This was a great conversation! ❤
Great Interview/ and chat 👍🏼
What do parking have to do with the O/O $ $ Pockets the Rates are in the trash
He probably lives in a cushy house and only puts up a front that he cares.
How can anyone take him serious with the way he talks.
@@darylmc3570 🤣 🤣 🤣
Every nonprofits CEO.....
Or company is avoiding Brokers necessity due to AI.
There's enough technology to get rid of Brokers.
Question is this: Saving money by not using Brokers, where will that money go to???
$2 a mile has been the standard for 20 years. They dont even want to pay that now. Enough is enough.
Prices of everything has stockrocketed over past 20 years. Meanwhile trucking rates going lower and lower
let’s do this….come on brothers and sisters…we can stop for a month and change something, who’s in?
We need change in this industry
We can’t live by the 2 a mile standard anymore inflation is 30% watch them raise rates again. I run 10 trucks and to turn a profit isn’t hard but it definitely is not easy because we are scrapping the bottom of the barrel on rates. The brokers are keeping rates historically low because there’s to many trucks out here and it’s a simple supply and demand tactic they use on us. If it moves off boards fast next time they post it lower and lower till as low as possible and keep lowering the rate until we begin to reject it. It’s tough out here! God Bless Us Truckers out here providing for our families! God will take care of us !
@@nafakaboy Unfortunately people have bills and family's. Truckers dont stick together longer than a day or 2.
What really ruined the truck industry is youtube and people yapping they mouth encouraging everyone to get in the trucking industry now its over saturated plain and simple
Hes the type of person as an owner I try to avoid. People like this play both sides of the field.
He's definitely playing both sides. He plays politics, not 100% for owner operators.
I don't trust him. I got out of his Facebook page.
Lmao. Like you know me?
Far away
@@wmontimetruckingllc8001😂 he has your 🤡 self fooled - I see you brought a sticker 😂
These brokers out here robbing people.
Respect and support then stop using brokers. Take your time and approach shippers and open your own account. Every motor carrier can book their own loads with a shipper. They are not required to use a broker. The definition of as a broker is hiring somebody to do something that you could do for yourself. It's easy if you don't want to get robbed as you're saying don't use a broker
We have a big problem with people that are not smart in the industry and people take advantage of them
This is the guy that just got my bullshit Freight Guard removed. Thanks TNOOA
😂 you could have did that yourself
thats not hard to do. lol
Yup. These dumbass truckers need a savior for everything... No wonder they say loser trump is gonna save them 😂😂😂
Get everyone to stop moving freight fmsca will listen
We are strongly being outpaced by foreign drivers, and it's a growing trend. Consider that, even if people stopped moving freight to send a message, the replacements don't care about our plight and will continue to haul. It's an agenda backed by our government....everyone is happy for it, except for us American truck drivers, because everyone is benefitting from it.
Unity stand together for better wages for truckers
Can't happen. Government made sure of that. Government put 3 million foreigner drivers on the road in the past 3 year. This was planned.
What is going on in USA? It looks like everything is falling apart.
Broker makes more than shippers and carrier's with the less invested or risk
They definitely do not make more than the shipper
@@gtathletics912 As typical trying to retort with a red herring.
God bless your brain lol.
@@gtathletics912absolutely... It's like saying TQL makes more than P&G 😂😂😂
@@mahlz24 thats not my point. Shippers benefit from low rates as do brokers. Shippers generally accept the lowest bid they can
Mannn I thought I was just going to pop in and see what was going on and end up staying until the end. Awesome set 👏🏿👏🏿👍🏿👊🏽
Lost me on the $500 yearly fee and saying Pot Hole Pete is a good guy. He has taken off over 60% of his time in office.
I personally think he is not doing a good job myself, but I recognize that it's good with they build more truck parking
He thinks Pete butt plug is ok ? Jeezus everything is meant to demoralize us now.
There are so many Podcasts that want to do provide great content and might get caught in the something to believe this could be helpful. This Michael Boston Claims to have over 35000 registered truckers on his site that he provides service to. If that is the case, he is generating $17.5 "Million" annually. No way as his company is working out of a Shared Work space in NY. That does not add up and also the Name Dropping made it too obvious. another "Fake it , to Make it" case. Just need to Screen these guys.
I’m glad these 2 got together
you didn't post a link for your guest. I'm a life time memeber of OOIDA and never heard of this group.
TOONA On FB
Great interview! A lot of great info shared!
