Thank you so much. I was very pleasantly surprised to be honest with you. I was thinking here it comes. I might have to spend more money, but thank God I didn’t have to.
I came to prime to get my CDL and one year experience. Yes $1200 a week for the tractor to rent. Comes out to about $1400 a week ins, permits, etc. basically you pull the first load to pay off your week and then you pull another load to pay yourself. That is why prime has 10,000 trucks no truck payments all the new drivers pay it.
@@rhett5914Dang. You will see first hand when you buy your own truck how big of a difference it is. You’ll make way more money than you do now. I guarantee you that. Those high payments at prime is what’s killing the profits. You guys make good money there but they take a lot of it on all them payments.
I am coming back to work and drive OTR 40 yrs experience clean record...I was thinking about driving for J B Hunt. I only work 6 months out of the year...any recommendations ? Thanks buddy..
I don’t really know much about these big companies, my friend. I’ve never worked for one before, so I wouldn’t really know if they’re good or bad. But if it was me, I would try finding smaller company to run with. They will usually treat you better and you will make more money than you would with mega carrier.
I understand and agree what you’re saying about Prime Inc. but they do send the revenue information for every load to the lease operators. Line haul, fuel surcharge, tolls, reefer fuel surcharge, detention, layover, tonu, etc.
Whenever I watch this girl‘s video, she said they don’t get confirmation confirmations or anything like that. They only get whatever prime wants them to get.
@@OTRBanditThey use the same method brokers use. They tell you what they are offering for the load and they communicate through the Qualcomm and their mobile app. It has always been that way with Prime forever since they first started the lease operation in the 80’s. Whoever you were talking to is lying like some drivers do. You know some drivers lie through their teeth. I’m not advocating for Prime. I’m just correcting for what were told. Maybe she is a company driver. If so of course they aren’t going to tell a company driver what they are getting from their contract shippers. Prime is the largest reefer fleet in the industry. A company driver is only told the empty and loaded miles. You can do the math yourself based on the cent per mile you get paid.
Good evening bandit my friend how are u doing today I'm doing pretty good but again we're currently under a a tsunami watch for a potential daming tsunami waves and today it's all nice party cloudy in the lower 50s but more severe weather is on the way back 2 the Pacific Northwest please drive safe my friend especially with snow have a good day my friend
Good morning bandit my friend sorry I just got your message this i was watching a movie with my wife on her phone off of Hulu but hell yeah let's hope it doesn't I've already been in a tsunami once in my life time and that was probably back in the beginning of 2000 or something like that was scary it climbed a 100ft rocks and my old friend was like roll them up his car windows because we were following a youth group church bus at the time going to Lincoln City from Newport Oregon from hwy 101 I believe but I hope u have a good day hopefully u can pick up some pretty fine paying loads and please drive safely my friend and your very welcome buddy
Great news. hey. I was wondering what that would cost. As soon as they know you are self-employed the price goes through the roof. It does here in the UK. anyway
A lot of shops here in USA have hourly rates set and we can call around and ask what those rates are. If you don’t like it, we can go somewhere else where it’s cheaper.
you need to check and make sure all of your fuel lines stay good, i had many problems with rubber fuel lines cracking and reefer sucking air and not running.
Well Bandit you finally caught a break! I’m glad your reefer head gasket is covered by warranty! Go buy a lottery ticket and I don’t want to hear about it if you win!…..😂 #OTRBANDIT
Definitely good news that I did not expect. I really thought I was gonna be out thousands of dollars on this thing. But thank God everything worked out good. Thank you so much and you have a great day as well.
You are definitely right, buddy. That’s what all of these prime drivers are saying. They always say that you have to stay on the road if you wanna make any money. But I don’t wanna stay on the road all the time. I wanna be able to go home and spend the whole week at home whenever I feel like to.
You could have been 6 hours down the road if they only would have know. But the two guys were nice. Ya, he will say we'll I gave you a place to live unless he is one that real does not worry about that. You are so funny in the things you say! Jefferson City did not have much snow. You are very lucky glad it was under warranty! Ya, that is the biggest scam! I like that Indian on the corner in Oklahoma that is a nice land mark. Have a goodnight sleep and thank you for an awesome trip see you on the next one!🙏
Thank you so much. Yeah it was a mistake but I forgive them because they seem like they are super nice. And you are right I got really lucky with the reefer trailer repair. Thank God everything worked out the way it did.
that prime driver is a lying , i drove for them and drove my butt off, they let me go because i discovered the dispatchers were giving their fav drivers best loads because they were getting kick backs from the drivers, i wouldnt pay the dispatchers for loads so i left prime,
They really are super handy. I use the broom for 18 years and whenever I bought this reefer, I got a leaf blower. And it’s the best thing I ever had for my trailer. You get done in like 30 seconds.
Your brain was clogged up so bad because you have been spending too much time with Richard’s mom. You gonna have to limit yourself buddy. She’s going to ruin your brain. 😂
@@OTRBandit Yeah I'm just watching your shoulder I like watching your shoulder and it's funny but you have a problem on your sound uh cut cuts off and on sometime you lose your sale on your on your video there so I thought barely you know that's my Fortnite like watching your show thank you brother😊😊
My phone definitely has that. But unfortunately, these guys are calling me from different number every time. Every time they call it’s a different phone number.
Bandit,My dad who watched your videos and knows what you go thru told me to say this to you It known as the LOCNO system Lack of Communication No organization
I think you and your dad for watching. And tell your dad I’ll remember that. And it was 100% lack of communication. I was not too happy about it, but it is what it is.
these guys thought you drove for jb hunt, you need to tell these people when they screw you on time that you are independent trucker, you work for yourself, then maybe they will be more apologetic
@OTRBandit u as well hopefully you have a blessed night and be safe after Chicago me wife heading to TX home for a few days and back out trying to pay off my truck in 129 more $350.00 payment I get 25/75 not to bad I guess if ref and rate pick up
@@JohnDavidson-im3oz definitely not too bad, buddy. You guys will have that paid off in no time. I just picked up my first load from Denver since I’ve been gone there. I usually come back empty because there’s nothing there but right now market is on fire over there.
Still not smoking Mr bandit my 3rd week they don’t suspend your social security number your given one number you can always go talk to them at social security office
I'm sorry I don't agree with joe biden on anything. Tell me you a republican. With that truck I would make a point to run west. Texas, new Mexico and Arizona at least till winter over. I used to get so tired of running in the snow and getting caught in whiteout. I ran nabisco cookies out of stock bridge ga to Tulsa ok. Running thru Russellville Arkansas my alternator quit. I found the international truck dealer mechanic shop open all night. By the time they got me fixed a winter storm caught up with me and the roads were closed. I parked at a flying J for the night. Next morning I found trucks had just pulled in and parked everywhere and I could not get out of the parking lot. By ten am trucks started leaving. Drove all day on icy roads with snow falling. Made it to a loves right at the turn pike to tulsa. Had a phone in my truck cause cellphones were new then. Called the customer he said stay where you are and come in at 8 am I got trucks stuck at my dock and in the parking lot. I was pissed. I showed up at 8 and they were busy getting trucks unstuck. My trusty Pete had no trouble with the snow. Finally got unloaded and had to drive (slowly) due to road conditions to my reload in rogers Arkansas. Got there at a quarter to 5 at a recycling center and the guard told me to weigh in and pull up and park. I went inside and was told they would load me in the morning cause they leave at 5. The guy told me they had a warm break room where they had a sandwich machine and I could make coffee. Had a nice tv too so I ate sandwiches that night and watched TV till bedtime then went to sleep in the truck. Got loaded Friday morning for savannah ga to the paper mill.....for Monday morning. Once I got out of the snow and ice I rolled home. So basically 3 day run and still had to go home cause I couldn't unload till Monday. At that time I was living an hour and a half from savannah ga. Got home I think around midnight. Not the best trip but at least I was able to stay loaded!! There's my story bandit.

