I agree that we shouldn't haul cheap freight. Where I absolutely disagree is the assumption that everyone has the same operating costs and is in exactly the same situation. I think everyone would agree that a truck running cost of $1.50 per mile is much more profitable than a cost of $2.50 per mile. So that's a very subjective thing and the details of which you do not posses.
Increasing oil production does not happen overnight. America will see NO result on that for a while. One reason, NO new refineries in 60 years. So, doesn't matter how much oil you drill.
@votes-haveconsequences2165 and @robertward8035 Good points! Oil production does take years to ramp up, and new refineries haven’t been built in decades. The recent increase in production partly comes from leases auctioned off during the Trump administration, with permits signed under Biden.
Tariffs are for bringing manufacturing back to to states. Companies won’t want to pay tariffs with overseas slave labor. It’s a win for the US. Get your head out of the sand.
I appreciate you stopping by. My guys in dispatch did all the hard work. It's not necessarily my take on the future but more of the policy changes I expect to see and the direction I think he'll take over the next four years.
@@AFTDispatch They don't even know. So how are you? This early, only four days out. Google searches already are "how do tariffs work" and (paraphrase) "how do I take my vote back?" Kinda late dontcha think?
@ do this instead .. Google freight broker near me … then write down the top ten … then call each one … build a repore… find a niche… don’t haul general freight .
How do you say Trump will do corporate tax cuts, then in the same breathe say we will pay more in taxes. Please explain cause this doesn't make me feel like you know what your talking about?
On trucking, yes he is spot on. Dispatcher magic is the key. Most dispatchers are very sharp, but not all dispatchers can "work that magic." Politics? It is what it is. Politicians don't make any sense, because they can't. No true rhyme or reason to economic finance as we know it. Mostly made up figures to win over the citizenry. So obviously you can't expect a "Trucker" to make any sense of it all. Truckers basically just regurgitate talking points heard on their favorite media network.
@votes-haveconsequences2165 if that's your opinion, you don't underside how tariffs work. If you do think you understand, please explain so everyone reading this doesn't think you're incompetent
BULL-SHIT if Trump supports small business. He supports BIG business. That screw's truck drivers. Remember he took company drivers meal deductions away.
Trump’s policies cut taxes across the board. Meaning benefiting both big and small businesses. The meal deduction for company drivers was changed, that’s part of the larger tax reform aimed at reducing overall tax rates, which did benefit a lot of owner-operators and independent drivers. It's easy to focus on one point, but the bigger picture shows small businesses, including trucking, got plenty of support through deregulation and tax cuts. So, let’s be real.
@AFTDispatch BULL-SHIT, you are watching too much Fox News. Idiot Trump couldn't even get an infrastructure bill passed. He did NOTHING for truck drivers. If he wanted to help drivers he would have done away with ELDs or at least made them a choice.
@@MrRld1960 I want you to think about this. If you own a truck and you drive and operate it yourself. I your gross revenue is 250,000 for the year and your deductions are 200,000 your net income is 50,000. So with all your deductions as a driver you pay another 20,000 that means your income for the year is 30,000. At 30,000 per year income, you can't qualify for a home loan. What you pay yourself is your income not your gross income. Keep that in mind. He may have taken the deduction away but in the long run you personally are better off with respect to your Social Security. Adjust your thinking.
When the tariffs hurt the port cities. The container ship industry, the truckering industry, the rail industry. When did get rid of jobs and set a creating new jobs
I suggest people push for hemp biomass fuels. Like Henry Ford's hemp body car that was ten times stronger than steel and lighter than a fiberglass car. Because it would create thousands of truck freight driving jobs.
See the only pro hemp video the government ever produced, Hemp for Victory mostly filmed in Kentucky and surrounding Northern states. Two magazines had to sue the Federal Government three times to get a copy. The government was trying to deny it had ever been produced.
He also said all RULES / REGULATIONS not passed thru congress null and void because 3 letter groups cannot make rules or laws per the SUPREME COURT so bye bye goobersnort rules
I didn't know he said that, that's great news because the EPA has been pushing laws over the Federal Government for years now, and likely other three-letter-agencies have done the same.
Truck drivers rates been in the dumps since 2010😂😂😂 I have my own authority way back in the early 2000s the money isn't there nowhere near 2003 level😂😂😂 truck driving is on welfare paychecks only 😂😂 The rates will never be like it was back in the days
You musta been out to lunch during Covid. Which got us $4-6 a mile freight for a couple o years. Which led to the most of the Newbies with flooding in the industry n the current over saturation trucks for rates back to pre Covid
I disagree that trucks will go electric they weigh more then regular trucks so they cant hual as much legally and the battery is only lasting 500 miles which we are running 650-750 a day they would also have to have as many charging stations as their is truck stops they also cost way more in general
I hear you and I covered this in other videos as well over the years. What'll likely happen is trucks will still be propelled using electricity but how that electricity is stored or generated will be different to what we know. Capacitance will go up, costs will go down. It might end up being hydrogen or nuclear for all we know but it will most likely end up with electricity moving those wheels forward. Plus, if it's only laws that prevent them from hauling full weight, those have been amended already and they can surely be amended again. Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate it.
He is so excited saying $2.40× Mile...pff!!! When you pay for diesel around the $4.00× galon you spending around $1.00×mile from the $2.40 so in reality you making no money stol glorifying $2.00×mile rates
Everyone does not have the same operating costs. $2.40 this week, $2.80 next week, that's how you have a good month. This is basically a new carrier, in today's market making $7,075 in under a week. We're talking 170 miles of deadhead out of 3,121 total miles, that's 5.5% sir. At 7mpg and $3.53/gal diesel, it would run him $1,573 and that's if he only managed to buy at this week's average price. I would say Boris had an excellent week and should keep working hard and closely with his dispatcher. Thanks for stopping by.
I’ve been in a truck that applied the breaks without me knowing and it scared the living day outta of me. I was 80k and it made the truck start fishtailing. I was going 50mph in Dallas a car cut across several lanes and triggered the auto brake.. yes I don’t like it because that could have been a terrible accident had I not reacted the way I did immediately 😮

