialist trucks and tools. They handle the logistics—including route planning and scheduling—both across the city and to another state.
5. Unpacking and Setup
The moving crew looks after unloading, reassembling furniture, and setting up your equipment once at the new office. This facilitates the procedure so your staff may quickly return to work.
Choosing the Right Office Relocation Service
When selecting a moving service, it’s important to choose a company with experience in office relocations. Look for movers that offer:
Proven Experience: Ensure the movers have handled similar office relocations before.
Customer Testimonials: Read reviews from other businesses to gauge their satisfaction.
Insurance Coverage: Protect your assets by selecting a mover that offers comprehensive insurance coverage.

How To Choose The Best Vehicle Fleet Insurance For Your Company?
Picture this: you’re managing a bustling business, your vehicles are on the road daily, and you’ve just realised you need vehicle fleet insurance. It’s like throwing a surprise party for your company’s safety and financial security. However, choosing the right vehicle fleet insurance can be a bit more complex, unlike party planning. No worries, though—we’ve covered you with a step-by-step guide to ensure you pick the best policy for your business.
Understanding Your Fleet’s Needs
Before diving into the insurance ocean, knowing what’s swimming around in your fleet is crucial. What types of vehicles do you have? Are they all cars, or do you have trucks and vans in the mix? Understanding the specifics of your fleet will help tailor your vehicle fleet insurance policy to fit like a glove. For instance, you might need additional coverage if you have specialised vehicles.
Tumblr media
Assessing Coverage Options
Not all vehicle fleet insurance policies are created equal. Some cover just the basics, while others offer more comprehensive packages. Here’s what to consider:
Basic Coverage: This usually includes liability and collision coverage. It’s the foundation, but depending on your fleet’s risks, you might need more.
Comprehensive Coverage: This goes beyond the basics, covering theft, vandalism, and natural disasters. If your fleet is high-value or operates in risky areas, this could be worth the investment.
Additional Add-Ons: Some policies offer extras like roadside assistance, rental vehicle coverage, and more. Think about what add-ons would benefit your company the most.
Comparing Quotes and Providers
Now that you have a clear idea of what you need, it’s time to shop around. Don’t just settle for the first quote you receive. Compare offerings from various providers to ensure you’re getting the best value. Look beyond the price tag—consider the provider’s reputation, customer service, and policy specifics. A slightly higher premium might be worth it for better coverage and support.
Evaluating Provider Reputation
The quality of your vehicle fleet insurance provider can make or break your insurance experience. Look for insurers with a strong track record of handling claims efficiently. Online reviews, testimonials, and industry ratings can provide valuable insights into their reputation. An insurer with a good reputation will offer reliable coverage and be there when you need it the most.
Negotiating Terms and Conditions
Don’t be afraid to negotiate. Many aspects of a vehicle fleet insurance policy are flexible. You might be able to adjust coverage limits, deductibles, and payment terms to better fit your company’s needs. If you’re unsure about something, ask questions. A good insurance provider will be transparent and willing to work with you to craft a policy that suits your business.
Making the Final Decision
After you’ve done your homework, it’s time to decide. Weigh all the factors: coverage options, costs, provider reputation, and negotiated terms. Choose the vehicle fleet insurance policy that best balances coverage and cost for your needs.
Conclusion
Choosing the correct vehicle fleet insurance for your company isn’t just about ticking off boxes—it’s about securing your business’s future. With the right coverage, you can confidently drive, knowing that your fleet and finances are well-protected. So, buckle up and get ready to hit the road with peace of mind, knowing you’ve made the best choice for your company’s insurance needs.

Comparing the Costs Involved with DIY vs. Professional House Removal Services in Melbourne
Moving to a new house is the embarkation on a new chapter in life and quite possibly one of the most significant milestones one can achieve. The process however comes with a dilemma to counter. There occurs a moment to decide between a DIY move or hiring professional removalists in Melbourne. In Melbourne, where the bustling cityscape meets serene suburban neighbourhoods, such a choice between the two options can significantly impact both your finances as well as your moving experience.
Today, we will take a deep dive into the details to understand the true costs of each approach and also guide you to make an informed decision for your next house relocation. Endeavour.  
Tumblr media
DIY House Relocation in Melbourne           
The true factor of attraction of a DIY house relocation lies in its apparent cost-effectiveness. Renting a moving vehicle, buying packing utilities and availing the assistance of friends or family seems like a budget-friendly choice, especially if you are looking to save a few bucks during the move. However, the true cost of a DIY house removal goes beyond these initial expenses.
