Where is the big money at?

Nothing wrong with that system either. It is not for everyone just the same as having a payment. If you are not good with money and not good at being motivated to work then a truck payment is bad business. I will never go back to running older trucks for me. Plan is to have a payment until the last few years I work. I understand it is just part of the cost to run and input that in the numbers. I do not work any harder than most and do just fine. I think I have run around 7500 miles a month the last 3-5 months. Just pick the loads that pay instead of chasing.

 

To answer the OP’s question. If you want to make a million dollars in trucking start with 2 million.

 

I wouldn’t even call. If they have this kind of wiggle room it’s likely a 12-16 ft wide oversize.

 

He’s paid cash for everything except his two houses, plus he makes $120K a year in YouTube money, so I think he will be just fine.

 

120k with 161k subscribers ?! ... Lol

 

Socialblade has him at $60k on the high end. The question will be how many of his subscribers will stick around without any truck content.

 

I must have missed the part of the article you shared where it only dealt with what you haul. Also you didn’t specify that step deck contracts aren’t safe. I apologize for responding to something you shared and not having the ability to see you were only speaking for one segment of the industry.
