Alex, thank you for deciding to show a little bit of your driving and your truck. I really did enjoy it a lot. Please do it more often. Thanks for the great video.
@@jerrymendoza7681 Thank you! I have a video on my channel about my truck setup but not sure if I talk about everything. I’ll try to make a new one eventually.
new subscriber here that finds your videos very informative and educational. also very transparent with how you run your business. keep up the good work sir!!!
Hey Alex! It's good seeing you hope you had s great vacation. Good job on securing those loads as always!! I hope too see you out there soon. I'm working on my Authority now. Take care Alex!!👍🏾✌🏿Ken! OH!!
Excellent securement video Alex! Hey can you go into a little detail on your 5th wheel setup? I've seen those setups for rv hauling mainly but i don't know a whole lot about them. Thanks man and have a great week.
@Mr.AlexKogan I was thinking it was always gooseneck. Did you go 5th wheel for more stability or because it's the 65 foot deal? Thanks for responding 👍
Still another GREAT securement of your customer's shipments Alex!! That was some miserable weather for sure up there in Maine. Hope it was better in Detroit for you. How is your truck doing now? Drive safe always!!
Alex thanks for sharing hope everything is well. If you don't mind sharing what's your monthly payment for that Ram and also the trailer. Thanks be safe.
Hey there, are you still stuck in New England with just the partial? I’m in Massachusetts and can give you a number to call. I don’t want to post here what the loads are but there’s usually stuff headed to Western NY. Let me know, happy to help.
Hey Alex, Im not one to criticize, you do this for a living, I dont. I was watching a vid by SuperTrucker Dan. At times he also hauls coils like this. He mentioned that it was better to run your chains from left front through the coil and to right rear and the left rear through the coil to the right front. That way if you have a chain failure, the coil wont be able to roll foward or backward. Just a little fyi. Enjoy the vids. Be safe out there.
I have the same truck and trailer but currently wondering if it’s good for me to hop into hot shot. I plan to lease to a company but man is it worth the jump ?? You think I’ll clear 200k my first year ?
@@Mr.AlexKogan ok, next time let me know. I'm looking for an expert that can working which me on "Trucking Business Plan" did you have any referece by chance?
Do you always have to record them putting and removing from trailer? Only asking because I’m looking to get into freight, currently an auto hauler but want to do something different.
@@Mr.AlexKogan ok kool, so in auto hauler we do electronic BOL of before pickup and after once delivered. Do you have to do anything similar when it comes to condition of freight your picking up or delivery?
@@yokelguillory6834 ai just get a BOL when I pick up my load and when I drop it off I have the receiver sign it and I upload it to factoring to get paid.
@@Mr.AlexKogan oh ok lol. been watching your videos non stop all day bro. i love how transparent you are, most of these hotshot youtubers throw fake news & numbers out there!
Alex, thank you for deciding to show a little bit of your driving and your truck. I really did enjoy it a lot. Please do it more often. Thanks for the great video.
I’ll try to do that in the future videos.
@@Mr.AlexKogan can you go in detail about your set up? Like the small screen in front of you, what’s it for? What does it monitor? Great content bro!
@@jerrymendoza7681 Thank you! I have a video on my channel about my truck setup but not sure if I talk about everything. I’ll try to make a new one eventually.

Excellent securement video Alex! Hey can you go into a little detail on your 5th wheel setup? I've seen those setups for rv hauling mainly but i don't know a whole lot about them. Thanks man and have a great week.
Thanks. I’m mot sure what all I can tell you about the 5th wheel. I don’t know much about it besides that it works. lol.
@Mr.AlexKogan I was thinking it was always gooseneck. Did you go 5th wheel for more stability or because it's the 65 foot deal? Thanks for responding 👍
@@alvinmann7675 It came with the truck when purchased it. It’s supposed to give you a smoother ride and way easier to hook up and unhook.