Financial Considerations of a DIY Move
Truck Rental and Fuel Costs: Renting a moving vehicle in Melbourne can cost a heft, depending on the size of the truck and the duration of the rental. Additionally, fuel costs can add up, especially if long distance and multiple to-and-fro trips are accounted for.       
Packing Materials: Boxes, bubble wrap, packing tape and other materials, although seemingly cheap, can make for a significant budget crunch. While it's possible to find free boxes from local stores or even borrow some from your friends or family, purchasing high-quality packing materials that can ensure the safety of your belongings during transit is actually costly.
Insurance: Without the assistance of professional removal companies in Melbourne, your property is at a higher risk of damage. While insurance can provide some protection, it adds an additional cost to your DIY move.
Tumblr media
Time and Labor: Packing, loading, travelling and unloading can be physically and mentally exhausting. Additionally, you would be required to take time off your work or to make possible the move, hence hurting business or professional prospects as well.   
Hidden Costs: Unexpected expenses, such as highway tolls, parking fees or equipment rental costs, can add up, further incrementing your DIY move costs.
Professional Removal Services: The Comprehensive Solution
Contrary to popular belief, hiring professional removal services in Melbourne can be more cost-effective and less stressful than attempting a DIY house relocation. Professional movers from Melbourne Cheap Removal offer a range of services tailored to your needs, ensuring a smooth and efficient relocation process.
Financial Benefits of Professional Removal Services
Fixed Costs: Professional removal services often provide fixed-price quotes based on the size of your move and the distance to your new home. This eliminates the risk of unexpected expenses and allows for better planning of expenses.
Efficiency: Professional movers have the skill and expertise required to pack and transport your belongings quickly and in a safe manner. Their efficiency can reduce the overall time and labour required for your relocation, potentially saving you money.
Tumblr media
Insurance Coverage:Melbourne Cheap Removals offer insurance coverage for building damage during relocation. You are however required to purchase extra insurance for the contents that are being moved.      
Equipment and Expertise: Professional movers come equipped with the necessary utilities to handle your move properly. This reduces the risk of damage to your belongings and minimises the need for additional purchases or rentals.
Convenience: Hiring professional removal services gives you all the time to focus on the additional aspects of your move, such as settling into your new home. This convenience can only be availed by hiring the right removalist near me.
Making The Right Choicefor An Efficient, Cost-Effectiveand Safe House Relocation        
When it comes to choosing between a DIY move and professional removal services in Melbourne, it's essential to consider both the costs and the benefits. A professional reliable removalist offers a comprehensive solution that ensures a smooth and stress-free move.
We wish you a speedy, safe and streamlined house relocation!

How to Choose the Right Financing Option for Your Truck Needs
Trucks are an essential part of any business that involves the transportation of goods. Whether you are starting a new business or looking to upgrade your existing fleet, the right financing option can make all the difference. When it comes to financing your truck needs, there are two primary options: semi-truck financing and commercial truck financing.
Tumblr media
Semi truck financing is a loan that is used to purchase a tractor-trailer. Commercial truck financing, on the other hand, is used to purchase any type of commercial truck. Both options come with their own set of benefits and drawbacks, and choosing the right financing option for your truck needs requires careful consideration.
To help you make an informed decision, we have put together a guide on how to choose the right financing option for your truck needs.
Understand Your Needs
The first step in choosing the right financing option is to understand your needs. You need to determine the type of truck you need, how much it will cost, and how much you can afford to pay each month. This will help you narrow down your options and find the best financing option for your needs.
If you are looking to purchase a tractor-trailer, semi-truck financing may be the best option for you. However, if you need a different type of commercial truck, commercial truck financing may be a better choice.
Research Your Options
Once you have a clear understanding of your needs, it’s time to research your options. You can start by searching online for financing options, such as All Business Trucks. This website offers a variety of financing options for commercial trucks, including semi-trucks, box trucks, dump trucks, and more.
When researching your options, be sure to look at the interest rates, terms, and conditions of each loan. You should also compare the fees associated with each loan, such as origination fees, prepayment penalties, and late fees.
Consider Your Credit Score
Your credit score plays a significant role in determining your financing options. If you have a good credit score, you may be eligible for lower interest rates and better loan terms. However, if you have a poor credit score, you may have limited financing options and may have to pay higher interest rates.
Before applying for a loan, check your credit score and take steps to improve it if necessary. This can include paying off any outstanding debts, making payments on time, and disputing any errors on your credit report.
