Stay motivating! Love the content and what you’re doing, love to see my people doing their thing!
Btw, my credits excellent, and I have a good lump some saved and invested, seriously considering getting into what you guys are doing! I’m out in FL with a 48” trailer about to head back to NY.. would love to link up!

Mannnnn I'm soo glad I found this channel. I never thought I be looking for hot shot videos. This has been something I wanted to do in the past 3-4yrs. I drive trucks otr I have a cdl and this is what I want to do and have my very own authority and company.
This video also is very informative its just what I needed. Also love the fact this Is a father son combo lol. I wish my dad was still here today cause he would be perfect to drive with me
I am putting everything together to start my Hotshot company. Thank you so much for this information.

Just what I was looking for. Thanks for the help. You guys make it sound possible. I’m getting started on my research.
hellyeah man love to see it 👍
This was more of an informative video than the other 40mins ones. I’m currently a semi truck driver but I’m saving up for my own rig & also for the hotshot business
I've been dragging my feet with jumping into the business for 3 yrs now. That last comment you made in the video changed everything. Thanks for the inspiration.
Like what y’all doing, keep up the hustle!
Ive just got into hs non cdl for now but I’m wanting to get my cdl soon
Keep the videos coming
Great video, Benni, and appreciate you keeping it short and sweet!
Hell yeah. Your dad gave very good info, and like snoop said back in the day, you gotta pay the cost to be the boss
Thanks for all the knowledge keep’em coming
Yessir
Y’all are good dudes. Thank you for the awesome info! God bless you both
This helped me so much💯. Hearing the break down really gave me the knowledge I needed to start up my business
your dad sounds like a cool dude
Hey Bennii, just found you and already inspired me to start my hotshot business that I’ve been thinking about doing for years! I drive class a dump trucks in Chicago and I love it! But it’s time to make that boss move and own something.Much love from chicago💪🏽
I’m in Chicago, are you home daily? Where are you getting your loads?
Great video! Very down to earth while giving the info. And you explain things thorough but in a elementary way so us NEW ppl can understand
New member. Loved your insights and honesty. Recently made a long trip to Colorado and I’m sure I saw hotshot loads. Love long distance driving. This job sounds very appealing. Thank you.
Looking at doing this after retirement from the military very soon. This video is the most concise, straight to the point video I've seen. Thanks Bennii for making this video and making it enjoyable to watch sir.
Yoooo I got you on TikTok lol I watch all your videos of you and your dad … y’all motivate me more and more when I watch y’all’s videos
Glad we can bring some motivation to you ! 🔥hotsquad
Found you guys on tic tok had to come check the videos out. I've been looking at hotshoting for the past year doing my research and its that time. So tired of the 9 to 5 bs. ITS MY TIME TO SHINE. Thanks for the information keep up the good word
I love you dudes man! Y’all my truckin fam,
no doubt! I’ve been doing da truckin thang 11 years! Now. Now I’m Hotshoting!
Wow so much knowledge in such few minutes. Bennii you are a blessed man 👏👏👏👏👏👏😎
Thank you I’m trying
I see your video quality keeps getting better and better. Editing more creative, content on point. Them bigger channels better watch themselves bennii coming 😂 hope to see y’all out there someday God Bless brother
Appreciate that man ! This means a lot
Best video I’ve seen on CZcams in a while that went into detail on exactly what I searched for 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Man! This is the best Hot shot video I’ve ever seen, explained everything so well, and straight to the point!!! Thank you! Blessing and be safe out there on the road!
All the core info in a video for Georgians. Thank you Bennii.
I have had a class B CDL because I would occasionally drive a satellite truck. I have had it since I was in the military. After a military retirement I was a SatCom field engineer until I got medically retired 7 years ago. I couldn't keep myself occupied enough and I have driven a school bus for the past 3 years. The wife is going into full retirement June 1st but she retired as a school teacher with 31 years back in 2012. We are headed towards Savannah leaving the ATL in June. I am buying a F350 to jump into Hot Shot trucking where we plan on using it to travel America while getting paid to run the roads.
