One late because of weather ain’t really a late in this industry. Carriers and customers peach safety so taking your time during bad weather is a win vs it not showing up because it’s in a ditch
Bro it’s been a while since I used one. Last time there was a huge spider so i said no more portopottys but look at me now. Out here on this road taking one for the team. Lol
When nature calls!!! Good bit of filming/editing... Nice you find the humor in everyday life! I'm a time person.... IF I GIVE YOU A TIME ESTIMATE --- you can cash it at the bank. My employees used to think this was hilarious.... I'd have the timing down to within 2 to 4 minutes.
I try to always be early or on time. For me it shows respect for others time. And hopefully you get that respect back ya know? And yeah I def try to add in my humor when I can. It’s nessesary out here. Thanks for watching Paul!
Happy holidays, new sub here! My bf and I have been watching your videos since our car accident 4. Months ago), it’s helped us pass time age we’re learning a lot, this is something we’ve been wanting to do and travel, so to kill birds with one stone and you came to my city…..CINCY BAAAABBBYYYY!!!! We enjoy your videos, stay safe out there on the roads and the different weather conditions. Peace and blessings
This made my day! Thank you! Sorry to hear about your car accident… that’s a major bummer. Hope you’re both well! Appreciate you subscribing and reaching out! Peace and blessings to you as well!!!!!
Yeah. Too much taken out driving someone's else's van...2000 miles to get only $400 💀 but it's good to gain experience and get in the game until you can get your own van
@@dwezzy2519 it all depends man every company is different as well as every dispatcher. Everyone has a different experience with the same companies. Most people bounce around until they find a carrier that fits them good luck.
I wish that was how the game was but The van owner would make no money if they paid gas. Their margins are actually thin when you consider van payment (1,000) van insurance ($1200) load boards ($1000) plus repairs regular maintenance etc they pay for. The money for a fleet owner is in multiple vans.
@@ericyuan9718 yes total pay. I wish it was minus gas. Some fleet owners do 50/50 split and pay half of gas. But it all comes out to about the same since gas is about 10%-14% of expense
It's the same , we deduct the gas and split 50/50 and I see your number ,they more or less same as mine , sometimes it's like $20-30 different one way or other ,but mostly the same
@@rajonc99 yessir industry standard starts around 60/40. At the end of the day yes we are 1099 but we still making employee money. Imma switch it up here in a couple weeks :)
@@ExpeditingAmerica ok thx. I’m still amazed by why some cargo vans expediters don’t have decals on the vans. I’ve done research and still can’t find any officials rules on it. Have a good one
Broker is suppose to go thru your dispatch and not bother the driver. If they calling driver and you have an accident while on their load. Then broker can also be brought into lawsuit. FACT
It was not a great rate but it got me out of Cali and the total for the week was good. Definitely not my best haul but i show the good bad and ugly for those who think it’s a get rich quick thing.
@@ExpeditingAmerica I have mad respect for you dude, most people would not have the drive to do what you're doing, they're not looking at or can't see the bigger picture, your end goal is to be your own boss, keep at man, you're an inspiration to many, don't mine the naysayers.. including myself...
@@romanthompson7558 appreciate it man. Thank you for your words! The way I see it I’m an entry level position payin my dues proving myself and working my way up. The company I work for uses load boards which is like the bottom of the barrel. But I know people pulling 6 figures personally I’ve met over the year or so. I know what’s possible and this isn’t going to be my only stream of revenue it’s just a stepping stone and a journey God has put me on. Not everyone is going to get it but not everyone understood Elon or bill gates or anyone who had their own vision. Thanks again and happy new year!!!
This isn’t a good run. That’s why I say that in the video. I took a hit but it was California and I got out. So it’s kinda the trade off. I don’t show rates to stunt I show the good the bad the ugly. This week I made $1600 after expenses. I coulda sat around and waited for a better rate “maybe” but I don’t turn down much (within reason)
The load itself didn’t pay $1.00pm. I wish you well Bro, but you’re better than that $.23pm mile take home pay. Getting a new van just like you are driving, plus bidding your own loads is way better than that. You are a hard worker. Time to take that leap and do your own thing. Get your own authority and market yourself from home for local customers. You call all the shots AND make all the duckets. Safe Travels!!!
