What's the best 3 car hauler?

$0.85cpm pper car. i make about $1800 per trip up and $1500 down the east coast in a 3 day work week -800 in fuel = $2500 take home. there are plenty more loads there but im not greedy,

 

Phew, ok you had me scared for a minute there LOL. 85 cpm per car is pretty good pay and hard to usually find.

 

That's not a hard to find rate on the east coast.

 

Sometimes it is, your riding up 95 and you see 50 million car haulers traveling up with you only means 1 thing....................they all have to come down with a load lol. why i get my load for the return trip before i leave. Yeah SemperFI I dont run my truck like a clown lol, you have a larger truck as well so you know what your equipment should be making.

 

Northbound rates can get tough sometimes, I was more thinking westbound. ..

 

If I go off of CD or carsarrive I'll be lucky to get between 60 and 70 cpm, uship can actually pay more, because the rates haven't been watered down by brokers

 

and its funny because when the ycall you saying "oh Seth i have a great hauling deal for you.....im like yeah? and he says take a car from jacksonville FL to Washington DC for 300!!!" im like you can go suck on some DEF and stop calling unless you have paying loads. He insisted that i just push it up and ride with it. Now we are talking about a car not an extra box of toilet paper (which is what most of the cars i haul is) the nerve of these brokers lol

 

I'm interested in getting statrted and you guy's have given some good advice. I'm looking at mostly staying local but i'm having a hard time on which trailer i should go with and what kind of truck. I was looking at buying a 08 Silverado 2500HD and a 3/4 car hauler. Any adivce guys

 

A local has a 5th wheel trailer (car hauler) for sale. Troutman, NC. I can find out his info if interested.

Here's my advice, and I'm not being a smart ###, just a realist- A 3/4 TON WILL NOT SAFELY RUN A 3 CAR WEDGE!!!!! Hell everytime I see even a 1 ton single rear wheel I want to pull the driver out and slap him. Too much can go wrong with only 2 tires under that much weight. It doesn't matter how big of a tire you put on it- it if blows you will be sideways on the freeway. If you can't afford AT THE VERY LEAST a 1 ton, don't get into a 3 car. I went from a 1 ton to a single axle tractor for VERY LITTLE- and not only is it safer, but I got someplace to sleep comfortably and I no longer worry about my RA weight.