Ngl, this seems more enjoyable and profitable than CDL trucking for some companies. And is cheaper to start up than buying your own Semi...
But he said his set up requires a class A
@@TheHeroicNinja he said it’s cheaper nothing to do with cdl
Pops was on point im just getting started but I'm enjoying the hell out it crawling and learning as I go still in my 90 days probation period so I'm looking forward for things to pick up thanks for all yells video and information hopefully one day we can meet up on the road or in our home state of Ga
Real information 💯 appreciate you being straight forward
Hey brother, my dad and I have started our own hotshot business. He recommend your channel to me and I find this very valuable. Thank you for all you guys do! I am a business consultant and im loving the nuggets and bombs you guys are dropping.
How’s business in 2023?????
I love your videos man extremely helpful coming from someone who knew absolutely nothing about trucking or hotshotting just a month ago now I’m getting ready to get my CDLs and hop on the paper train with y’all boys keep doing ya thing man very inspiring! ✊🏽
Well its been a year. How has things gone so far?
Appreciate the breakdown. Stay blessed my brothers 👍🏾
Learned so much keep up the good work fellas. Your videos really help, you'd be surprised how many people are tight lipped about the hot shot business. it's almost as if they don't want anyone else to make money. Glad I found your channel, and hopefully within the next 6 months I'll start my own business.
Your POPS very INFORMATIVE , same as you 🙏🏾 I’m 2 1/2 years out of prison so I’m trying to drive for myself as well
I love to hear it ! Leave the passed behind and create a future
I was skeptical of this video being clickbait or just a waste of my time. But I was wrong! You got right to the point, no meaningless talking about bs that has no relation to the video. Very inspiring video actually. I got my class A 3 months ago and have been thinking of hotshot so I can be my own boss and work when I want. This video helped a lot. Please make one on how to get loads👌
Man!! So much game in one video! Appreciate it brother! 💪💪🙌
One of the most informational straight to the point videos out there 💯…. Pops is cool as hell too 😂
I swear it felt like you been talking directly to me in this vid. Ive always wanted to got out on my own been driving for a big fabrication company for 5 years now with a class A. Making around 80k a year its been great but lately im just sick of working for someone else. You've inspired me sir now it's time thank you. Safe travels brother
I seen you wrote this comment a year ago. Just wondering did you start your own thing? If so how's it going?
Wow man! The way you lay it out is perfect. Been looking to start my LLC for close to 6 months. I’m currently making decent money, about 70-80k local CDL. I love trucking, but I’m a slave to the hand that feeds me. Scary walking away from a steady paycheck. But I’m sure if you walked away and don’t regret it, I could do the same! Thanks for the video
Same here
I am in!! Getting ready to jump ship! Thank you for the info, the more the better!! No CDL right now, but just applied for my CDL Learners Permit.
I’ve watched a TON of hotshot/expediting videos. This is the best! Thank you
This is by far the most educational video I’ve seen since I became interested in Hotshotting! Permit test in about 10 hours. Quick question, do you have preferred places to get your supplies from starting up?
Damn all that in information in 1 video is awesome I got pretty much everything I needed to know thanks
Glad it helps
Thank you for making these vids plz don’t stop , u guys are changing peoples lives
Thanks Benni. You and your dad made this video clear to understand and to the point. I'm getting started today. Thanks for the inspiration.💕💕💕
Bennii, you're killin' in the trucker vlog world. And your editing skills keep getting better. The more videos I watch, the more I want to get into the hotshot game. Do you and your pops have any knowledge about renting a truck to get started in hotshots? I've heard about Enterprise renting out commercial trucks.
I heard bad stories from that rental life man .
Do some deep research
But YEA APPRECIATE THE LOVE MAN ! I BE UP LATE NIGHTS EDITING VIDEOS MAN 🔥🔥🔥🙏🏾
Love this bruh. I should be out there in a year.
