I’m wanting to get into hotshotting, Can I make a good living from it. I hear people say they can make 70k-100k but is that gross. Like when I’m starting out, and I live in a huge city full of truck drivers so I think getting freight will be easy. But I want to know how much after insurance and fuel do you think it’s possible to make. Is it possible to make 60-70k a year profit. Also doing locally is there enough money to be made. I want to do mainly locally, then OTR every once in awhile. Like once a month or twice every other month
Unfortunately, I really don't think now is a great time to get in to hotshot as far as starting your own business. Current fuel prices, insurance costs, and new regulations are making it really difficult to turn a profit as a new operating authority. If you really want to pursue a career in trucking, I would have to recommend driving for a company at least to start. Just my $.02 but hope it helps. Thanks for watching & God bless!
