I know this is an old video, but due to my own situation, just came across it. Brandon, any video I've seen of yours seems to be very informative and it is appreciated! I just wanted to clarify about the boc-3 for anyone who reads this. This is actually one of the only things that you're actually required to use a third party to have it filled out and submitted to fmcsa. Good thing is it's only a one-time expense and usually the service can be found for ~$30-50.
