The BEST Hotshot truck

didnt know their is a difference if you have the bed on/off the truck. interesting!

What about the operration cost between f450 and Chevy 4500.... are they similar? Thanks

May be a dumb question but my brother was setup in the business but went belly up. He deactivated his DOT number and has been deactivated since 2021. I am getting into the business, can I reactivate his DOT and change company name and owners name??

Would a 4x4 chassis cab f450 work?

What about a freightliner M2?

What about the DEF SYSTEM for the Dodge 3500 6.7 Cummins.... What truck does better for Def system

Hello and greetings. Wish you a Good business. İs 300 horsepower truck enough for hotshot towing? Or need more

I have never seen a any ford hotshotting I only see ram 3500 or the 4500

What year of f450 do u recommend?!

Lies lies Ford is not a reliable truck over Ram if that was the case why their not used over the Ram

😆

Then you need a class A CDL

RAM 3500s put my sister out of business.

I can agree with this. My brother has a ram 3500 diesel and i bought a ram 2500. The 2500 has been in tbe shop more than 5 times and i had to run his 3500. The 3500 pulls better but it also blew something with the transfer case when going through snow and ice in Utah. I tbink im going back to Ford! Had 2 (f150 and f250) and havent had a problem with either. Even with thr f250 being a 6.0

God Bless You Sir.

Totally disagree ..... f-450 can't do much more than f-350 or 3500's .... just because it has heavier axles doesn't mean crap

Why does nobody use Duramax

is it legal or the same to add aftermarket air ride to a trailer?

Good info man I just about bought the dodge....makes sense

what’s the limit to be in “non cdl”? i think begging in conteneur hauling, but i don’t know with truck and trailer (roll of) searching to bee in non cdl. can you help me please?

Thanks for sharing. Preciate ya.

If a v8 diesel was anything to be TALKED about.....it would be in a semi. 6 in a row is meant to tow. Period. Every big truck has an inline 6. Every truck will do the JOB but an inline 6 is FARRRRR more reliable after 150k miles (which you will achieve in 1.5 years) i would never ever use a v8 configuration for hotshot or any other job that requires TOWING. you will never ever ever see a powerstroke in anything other than a pickup truck. You wont find it in anything else. A cummins? Thats found in everything that works hard!

Excellent video...straight to the point and no fluff. Great job man. I'm subscribing.

My neighbor who has a hot shot business with few trucks. All he uses is RAM 4500 no questions asked. His personal is GMC. Straight six is most reliable in his opinion.

What year do you recommend the truck I like to get into car hauling business use the truck

Like to do hotshotting car hotshots

Do you need a GOOD Hotshot Dispatcher?
We are VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE on the hotshot operation to keep you moving and in compliance. We are aware of how the weight, height, width eat into the fuel expenses. Along with a great understanding of how to properly book partial loads to get you a nice RPM. Plus, we know how to recognize double brokered loads and cut
them off. Must be OTR, 32 ft or longer trailer with great communication skills. We do not offer part time dispatching. We dispatch all your loads and map out all your routes. All you need to do is pick up and drop off.

Great info! Thank you

I LOOOOOOOOVE THIS VIDEO! Thank you sir!

Is it still worth to get into hot shots and car hauling?

So I have a 2019 f250 it has the 6.7 in it … can this get me started

Is f 450 gas only

Air ride! All the way

F550 gears, you can put different gears in optimizing what you're doing / pulling. 410,430, etc..

For the pickup vs tractor, where can I find the length limitations of one vs other?

Could you start with a freightliner M2? Or other older class 7 used trucks. 10-20k single tandem Much heavier duty and the cost of entry could be smaller. Lower risk.

Great information

Thank you for the truck recommendations. What is the trailer brand you recommend that you didn’t want to mention?? I’m new and I don’t want to buy a headache. Thank you for the information very grateful
