What works best for you guys right now? Going OTR or regional? I didn’t explain much about the topic, I really just want to get feedback on what has been working best for some during the current challenges with the market right now.

Try and stay regional create a route the more you pass by the same building s same roads same views which will benefit multiple ways , you’ll know we’re the best restaurants , truck stops at, know where you get hood phone connection, no what places to avoid, and gives you action at finding common ground with the shippers in the area cause you guys share the same familiarity. 600 miles east west north south your home being in the middle you’ll end up being able to spend your 10 jr rest period at home with out losing time and money aswell

PD Diesel Power ....that's my boss he owns a hotshot company and is a major Dodge Ram diesel guy he just went through 8 3500s for similar problems I highly recommend you check out his videos he is a 6.7 master and knows these trucks inside and out I drive one of his 2019 3500s as a hotshot driver and love this truck ..watch some of his vids and you will see what he's gone through with his trucks it may help you diagnose your issues ....I really enjoy your videos keep em coming .

Also I went from OTR to regional I run the pacific northwest areas

Change both filter in the transmission and put dealer oil we can can do it for you we are local here in Houston Texas been in business for over 30 years and we fix a lot of this trucks.

I'm got a 2022 3500 Ram and I have the same problem between 50-55(3&4 gears) mph. Having the exact issue. I replaced the egr cooler at 170k miles.I noticed it at about 178k. I'm at 200k now. I My mechanic works at the Ram dealership. He did all my transmission flush and rear end maintenance. He said just pay attention to it and hopefully we can decipher if it is the rear end or tranny before puts me.down with a load. Great content bro! I'll make sure to keep in touch with feedback as well.

@rowdyross44 11 месяцев назад

I believe the transmission in that truck is supposed to be serviced every 30,000 miles. Bring back the hotshot vlogs😎

@lhunt769 11 месяцев назад

I went from OTR to southeast regional and last few months I’ve been doing short hauls locally and home every night. The gross is less but so is the cost. I still venture out sometimes but never more than 3-400 miles from home.

@NHZ_x4 10 месяцев назад

Yup but makes the work day much more comfortable aswell you know where the most convenient places to fuel up at are at you get familiar with the views , buildings all that break downs won’t be as nerve racking since your close to home or on familiar areas, eventually find yourself loading across the street from where you unloaded last week and get familiar with the shippers in the area or forklift drivers atleast I suggest creating g a route to build relationships close to home

@charleslopez1618 11 месяцев назад

Damn I been struggling so much. 😢but I’m keep grinding find something that works for me. Good luck out there bro. You inspired me to start hotshoting bro.

@vietdmax6.6 11 месяцев назад

I’ve been running regional. Occasionally run to Florida and surrounding states to Texas. I’m just tired of sleeping at truck stops. But for real on them getting all that info lol same with port loads. So many check in points and also check outs pita… I watch any content you guys put out so it doesn’t deter me what you want to share 💪But I would’ve place the loads to disperse the weight so that the trailer doesn’t buck too much. You did great with that load placement

@kennethwilliams3877 11 месяцев назад

Could be the module on top of your particulate filter! Its a recall on my unit.. Check that out!! Ken!! Oh!!

@HotshotMacc 11 месяцев назад

Most definitely will get that checked out brother! Thanks for the advice Ken!

@jessielinville3181 11 месяцев назад

A good mix of vlogs is good. Always liked all your videos since your beginning. Thanks for all the good info and content. Hopefully I can get the start up money saved faster than what I am now, can’t wait to get started. My mom passed in feb, so the expenses wiped my savings, so I started over saving for that start up. Be safe out there.

@r.jssmokinpitt977 11 месяцев назад

One more thing is I've picked up from them several times and love the service and on time payments from them from that company.Try your best to get them as a customer it is worth it since we both are from Houston area.

@HotshotMacc 11 месяцев назад

Which place are you referring to?

@adriangarcia2007 11 месяцев назад

21:36 if you to go delete, you would be breaking the law very few states, even kind of allow it I mean, if you’re jumping from state to state doing deliveries that’s not a good idea on your manual it should tell you within how many miles you are supposed to maintenance you’re EGR you should carry a scanner with you because it even tells you what you’re damaging if you’re not performing proper maintenance on your EGR system because if you don’t maintenance your EGR, you’re opening more doors of problems to your truck

@brandonberg7703 11 месяцев назад

Transmission needs to be serviced. Do not flush the transmission. Just drain the old fluid and replace filter. There is no such thing as lifetime transmission fluids.

@HotshotMacc 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the advice bro!

@r.jssmokinpitt977 11 месяцев назад

switch to Amsoil transmission, get transmission filter change when you change to Amsoil & oil you will be surprised

@anthonyshriner4362 11 месяцев назад

I used to twist the strap. But dot made me change them, said it was unsafe 😂 I guess it could be.. But that's alaska though. Distribution looks good. I sure wish I could get into hotshot. I'm so tired of driving the big trucks after so many years. Keep the shiny side up

@HotshotMacc 11 месяцев назад

Appreciate that bro! They’ve never told me anything about it but I have heard some situations where they brought it up. It can reduce the strap’s capacity by half but that’s why I always make sure to over secure. But it’s recommended even by manufacturers bc it reduces that flapping that can damage the strap or cargo. Thanks for the feedback on the distribution, I like to get advice from the ones that have been doing this for a long time and have the knowledge. And I feel you on that man, change is good and trucking can definitely get tiring! When that time is right go for it and make it happen brother! Stay safe out there 🫡💯

@justinbohall3860 11 месяцев назад

How do you get into the containers? I've been interested in looking at that

@HeroesHotshotTrucking 11 месяцев назад

If you use your tow/haul mode and engine brake and cruise control alot. That's the transmission and rear end getting ready to go out. Hopefully that's not the case and its something simple. But do have it looked at. I know from experience and had to get a new truck cause of it.

@HotshotMacc 11 месяцев назад

I do use all 3 just not the cruise control all the time but it gets used for sure. But that’s good to know man! I for sure hope thats not the case man but we will find out soon! Appreciate the feedback 🙏🏽🫡💯

@olsonsinoverdrive5153 11 месяцев назад

Regional seems convenient. But too many delays loading- unloading vs long haul . Im not sure. it’s a great topic to discuss. Great job on the videos. You inspire lots of people.

@HotshotMacc 11 месяцев назад

Man that’s a great point! You definitely have to consider the time and extra work involved. It’s definitely gonna be different for everyone but I might touch on the topic a bit more. Thanks for the feedback and the support brotha! 🫡💯

@codymullican1988 11 месяцев назад

Enclosed car hauling is all over the place. Sometimes you get a great day trip but that never lasts. I’m sure that’s pretty typical of most hot shotting though?

@alejandroamaro8303 2 месяца назад

Hi, how do you find spots to park your truck overnight? I see you park at big parking lot stores at times? Or only truck stops?

@HotshotMacc 2 месяца назад

I use the “Trucker Path” app to find the truck stop locations. Also use Google maps and zoom in to look at parking lots.

Regional is better for many reasons: Less wear and tear on your equipment, less fuel, and your ass is hella closer to home. So if you compared 5-6K per week regional to OTR, the net has to be better regional.
