Real hotshot freight can be pretty light and some 5th wheel RV's weigh over 20,000 lbs . Running unloaded half the time in the RV industry is pretty easy on a truck also but you don't get paid for that .

My first truck was bought used. It became a bottomless pit. I would go out for a week and then home for a week to repair it. I owed money on it and rolled it on to this truck loan. It meant a little longer.
Then the freight got good and I was putting on more miles than I planned each year.
Good news. It is paid for this summer. May only work 3 weeks each month or just 3 days each week.Nottoway Thanks this. -
Living in eastern Virginia, RV hauling isn't an option for me. I'm trying to get info on LTL or hotshot trucking. I'm willing to purchase whatever type of rig that I need. I can always drive initially for a local regional carrier (I have my Class A CDL with all endorsements and experience from many years ago). Just thinking I'd enjoy driving a little lighter and smaller rig rather than tracking down shippers and receivers in big cities with a condo tractor and 53' van. -
Nottoway Thanks this.
