Hey been watching you awhile now maybe 6 months and I have to say after driving everything else for 8years and you inspired me to try flatbed and now I'm addicted and dont want to pull anything else thank you for showing me this world

Glad to see still moving things to Williston. Things still turning up here

Man that’s some good editing skills you got! Keep up the hard work and may God watch over you and keep you safe.

[@craigd.4768]

20 to 287 is one of my favorite shortcuts, but only if weather permits. Good call, it is still a pretty trip. Have fun!

[@jacobpeck1523]

I really do enjoy watching you secure different loads. I like to learn different ways.

[@paulinenjoroge1914]

From Kenya.Great job👍 Good editing skills.

[@jaques6601]

Thanks for sharing Brother! Here in Brazil we road about 900km a day about 530 Miles, our roads are in really bad shape and driving at night is like asking to be robbed and loose the your truck. Good Luck Bro! Take Care!

Steppin your production game up!!!! NICE content!! Stay safe out there!!!

[@DrivenTrucking]

Thanks!

[@LegacyFarmandHomestead]

Is it just me or do flatbedders always seem like the happiest and healthiest drivers? Pretty much opposite of reefer, lol.

[@mattberg916]

Because reefer warehouses need a serious attitude adjustment... the Louisville slugger kind.

[@topdoglogistics1406]

My company is flatbed, no stress 99% of the time. Most I’ve waited was 2 hrs. We are mostly happy and healthy.

[@krisbryant7100]

Are you trying to win an Oscar with this video?..lol the edit was on point & fun. Stay safe my friend. Oh yeah loved the chicken coop breakdown.

[@DrivenTrucking]

lol, thanks Kris, I was just trying to put out the best video I possibly could 👍🏻

Driven Trucking you’re welcome

[@user-ke5yb5mj3x]

WOW that editing was totally on point!! Very impressed!!!

[@DrivenTrucking]

Thanks! My videos may come out slower however I’m going to stick to this level of quality

[@user-ke5yb5mj3x]

Quality over quantity!!! Then when you step back and watch your own masterpiece your gona be grinning ear to ear 😎👍🏻 I’m in the process of learning editing. Trying to learn some cool techniques with the drone footage. I’m definitely a rookie but I’ll get better. I threw together a quick 3 min video with some of the drone footage I’ve gotten over the last week or so. It definitely needs work but I’ll probably just post it as is

[@DrivenTrucking]

THE ROGUE KNIGHT SHOW yep, the quality makes a big difference 👍🏻 keep at it, it takes a while to get there but it’s definitely worth it.

[@patricknorton7851]

Another good video and great editing. Really enjoy what you’re doing. Stay safe and keep up the good work.

[@DrivenTrucking]

Thanks Patrick

You love working the hardest part of the country for freight. You can make more money and have less downtime if you stayed in the Midwest/SE/SC.

You killed it on this one . Good work

Hi first time watching your video👌hello from anglesey north wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@rightlane4960]

Great video! Super cool sequence. Chaining, strapping, tarping and securing is why you make $5 a mile!

[@DrivenTrucking]

I appreciate it

[@rightlane4960]

@@DrivenTrucking Wait, do you really make $5 per mile?

[@DrivenTrucking]

Right Lane lol, no sir, my rpm at the moment is in the tank

[@rightlane4960]

[@kennethg5460]

Truth is teamster union local driving jobs pay more than OTR company drivers. Owner operator businesses make great money but you live in your truck and spend weeks away from home. Heavy equipment mechanics with experience can earn over 100k a year,full benefits,and sleep in their own beds every night. Hvac techs can start their own businesses, workout regularly and date. Go to tech school guys(Hvac,welding,diesel mechanics,electrical,) invest in rental real estate, stocks, and start businesses that do not require you to live in a rig alone, no gym, no women, no life.

[@rogergoff5874]

Brian To help with loads, check out a section of DAT solutions called Trendlines" ". It shows a map of the United States and it gives national rates for different types of equipment, as with you a step deck. Shows national rates for dry van , reefer and apparently some of the freight brokers are using it to help set rates with shippers. So check it out. But when I saw this on this brokers web site, flat bed and step deck were hot in mid west. So you up against the weather it looks like. Stay safe. If you talk to Sammy, ask him to get some yetti coffee mugs made with. Make Cents on them for his merchandise store. You too. Maybe get some merchandise going. Any way.....Get ur Done!!

[@mikeleggiero2524]

Last month was a little slow only 22g gross but only worked 18 days. 3 week off did hurt should gross close to 50 g for the first 2 months 7 days vacation this month to. We have a team that work for there 13% you have to tell them for time off or they have a load to move. Be safe grasshopper

Wicked cool video!!! Stay safe out there!!

Thanks!

[@MrStingray186]

I hear ya about that part of the country trying to make miles. I have a spa/hot tube run 3 times a month to Butte/Bozeman and Helena and it can be wild in the winter. Most of the time I get a backhaul of paper out of Usk Wa. back to SoCal which makes it even worse in the winter (mountains). I've had to chain three times in one day and only run 250 miles

Haven’t came across a video yet but maybe you have one. What are the perks of Owner Operator vs working for a Company. Know you almost have your truck paid off, but without a company how does 401k, health insurance, and stuff like that work.

[@jakegoble2213]

Just came from WILLISTON yesterday with my SD I got a load moving an oil rig for 3.76 a mile to Denver they still have loads be on the lookout

Fantastic, thanks!

[@railfanjames7699]

What is your personal favorite truck? Mine has to be the Peterbilt 389 with a 6-7 Cummins. I don't think they have a 6-7 Cummins anymore as an option. If I had to go for a truck I go for a 2015 Kenworth T680. With a Caterpillar C15 diesel

[@DrivenTrucking]

That’s a tough one, I love all the hood trucks. If I had to pick one, it would probably be a Peterbilt 389 flat top with a 6NZ 😍🤤

[@railfanjames7699]

@@DrivenTrucking I love the sounds of a 6nz! The C15 diesel sounds really cool, too.

When you drive like 100 feet away from cameras left behind, do you park ahead and run back in your cowboy boots in the snow to retrieve your camera, lol?

[@DrivenTrucking]

Lol, yes I do 😂 creating videos is fun and weird at the same time
