    A few weeks ago he was doing a live feed on youtube and i asked him how long he has been driving and he responded with some bs less then a lifetime and longer then a day. I then asked again can you be more specific and he got annoyed and said you can ask all you want then ignored me.

    Strange. Anyway i was asking because i know some dudes have less then a year exp and act like they have all the answers. I like to watch experienced drivers and get info from them. Anyway i think he has been driving for less then a year by going through his videos. Guess that's why he got upset because he knows he doesn't have enough time in to give people advice but he does. He posted a video standing next to a 2017 jaguar f type which is a 100k car that's why i'm curious if dude is a fraud.

    He looks like a douche bag. He's definitely a phoney. When you're his size you shouldn't be giving fitness advice.

    I know a guy like that and he's a fraud. He's a owner-operator driver that's poor. He joined a dating/marriage website and has a picture of himself standing at the front door of a mansion. His real house is in a poor neighborhood and was built probably in the 1950's. Has an old raggedly mobile home in the backyard he calls a clubhouse for parties and entertaining guests. It's actually used for storing old truck parts and other junk.

    I watched a few of his video's, and asked him some questions on FB. He apparently worked for Prime for about 10 months in the flatbed division. He claims he quit over "huge problems, which made hundreds of drivers quit", He also claims he knows people at every company, and then got sucked into the DART lease drama and is now getting sued by them? Dude has 3 kids, and is always drinking coke and eating junk in his videos. Never has videos of him backing up or driving, so idk.

    I couldn't watch the video. His voice!

    But, I wanted to tell the OP: To give advice doesn't require a set amount of time... Just a bit of knowledge that can be shared.

    It can be a total solution or a little step to ease an already established process. A different perspective can be helpful. If you take the attitude that someone with very little experience has no value to share, you may miss out on something great.
     
    Ooops, DRAGON64 and JReding Thank this.

    Standing in front of a Jaguar is no proof of ownership.

    EDIT: Sorry I mis-read your post. Of course you said driving, not owning. I'm sorry for the confusion.
