A tthe Hampton Inn in Catoosa, waiting to get my truck (Melton). Got off my trainer's truck Wednesday. I'm from L.A. I recognize the 710, man 5:00 pm = a nightmare. Thanks for posting, your videos are one of many that influenced my decision to choose Melton.
@@TheEducatedTrucker-wv9hp congratulations on completing driver training because we all know how hard that can be. That’s exciting news getting your own truck is the best day. Ya the 710 was awful 😆. That last sentence means a lot, thanks for watching 🙌
For that bad ratchet, take a bungee hook it on to the hole and pull it towards the rear of the trailer. Hook it under the underside of the trailer. I have a trailer with that same issue that fixes the problem temporarily. Therefore, you can at least use the ratchet meantime.😅😅
I am in CDL school now, just got my TWIC and studying for the hazmat as well and definitely looking at Melton. What states do you find yourself running in the most?
You're doing the right thing getting all your endorsements, and keep the receipts because after working with melton for 3 months they reimburse you for it! Im west coast fleet so pretty much everything west of Oklahoma but sometimes I go east coast but its rare now. I did OTR but west coast fleet is where its at for me.
@@travblac2277 since it’s the winter and it’s slowing down I’m averaging 1100 right now but in the summer I was doing better making around 1500 a week after you averaged it out. I also have all my endorsements which helps. Hope that helps.
It was really cool meeting you at the Tulsa terminal tonight get some rest and keep making videos!
@@JuniorsbigWorld yooo likewise brotha, I’ll see you out there again and thanks for watching 🙏🏾

That’s awesome, good luck and can’t wait to see you on the road!

The OTR life wasn’t for me, if anyone is interested in making great money and staying local try and get a concrete mixer job
Bro with melton how much do you bring in weekly? I’m interested in driving for them I’m just concerned about the pay

What mic and camera do you use?
@@PrimePerspectivee dji pocket 3 with the mic that comes with it 👍
How the weekly checks looking like? If you don’t mind, obviously. An average gross would be nice to hear!
@@Hasib7 for me personally once everything is balanced out I’m making over 1250 a week. That’s the average but I’m making a bit more than that now
@@Hasib7 I also have my TWIC, Passport, and hazmat endorsements and it helps get more loads.
Thanks for the reply, very insightful. I don’t have any of those 😂
@@Hasib7 they are totally worth it and melton will pay you back after 3 Months
@@michaelthomas7408is that gross or net?
