Alex, please don’t feel that you need to apologize or even explain yourself to anyone. The internet is full of haters but don’t let them get to you. I’m thoroughly enjoying your channel so keep doing what you’re doing because you have a lot of fans out here. Stay safe out there my friend. 😁
Moral of the story he should have stay with them and paid them however he could have seen if they would have made it 75,000 🎉🎉🎉
What is your cost per mile for expenses
I’m nowhere near the donut connoisseur that you are so I’m having a hard time with bacon on a donut. I love bacon with eggs, but on a donut?? That’s definitely a new concept for me. I’m going to reserve judgement until I’ve tried one, lol. Please be safe out there. 😁
I wish my repairs were inexpensive. I’m at home waiting for a new axle assembly to be built and shipped. Pinion gear went bad so I’m taking advantage and changing from a 4:10 gear ratio to a 4:56. That is going to help pulling these heavy loads through the mountains and also on the take off. I also will have to replace the transmission soon as I’m getting some slip in reverse and 1st gears.
Nice job
I change my CCV filter every 3rd oil change on my ‘19 3500. Far less expensive than having to replace a leaking front/rear crankshaft seal due to excessive crankcase pressure.
U should by pass the ccv Alex it's just soot that it throws back into the crankcase and into the engine!! It's a stupid rule the epa made!! If u by pass it u don't get it going into the engine. They make kits and your motor will last a hell of a lot longer bypassing it!!
those CCV's are made to catch any oil/pressure to reduce any crank case pressure. good maintenance item to replace, but honestly, deleting it and running a catch can is the better way to go. if you ever wanted to. I know you're more of an oem type of guy which is always perfectly fine.
How do you know the total hauling capacity for hotshot. For trucks it’s pretty straight forward. I am planning on getting a Ram3500 dually. With a 40 ft trailer. I am a CDL A license holder. Please if anyone can explain with numbers.
💯💯💯
Really enjoyed the video Alex. Securement is always what I'm looking at to learn more ways to secure. CCV filters on our 4th and 5th gens get changed every 20k-30k. I changed them one time at 60k and same thing they were covered in oil. 5 min job so why not change more often is how I see it. Same thing on OEM air filter on the 5th gen. Ran Fram one time and it threw a code. Went back to OEM, gone and never been an issue since. Awesome video of the drive shaft replacement too👍💪
That filter is your crank case vent filter. It filters the oil vapor coming from the crankcase before it gets pushed back through the intake. Those filters are oily within 1000 miles it don’t hurt anything. You could even delete it and vent the crankcase to the atmosphere (which is something you do on deleted trucks)
I put an easy install catch can.
Hey Alex!! Nice tarping Bro! You're setting a Great Example for us Hottshoters!! Thank You!! Ken!! Oh!! 👍🏾✌🏿
I'm so glad to see you finally working... For a minute there, I thought you were an influencer for show cars and donuts.😂😅😂😂
He has two channels
Dude u had feel like a bad a having freaking fighter jet missile launcher or bomb compartment behind u lol
outstanding video, truck looks almost new underneath no rust, you must clean a lot in the winter
that fit perfectly, you have exactly 40ft deck space, right?
Sweet deal, enjoying this great weather before we have to use our heater at night, lol....
Great video. Stay safe out there.
we appreciate watch how you do the loads on the trailer and you show exactly wht you are doing and explain why
Great Video But Now You Don't Tell How The Loads Pay😅
You notice after 2008 equip designed to cost more in parts limited warrenty 😂
The parts for all equipt is design to fail they dont make much of the sale they make it up in service all a scam
Hey there I’m also about to start my very own CDL hotshotting , is there anything you would recommend I do … I’m 22 and I’m legit completing my cdl this month ?
Another great video, I really enjoy your easygoing nature and calm demeanor which is rare in what can be a high stress job at times. Safe travels. 😁
Picking up miltary grade stuff is always fun! GREAT VID! 😊 Smart changing that air crank filter more often! Your not afraid to tackle your own repair projects! Thats a huge savings!