You kind of touch. Just touch bases on things which I guess is okay. But companies like mine one truck. Because that's the only way we're actually making it right now. But I didn't hear you say anything about what Trump's gonna do for the vets and veterans administration and veteran hospitals and vets that need things. I know what veterans we can get health care and medication and I wear, but there's nothing for dental nothing. Why isn't this mentioning being mentioned at all?And why can't we get help and make all the forms?You have to fill out for a grant to grow your business.Why doesn't it gotta take 8 months of filling out paperwork?Why don't we fix that too
It will take YEARS to rebuild manufacturing capabilities, if not decades. You don't build factories over night. And the few factories capable will price gouge. Any increase in cost will be pushed down the road onto the consumer. That is you and me. If he goes through with the tariffs like he said, we will see some serious inflation. Any profits you might make in trucking will disappear in a second.
Tariffs have never caused inflation... look at the past before making a false accusation. Since the inception of the Federal Reserve and the personal income tax has been the reason behind inflation. When we as a country operated solely on tariffs, the country had a huge surplus in money they couldn't figure out how to spend it!!!
@nelsonrivera981 @TruckingForHermes @MattMazoo I get where you're all coming from, but let's break it down. Yes, tariffs can create short-term pain, but in the long run, they were meant to push for more domestic production and reduce our dependency on countries like China. Sure, rebuilding manufacturing takes time, but that's the trade-off for a more sustainable economy in the future. @MattMazoo is right-tariffs alone don’t cause inflation. The bigger drivers are things like the Federal Reserve’s policies and the income tax system. Historically, when the U.S. operated largely on tariffs, we had surplus funds. But of course, there’s no easy fix. It’s a long-term play with a lot of moving parts. Let's not ignore the bigger picture.
@@MattMazoo you might wanna look at the tariffs and post just before the Great Depression and how badly it affected it from 1929 to 1933 before you make an accusation of false facts like you just did. Good luck with your way of thinking it is going to crush the trucking industry and middle class we will be, more worse off with higher inflation and Cost than you’ve ever seen
@chrishoefer3325 Not to be the corrector of your misinformation, my friend, but... The era of solely collecting tariffs ended in 1917.... which brought about the commission of the Federal Reserve (Big Bankers) making choices.... which brought about our government having to borrow our own money at whatever percentage interest rate the "bankers" chose as a check and balance that operating under collected tariffs allowed for. You're doing well in getting proper information. You just didn't go back quite far enough to see where the actual problem of creating the Federal Reserve and ending the tariff collecting age.
If you actually listen to the details, I’m breaking down how these policies impact trucking and small businesses. You can dismiss it all you want, but ignoring the facts doesn’t change them.

Dude you most definitely don't know what you are talking about. Have you stayed in a tariff country, I have. Tariff hurt the consumes, and in return the consumers cut back on spending because of higher prices. Basic business 101 tells you when consumers slow down, so does freight. When freight slows down, driver income goes down. Nothing good about what's coming for truckers, don't kid yourself folks. Save your money asap because it's about to be a very bumpy ride. Elon said to tear down the economy and rebuild, that's easy for him to say because he has money to withstand it. This dude on this show is a joke.
If companies start stocking up now, you’ll see an increase in freight demand and higher prices in the short term before the tariffs fully kick in. That’s the reality of it. What I said is pretty straightforward-prices will go up, yes, that’s what rebuilding domestic manufacturing does. It also creates more jobs, more freight, and ultimately, a stronger economy. You've clearly missed the point David, yet you call me a joke and not knowing what I'm talking about.
It's a basic business cycle. Demand goes up before the full effect of the tariffs kick in. I understand that can be hard to wrap your head around, but the truth is, rebuilding our domestic manufacturing sector is a long-term play.

It does matter how much oil you drill. Because it will decrease the global market price which effects the gas station prices for consumers