"1000 other guys will take the loads"...yeah, with Mexican plates on their trucks. Thanks, Joe.
12% cap on brokers would be more than fair
And when they cap carrier at 2 bucks a mile what is going to happen? Be careful what you wish for
You sound like a broker! 10%, nothing more!
@@Frank1776. You especially sound like a broker. How in the world did you pull something so stupid out of your cornhole?
@@Frank1776.that will never happen. We have real investments clown. Not like that would be much different then what you dirty drug addicts offer now.
@@Unduplicatable That should be about right..
The focus should seriously be pointed to the barrier of entry. in my opinion ONLY U.S Citizens should be allowed A CDL-A and Only U.S Citizens should be allowed to get Authorities . Many problems would be solved with this I believe .
You are absolutely right.. that’s the main problem.. But this country ( for what ever reason) strives on helping other people from other countries to come in the states and make a living.. we need to take care of are own first!!
I parked my trucks n opened my freight brokerage. I work from home, no rent, no diesel. I can tell you one thing, the Indians run any load at any rate. Broker transparency won't work because there's an inside agreement to DNU (do not use) any carrier that asks for it. Good luck folks.
Let’s work bro, I’m a owner operator
We just bitch, whine, and complain. And we will not just stand together. They aren’t scared of drivers apparently.
True facts brother
That's the truth
What’s keeping truckers from protesting to get things improved? Crappy wages and pay keep them from affording the time off to protest.
100k should be standard for company drivers
Thank you Alex both of you are preaching the truth more people four people need to hear what both of you are saying today❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great conversation guys. You covered some important points. You are absolutely right about what the foreigners are doing to the trucking industry. These foreigner trucking companies are trafficking people to drive in the USA for almost nothing. They put 3 guys in a truck and that truck is moving 24 hrs. a day. And these companies will haul these loads for a $1.00 a mile and making money.
I saw a 2020 with a million miles for sale and knew right away it was a 3 man truck
Why can't you also do that , but blaming someone who is smarter than you and making money . Yall blame foreign for your own sh!t
@@jasmuzik9183 smarter ? Yeah right. Most are dirty pigs washing their feet in the sinks at truckstops and using the parking lots for their bathroom. They drive like idiots, i see it everyday
Better to ignore jas, just an idiot trying to gaslight. Probably apart of a 3 man. Most likely doesn’t know trucking has any regulations either lol.
@@jasmuzik9183 😂 exactly....these Americans are such crybabies.... It's always the foreigners beating them at their own game
promoting more regulation is the wrong path..
You can tell he really wanted to say something negative about OOIDA
Lol
I was waiting for Michael to say "Fuggetaboudit".
This was a great conversation.
Ecuador 🇪🇨???? Nahhh big majority are from Western Europe… check on Illinois!!!!
You want to y we can’t park in some places here it is the trash and the piss bottle when I started driving we could stop and park on get off ramp and get on ramps it the trash just walk to where the back of your truck and look around when you do a pre trip when at the truck stop and fuel stops the trash is bad and then everyone wanderers y we have to pay for parking 🅿️ that’s just my opinion
Ngl I def have the 1 gallon bottle but I wait until I find a dumpster. I don’t want to make anyone else’s job hard.
OO are now cutting corners and not doing proper maintenance on the truck. It is also a safety issue
No alien drivers, no non American drivers on the roads of the USA.
Awesome!
You guys can cross yourselves and meet me so I don't have to meet you in USA for the 137 billion dollars a year in freight the single bridge crossing I use handles
You need Canadian and Mexican drivers also. Might wanna rethink that statement.
This is a great interview. Need more like this.
We need a law action lawsuit against the small towns. You can have handicap parking, but you can’t have truck parking again small towns, like hood river, for truckers are we a third class Citizen even though we pay .30+ cents per mile to drive through your state?
We Need to boicot the brokers one at the time.
With the caps for brokers we will start see only crappy loads... who stops you from becoming the broker? Who stops you from find direct costumers?
I am owner operator with my authority. Times are tuff but its okay...nobody cry when narket paid $10 a mile or more...
I liked the question the random guy asked and I like Mike's answer
Alex your boy started out a little shaky but he bounce back with some solid points! Excellent craftsmanship from Mutha Trucker! We need answers on the excess increase in insurance premiums!
The loadboards should have a rule for lane posting too, because like Landstar they have agents overseas and they pay them 20 30 dollars a day and these people are posting cheap loads on theses load boards without care for anyone
Thank you guys ❤
Alex, I think this has been one of the best reports I've ever watched. So informative❤
Wow, thank you!