Some great ideas that I will incorporate into my next oil change. I appreciate the help.
What bar is that you have to run chain through all the rolls
What length trailer do you have?
What year is your truck. Wish I can work with you and become great friends until I ready to branch off
Hey Alex!! You have to drive right by exit 131 there in Fort Pierce, Florida when you're headed home or back out....My friend Jennifer who owns 4- tractor-trailer rigs and has just opened a truck & trailer wash located there at 713 Angle rd. Just thought I'd pass it along...
You content it’s awesome you make it look like it’s super easy but I always get a hard time with the fuel filters But in the end I got it, only this time my truck doesn't want to start and I'm really frustrated, if I tighten the filters too much like you did in the video it never wants to start, I always have to loosen them and play with the pressure when tightening them, but this time I've tried too many times and I can't do it, has something similar ever happened to you?
Do you sleep in hotels or the truck?
My friend what tipe truck si the best for star on the business year and model
Would you mind sharing or recommending a dispatching service for someone who's just starting out hotshot driving? Thank you in advance
I’m sure while you were traveling through the snowy mountains in Colorado it made you long for sunny Miami. I know I’d be dreaming of the sunshine and palm trees if that was me. 😎🌴 Stay safe out there. 😁
Do you have a 4.10 or 3.73 gear ratio?
Do you have the measurements for the frame?
Awesome
Hi Alex, I’m Steve from Florida. I just recently discovered your channel and I’m instantly hooked. I’ve done flatbed work hauling telecom reels with fiber and copper wire. Everything was secured with chains and binders, never straps. But I have to say, as an OCD sufferer, those twists in the straps really bother me. How much difference does it make as opposed to not twisting them?? Thanks
@@SteveSanders-SPB-FL Welcome to the channel Steve. The reason for the twists in the straps is so they don’t vibrate from the wind. Vibration can loosen them. Strength wise I haven’t had any issues vs having them straight. You’ll see a lot of truck drivers twisting the straps. Especially on tall loads.
Thanks Alex. 😁
Hey Alex, really enjoy all the videos! As someone who's looking into Hotshot, curious how tall you are as related to sleeping comfortably in the backseat of your truck. Also, any reason why you didn't look at the MegaCab Ram vs. the Crew? Seems like the MegaCab would provide a built-in sleeping platform and a little more room. Appreciate any insight you could provide! S.
@@SaintSabastian7 Hey, thank you for the support. I’m 5,6. I didn’t want mega cab because you lose space in the bed of the truck. Inside the cab would be better for sure but I prefer the longer bed. I needed space for an external fuel tank. With a maga cab it would all be crammed in the bed.
💯💯💯
Another great video from the securement king😊
@@Happ1971 Thank you!!! 🤣🤣🤣
You weren't worried about an oversized ticket? For the wide load?
@@Happ1971 I had my flags and signs on 🤷♂️
Best donuts ever
@@moduqueRN They are some of the better ones for sure.
VA is not toooo bad I live here 😂
@@juancarlostrejo6323 VA is not bad but WV is not that great for trucks.
Weatherford Tx? Damn you were like 5 mins from me lol
@@TexasGTO That’s really close 😁

@@nickgates7869 I wish. lol. I just like how the clothes fit.
Hey Alex, thanks for the videos man. I live in Miami and I'm thinking about starting in a non CDL hot shot trucking but have zero experience in this industry. What do you think it should be my first step into it, bro?Buy a truck, rent a trailer, and find a dispatcher? Or work for somebody first ? Thanks again good luck and safe travels
@@bjj685 Of you can work for someone, do that and get the feel for it. See if it’s something you want to really get into because it’s not cheap and you definitely don’t want to invest in a truck and trailer if you end up not liking this job.
@Mr.AlexKogan thank you very much for your response, bro, appreciate it I am willing to work for free and even pay for a few days of ride along just to learn a bit more about this job before I make the next move so let me know if you need an extra working hand man. I'll be happy to put up some work for you.
