    You definitely show the ups and downs of owning your business and how much it can weigh on somebody You are making choices for the long run.

      @@Mclint9171 True but it's not as much as you think it is . The tools and stuff definitely helped But he was definitely underinsured with the shop which is not hard to do if you never encountered that situation or had anybody tell you how exactly commercial insurance works when it comes to a shop......
      Also of course his CZcams fame has helped him secure contracts that most people probably couldn't get but The economy is still slowly grinding to a halt And I'm sure Tim has a lot riding on him and his business Not to mention just the overhead of rebuilding a bigger improved shop and making the purchases of equipment and other tools that he doesn't have Like any other business there's risks involved.

    I work for a 40 truck reefer fleet. We are staying afloat but it's getting tight. We usually have semi-dedicated lanes but we are stepping out of those lanes more and more to keep the wheels turning. I've got over a decade of warehousing experience I can fall back on but most of our drivers are over 50 and don't have such luxuries.

    Tim, when you open your belly gate, lift the floor door first then swing your bottom belly gate open. I also stand behind the belly gate or on top of it. Usually as soon as I open the swing gate they’re running out of the belly faster than I could get out of the way. Safer option to be behind the gate, it won’t crush you as it’s against the trailer wall already and you have plenty of a gap behind it

As long as people keep eating, sitting on the toilet, making babies. There going to need a truck to deliver there supplies.

    In one cattle hauling video a while back, he talked about how he likes the cattle, and how he likes to make it as easy as possible for them when he is hauling a load, so he drives a little slower to help with that, so, in this video, he is driving 75 MPH at one point. What is up with that?

    Minium wage is jumping to 15.00 dollars an hour may have something to do with it. the job market had dropped as well. warehouse work is 15.00 to 18;00 an hour here in Indianapolis
