@jaycomatosvalerio1966 it's not about difficult, it's about learning the information, retaining it and waiting to be patient to do it. It takes time to get to this point but there are many immigrants that are truck drivers.
They had manual transmission when I was there, but I think they changed the fleet over to automatics. It took me maybe 3 and a half years to get into heavy haul there.
Man I can’t wait to get back on with landstar heavy haul I miss it keep the vids coming yeah that is something different I thought they built them on site of burial
What's up i have a important question when a load requires permits and there are directions on the permit. Do you follow the directions on the paper or is there a way to manually put them into the truck gps Garmin or copilot. A driver from spd smokey point told me don't let the escorts tell you were to go with the directions. You the driver are in control from start to finish. I'm thinking about going to smokey point. Peace
When the state issue you permits, you go where the permits tell you to go unless it's a blanket permit. When it comes to blanket permits, you have to find your own way, but you are responsible for what roads you can drive on, road conditions like construction, bridge weight restrictions, vertical clearance, and things like that.
It depends on the agent you work with. I try my best not to go below $4.25 a mile with my setup. I seen some horrible rates way below that on the board and agents calling offering that. But I don't take them. It's plenty of freight to move above $4.25. My truck spec is: DD15 @ 560 hp 18 spd transmission 3.91 rear 52K rear ends 20 K pusher axle 2 speed rear ends I got a video that has me going over my truck spec. Here's the link to the video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CoHom0bPZI4.html
Man, I think I saw you headed West, last week. IF that was you, you were empty in Louisiana. I was loaded with a tarped military truck headed east. Keep up the good work, Bro. ✌🏾 #landstar #573010
It probably was if you saw me on I 20 in Louisiana. Im trying to remember if I saw you. But I appreciate you for watching my videos, especially since you have more experience in this type of work than me.
@@HeavyHaulHustle yessir, that was you, then. I was actually coming out of Nevada, with that particular load. I appreciate you and your channel, man. I don't do Facebook or none of the other's, except LinkedIn and Alignable, because those two you can really network and meet business minded people. Plenty of #Landstar agents on both of those platforms. Be safe, Bro, we'll meet up, somewhere. ✌🏾
Yes sir, I'm still with them. Coming from a previous company that dispatched you, I feel I have more control over what I want to do and am able to plan loads well in advance to keep me busy. Of course, they do have some cons with doing that because a load could cancel, and it can mess up your workflow.
Man I can’t wait to come back hopefully I’ll have a heavier suitable truck I pulled the company rgn extendable for about two years keep the vids coming man
Lol, sorry. I don't drink, my friend. When you do your orientation, make sure you get the list of the top 50 highest gross agency of 2022. It will help you down the road.
What do you mean about axle spacing? You talking about weight for each axle? Also crossing a bridge to get to a truck stop. So your saying if I get off the interstate and cross a bridge before a truck stop that's a ticket? I'm just curious about those.
What I mean about axle spacing is the measurement from the center hub of your axle to the center hub of the next axle. For example, the center of your steer axle hub to the center of your first drive hub. That will be your axle 1 to 2 measurement. Weight for each axle varies by state. When it comes to Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and most state, they will ticket you if you cross a bridge to get to a truckstop because it's not on your route. Ohio, you have to request a truckstop on your permit if you have to cross a bridge to get to it.
