Okay, now that I've made comments to others posts, I can start my story. I'll keep it short. I'm 26 years old, married with a child on the way. I'm a police officer. Not a street beat walking police officer, more of a regulatory officer. VERY flexible schedule, easy hours, kind of the job you've dreamed about really. I have for my entire life had entrepeneur blood in me. I've always wanted to do something on my own for a long time. It doesnt have to be so big it harvests money with a combine (that would be nice) just something that eliminates that paycheck to paycheck life. I have combed over many business opportunities and about six months ago, I was sitting in my cruiser and I saw a limo go by where I was, and thought, "you know, theres really not one of those things around here." And it has went from there. I haven't made a lot of progress with the business, I've had some home hurdles to jump and I've done TONS of research and planning, and a lot of Q and A with people in this area about a Limo Service. I'm at the stage where all I need to do is turn in some paperwork go to the bank get the money and I'm on the road. Unfortunately, I'm not buying a limo I can't see in person and they don't grow on trees here. So I'm taking this slow. I imagine I will miss prom season, but that's not a huge problem for me. Basically, my thirst for this is based on the fact that I've been an ambulance driver for six years, a DMV tester for three years, and I've been driving police cars and fire trucks for going on 10 years now, I guess I'm supposed to drive for a living.

And now its time to stop saying I'm going to do something and do it. So if anyone knows where a limo is that is decent and within a day of KY, let me know. I'm looking!

Good post there. I think I saw you post some stuff on Limos.com, I tend not to comment much there. If you have any questions feel free to ask I've been in for a little while and I can generally help. My first bit of advice is Buy a 1998 and up lincoln white or black, SUV's limit your market to 10% of your customers. You set your self up for failure with an SUV unless you have a couple 100K in the bank! Let me know if you have questions. JaredScott06@comcast.net