I was offered an “agent” (broker) position and was told that they take 40% off the top right off, and I had to share the 60% with the trucker. 😐
And how much of that 40% is actual profit to the brokerage after the brokerage pays their wages, and other overhead expenses?
Great video 💯
Thanks 💯
Freight deregulation was done in the President Reagan administration, that is when it became an open freight rate bidding market instead of a minimum rate costs that is guaranteed profit margin.
P.S. remember to always base your rate of cost on your price of fuel. The cost of fuel is $4 you will need $3 a mile to make it. You can only operate a dollar under the fuel cost, anything less you are not making profit.
The bill was passed in 1980, and President Carter signed it into law. Senator Ted Kennedy was a big sponsor of Bill. The Kennedys always had it out for the Teamsters Union.
@@randyalt370 And the Democratic party learned how deregulation doesn't work. At least we can learn change. The "fair market" doesn't ever correct for anyone except the very rich.
It was really designed to stop strikes...1979 saw alot of death and violence from the strike. We will never be able to do that again...what do you think all those National Guard convoys are training for? They will just come in and move frieght, of course, without a union we'll never be that organized....we can't even agree on how to park at a fuel island.
@@nancyprovence109this is big cap
The situation is terrible right now 😢
Alex how you doing man would've been nice to ask the guy bout grieving lawyers advertising 18 wheeler crashes that needs to stop man !!
START NOT USING brokers starting with the A's maybe 10 at a time for one month. there are thousands out there, hit them in the pocket like they do us. By the time we get to the C's the others will get the hint and rates should go up. but we must stick together and stand strong. Need someone smarter on this internet stuff than I am. lol I'm just an old O/O but I think this would work!
So he’s a legal scammer
my scammer radar went off with hie first couple sentences.
I got a solution let’s not pay any taxes
We The People need to abolish the FMCSA, IRS, FBI, The Politicions for more then 4 yr terms and the get Social Security like the rest of America
Soooo many foreigners use the truck as house!!
Ive seen kids piling out of their trucks.
Came by good to see you Damian Frias Inc
Look at mega carrier class action lawsuits. Tells you who’s ruining pay for the industry.
Alex you need to go as hard as MB. Ijs real talk.
New authorities have no options! We are stuck with cheap freight! Has nothing to do with morals. I'm 6 weeks on my authority. I'm sitting on Denver right now, nothing available to me over 1.50!! Morals won't feed my family
My guy MB!!!
They ain’t help trucks out at all
Yall want broker transparency until someone finds out the truth of what shippers are paying and then create a brokerage and undercut all the brokers and lower rates even more.
Good interview, very transparent!
I want shippers not using Brokers to take most of that money and give it to truckers.
ITS THE TRUCKERS FAULT!!!!!! WE AS TRUCKERS DONT STICK TOGETHER!!!!!
The last question hit the nail on the head about the visitors been given CDLs and living in trucks
Load boards and brokers and trucking companies should not be able to use and hire any one from abroad on a temp work visa if they cant speak read fluant English they don't get a cdl ,
If you're not a us permanent resident green card holder or your not an American citizen you should not be aloud to get a CDL or drive a class A semi truck
“I’m mad they don’t got Sunkist orange soda over here” 😂
🙌🏽⚡️🙌🏽
People will complain about everything, the bigger picture is to Unite
We all providing for our loved ones
You got the guys with 10 kids, 2 hellcat payments, willing to drive for $1.50 a mile, work 20 hours a day, barely speak english, keeping the rates down. Then you have the ladder of Chinese immigrants and importers opening warehouses and hiring truck drivers for $25 an hour with the shittiest equipment expecting you to work 60 hours a week. Several used semi truck dealers closed in the Los Angeles area. Cant make money as an OO anymore unless you have connections inside giving you consistent high paying loads.
Ive been a port driver for the Los Angeles ports for 10 years and its going to hell. Most owner ops I know, including myself are all company drivers now. Im going back to college and getting an education. My back will not last another decade in this industry with this shit pay and work environment.
It should be a cap on brokers,and we should be able to see and verify paperwork
I don't think the system is broken; it just needs to be revised here. "§ 371.3 Records to be kept by brokers... The record shall show: (6) The amount of any freight charges collected by the broker and the date of payment to the carrier. " This is what needs to be changed to "(6) The amount of any freight charges collected by the broker and the date of payment to the carrier will be posted on the load board with carrier rate."
