    This is dope content. Hopefully I am on the road soon flatbedding or hauling dry van freight. Having a pending felony on your record sucks.

    Average month after first year should be 12 to 13k miles as a rookie 7k isnt terrible keep it up flatbed is the only way to go

    Next time you’re in Natalia Texas try this place out. Tacos Estilo Jalisco if you like real Mexican food.

    Nice vid bro👍How many weeks do you usually stay out driving?

    • @ianelbert
      @ianelbert  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I took one week off when I started in May, and I’ve been out ever since. I’m taking another week off this month, so about 4 months out this time around.

    Nice video brother. Can’t wait to start on Monday, my worry is that I’m not that tall 😁 will that be an issue with flatbed?

      Also how heavy are the tarps?

    • @ianelbert
      @ianelbert  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You’ll probably be just fine. I met a female flatbedder who couldn’t have been more than 120lbs and she’s been doing it for a couple years

    • @ianelbert

      And she wasn’t tall either, probably around 5’5
