Ain’t gonna lie TOP 5 interview from this channel!!! 🔥🔥🔥 💎 🔥🔥🔥
I would agree.
Trucking is so volatile. Takes a strong person to run a company by yourself. Salute to you
Great interview, former ball player myself . Amazing how you allowed God to lead and guide your journey. Definitely motivation
31:35 the niche
Exactly what I was looking for!!! Thank you
Not all heroes wear capes, thanks good brother
Thanks
Second video of the year the last 6 months of 2022 all I did was ride and listened to every interviews and I linked with some great ppl..after I close on my new home tomorrow I’m getting my business off the ground 💪🏾💪🏾
Great Interview and much success to Tonka Trucking. Keep acknowledging God first and everything else will flow. 🎯💯💪🏽
The smarts come from our family. Proud of my lil cousin and all his accomplishments. We breed athletes also
I’m from the h also, and a class a driver now. When I was about 18 I use to unload those rail cars with the pipes he’s talking about out in the ports. I was always interested in the driver side of things but wasn’t mature enough to vision something like this then. About to be 30 in a few months I wish I would’ve thought about it then. Keep hustlin’ driver . 💯
Another great interview
Thank you for continuing to drop us awesome content…keep them coming!!!!!!
Another great video! Keep em coming!
Damn made it to the end and buddy spoke str8 to me. Thanks for this interview fellas. Pure inspiration. 👊🏾💯

Big Tony H!!! Love to see it
Man I’m days away from canceling my insurance haven’t been able to get a Contract running local in central Florida feels like all the shippers are brokered up and running. Been at it for 1.2 years running flatbed. But more power to you guys keep trucking brothers.
Stay strong fam
why dont you just get loads from a load board?
or lease onto someone with consistent loads
@NK I’ll look harder a lot of cheap freight in my area
That's a ruff market. I pickup a local route out of state, it was hard for me to find something similar in south florida
Awesome love this
Wonderful interview 💪🏿