Literally if we all stop driving they will have no choice but to submit to us and raise the rates right now they are shitting on us
What is going on good friend
This was a great conversation
I think...we are looking at the situations from a difficult space..very complex...we need a hero...
Hi Alex
Head of marketing sounds like a public private organization, I think FMCSA is more of a corporate than a government entity because they are influenced by the mega carriers with donations.
These guys act tough until Pete tells them to Shut Up! They are not looking out for Truckers, they all have companies trying to make money from truckers. Trying to suck Pete’s ass for a Grant. This is a Sham and a Shame!!!
👍👍👍👍 yeah big uncle scam will save us. You got it right.
I'm a member of the national trucker association and I do say that I'm being harassed. I fill out applications for jobs. I was even told by a company that I don't qualify to be a truck driver.
I've been applying and looking for work for a while now. And every time that something goes wrong and somebody is changing informations and I say no, because I have the right to say no about it. They fire me.
So hopefully you guys do something about is. I'm also being harassed right now. And being locked down to the state of florida
Truck parking
Most states took the money
Rebuilt rest area buildings
NOT expanding truck parking
Its simple. Government isnt interested in trucking problems that wont make them money. That leasing taskforce comes with huge fines but the money goes to the government not the victims.
The answer to all this is to partner up with the fmcsa and the government create a site for computer and phones which serves as a broker and cut out the broker business
Don't like brokers?? Don't use em....easy fix...
Really really good interview, I waited months for an interview like this as a trucker! Fmcsa don’t get press/question enough!
But all them people want there shelves stocked
Remember wouldn't be companies without truckers it all started with 1 with a dream
Leading interview on this show so far.. trucking has destroyed so many young bright future… Alex I need an interview on this show as well… up next with me
What have they changed?
That was a great conversation, that guy knows what he’s talking about. But at the end of the day all it is is talk talk talk. You can call everybody in the FMC SA and talk all you want, and it goes in one ear and out the other. You’ve got to get a lawyer and sue their asses. That will get their attention. You need to get a show cause order to explain why they put off broker transparency until October. As he stated it’s in the 1980 D regulation act. And as I recall, trucking companies making contracts with shippers is also illegal because it’s a free market as per the 1980 D regulation act. I would also have that lawyer read through that act and pick out the things that I’ll be in violated by these brokers and shippers. This might cause a couple hundred dollars but it’s well worth it. But it’ll be a cold day in hell before any truck driver spends money to help the industry.
We have to request from FMCSA to close brokers and dispatch services out of USA territory.
Forget that Lawless... FMCSA, is making tow truckers show their fees!
Make BROKERS show their fees as well!!
Brokers and trucks succeed with each other. Just need a fairer split.
Michael Boston, great guy, been following him a couple of years. I call him Jimmy Hoffa 2.0
The answer is BROKER ( REGULATION !)
I’m wondering why he never talked about 49cfr371.3
😂😂😂
I'm a company driver...if I make more than owner ops...it's not enough...so sad
I like the idea of a SRO
The insurance for me was ten thousand dollars more than the insurance that I paid for
The fmcsa needs to be replaced with 4 new entities one to regulate trucks , one to regulate load boads , one to regulate brokers and one to regulate commercial vehicle insurance
I agree, we have too many people that also have older equipment with no payment and no knowledge of what it takes to run a business. They just take it to make enough for their weekly expenses without knowing that the payment is a 1/3 of the actual lane rate
lol dude wtf are you talking about? its more likely the guy who overpaid for his truck and has huge truck payment that is taking the cheap freight. I have an old truck and guess what? I don't like price on a load I don't haul it because I don't have to. NO PAYMENTS means MORE FREEDOM.
That’s great you know how to run your business, I didn’t say everyone
@@angelchoto4951my weekly expense is $115/wk .... Why, I pay $450/on full MC insurance w/$250K cargo ..truck & trailer paid off... And no, I do not run on $1/mile. Brokers actually pay what I ask for, else their load sits. You need to rethink your "weak ass argument"
All owner operators should sit for 2 weeks.
yeah you do that so I can make all the money from it...
@@pokerman9108 your exactly why it wouldn't work
Both of youz is wack
@@El.Pelavacas_Van-Lines yo momma
Truckers need to stop being a taxi service.
Do away with the factoring you move a load it should be paid for when you get it done and yes the brokers are taking more than they should..
Passing on to the owner Operator
