Nice trailer! quick suggestion; Get yourself a second set of keys for your truck, toolbox etc to keep in your pocket at all times so you can stop at rest areas or anywhere else really and leave the engine running to keep the a/c running and lock it up. Its an old truckers trick which I use even on my 2 personal trucks-a '99 F350 & an '08 Ranger.
Hey bro, keep making your videos because, Im making a deal on a 2023 trailer in the state of Missouri and when you did the review on this Norstar trailer.. I went over to the Ward Brothers website and looked on their site. Saw the trailer that you have and also another trailer with the mega ramps. In the same price range that I was just about to purchase. May even get a discount from that trailer due to your video. I'll keep you posted. Keep grinding. Frank out of Kansas
so you're saying you're GVWR is 14,000 for the trailer and 10,000 for the truck but I was told you could only be 26,001 lbs total truck trailer and load??? this means you can only have a 2001 LB load???
So GVWR is different than your curb weight. Your GVWR is what DOT will look at to make sure that you are under 26,001 pound if you are non CDL. So if I go to a weigh station and weigh my truck and trailer and it comes out to 17,000 pounds then that means I can pull 9,000 pounds as non cdl. 26,000 - 17,000= 9,000 if I’m correct
That’s correct! Also, DOT officials will look at your Trailer Registration to ensure you are not in violation of the trailer “Carrying Capacity”. So…. Empty Weight + Carrying Capacity = Trailer Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). I hope this makes sense.
Hahaha got it
How do o catch loads it’s hard starting out with your mc number bring fresh
Yeah it is but you can reach out to TQL (total quality logistics) for a carrier package. They accept brand new authorizes.
Thanks for posting cause I’m learning the business.
@@politicalmavenDC thanks for the support
Hood much weight could you pull to stay non CDL with your truck and that trailer
10,000 lbs
what is your total weight truck and trailer before load and whats just the weight of the trailer

Got you! Yeah I definitely need a second set
Does your 2500 ram have helper airbags or you just on factory springs
It’s lifted from an aftermarket kit
😂😂😂 “the sad music when you tried unlocking to lock box”
😂 I laughed at that as well
“Gotta cut that out” 😂
Nice video and good content. You really got a nice deal on your trailer! Wishing you all the best going forward.
Thanks for your support and feedback
That was a good deal, bro. Please can you send the website used to search for your trailer
Link is in the description

Thanks Frank for this comment! I’m happy for you. Let me know on what trailer you end up buying
@@corntv1107 Sure will
I saved an additional $1000 on my trailer. Because of your videos.. The total cost saving was $9000. Thanks!
@@franklingiles7569 That’s what’s up. Congratulation on your purchase and saving. Now it’s time to start getting loads

Thank you for the confirmation and clarity. Much needed
Let's see the tow rig!
Oh you want to see the tow hitch? No problem
@corntv1107 The "Tow rig" is what you tow the trailer with.
I got you on the next video
😂😂 the sad music had me dying 😅
😂
Nice
Thank you
