I’ve been driving Class A OTR 22yrs. The first couple years When I first started driving the truck was just washed the dashboard was clear, and I got pulled in for an inspection. When it was done I asked the officer what prompted her to pull me in. “Nice clean truck, company with good record, easy inspection “

Been driving trucks of one sort or another since 1968, have thought about hauling RV's lately. I appreciate your experience and your willingness to share your knowledge with us. In my career, I have trained many individuals, not only to drive trucks, but how to load and unload trailers ( pneumatics) etc. You are providing valuable information for those of us who are interested in hauling RV's. I'm not retired, wouldn't know what to do with myself if I wasn't working, have had a job of one sort or another since 1961. Wish I could break the habit (not going to happen) so I will continue to do something that constitutes "work" to keep me happy. Thank you 😊.

One of the most informative vids I’ve watched on this subject.

Finally...actual information! Thank you!

I like how you're right to the point

Weight isn’t as important as wind resistance and drag Haul 5th wheels even if they are heavy. The wind drag is MUCH less, fuel economy is about 20-30% better and they pull much smoother. Bumper pull = 8 mpg while 5th wheel = 11

What should I expect for Insurance? I know everyone is different and driving record has a lot to do with it but more looking for a ballpark. Great video.

Great video ! People like me want to hear what the real deal is.

What have you been up to? No new videos been wondering if your still moving rvs?

I’ve been working for Horizon for 16 years they can’t cover everything in orientation in two days you Gotta have a little bit of common sense anybody interested in this kind of work should make a list of questions

Most employees who work inside the building have never worked OTR. It's not illegal, just unethical.

I recently retired from txdot . I was thinking of bringing back loads to Texas . Which is a tad over 1000 miles . I live in East texas . Maybe twice a month I would get loads

Thanks brother. God's blessing upon you. Safe travels

Smh and I was looking at running RV's in the winter during my down time. That and I need another pickup truck. I make more money running tri-axle during the warm months. This would be just extra money for me through the winter. Every thing your talking about all adds into why I cam off the road pain in the ass anymore smh

Well binged all videos all caught up can wait for more love content and look forward to more keep up the great work

Extremely informative

Thanks for posting again. Good stuff, totally agree. I run the reload board out of the PNW, a lot of shorter loads out here but still can make some money. The board is dead right now though, been told it’s due to factories shutting down for the new model year?

You should never pull a park model with anything less than a 5500. Park models are truck killers for all trucks under a 5500. Yeah I know there are some guys out there with duallys that say I have hauled several and my truck its fine. Then we can go to the two dozen guys I know that have torn up rear ends, transmissions, engines and frames doing it with duallys and below. So if you want to save your truck and your under a 5500 never haul a park model.....EDIT.... An dispatch and the company know this and even stated that yes those park models should really be in the class A division so since they are still not that tells me again Horizon is still screwing drivers with failure to communicate and put loads on the proper boards.

If you don't get reimbursed, you can still get to write it off on your taxes.

Good informative video and glad your still rolling When will it start picking up again?

Who were you working for at the time? and what type of truck were you driving with the sunroof

I was looking at doing this you just about talked me out of it

You forgot to mention the full width mud flaps come out your pockets too lol ✌️

Have you ever considered CWRV Transport? I've been researching them and have talked to recruiters. They do store to store transfers and stuff out of manufacturers. So it seems like you'll have more chances to stay loaded and not always having to deadhead back to indiana...have you heard or talked to any cwrv drivers?

I’ve been thinking about doing this. I think the pay is too low. It would be fine if it weren’t for the lack of a backhaul. To replace your pickup truck in a couple of years, the $60,000 tag is going to be unattainable

thanks for your insight.

By the way sir what is your name...... I have watched half of your videos and learned a lot and what is your name??????

Yes they do set you up for failure. Anyways good to c ya again. Thanks for the videos.

I'll do an update video this weekend...stay tuned!

Some transports don't require Log booking

Great info, Thanks

Thanks for the information...

Can you make $2k a week after expenses?

How are you liking your truck bed camper? How did it affect fuel mileage ( loaded vs. bobtail) Do you think you are losing many loads by not having a 5th wheel? Would you do it again? Thanks

yeah I forgot to say did you say that you were a machinist or something at one time I was going to say hey why you pulling RVs machinist make good money.

Did you buy a slide in camper? I enjoy your channel

I forgot to mention after I dropped off my run in arroyo grande California coming back going back to whole way to shipshewana I was getting over 18 miles to the gallon with my 410 rear end Dodge high output dually with the Cummins 6 7 so it was doing really well over 18 miles to the gallon but still I'm not getting any kind of mileage you are getting but then again I have an out high output and it's putting out a lot of power.

Do you need CDL or Commercial insurance to do this? I need to start making money asap I have a 2016 Ram 3/4 hem Hd gas burner 4x4 with 51k miles on it. already have 7 pin and 5th wheel I use for my camper.

I think commonsense and want to go along way in rv transport

Do you recommend buying a used truck or going out and buying a new truck?? I’ve been wanting to get into this for a while I’ve been delivering medicine for the last couple years and that has come to an end... looking for advise thanks

After pulling RVs with a P/U truck I've determined if you get an Enterprise truck which is $3500/down plus $0.22/mile or you have a newer nice 1 ton truck you need to do Haul&Tow by buying a 50' low pro trlr so you can get 2 or 3 travel trlrs paying $2.30/mi instead of only $1.39 plus you get backhaul cars that will pay at least fuel both ways with even just one car. You'll actually make great money if more than 1 car backhaul

Where in goshen can I pick up the small breakaway battery set up? About how much do they run?

Thanks for all the videos, Do you have a CDL? Does your wife?

Any tips on preparing for paying taxes?

That's what all these so called transporters do not talk about

How long do you stay out?

Its all about cash flow in the rv business

do you need dot numbers ? do you have to go thru scales?

One thing he doesn't mention is the cab of a pickup doesn't meet d.o.t. requirments for a sleeper and if your logging off duty they can request to see motel receipts

Can a passenger drive u back to the yard after your 14 hour day...11 hour drive time .. thanks..

Is it worth doing this as a team? Is there enough money in it?

Does Horizon reimburse you for tolls?

I live in South Carolina. Would it be cost effective for me to do this?

hey I've left you quite a few messages and you don't respond what's up boss come on you're an intelligent Guy come on help me out here all right well I've done a couple of runs already out of shipshewana no problems everything's cool but I learned the hard way don't bring your wife and don't stay in hotels every night because that spends about $75 a night so I stayed in hotels for about fifteen nights.

This is your 3rd Orientation. Hmmm. Good Luck

I team driving worth it?

Do you have to stop at way stations?

You're way too smart to be a driver.

Hey you still rolling?

not correct about gas buddy. Its for Diesel as well. You have to use the filters in the app man. Get the ES Advantage card.
