My grandmother used to say: "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". You have a wise old head on young shoulders, onwards and upwards! 🇺🇸🏴👍
That price sounds about right. My 48 foot spread was about that amount but that was about 17 years ago. I’m sure my specs would be over $150,000 today.
Thank you for sharing every step in your trucking journey, as usual. $135,650 plus is a lot of money. Now is a good time to put out some merch to ease the blow 😉. One thing we've learned from you is that you're prepared for the final tally. Keep pushing ahead. Stay safe young brother and God bless you 💪🏿✌🏿 🙏🏿.
I see it, but I don't believe it, it's under an hour, hell, under 30 minutes! Congratulations! I love it when a man has a plan and works it to perfection.
Hey my brother… Great seeing another one of your videos. Sounds like you have an awesome trailer being made. Big loot but it will be looking 👀 great just the way you like your equipment looking. Money well spent because she will definitely pay for herself in the long run. Continue to keep your eye 👁️ on the prize and I pray for your utmost success. Your dedication is noteworthy. I will continue to monitor your future endeavors. Glad to see you home for awhile!!! 😂 Forever success my bruh!!! 🙏🏽👍🏽👏🏽💯 Coy
Nothin but motivation 💪🏾 and glad you got a fixed spread those sliding spreads dont give that look like the last axle slammed to the back real outlaw vibe 🔥
12 foot spread is from center of one axle to the other. Nice spread! You’ll be alright with a front lift. I’d prefer rear but as long as one lifts you got lots more maneuverability
I like the whole idea on the trailer fam. But i do believe if you go with 9 lights on top of the reefer and 9 on the back doors of the reefer out the gate, would make your job a lot easier for later on. Drilling wholes into the stail top rail aboge the doors is rough 😂 speaking from experience.
if i bought a new great dane i would look into poly scuff rail with recessed bolts instead of the aluminum inside the trailer on the bottom . that aluminum where it bolted to the floor always gets torn up after a few years from pallets ripping the bolts out.
I have dura brights on my spread axle and I really like them, you just have to sprey wax on them every now and then and wipe it off. Also the disc brakes are nice but you’ll find your rims will get dirty faster than with drums.
@@InterstateMadeMe That's major bro and I've been rewatching your videos and I get excited because you've done put the work in to get to where you're at.
Sounds like it is going to be nice. Do you mind saying why you chose a Carrier over the Thermo King? The Thermo Kings in my experience and from everything I hear are a better more reliable unit
7500 x4 is the best unit on the market that’s my opinion I’ve had nothing but good luck with em. There easy to service and has no emissions and they are a work horse.
Bro I have been here since day one. I love that you always include cost. I have been looking at at the least getting my own truck to haul for my current carrier Tyson foods because I know they pay well because they have atleast double the amount of owner ops to company drivers! I want a 375 at the least but I really want a 389 but the time out isn’t the issue the cost is! What do you do to get around that bro? Any help counts. Thank you brotha 😊
Great video! In your experience, what are the most important factors to consider when budgeting for maintenance on a reefer after the first 14 weeks OTR? Were there any unexpected expenses that surprised you the most?
No unexpected expenses but I always plan for the worst so I’m never blindsided by a brake down. But luckily the whole 14 weeks we only had to pay for a leak to get fixed
@@InterstateMadeMe That's a good answer. I just created such a software so that all expenses and income can be calculated in one place. If you are interested, I could tell you more about the software
Congratulations on your built what made you go 34 inch over the 24 inch king pin settings the 34 might be a little too deep 24 will sit just right without eating your mud flaps up
@@prestonrubin94 it’s funny you say that cause I was going over everything last week. And I changed my kingpin setting to a 24 from a 30 I don’t know where the 34inch came from I’m not sure if I said that. I was going to go 18 but I kept it at 24 💪🏾
@@InterstateMadeMe gotcha I probably didn’t catch that part but a 24 inch is pretty standard better clearance and won’t eat up mud flaps or tear up fenders I wouldn’t run anything over a 30 inch unless you want to replace mud flaps and have clearance issues cause even a 30 inch you won’t have clearance if you turn unless you have a long 5th wheel slide slid all the way to the back
@josephstroud-oj6tj 48 yes, but 53 no.. violates king pin laws. i mention this because interstatemademe said the rear axle will be all the way at the back.. that will be more than 40ft from the kingpin. "The center of the rear axle on all trailers must be at the 40-foot mark or shorter and must not weigh over 34,000 pounds on the trailer axles."
@@Epowerment360 you can load 40k on a spread axle instead of 34k. All you would have to do in Florida is buy a $20 oversized permit every year & California doesn’t pay enough to worry about their ridiculous “rules”
Just a question I got a spread with a 24” and not a 30” kingpin setting did you think about going with a 24”? I think the 24” makes it better on weight
Yes I’m selling the old trailer and I was very profitable the 14 weeks. And RUclips is a monthly pay so you have to get real views to get real money I’m just a little guy

A fixed spread on a 53 ft reefer? Young blood. With that long wheelbase Pete? Consider a sliding spread. All roads are not straight! 😢
Dumps and lifts will will take care of us