Hey Brandon, Love the content. I’m about 3 weeks into my expediting career. What has your rate per mile been in 2024? Thanks in advance!! Give Bubba Joe a chin scratch!!
A) this was a low rate trip which I think I mention. I was getting out of California and took a hit. But finished off the week with a trip that put my profit for the week at $1400 after expenses on a slow week. B) I’m entry level learning the business and how to book loads for more money and have van ownership and ability to work for myself and grow a business. C) I’m also building a TH-cam channel that at the rate it’s growing will supplement my income on top of other ways I will make money like merch and my music. D) it’s a journey I’m 35 with no kids. It’s been a blast and a wild ride no pun intended. E) I show the reality of the business. Everyone thinks you just hop in a van and get rich quick. I could easily front and say I made a million dollars blah blah blah but I don’t. I keep it real the good the bad the ugly. I’m shooting for the bigger picture pretty much. That’s why I’m “wasting my time” 🤓
Thing is while most people are sleeping not making anything he is busting his ass. So yes 48 hours of actual work at a job with people and bullshit would not be worth it. But this kid makes his money off volume and like he said he is pretty much a newbie and will be an owner operator and his own boss within a couple years. I know because that’s how i started out but the market was better I will say. Now I have a logistics company. If I quit when I had bad loads I wouldn’t be here today. So take it easy on the kid!
@@toddhorowitz3461 right a 40 hour work week for someone is a whole week. I do 40 hrs in 2 days. And @richard maybe that’s what my channel is for. To educate others who want to get in right now not to.
@@ExpeditingAmerica Let me give you some advise. Look into becoming a painter or a carpenter, the pay is about $50/hr and you can work alone. Painting costs about $500 for tools and you can start out of your car. You can even bring your dog along on most jobs and be home every night. If you become a carpenter specialize in something like decks, you can price the jobs at $100 an hour. Set a goal to buy an old small house and go from there. Make sure you buy the house. In 15 years there's a good chance you will be a millionaire, as many carpenters and painters are.
You driving 2000 miles n make 467 $. It’s just don’t make sense bro … my thought was why won’t you do 50\50 % to owner (that means you don’t have to worry about paying gas) that mean you make 990$ profit ?????? So what r we looking at ???
I can’t make it make sense for you. I can already see you’re looking at one video and looking at the short term. I think that week I met $1400 it made sense to me because I got my foot into an industry with great honest people that told me to “work hard, save my money, and buy my own van so I can work for myself” People expect to get an opportunity to drive someone’s van and get rich. At the end of the day I’m still an employee and I worked two days to make $400+. I also built a TH-cam channel that pays me as well and music on top of that. Was I getting rich? No but I was working my way to where I am now. Which I would never be here if I complained about what I made and gave up like most people would.
Depends on what you mean by worth it. I got in a entry level position driving a van for a small company that was fair and always encouraged me to save my money learn the business and buy my own van and become my own boss. Sure if you’re looking for something with instant gratification this is not the business for you. But if you’re willing to pay some dues, put in the work, you can make way more then I made as a driver hauling loads off load boards. Many nights I looked at the time I put in on long hauls and how little I made and said to myself this ain’t worth it. I look back at it now and I’m so grateful for the opportunity and journey. I am a better person in a better space in life because of this. On top of that I work for myself now and can book multiple loads and do side work back home now if I want down time. I appreciate your honesty though. It’s definitely not for everyone
@@BloodMoney-bu6bw sure if your looking at the small picture and for instant gratification yes. If I did that trip now i would make about $1500 net for two days of driving. You must have not read what I wrote lol I’m glad I did this because I learned the business and got paid to do it. On top of that built relationships with shippers, built a monetized TH-cam channel, and I will never make that little money for my time ever again in life.