Choose the Right Financing Option
Once you have researched your options and considered your credit score, it’s time to choose the right financing option for your needs. Here are some factors to consider when making your decision:
Interest Rates: The interest rate is one of the most important factors to consider when choosing a financing option. Lower interest rates can save you money over the life of the loan, while higher interest rates can cost you more.
Loan Terms: Loan terms refer to the length of time you have to pay back the loan. Longer loan terms can result in lower monthly payments, but you will end up paying more in interest over the life of the loan.
Fees: Be sure to consider any fees associated with the loan, such as origination fees, prepayment penalties, and late fees. These fees can add up and increase the overall cost of the loan.
Down Payment: Many financing options require a down payment, which is a percentage of the total cost of the truck. Be sure to consider how much you can afford to put down and how it will affect your monthly payments.
Monthly Payments: Your monthly payments will depend on the interest rate, loan terms, and down payment. Be sure to choose a financing option that fits within your budget.
Choose a Reputable Lender
Choosing a reputable lender is crucial when financing your truck needs. You want to choose a lender who is transparent about their loan terms, fees, and interest rates. Look for lenders who have a good reputation and positive reviews from other customers.
All Business Trucks is a reputable lender that offers financing options for commercial trucks. They have a user-friendly website that provides information on their loan options and interest rates. They also have a team of experienced professionals who can help you choose the right financing option for your needs.
When choosing a lender, be sure to read the terms and conditions carefully and ask any questions you may have. You want to make sure that you fully understand the loan terms and that you are comfortable with the lender before signing any agreements.
Consider Used Trucks
When choosing a truck, consider purchasing a used truck instead of a new one. Used trucks can be more affordable and can still provide the same level of quality and reliability as a new truck.
When financing a used truck, be sure to consider its age, mileage, and overall condition. You may need to make a larger down payment or pay a higher interest rate for a used truck, but it can still be a more affordable option than a new truck.
Final Thoughts
Choosing the right financing option for your truck needs requires careful consideration. You need to understand your needs, research your options, consider your credit score, choose the right financing option, choose a reputable lender, and consider used trucks.
All Business Trucks is a great option for financing your commercial truck needs. They offer a variety of financing options, including semi-truck financing and commercial truck financing, and have a team of experienced professionals to help you choose the right option for your needs.
By following these tips and working with a reputable lender, you can find the financing option that works best for your business and budget.

Book Review
Opium and Empire: The Lives and Careers of William Jardine and James Matheson
by Richard J. Grace
Imagine some people in a neighboring country, like Mexico for instance, decide that a certain drug, maybe crystal meth or fentanyl, has a potentially giant market in another country like the U.S.A. So they decide to start businesses that manufacture and traffic these drugs. Of course these narcotics are dangerous, wrecking people’s health and causing addiction as well as draining people of their money and landing them in prison; therefore the American government classifies these drugs as illegal, criminalizes their sales and distribution, and labels the businessmen as purveyors of organized crime, drug syndicates, and cartels. But from the Mexican traffickers’ point of view, they aren’t doing anything wrong. They provide work for poor people and make money in a country that isn’t rich. Furthermore, the drug sales provide a steady income whereas other business ventures tend to be less predictable and unstable. Farmers who want to grow produce, like avocados for example, grow some banned substances to keep their finances steady while the market for vegetables fluctuates. This benefits trucking companies too who smuggle drugs in boxes of cucumbers and cilantro across the border, providing work for truck drivers who need to pay rent and feed their families. Of course, a lot of Americans, especially the government and police, think this whole situation is rotten so they fight back hard. Now imagine the Mexican cartels decide to start a war with America to force them into legalizing their drugs so the gangsters south of the border can make even more money than they already do. Eventually they convince the US government to give them the entire city of San Diego so they can have a convenient base for the distribution of their goods. All praise be to Santa Muerte.
This is roughly what happened when the Jardine-Matheson trading company began selling opium on the black market in China at about the same time the Napoleonic Wars began. Richard J. Grace, in his Opium and Empire, tells the story of this nefarious corporation and concludes that they weren’t such bad people and were, in fact, just ordinary businessmen who just happened to do trade in a vice that ruined people’s lives.
You could just as well argue that good things Mexican drug cartels do outweigh the bad. It isn’t fair that dangerous narcotics are illegal in El Norteno and they are really just ordinary gentlemen who provide a service that is in demand anyways. They work hard to earn their money and there’s nothing a red-blooded American capitalist loves more than people who get rich by working hard. Hell, you might even say that the cartels are nothing more than heroes of free market capitalism, letting the invisible hand of the marketplace decide what people buy and sell. Right?