Still another GREAT securement of your customer's shipments Alex!! That was some miserable weather for sure up there in Maine. Hope it was better in Detroit for you. How is your truck doing now? Drive safe always!!
Thank you! Weather got better towards the center of the country. Truck is driving and doing great. 👍🏻
Keep grinding my friend good weeks r coming Alex on my way to MA fully loaded😎😎😁😁 be safe.
Thanks Alfonso. 😁👍🏻
Hey Alex , I watch your videos from Australia , can you show more of the roads you travel on and the truck stops you stay at cheers Big Pete.
Thanks Pete! I’ll try to incorporate that in the videos.
Alex thanks for sharing hope everything is well.
If you don't mind sharing what's your monthly payment for that Ram and also the trailer.
Thanks be safe.
Will be great meet with you in person.
I have same set up as you next week I'm going out any advise 😅
Nice. Double check everything on securement and don’t rush.
Get yourself some coil racks and also bind down one to the left and one to the right
This is my second coil in a year and a half. Doubt I’ll invest in coil racks.
@@Mr.AlexKogan I understand lol but they aren’t that much.
@@jamesnelson5700 where would you store them?
@@Mr.AlexKogan I put mine in my dunnage rack
@@jamesnelson5700 my dunnage rack has 3 tarps. No more room. I don’t think those racks are important enough for me to carry.
Why did you get rid of the gmc ? Is that a ram 2500?
It’s a 3500. Never had a GMC.
Hey Alex hope your doing well . What your max weights you can carry on your trailer ?
I can carry 15,000lb on my trailer.
Hey there, are you still stuck in New England with just the partial? I’m in Massachusetts and can give you a number to call. I don’t want to post here what the loads are but there’s usually stuff headed to Western NY. Let me know, happy to help.
No I’m long gone from there.

Enjoy the vids. Be safe out there.
How MUCH u making on THIS GIG ALEX
How did you get the maps full screen on your display?
Apple car play. Android doesn’t allow full screen.
I have the same truck and trailer but currently wondering if it’s good for me to hop into hot shot. I plan to lease to a company but man is it worth the jump ?? You think I’ll clear 200k my first year ?
I can’t say. First year is always the hardest. Especially the way it is now.
Hi Alex, you still in Maine?
I'm living in Maine.
No. Long gone 😁
@@Mr.AlexKogan ok,
next time let me know.
I'm looking for an expert that can working which me on "Trucking Business Plan" did you have any referece by chance?
Sorry my name Chali
Do you always have to record them putting and removing from trailer? Only asking because I’m looking to get into freight, currently an auto hauler but want to do something different.
You don’t have to record. I record so you guys can see what goes on at the shippers and receivers.
@@Mr.AlexKogan ok kool, so in auto hauler we do electronic BOL of before pickup and after once delivered. Do you have to do anything similar when it comes to condition of freight your picking up or delivery?
@@yokelguillory6834 ai just get a BOL when I pick up my load and when I drop it off I have the receiver sign it and I upload it to factoring to get paid.
Hi, what is the max weight and length you can carry?
My trailer is 40 ft so whatever fits on it and I believe you can have 2-3 feet overhang on rear. Weight wise I can take 15,000lb
How much can max on weight
If you are asking about the trailer, then I can carry 15,000lb.
What device do you use for ELD?
I use iPad Pro.
hey, if you don’t mind me asking, what do you book your loads from?
My dispatcher does. Truckstop, DAT and maybe some other sites
@@Mr.AlexKogan by any chance did you pass through iowa today? I seen a setup that looks just like yours passing through when I was lol
@@b58tristenn wasn’t me.
@@Mr.AlexKogan oh ok lol. been watching your videos non stop all day bro. i love how transparent you are, most of these hotshot youtubers throw fake news & numbers out there!
@@b58tristenn Thank you! Appreciate your support 👍🏻
👍
Why don't you film road, driving, resting, food etc?
I don’t like to make my videos super long so I do my food and gym and other stuff in separate videos. Maybe I can do it in one video in the future.
