      And most dealers would be a lot more willing I belive to let a hotshot trucks as they usally have some auto mechanic knowledge. Where a non hotshot drivers in the eyes of the dealer would be asking millions of questions, probably get in the way, be offering there advice and say it’s not right.
      Yes there dealers that will let you in, some that won’t for insurance. And some know more than others.

    Great videos, I'm currently planning to do hotshot full-time after my daughter graduates in a few years, already have my truck fully paid off & money saved for a trailer to buy cash. The plan is to have around 6-8 months expenses and sign on to someone's authority for a year or so while I get some experience under my belt not new to towing trailers or anything. I'll probably start non-CDL until I build up enough money to get out of the 2500 and into a 3500. Your videos are very helpful, I hope to have very low expenses (House/property will be paid off as well) leaving the tech industry behind I just can't sit in front of a computer anymore been doing a lot of research and your videos are top notch I've actually learned a lot from them so far and I'm very excited to get out there and do it on my own!

    Thanks for sharing. It might be worthwhile considering upgrading into a new RAM or equivelent , once your truck starts breaking down and costing you money , plus time off the road its becomes a real headache and you end up getting range anxiety. But i think getting a brandnew transmission from the dealership was the smart thing to do , even if it costed you more money than say a used one or reconditioned unit from a transmission specialists. I would have asked them to change the rear main seal while they had the box off, and i probably would have fitted a new radiator just to be safe.

    i know you were in a pinch, which sucks. but i'd look into muldoons transmissions. someone like you that hauls all the time, for a trans to go out after 220k is tough. might be beneficial to spend $8k in the future and have a built transmission.

    Damn... I called that snap ring in your short video. I've read about it happening on the 22's mainly but at low mileage not at 223k. Sorry you went through that man. I'm really surprised at how cheap that crate trans was. 8800 really isn't bad for every thing. Pd diesel has gotten up to 500k on his Aisin trucks but they are 4th gens so hopefully this one last to then. Glad you got her right bud. Be safe out there.

    last weeks at end of snow storm my 2020 silverado 2500hd 100,000 miles plow truck stopped while driving , no gears. AAA would not tow because of plow on front.
    Like he said got to go nearest place.
    auto shop said transfer case needed replace. Back-ordered for 3 weeks and not wanting take chance longer than 3 weeks. Not knowing about transfer cases i said ok to a new one for $5000.
    Online says common problem . i bought used 2 years ago 71,000 miles.
    I need my only plow truck bask asap. After learning I found a rebuild on site shop for under $3000. I called back to the shop and they are looking for a rebuild because they do not do on site .My original tow $ 182 for 7.2 miles. The rebuild shop is 2x distance. Plow was being difficult getting off truck and temps are double digits, negative with wind chill.
    If rebuild is not as cheap as shop on site rebuild i will stay at current shop if the find used one with warranty.

    I still think its a bad idea to hire owner operators to run under your authority. I've seen far too many trucks destroyed and transported items damaged by people that simply don't care about your equipment. And if you lease-to-own your truck and trailer at this point neither will last very long before they are destroyed. It is very hard to find quality help and drivers these days. If anything just sell your rig outright and buy new.....

    No shop that you are at the dealership. Dodge trucks are garbage. The trucks will fall apart around the engine within the next 2 to 3 years if you buy a brand new one. That’s why they have no resale value.