Right?
The story of William Jardine and James Matheson begins in Scotland more innocently than one might expect. Jardine came from a poor farming family and got employed as a surgeon for the East India Company, Great Britain’s colonial trading and shipping monopoly. The younger Matheson came from an upper class family in Edinburgh and eventually went on to work for the East India Company too. He met up with Jardine in India, the two paired up, and went to work as speculators, trading in silk, rice, tea, and, most importantly, opium which they purchased in India and shipped to China.
The kingdom of China at that time was closed to foreigners. They would not allow outsiders to enter their lands for business so they sectioned off a strip of the river bank running along the outskirts of Canton, or what is now known as Guangdong. There they were allowed to build a tiny village of warehouses, factories, and living quarters. Chinese merchants came to the riverfront to do business, buying and selling all commodities except opium which was illegal in China. But Jardine-Matheson insisted on peddling opium since the addiction it caused guaranteed a steady flow of wealth which helped to supplement their more volatile trading goods whose prices fluctuated unpredictably. The Jardine-Matheson company therefore sold opium offshore in international waters to smugglers who brought it onto the mainland. If Jardine-Matheson couldn’t sell opium the legal way, they had no qualms about breaking Chinese laws to make their fortune.
A large portion of this book describes the backgrounds of these two businessmen and the running on their company. It also details how they grew to such prominence as the East India Comany monopoly ended, making room for other companies to enter the competitive colonial markets. Most of this is ordinary business history explaining the methods and functions of Jardine-Matheson. If that is within the scope of your interest, it might be exciting, but actually the writing is often dry and boring. The several passages about finance and banking are especially dull. There is nothing more boring then people talking about money, especially when it gets a bit technical. It is even worse than watching golf on TV.
The story gets more exciting in the run-up to the Opium Wars. After the Chinese government seized and destroyed the entire inventory of opium, Jardine and Matheson pressured the British government to invade China in retaliation and to demand compensation for the lost products. The second Opium War happened when the British colonial government decided to force China to legalize opium for the benefit of British businesses and the extension of British colonial power. Talk about a sense of entitlement. And yes, large numbers of people died over this. Along the way, China gave the mostly uninhabited island of Kowloon, Hong Kong to the British for the sake of allowing them to have a base for business-dealings in the region. So selling illegal drugs on the black market in China was the primary source of finance for building up the British Empire. Maybe in the future, Latin American drug cartels will rule the world.
The end of the book has a long chapter about the lives of Jardine and Matheson after retirement. It isn’t especially interesting. Then, in the epilogue, the author evaluates the Jardine-Matheson company from a moral and historical standpoint. He acknowledges that selling illegal drugs on the black market and starting two wars with China was kind of a crappy thing to do, but he lets them off with a slap on the hand, figuratively speaking, because they were really just a couple of ordinary businessmen who did a lot of good things for their communities back in the British Isles. More importantly, they belonged to some prominent social clubs back home and were considered respectable men by other members of the upper class. Richard Grace goes so far as to say that they were historically important, as if that could even be denied, and their amorality was of little consequence because they were pioneers of free market capitalism. Well, that is actually a weak argument for those of us who are not especially enthusiastic about capitalism to begin with.
And about those Mexican cartels...well they may be harming and endangering a lot of lives, but they are putting people to work and financially enriching their local communities, so it isn’t all that bad, is it? Besides those guys are fun to hang out with wow do they ever throw some fantastic parties and that’s really what’s important. Who cares about all those clucks who buy their drugs on the streets. It’s their own fault they’re losers because they didn’t choose to get a job and work like the rest of us. Right? Yeah right.
I don’t know anything about the author Richard J. Grace, but I can say for sure that we don’t see eye to eye when it comes to values. Opium and Empire tells the story of the Jardine-Matheson company, saying what it needs to say to accomplish that. It is a boring book, however, written by an author with questionable morals. He claims that Jardine and Matheson were not merelya couple of sleazy drug dealers. But just because they hid behind a facade of respectability and a Protestant work ethic, doesn’t mean they weren’t a couple of slimeballs at heart. I don’t think Grace is necessarily immoral, but I get the impression his ethics are in the wrong order. This book does serve a historical purpose, but there has to be an account of this company that is more engaging and a little more balanced. The Chinese perspective on this history is barely even mentioned.
