More information please

Can someone point me in the direction of more information on car hauling? I've read about everything I can find. I'm sure there's more out there though. I'm familiar with the trucking rules and all the general truck info. Looking for more specific material. Also what are the 1 ton wedge guys tagging there trucks at weight wise? Im sure alot of the veteran drivers have made some connections that they don't want to give out but are there any brokers I could get with within a days drive of Cincinnati. I'm also curious how many days alot of guys work. Heard a fee say they work a 3-4 day week and others seem to be hitting alot of hotels. Thanks

I appreciate the replies. Nascarchuck do you work off central dispatch mainly, local auctions or do you have customers? That's a bunch of hours to put in but nice to see you get some home time. I had the same thing in mind for myself.

I know I'm probably gonna catch all kinds of hell for this comment but I'm not looking to live off this income. If it turns in to a full time career that would be great. But it will start as more of a hobby that will hopefully at least pay for itself. I'd like to stay under the 26k and maybe even stay intrastate just to keep it a little more simple. I don't think it will help all that much though.

I was hoping that getting paid to haul the cars would cover insurance. I was quoted right under 5k a year through progressive. That's staying within 300 miles. 1 million liability and 100k cargo.

Right now I'm thinking of addind a wheel lift, hauling an RV out and bring a car back. Already talked to the recruiter. He said that would not be a problem. The recruiter wouldn't steer me wrong would he? Haha. When figuring all my operating expenses I only add insurance, fuel and set a little aside for maintenance. I don't add truck payment as I have it weather I'm hauling or not. I love to drive but I can't give up my main source of income, would be quite a pay cut. This as about as close as I can come to hauling.
