Yeah I wanna go OTR but I'm gonna need my weekends off. Like what are you guys talking about

[@ridingwithkev5560]

[@lHeartApple]

Then you're better off doing regional.

[@ssgsilverback1053]

Starting KNIGHT Transportation CDL school on Monday. Thank you for all your content, it helps. GOD speed and safe travels...!!!

[@kingl5523]

U still doin it?

[@cwstreeper]

I carry a spare mudflap in my tool box for just such occasions. Like you said, trucking is gonna throw issues at you every day, but we drive through and keep on trucking!

[@ridingwithkev5560]

We do. But it makes us better

[@bryansalter7883]

My phrase for this one it just takes a little want to!!! 👍🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@OfficerLarryNMSE]

Love your pooch, a dog always make a good video great... Safe Journeys

[@toddwhite7752]

Go to Walmart and get 4 bottles of anti gel and a big Red bottle of 911..Always good to keep in cold weather..Low today up home -54 windchill and -18 high...Stay safe keep up the hard work

[@ridingwithkev5560]

How far out of my mind it was, my wife works for a company that makes the stuff (non retail, direct to customers) and I didn't think to have her get me some lol

[@seekpeaceread6798]

The doggo is like why r u talking to the device😄😄😄

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Lol

[@pogveteranar9415]

Thanks for the video. I applied for south central flatbed with Prime and am currently scheduled for orientation the 28th.

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Man that’s awesome they got you in.

[@airbornetrucker9464]

Awesome sauce! Glad you’re still kicking, 🐢💨💰

[@ricksrandomrepairsandrevie9611]

Nice shirt, I have the same one.......really enjoy your personality and information.......as a cdlA holder with a full time teaching job, I have always followed the industry......just can’t leave my 9 month job a year and pay yet.

[@rogerg0834]

thanks for providing a real-world example of how to do it and make extra $$$!!!!!!👍

[@williamweck7087]

Hey! I’m in STL! Lots of snow this week and snow expected next week

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Snowed when I was there last week and when I went through today

[@davidgrant2772]

I'm hoping to come to Prime soon for Flatbed but I live in Maine. Is there a lot of freight that comes even close to this area? I'm considering going through Prime's training program as I already have my Class A Permit.

[@ridingwithkev5560]

I honestly don’t know. I have been there but couldn’t answer how often. Prime typically finds a way

[@jamesharper7398]

Good ole dust pit Rotan yard mule still ripping off the flaps

[@ridingwithkev5560]

All the time

[@atruckersworld7989]

There was a Green Prime Inc flatbed involved in the Ft Worth pile up on I-35

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Yeah saw that

[@jorrick66]

Thought I saw you hauling pipe northbound on 55 the other day

[@ridingwithkev5560]

No sir. I haven’t been out that way in a few weeks

[@flatbedladyv2191]

I would have changed the mud flaps myself too!!!

[@Conway7]

I’m currently OTR, I’m looking to go to TX regional, can you offer me any information on regional?

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Definitely got me home on the weekends. You have to hustle to get your loads in for sure

[@dannygregg3906]

People out here we'll just not like it used to be. A lot of driver's say it's all part of the job. But in reality if they had to do the stuff we did just to keep running. He'll they would probably cry you hear me?

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Yes sir

[@Setupjustsoicancomme]

Lol those other drivers definitely never did a swap at a DC with TMC, half the struggle of the swap is finding an empty that has all her mudflaps 😂😂😂

[@mrcain6894]

Thanks for giving us some Penny.

[@NLD88000]

Don't forget to join the prime lawsuit your payout some are getting 40k

[@dwaynez1747]

I'm heading to prime inc March 8th and going flatbed

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Welcome. My buddy just started as a trainer

[@baltazarluna2372]

Hey buddy what's up how you doing? Just watch your video today Thursday. I just tested Wednesday here at prime,I trifecta and wanted to know is flatbed good in Texas ? Iam from Laredo tx .

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Laredo is awesome we have several dedicated customers and a drop yard

[@ridingwithkev5560]

I will say there is a lot of freight but a lot of trucks so the pay isn't insane but there seems to always be freight

[@robertsmithjr.5839]

Prime or Western Express for inexperienced driver? **Regional flatbed**

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Prime or TMC in my opinion are much better.

[@robertsmithjr.5839]

@@ridingwithkev5560 oh ok

[@johnnybarahona5989]

Would you recommend texas dedicated for company drivers or otr in order to make good money?

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Texas dedicated has a great fleet manager. Spring and summer definitely make good money. Solid work being dedicated when it's slow as well

[@JV-dm4ox]

@@ridingwithkev5560 I'm currently reefer OTR with prime. Do you think I'd get home more often on this dedicated account. I live in south Texas

[@lonewolf6368]

Hey does prime take new drivers?

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Yup

[@Will.Rondo9]

I’ll be at prime next month. Leasing is it possible to net $1500- $1800 ?

[@ridingwithkev5560]

It is possible for sure not guaranteed as there are several factors.

[@Will.Rondo9]

@@ridingwithkev5560 yea I’m coming from Melton I made 1300-1500 pretty consistently there. I want to make 15-1800 at prime if possible. Hopefully I will . Thanks for the reply

[@adamvediz8495]

I know one thing, TMC would never pay us for anything above and beyond lol. Prime sounds like a good company

[@ridingwithkev5560]

Part of being lease vs company. They know I wouldn't do the load so they make it worth our time

[@adamvediz8495]

@@ridingwithkev5560 I’m lease at TMC and you know how that goes here lol

[@dexboatner7978]

@@adamvediz8495 is it bad?

[@adamvediz8495]

@@dexboatner7978 no, i have a good fleet manager. TMC is a great start for both company and lease.
