LMAO on the new hat!! I like the way they did the lettering in red white and blue one the logo. Must feel good to see the green light at the scale house. Tanks for another great video!!!
Would you believe in all the years I've been driving, and yes it's a lot, since 1979, I have never been DOT checked during a blitz. Not once. Including this week. But, having said that, as long as you have your s**t together, a blitz shouldn't worry you. I'm always ready for a DOT check. It's called being safe. Just like you strive to be.
I always question why it is so dam hard to get in heavy hauling… I been flatbeding for 3 years now .. How can you get experience when no one wants to hire you ????
I think the problem right now is there just isn't enough freight for HH So companies are hesitant to bring in new blood for fear of making the freight to thin and scaring off the older guys. Keep plugging away my friend you'll get there. Just need this market to turn so the frieght is ready for you.
You could sign on with a company that has the oversize/heavy frieght running flat or step for them and try to position yourself into the right place at the right time.
I'm paid off percentage of load. I get my percentage of whatever I book the load for. My opinion it's the best way to be paid for HH. Some days it gets you but overall I think it's the best way for flatbed in general to be paid.

Lol tanks!! Your killing me! Lol
Thanks for the video. Blitz week was always interesting.
Yes it is! Bottom line for me is I take care of my equipment so I don't get to nervous during these things.
I have been in Amsterdam 1st time and I love it. I hope to see that place again

Ghost sure does look sharp
She's kinda dirty this week but she definatly gets the looks.
Like your videos keep up the great work
Thank you!!
I saw fewer DOT this week than I normally do. Got the bypass at the scales all week.
I agree. Other than Ohio today which should have been after the blitz. Saw 4 on 71 between Columbus and Lodi.
I run 75 from Dayton to Cincinnati, then 71 to Columbus, 70 to Zanesville, then back to Dayton. I saw 2, and none in the usual locations. Be safe.

How do you get paid? Pounds per mile?

By the way what are those red flags for....
They are required to be on the load at all 4 corners or widest position of the load.
It’s a shame a lot of truck drivers are very inconsiderate, and do not take pride in anything
No doubt. Makes us all look bad. Frustrates me
@@PatriotSpecialized yes, it frustrates me to no end.
