Get rid of that factory truck bed and install a flat bed. That allows you to haul 4 full size pallets in one trip. Less bed damage from loading and easy to side load. Easy to tarp. Mo money.

I've tried the 255 80R17 which work well but wear is a problem. Do you happen to know of a size that would work? Thanks and tell little buddy that he's cute!

@CPSteveMiller 3 года назад

Spacers aren't a big deal. I recommend getting a set of 2" hub centric ones for 285 70 17 and 315 70 17. There isn't really a big size you can get away with without spacers. Skinny tires are harder to find. I'd get on the forums and see what they say. You're limited to maybe a 32" tire without spacers

There is dedicated hotshot work(pickup bed) but it's mostly for the guys that have been in the industry a long time. Unless you have contracts it really isn't liveable. I'm not hauling cars locally in pa and the surrounding states. Home daily. 3 car trailer.

Great video...i was wondering if your profit margin is between 30 and 50 percent..would that be considered decent? Is that a common margin for power only?

@CPSteveMiller 3 года назад

Profit margin depends on what you run truck wise, insurance, overhead expenses, dispatch percentage, lease on percentage, own your own authority, etc.. My bills and overhead come out to 77cpm and the truck's fuel and maintenance is 34cpm. If I make 4k in a week I can usually keep around 2k of it. If I make 6k I can keep around 3500 give or take. Just depends on the week. Everybody does their finances differently. I don't take a paycheck. I pay my bills and put the rest aside

Look i realize this question has to have been answered somewhere. But i haven't found it yet. What is a couple average mpg running power only that is possibly expected. so i realize car hauling is something like 8, rough guess. But for power only i am unsure, obviously gonna be different deadhead miles every week ect. But did you have a couple mpg for power numbers you can throw my way. .. maybe a couple different weekly mpg averages or something. you had in past.

@CPSteveMiller 2 года назад

With 3 cars I'm about 11.5mpg at 26k pounds. Lowest I ever got power only was 7 and that was a tiny home. Campers and boats will get you worse mileage than a flatbed pulling cars

What company is this man :o

@sheepdoglogic 2 года назад

Most Flatbed's are NOT making 6, 7, or 8K a week. Yes, some do but most do not, so lets get that straight now. As n O/O running under someone else's authority, finding your own loads, $5K is the goal per week but you have to work for that. Even if you have a dispatcher, your goal is $5K a week gross. Again, very few make over that and even fewer will make beyond that.

@CPSteveMiller 2 года назад

5k a week is always the goal. I see a lot of flatbed guys consistently doing 7k a week though. Power only I could see 4k consistently a week and some weeks 5k. With my 3 car hauler and the route I run I'm happy at 4500 a week minimal. I do pa to Florida and back and stay home. Everybody is different. Hotshot beneii covers the flatbed stuff. Dude is definitely doing more than 5k a week every week. I do 6 days out and 3 to 4 home

I pay cash for all that. There's no need for dental and vision insurance. Glasses are 600 bucks every other year and the 2 times I go to the dentist a year is 300 bucks. Much less than insurance. Retirement is up to the individual. There are insurance providers for 1099 contractors and business owners. It's all simple stuff just takes a little bit of looking into.

There is no freaking way you can make that much a week.

@CPSteveMiller 2 года назад

Watch my recent video. My average gross every week is 5 to 6,000 with my 3 car trailer. With just the truck I was doing $4,000 gross weekly easily. Average was 3,300 miles. Take home was about 60% back then but I bought a trailer now.

How can I make friends with Brokers? What should I say to them?

@CPSteveMiller 2 года назад

I only have one that I stayed friends with. Most of them are terrible to deal with and will low ball you. Direct customers are the way to go. Cut the broker out

"How to... " 🤦‍♂️ This isn't a how-to video. This some tips for people that are already in the industry. I still have no clue how things work.

Who covers the costs of trailer tire blowouts, especially if there is no spare?

@CPSteveMiller 3 года назад

Customers are 100% responsible for tires, axles, and wheel bearings. It is up to the driver to make a good decision at pickup though. Always make sure they're properly inflated. If there's dry rot you gotta make the customer aware. They are made aware of tires, axles, and bearings when the job is taken that way they aren't surprised by it.

Nosh*& so what kind of numbers did you recall with boats and campers?

@foryouuugamingcoalition7110 2 года назад

wow i woulda thought boats would have been great mpg

@foryouuugamingcoalition7110 2 года назад

i know you said 7 was the worst i can imagine hauling a brick would be bad. I look into everything everyday .Hoping to get my own truck right away, but wont be able to get a trailer. I think power only is what i will be starting out with. I drove a semi for years so i somewhat know what to expect. Trying to crunch numbers is a guessing game. I was just hoping the fuel mpg would be greater than 8. I know the hauls dictate it. I never pulled an RV so i just plain don't know. I know 50cpm fuel cost would be rough af. I think cali is over 4 bucks maybe 5 bucks a gallon right now.

You said your expenses are a grand a week, but you only making 4k a month? Did you mean your expenses are only 1 grand a month?

@CPSteveMiller 2 года назад

I don't remember what my expenses were but I was consistently doing 4k a week, not a month. I worked 3 weeks a month and took a week off. Average revenue was about 12k a month on average. Now everything changed and I'm running a 3 car trailer and am home daily making the same 4k a week. There's a lot more money on the table if you wanted to be out longer but I'd rather sleep in my own bed.

Why want you tell who you are leased on too. You said you would later on

Because I don't want them getting a ton of calls. 2 people have already found out and called.

@CPSteveMiller 3 года назад

@@terrythurman2949 People were looking for a company to lease on or work for. They're currently full and don't need drivers at the moment. I've personally had almost 40b people ask and were looking for a place. I can't help with that part unfortunately. Obviously won't be able to hide it forever but I'll put it out there eventually when the time comes.

@thehorseman1806 2 года назад

Wouldn't a CAI also help with mpg? You mentioned tires and types of loads to help with mpg but discouraged aftermarket air intake.

@CPSteveMiller 2 года назад

Most will hurt mileage because they put the filter in the engine bay to suck in hot air. A clean maintained stock paper filter will do wonders over a lot of aftermarket intakes. If you want one go with an s&b or banks because they are actually designed to take in cold air from outside just like the factory intake does

@bornpower 2 года назад

Does it have to be a diesel pickup truck?

@CPSteveMiller 2 года назад

Yes, gas trucks don't live well in this industry. Bad fuel mileage, they don't last half as long, no torque. It's not worth it. An older diesel is the way to go to avoid the newer diesel emissions problems

@THATNI99AJOHN 2 года назад

Look for a older diesel , something like a older 5.9 Cummins or even 7.3 power stroke . Be surprised on the deals you can find , if you want to avoid the dpf emissions don’t go above stay below a 2012 truck .

@Carpentry344 Год назад

I thought you were going to show how to make 4k a week you just talk about it. Do I belive no. Every one say don't do it. You will end up closing the business. But here they are still posting and making it. Thank you for you advice. But I think hotshot still there all depends how you manage you business. And when is your business you. An slow down or push it hard for few weeks and come home. HOT SHOT STILL GOOD just be wise we're you go
