Loads are about 25k pounds up and about 18 on the way back on average. I have 2 65 gallon tanks. I'm in Alabama in flat ground as well. Traffic is relatively light compared to Indy.

[@JimGetten]

Nice video. Great advice and, as the economy continues to decline, the opportunities to take contract dedicated direct loads from shippers will increase. Small and large fleets alike are shuffling their driver rosters to eliminate the marginal producers and those with sketchy CSA scores. Do your homework about the area you want to run in and spend some time calling on whatever shippers you want to haul for. If you present yourself properly and sell your service you will find good freight. If you are new to the business find a solid, reliable broker and do a good contract with them. They need your service to sell. The trucking industry is an ever-changing challenge and opportunity to 'do-your-own-thing'. THAT is where the real money is! Don't give up because there is an enormous amount of opportunity in America even during a recession.

Every time you haul a load save that number, PU & del on time, call them every week, you do good work they'll start calling you.

That 2nd load going back home isn’t guaranteed... You dam sure couldn’t do that in New York. The tolls and parking tickets alone will cut you in half.

Complete honesty video brother god bless you .want you to succeed more in Trucking

[@SLIM-iz3kl]

Bro I admire you. That is what I would like to do for myself I was discouraged about getting a day cab but watching this I feel optimistic about it.. I wish I could talk to you more about doing something like this and getting started bro.. Stay safe and continue to do good

[@PWDMaximum]

I've been saying this my whole life since I found out about trucking and its income. EVEN IF YOU DONT WANT TO BE A TRUCKER, get a cdl as backup in case your life goes down the shitter. Trucking will put you back where you need to be with hard work. I've known truckers making like 150k a year and they dont have to work consecutive weeks. Saturday Sunday off. Of course this is all as a owner but working for companies doesnt kill this idea either.

[@PWDMaximum]

@@brooksteer5629 well this was during the load price record last year. Even so 80k or anything around that range is good

[@MrWisdom79]

@@brooksteer5629 nobody quotes their income as net income Skip, company or owner operator.

[@TheBLACKMQQN]

Business owner vs truck driver. 💪You got a good thing going there.

Amen be able to make money from any business is really a gift from God.Many people tend to think that it's only because you work hard that you make money with any Job.Money and blessing come from heaven.Someone will try the same business and will make nothing because it's not his call.