Okay ! Love too hear it
Looking to start my trucking company and I must say.. this video gave me that extra push at taking the leap of faith .. New subscriber 💯
Man I don’t know how I found this video but my brother this video is a classic. Thank you for so much good content. I had all the first steps done already through self research but everything pertaining to the truck, trailer, etc, was some fantastic information. Great video!
I'm right here in Huntsville Al next door I'm sure imma see yall real soon. Keep making those motivative videos. Im been doing my research for the pass 6 months and made my decision to go with my own authority and drive CDL hotshot
I'm in Huntsville also tuning in, looking to start the process in the next year!
@@dayway8358 same. Hopefully I'll be starting in 2-3 months
9:36 hit me hard. I had a great job, but got tired of it, so I quit and went to flight school. I spent all my money to get through, but now I have my Commercial Multiengine instrument dadadadaa etc... It's not easy for a new pilot and jobs are insanely hard to find let alone their insurance accepting your low hours even if they do want you. So I'm back at the bottom, I work 55 hours a week sometimes everyday of the week and hustle car detailing on the side and it ain't cutting it. I've always had the entrepreneur mindset and money is everywhere just how bad do you want that freedom to chase it. Anyways I've been really looking into Box trucks and hotshots for a month and now it's 11pm, I'm sitting in a hotel room (on the road for a company(driving a 26ft)) and my body/mind is tired. I get the customer payment paperwork and I calculated they'll make 7-8k on the low end after deductions(everything I could think of) for me being on the road 4 days. I'm going for it when I get home and not looking back. These videos we're god sent. Thank you.
how’s it going bud, any update?
This is where I'm at currently
Would love an update 🙏🏽
its only been a month. give him a few more so he can get his feet wet.
I thought most commercial flight schools were train to hire
I appreciate the insight! I’m considering getting into the field once I am finished with the military.
Thank you so much for this free knowledge, y’all some kings for this one. I’m hoping start doing this myself in the near future. First step, getting my CDL A!
You guys get all the love and respect from this way man! I will be leasing a truck in 6 weeks from the date of me writing this!
Lets go !! 🔥🔥😎
Leasing ? Don't they give you a limited amount of miles when you lease ?
@@ggi9054 it’s .29 per mile after the first 650. But we’re looking at other options as well!
What you said at the end is me in a nutshell, I'm tired of working for these IDIOTS I'm working for so I'm going to continue doing my research on hotshot and become my own BOSS !!!
Same! Been thinking about it for almost a year now
How did it go??
Well said my friend. Thanks for the knowledge.
Thank you for the tips now I have an insight of what to expect. This video push me more to get a cdl and start my own business keep up the good work 💪🏼
1 dislike? damn who hating.. 😂 but na much love from bay area CA. I'm all ears brother im learning and thank u for the knowledge u put out here. dont stop what u doing 💯
Lmao you feel me man
I spent 35 years in the car business, dealership sales, brokering for a local broker and then on my own with my own dealer license. Then came COVID which wiped me out. I'm really interested in taking the plunge into hotshotting but am nervous about taking the plunge.
Based on what I've seen so far I agree that getting a Class A CDL is the way to go as trying to fight the non-CDL battles just doesn't appear to be worth it.
Great channel, I appreciate all the info you provide.
Did you do it?
@@KurtNoBrainz Nope. Ultimately I decided that the financial risk this close to retirement just wasn't worth it. Had I been 10 years younger I probably would have given it a go.
Got straight to the points and some, I appreciate the info and knowledge!! 👍
Great source of info! Thanks!!!
21 years of OTR Semi I'm ready to join hotshot. Awesome video and info. I appreciate the encouragement bruh.
Man always !!
Why you leaving OTR you don’t like it anymore
Str8 motivation sitting here on lunch at this 9/5 it’s time for a change ✅
did you make the switch bro? ngl me and my pops both are over this construction shit lol
Hey man, I been subbed to your tic toc for months, you are literally the first person I subbed when I made my account.
Today I was telling a friend about this, and how I wanted to get into it. He's in the car business too selling cars. He said he could get me a job picking up and dropping off cars.