If you visit Hong Kong now, you will find a skyscraper in the center of Kowloon with a unique architectural feature. It is a slender rectangle with its cladding entirely permeated with round windows like portholes. This is the Jardine House, world headquarters of the Jardine-Matheson company which still exists to this day. Because of its unique appearance, the local citizens of Hong Kong have nicknamed it the House of 1000 Assholes. Sometimes I wonder if the people of Hong Kong think back over the times when Chinese peasants became emaciated from lounging in opium dens while their families starved to death because all their income went to feeding their addictions. Maybe that name doesn’t actually indicate how they feel about the Jardine House’s appearance but actually signifies how they feel about all the company’s employees that got rich and powerful by enslaving Chinese people to narcotics. Richard Matheson justified the opium trade by saying he had never seen a Chinaman “beastialized” by opium use. I’m not sure what he meant by “beastialized”, but one thing is certain: while he was running his smuggling business and throwing dinner parties in his mansion, he wasn’t spending time in the opium dens of China, observing how his drug was ruining people’s lives. Just an ordinary businessman? No I don’t think so, but then again take a look at the businessmen of the 21st century. I’m not sure they any better.

The Hidden Costs of Moving: How to Avoid Overpaying
Moving to a new home organizer houston is an exciting adventure, but it can also be a costly one. Beyond the obvious expenses like hiring a moving company or renting a truck, there are several hidden costs associated with moving that can catch you by surprise if you're not prepared. In this article, we'll explore these hidden costs and provide tips on how to avoid overpaying during your move.
Packing Supplies
Packing your belongings requires boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap, and other supplies. While it may seem like a minor expense, these costs can add up, especially if you have a large household. To avoid overpaying, try to source free or low-cost packing materials. You can often find boxes at local stores or ask friends and family for extras they may have from their own moves.
Movers' Fees
Hiring professional organizers near me is a common choice for a stress-free move, but their fees can be more than you initially expect. The cost may depend on factors like the distance, the size of your home, and the number of movers required. To avoid overpaying, obtain quotes from multiple moving companies and be sure to ask about any hidden fees, such as additional charges for heavy items or stairs.
Utility Transfer Fees
Transferring or setting up utilities at your new residence can come with fees. These might include installation charges, activation fees, or security deposits. Check with your utility providers to understand all the potential costs associated with the transfer and consider any opportunities to negotiate or waive these fees.
Cleaning and Repairs
If you're leaving a rental property, you may be responsible for cleaning or making repairs to get your security deposit back. These costs can vary widely, so be sure to budget for any necessary cleaning supplies or repair services well in advance.
Temporary Storage
In some cases, you may need to store your belongings temporarily. Whether it's because of a gap between your move-out and move-in dates or downsizing, renting a storage unit can be an added cost. Research storage facilities in advance and compare prices to ensure you're not overpaying.
Pet and Childcare
On moving day, having pets or young children around can be stressful and potentially dangerous. You might need to arrange for pet boarding, a babysitter, or daycare, which can add to your expenses. Plan for these costs and make necessary arrangements to ensure a smoother moving experience.
Time Off Work
Taking time off work to facilitate your move can result in a loss of income. Additionally, you may need to budget for expenses related to commuting or accommodations during the move. Ensure you account for these financial aspects when planning your move.
Unforeseen Costs
There can always be unexpected expenses that arise during a move. These might include vehicle breakdowns, extra meals out, or even lost or damaged items that need replacing. Having an emergency fund or budget buffer can help you navigate these unforeseen costs without straining your finances.
Tips for Avoiding Overpayment
Plan Ahead: Create a detailed budget that includes all potential moving costs, and build in a contingency fund for unexpected expenses.
Get Multiple Quotes: When hiring movers or service providers, obtain multiple quotes and compare them to ensure you're getting the best deal.
Minimize Belongings: Before you move, declutter and downsize your possessions. The fewer items you have to move, the lower the overall cost.
DIY Options: If possible, consider a do-it-yourself move with the help of friends and family. This can significantly reduce the cost of professional movers.
Review Contracts: Carefully review all contracts, including those for moving services, to understand potential hidden fees. Ask questions about any terms you don't fully comprehend.
Conclusion
Moving doesn't have to break the bank. By being aware of the hidden costs associated with moving and taking proactive steps to manage them, you can avoid overpaying and make your move a smoother and more financially manageable experience. Careful planning, research, and budgeting are key to keeping your moving expenses in check and ensuring a successful transition to your new home.
