How much you make my question ?

Your video says why you quit Hotshot but you never said why? Reason I'm asking is because I'm starting a business up and I try to avoid the negative comments but sometimes you just can't... I just want to know why? Do you live North South East or West in the US. I live in the East. I'm wondering if I need to move to another location and if so what do you recommend. I hope everything goes great for you and your family... BEST WISHES AND BEST OF LUCK TO YA MAN..❤❤

whats the length of your trailer?

Probably went broke with the rates out here , most of these Hotshots are dying out, brokers are really sticking it to them. Which I don't get , they're running the haulers they need into starving out, then they won't have anyone to haul their freight. So keep sticking it to yourselves brokers.

Mr Austin speaks the truth, the haters are people who work for places like rig runners or butches making 200 per load and getting 1-2 loads a day they’re mad they are getting paid the bare minimum for the exact same work, my father and I worked hotshot (not gonna say the company name because it’s a family business) and some jobs would pay us 7k for one load, I’m talking Texas to Pennsylvania as quick as humanly possible, they pay for the speed and we delivered. Hot shots can make a lot of money if working for the right people or they can be used by the wrong people and make little to nothing.

i thought a non cdl limits your trailer to no more than 10,001lbs lol

Thank you for the motivation keeps me going thank you for sharing this free information really helps me out a lot I truly appreciate it thank you for your time

My Guy

are those loaded containers or empty

LoL im CDL lic holder. You dont want to disclose that info CAUSE compétition. Theyll end up taking your option loads away

Im about to get into hot shots but what conpanies can i get into to get started. I wanted to start getting to work but I need to wait 2 months to get my DOT numbers and stuff. I cant wait that much to work. So ill try going where i use their Dot numbers and dots

are tyou still a hot shot driver?

appearance, lol

Like the videos but not the background music

it’s that a goose neck on that rig??

so if you choose find your own freight (I am assuming you would do that on the freight boards online), is there ever a problem with getting paid once you haul the load? I am assuming sooner or later someone will not have the money to pay you.....or only have part of the money they agreed to pay you. giving a freight broker 20 percent seems kind of high. as everything is done online now. 30 years ago you probably had to have a freight broker or really do some work to find some loads to haul.

So do you have your class A or B CDL and you also work for a company or did you start your own LLC

What does everyone think about hotshotting & smoking weed? How about those drivers who use fake urine on the cdl physical tests?

Are you still doing hotshot?

Thanks for the info

Proud of you for being so mature for your age and making such great decisions in life! :-)

You are right about the west and nothingness...This is also very interesting job...startup costs 80.000

I am thinking about this as a second career, I have been a Laser operator in manufacturing for the last 20 yrs. I grew up in the trucking industry with my Father. I think its something I can do. what would you say to someone who hasnt been a driver and wants to get into this.

Dang man, hopefully you didn’t drop off because of negativity. Plenty of positivity out here pulling for ya. Hope all is well with you and your fam.

Where can I lease a gooseneck

How do they do maint on your trlr

Where r u leased onto

Where can I lease a hot shot trailers

How do they cover maint on your trailer

What company you leased onto

I am going to buy a F550 to try first a removal company if it's not works I will try to use same truck with a trailer and start a hotshot job but I won't go back to manufactures

Do u go on weight stations? Do u have logbook? How many hours can u drive

Can you take cdl A test on your dodge gooseneck trailer?

Do u need class A for this?

Love the (I assume) Halloween pic at the end! Cute family!

Food stuff. Getting your own M.C. would have put another $4000 in your pocket that month minus your insurance

Is it worth it though? Are you wishing you had a different job yet? Thank you!

👍👍👍👍

I'm confused, is your wife's insurance commercial insurance? And are you on that insurance? Or are you under whatever policy the company you are leased to has?

Good video, thank you

Now do that on a semi flatbed 13 feet in the air, I’ll wait....we’ll talk after 🤣

Great job young man! I am between jobs and interested in hotshot. What is a good company to lease on with and do I need CDL’s? Thanks and keep trucking!

Good job buddy

So you ended up getting your CDL?

Nice Video straight to the point

I am 21, i have had my cdl since i was 19. How do you get insurance and loans to get the truck and trailer, i have a 730 credit score i dont know if thats good enough.

Hi Austin, do I need a CDL to do hotshot and is there anyway to lease for hotshot truck/trailer to do hotshot ? Thanks !

I just looked into this not because I want to do it but out of curiosity, an 18 wheeler driver makes at best 60k a year. I don’t know how much different it is when you owe the truck, but obviously you can only do smaller loads. He must be doing shorter trips and not taking any time off. Plus account for all the expenses... good for him .

Too much fucking red tape

At 22 I still had same car I did in high school and work my ass off just keep it running..lol..
