God bless bro!
I'm a huge fun of your channel here in Wichita ks...also from 254. Trying to get in the box truck business.
Thanks, I appreciate.
Your rear axle sets forward & you have a longer rear overhang. Maybe because of the lift gate?🤔 But those roll down landing gear that a lotta expediting trucks have are good to have!👍🏾 Don't know if you can add something like that without being too pricey or adding too much weight on your rear drive axle yanno🤔 I just ran across your video & got'chu locked in. Stay safe ✌🏿
If you can pallet jack the load to the lip of the truck then thats always better. Sometimes weight doesn't allow this and you just have to let the forklift on. Get the airbag looked at/changed out.
I suspected you are a Kenyan the moment i watched your first video just now...the famous Kenyan wrist bracelet at 4.47min...hongera kaka...
👍
Rates even good with straight-trucks?
How do you keep your devices connected with wifi? Do you use a portable hotspot device or run off your phone hotspot?
No, I have a cellular iPad
@@Milesinabox Ahh okay and you are able to run all your devices off of the iPad? I got the Garmin OTR 500 but was wondering how to run everything without draining my phone.
Bought a hotspot but wasn’t sure if the data would be enough thank you for the help I can return the hotspot and go the iPad route.
@@michellebrown7595 yes I am able to run my devices on it while having my phone as a backup.
@@Milesinabox Awesome, thank you so much Miles I’m all set up with my 26ft to go OTR but this was one of my main concerns 🙏🏾🙏🏾 Love your channel thank you again 😊
@@Milesinabox I know in one of your videos you mentioned how you keep the iPad secure but can you remind me on what stand you use?
How are loads coming out of Iowa? Going to MN area?
It’s a hit or miss per week but they are there
How do you get loads
You gotta get a dispatcher/broker at your local city that works locally or nation wide but most important that pays you better mileage rates
Do U Need A CDL
No not on 26 feet or less anything more yes from what I was told
Under 26k ??
Yes you do need a CDL no matter what
That off centre steering wheel would really annoy me!!
Its manageable for now!
I bet you wasting a lot of diesel fuel because is out of alignment 😅
Most of the big trucks are like that... I don't understand why
Nice video where you from
Iowa
@@Milesinabox you got that accent
That accent is from Kenya
Oh ok ok I'm looking out to get into the box truck business also
@caribbeanvibez758 do it.
I’ve heard it’s best to not let the forklifts go deep into the box but i assume it’s driver preference
Definitely. I didn’t like it at all but you got to make money somehow.
Hi!
I developed software to help owner-operators and carriers manage their expenses and keep track of fleet finances effortlessly. I think it’s something you might find helpful! Would love to discuss how we could work together.
