Thought process behind ways to avoid a damage claim and some of the weird things you'll find transporting various cars. Simply put that's just trucking most days.

Love what you do and how you do it keep up the videos for those of us still learning. Yes im a subscriber.
That old school sounds mean boss
Hey I need those ramps! Lol
The wooden ones? 😂
On new chev front I seen few 2500 an 3500 that are level out that look good but the 15 to 19 gmc is best looking one they ever made they ran away from it to fast. They remind me of 95 to 98 z71 bAck when chev was cool to have
I run Nashville a lot it’s tuff on fueling side an expensive I live 4.5 hrs south of iy
I'm laughing here, I hope you forgot to take that bottle off the exhaust.
I wish you did the other side too.
Hope the owner of that Pontiac doesn't see the video. 😂
Colors are looking good in Kentucky now. Thanks again for sharing. Can't wait for the consultation!
i really want to run cars, but i don't like the thought of a wedge trailer and i am guessing 2 car trailer might not have any money in it.
That 3rd car is the game changer.
I avoid truck stops, except showers and food, I prefer rest areas.
Cabelas is my go to for peace and quiet lol
Not sure on the headset but I'd be curious about what GPS you use?
I use smart truck route II. It’s an app you pay for annually. It’s fantastic for the driving world. You can update height and length parameters and it will give alternate routes based on that. I’ve found a lot of unique routes because of this app since I’m rarely ever 13’6” anymore.
But if you ask tow p your going make million year don’t matter if fuel is 10 gallon
I would like to see some videos of your truck stop fueling and parking and more of the dash cam.... If possible.
Cant wait for the live
Anytime i end up staying in Nashville i stay at the Manheim it’s quite easy in easy out.
I still remember getting diesel for $1.77, the good old days of last year when we were a net exporter of oil...
Yep, way back about 15 months ago lol
yo mizer what kind of gps navigation you use?
I use an app on my tablet called Truck Route II 👍
What’s your empty weight?
Not sure the exact weight but I remember it’s right at 17k
Your the only hotshot I watch now as Robert and Terry have moved to semi.Spot on going forward with fuel charges .You know we get fuel discounts at pilot flying j like at the moment it’s .46 per gallon of the cash price
Let's go Brandon 🚶, between fuel and groceries its getting tough 💪
Ricky that time with Schneider tanker taught you to be a great car hauler 👍👍👍🇬🇧🇺🇸 just pulling your leg good vid young Sir
I’ve most definitely taped way more ears down on cam locks than I ever have bottles on exhaust tips! 🤣🤣🤣
Whats better for gear ratio for hotshot truck 4.10 vs 4.44 ???
If you’re mainly interstate speeds I’d go with 4.10
@@LoadMizer sounds good thanks for reply

How much is the average car haul a mile?
It depends on what you set your search parameters for. I don’t even see the cars under 80 cpm. Between cars, trucks and SUVs I generally see plenty to move between .80-1.20 per mile. Always try to bump the rate but I usually stack my trailer based on revenue per day. 3 cars at $350 will gross you $1,050. I usually try to run 400 or less miles.
@@LoadMizer I really appreciate the info, knowing numbers is a game changer, it really helps with deciding what road to go down. thank you.
I think like you we should be saying what we are seeing in this climate as transporters
😂 that’s how I’ve broken BEATS and they aren’t cheap either!! But good question
Hey buddy I’m so happy for you. I’m learning a lot from you! Now lm so excited to start my own business. l buy me a trailer today. Now lm going to get stack because l have no idea what to do next LOL😂😂😂
Indian fuel is ridiculous
Hey man I’m from around your neck of the woods. I ran Hotshot for about 6 loads and got a job pulling a tanker 3-4 days a week now in a Semi.
It’s 80 barrel now it is projected to be 200 barrel middle next summer an that will be 8 or 10 gallon an the economist that are predicting that ant been wrong yet so if it ant 200 it will be close to it new folks better watch what there stepping into an also dam crats got bill on table to knock insurance minimum up from 750,000 to 2 mil an there hiding it in big bill so there will be no push back on it these big truck co want that to push out little man
I'd like to find out more also about hotshot at moment I'm looking and just missing out on trailers , I'd like to stick in it for long haul like that the career can follow you where ever you'd move to, some places are just getting to pricey to live in
Did you ever release the bol templet?
I use the bluetooth in my stereo and it works great! No complaints about sound quality, I can see who is calling and tap the stereo. It also will read and allow me to reply via voice to text messages. I'm thru with wearing anything to talk on a phone anymore! Since you have the GoPro, try using the app on your phone and aim the camera at where the cars meet so you know what your gap is. I never haul more than one so I don't have that problem...but it's got to be a PITA for you to have to keep checking. And we know you can't bump!
I usually get out and check. When possible though I park in front of car windows or the dealership and use the reflections 👍👍 I used the dealership windows in this one lol
@@LoadMizer Lol! Awesome!
Arizona was between 3.40 and 3.80 California was around 4.50
Drop some merch!
I got a question. How do you go through indiana and get away from the length law when your truck has a bed attached??
My trailer is constructed to carry vehicles.
@@LoadMizer oh so since it isn't a hotshot flatbed then the length law dont matter??
There’s no specified length that it allows you to be for a car hauler. Most likely 75’ max. I never stressed much over it. It’s a stupid law that’s hardly enforced plus there’s only like 3 weigh stations in Indiana anyway lol
Fuel and tires are crazy. Just did a California run lowest fuel was Oklahoma @ 3.12 high was California @ 4.79 average was 3.50-3.79. Rates are not following the huge price increases if you listen to the news they claim freight rates are up 28%+ I’m not seeing it
Yeah man that’s crazy. I never really paid much attention to the national averages for rates. They never did line up with what I saw. Still don’t lol
I don't think those exhaust tips should hang that far down, certainly didn't from the factory....
pronounced it correctly. i live in Michigan on the other side from where you were at.
Hey, I try lol 💪
super glue....
It’ll break again.
No need for a headset I’ve never understood why anyone would wear one when you can just Bluetooth your phone to radio. Unless of course you just want to look like a supertrucking airplane pilot in the truck stop.
I spend almost as much time out of the truck loading and unloading cars as I do in the truck driving. I need my hands and can’t take every phone call in the truck. Plus on a personal level I find the conversation blaring throughout the truck extremely annoying. A headset just works better for me.
I just read it's costing shippers 150% more now to move a load....the brokers must be getting that cause it doesn't seem like our rates have went up much at all...
It’s market specific from what I’ve seen. I know liquid bulk and reefer have shot up
Deuce 👍
$3.99!? Try North of $5 out here in California!
Cali is its own special mess lol
May I have your business contact please, I would like to provide you some auto products for review？

That is an easy answer, it is not a Ford
😂
Georgia 4.10 a gallon 🤦♂️
Man that’s rough
