I'm a huge fun of your channel here in Wichita ks...also from 254. Trying to get in the box truck business.

[@Milesinabox]

Thanks, I appreciate.

[@mykalhenry]

If you can pallet jack the load to the lip of the truck then thats always better. Sometimes weight doesn't allow this and you just have to let the forklift on. Get the airbag looked at/changed out.

[@ritovillarreal9202]

How do you get loads

[@paulherbert2168]

👍

[@VchaosTheoryV]

Rates even good with straight-trucks?

[@michellebrown7595]

How do you keep your devices connected with wifi? Do you use a portable hotspot device or run off your phone hotspot?

[@Milesinabox]

No, I have a cellular iPad

[@michellebrown7595]

@@Milesinabox Ahh okay and you are able to run all your devices off of the iPad? I got the Garmin OTR 500 but was wondering how to run everything without draining my phone. Bought a hotspot but wasn’t sure if the data would be enough thank you for the help I can return the hotspot and go the iPad route.

[@Milesinabox]

@@michellebrown7595 yes I am able to run my devices on it while having my phone as a backup.

[@michellebrown7595]

@@Milesinabox Awesome, thank you so much Miles I’m all set up with my 26ft to go OTR but this was one of my main concerns 🙏🏾🙏🏾 Love your channel thank you again 😊

[@michellebrown7595]

@@Milesinabox I know in one of your videos you mentioned how you keep the iPad secure but can you remind me on what stand you use?

[@lifewithyusuf3127]

How are loads coming out of Iowa? Going to MN area?

[@Milesinabox]

It’s a hit or miss per week but they are there

[@paulherbert2168]

That off centre steering wheel would really annoy me!!

[@Milesinabox]

Its manageable for now!

[@RaySamon]

Do U Need A CDL

[@yourlocalbrothermachnic]

No not on 26 feet or less anything more yes from what I was told

[@ritovillarreal9202]

Under 26k ??

[@TruckerCalculator]

Hi! I developed software to help owner-operators and carriers manage their expenses and keep track of fleet finances effortlessly. I think it’s something you might find helpful! Would love to discuss how we could work together. Loving your content, keep it up!

@@Milesinabox you got that accent

[@Milesinabox]

That accent is from Kenya

[@caribbeanvibez758]

Oh ok ok I'm looking out to get into the box truck business also

[@Milesinabox]

@caribbeanvibez758 do it.

[@chrisp3982]

I’ve heard it’s best to not let the forklifts go deep into the box but i assume it’s driver preference

[@Milesinabox]

Definitely. I didn’t like it at all but you got to make money somehow.