@@ExpeditingAmerica I hear U but it’s not just your numbers.. everyone who post about this have similar outcomes.. I was seriously about to jump into this arena but after seeing all this I’m definitely second guessing it!
@@BloodMoney-bu6bw that’s good tho. I honestly don’t try to glamorize the industry because it’s not for everyone. Some people click bait and tell a false story or make it seem like it’s just making money and that’s all there is to it. So I love it when someone tells me they are second guessing it. I kinda cringe when people say you inspired me to get a van or just want to jump right in to it. It’s definitely not for everyone. I appreciate your input and the conversation bro
I don't like this video. Your losses are colosal, specifically the cost of gas. You could have done probably better if owner percentage was for you. Still, fuel cost is murderous.....almost .half of the revenue was washed away in paying for fuel.
It’s the reality of the business. Not every job is a home run. Sure I could only show the good but I show the bad and ugly too. This week I still made $1600 net… so I didn’t mind taking a hit, making money and finishing my week stronger than if I say that day
@@ExpeditingAmerica you made 1600 gross not Net. Uncle Sam wants his money too. You maybe 1099, but you will pay taxes regardless. Tax credits is not cash back.
If renting a van turned profit you would see many TH-cam videos on people doing it. Doing 3000-5000 miles cross country every week there is no renting service that doesn’t charge per mile. Also fluid doesn’t have a sprinter van if this size with strap downs etc. Also if you watch my new episodes I now have my own van :)
@@ExpeditingAmerica yes it does chrck my channel I have a sprinter Van I do all loads with OTR and Local and it’s 0.39 a mile after 500 free miles a week it’s way better then 35% straight up to the driver and $820 on gas you need a gas card bro and rental that won’t eat away at your profits I’m not arguing with you I’m giving you insight
.39 cents a mile??? Loads go for $1 a mile then dispatch takes .14 so that’s .86 then now you wanna minus .39 and bring it down to .47 a mile before gas???? That’s if you’re getting $1 a mile consistently. Keep in mind how many miles I do a week. That is not at all feesable compared to my set up now.
@@ExpeditingAmerica I don’t pay dispatch anything I dispatch for myself bro and it’s 100 miles free a day you can’t beat that and .39 cents after that maintenance free new truck whenever I want you can’t beat that wherever you bought or renting from right now . Try me.
Glad I got off @ 5. Hope you had a merry Christmas

Cargo van driver, non cdl driver, otr van driver, sprinter van driver

820 in gas 😅 dude your mpg is around 13mpg??
Did you see how heavy that load was? Not to mention most the speed limit was 75-80 so I was rippin and running. Normally 18-20 mpg in that van

If renting a van turned profit you would see many TH-cam videos on people doing it. Doing 3000-5000 miles cross country every week there is no renting service that doesn’t charge per mile. Also fluid doesn’t have a sprinter van if this size with strap downs etc.
Also if you watch my new episodes I now have my own van :)
@@ExpeditingAmerica yes it does chrck my channel I have a sprinter Van I do all loads with OTR and Local and it’s 0.39 a mile after 500 free miles a week it’s way better then 35% straight up to the driver and $820 on gas you need a gas card bro and rental that won’t eat away at your profits I’m not arguing with you I’m giving you insight
.39 cents a mile??? Loads go for $1 a mile then dispatch takes .14 so that’s .86 then now you wanna minus .39 and bring it down to .47 a mile before gas???? That’s if you’re getting $1 a mile consistently. Keep in mind how many miles I do a week. That is not at all feesable compared to my set up now.
@@ExpeditingAmerica I don’t pay dispatch anything I dispatch for myself bro and it’s 100 miles free a day you can’t beat that and .39 cents after that maintenance free new truck whenever I want you can’t beat that wherever you bought or renting from right now . Try me.
@@ExpeditingAmerica I got proof I get 1.50-2 even 4-10 sometimes I got proof
good job man and God bless you💕👌
Thank you very much man! Hope all is well
