      It’s 2023. Why save when there are lots of opportunities to earn more money 💰 online. Bank interests rates are so low.

      @@RitaMeyers-oc4leI completely agree with you. It’s better to have $100k invested in a platform where it can make 5-10% profits than have it in the bank making you 0.5% profits. It’s much safer to employ to aid of a professional trader/financial analyst to create safe investment plans.

      Personally I started investing last summer but it’s been a roller coaster. I’m finding it difficult to make sustainable profits consistently. I’m getting frustrated.

      @@StellaAlmiron No need to feel frustrated at all; there isn’t a lot of digestible quantitative analysis content out there and it takes some getting used to, that’s why I rather use the aid of a professional and so far it’s been a great ride.

      I just had my 8th profitable month investing with the aid and analysis of a Regulated Professional investor/trader. I started investing with about $10 000 USD and I just hit slightly above $120 000 USD two days ago. His help and expertise brings about lucrative results and they also help mitigate unforeseen mistakes.

    The Trucker’s Jamboree is in a week, Rex. Its a truck show, they usually block off for the show. I like their laundry and the showers are clean. I get some DQ ice cream and a blizzard 👍. Its a great place to take a 30 min break.

    I have watched several of your vids. I think you should consider training you would be an excellent trainer. I know because I was at flatbed in my day . Lots of work but the reward is great seeing a student rocket to the top. I know your trainer is proud to see how well you have done. Training you will have students quit/fail mostly because they just aren't cut out for the job/life style.

    Hey Rex, if you go to Spencer as much as I used to, you should bobtail to a place called The Prime Rib if you like a great steak and a great atmosphere. My trainer told me about it. It’s amazing and like I said, they are good with bobtail parking.

    If I have to go back to driving tankers, I prefer going back to hauling flammables and combustibles, the loading and unloading is quick and and rarely have to flush, the only time I had to flush is when I have to haul AVGAS or jet fuel, it’s an easy job.

  • @spongebobsquarepants9649

    Another awesome vid Rex. Quick question, when is the earliest and latest you get loaded and off loaded? All over the place like reefer or more 9 to 5 type hours like flatbed?

    • @truckingwithrex
      @truckingwithrex  Год назад +3

    Rex, FYI…. When you’re doing a trailer inspection in the app, you are putting info in that is not required for Tanker.
    A lot of the macros were created for reefer division before prime started hailing Tanker. You do not need, dirty inside, trash inside or lock. I do edible, I did not see if you answered Tanker hookup, drumming or pumping. Those are required. At least on this side. Stay safe

    Hello👋! Your company hires a driver with European experience❓ In the future I want to go to the USA🤝. I have 3 years of experience working in Europe with acids and toxic liquid products . My total work experience in Europe is 7 years 🚛. It is a pleasure for me to work with tankers. I have no experience working in the USA. But I think it's not a big difference. I like long trips and can work 4-6 months.

    YEARS AGO,
    There was a driver pulling a gasoline tanker. He dropped his fuel at an EXXON
    then, when he returned to his yard, he found he had left the door to the hose
    tube open & the hose was missing! Yeah, they fired him.