Love the videos brother !!
Thank you so much, buddy
Head gasket warranty, I almost forgot during the commercial.......
Got really lucky there. Few more weeks and it would hurt my wallet pretty bad.
Glad your reefer was still under warranty ! Saved some of that money my friend.. Stay safe,
looking forward to the next ride...
I really got lucky there. Fixed this refer is the last thing I need right now.

$1400 a week for a truck payment is way too much on a truck that will never be yours in the end. I hope they didn’t sucker you in to leasing one.
@ yes I did a lease. 🙄 saving my money, learning the industry then I will buy my own tractor about six months to go.

@ the sad part about is he LOves Lying 🤥 did you see his face when he offered you the snack. No way I would eat that.

Most definitely. I was very happy to hear that I would not have to spend money on it.

@@jannotasleep9551Anytime 🙏🏼
7 year warranty? That's pretty damn good..
I had no idea about it until I was told by Thermo King and I was pretty freaking happy about it.
Buddy, lets get going, get that $$$ !!!
Let’s get this money, buddy
The freight at Prime is secondary..subsidized by lease dummies. They have built a hell of a residual biz bundling services to them.
I bet they are making a ton of money off of these drivers. They are freaking geniuses if you’re asking me.
Lease a truck is slave yourself to it because you gonna have to run without going home to make money
You are definitely right, buddy. That’s what all of these prime drivers are saying. They always say that you have to stay on the road if you wanna make any money. But I don’t wanna stay on the road all the time. I wanna be able to go home and spend the whole week at home whenever I feel like to.