I said cool, then I'm already a driver for hire and this should help me get a loan to buy a dually and trailer.
So that's me plan. The funny thing is, this is the first video I watched on your CZcams channel and I laughed when I found out that's how you got the idea to do this, so looks like my plan is solid lol.
When you watch video and video of info and watch this man sum up more info in 5 minutes than most will tell you. Great video, so glad I found your channel!
I learned so much from y’all, I just started my hotshot business, I just wanna thank y’all and give y’all your flower man from the bottom of my heart, and I can’t wait to run into y’all on the road, y’all truly aspirational to a young guy that just got into this game, much love from
ZAYY THE HOTSHOT DUDE
How's the business going man. I'm trying to get into the game
I'm just about ready to hop into the business I've been researching but never heard no one talk about which fuel is better to have, diesel or gasoline? You think you could possibly help me out?
@@sarah372 for you it is the gas stove in the kitchen. ^.
@@sarah372 diesel for sure bro I recommend a 6.7 Cummins hardly ever gives your problems
@@sarah372 diesel for sure not only diesel is better but last longer and diesel trucks can haul more
Your dad is the GOAT big talk
Man Thats how I be feeling
Straight forward no bs! Thank you!
You are a good teacher, good information explaining cost, tools, and safety. I knew nothing about being a Hotshot. But this video is helping me. Blessings to you guys
Love you stuff! Truly inspiring. I’ve been watching your videos for months now and I’m studying my butt off to get this CDL and taking notes on all of your videos! On this video, Pops talked about getting EIN#, MC# DLT#, and getting a medical card. He says one more thing after that at; 5:40 into the video. I’ve listened to it a thousand times and can’t quite comprehend what exactly I need to get. If you could translate it for a man from the south I’d appreciate it lol
sounds like drug consortium
Man nothing beats a father son team out there killing it, I love your pops and you guys seem like the hardest working people
Man Y’all Some Real Ones! Thank You For All This Positive Information HotShot Benni. I’m Over The 9-5 Life It’s Time To Hit The Road.
I’d like to thank you gentlemen. Thinking about starting one’s own business it nerve wrecking, double guessing, and challenging. To find such encouraging video with proper and accurate information is actually motivating.
You and your dad droppin gems on here and yall cool as hell! I'm in the middle of the process now of starting a trucking company. Gettin my paperwork legalized.
Yessir!! Keep us updated
As a truck driver for 12 years, I have come to realize that It will come a time when you won't be able to drive trucks again and feed for the family.. So the better the best. Opportunities comes and go try as much as possible to utilize it because nothing last forever
I am in the middle of getting my CDL now. I was wondering what 6k truck and trailer your pops started with to get his business going. I have about 30k saved up to start and was thinking of leasing or buying a semi but figured if I could start cheaper the way your Dad did that would be awesome! You guys are killing it. Very cool to see man. Awsome job. I hope to provide my kids with the same kind of opportunities your doing for your family!
Don't spend your money on a semi , I was in the business for 40 years it's full of crooks and gangsters, if you have to get into trucking look into hotshots .
This video is more than dope! I’m subscribing 🔥🔥🔥🔥
You guys are awesome. Thanks😊
Bro I’m subscribing because of your Popz . I respect him.
Dang not because of me 😂appreciate the support man
I feel you with this comment.. pops be humble and really giving free game. Sometimes benni be bragging too much and a little too cocky. Pops a1 though.
I really would like to do this but how would I learn load securement? I been driving semi’s for the pass 2 yrs.
Great video bro so much information starting a new Playlist because I need to watch this multiple times
Man this is a great video! God bless y’all bruh.
Studying for my cdl now and I really been leaning towards the Hot Shot route. Great information! With so much to consider, I'm starting to feel like getting into this business at age 40 may be too much but I'm going to take a stab at it anyway! Congratulations to you and your fathers business!!
Peace n luv. I'm 40 yrs old myself an seriously been thinking about investing in this hotshot business. Age isn't nothing but a number. Go for it God bless you.
I’m 40 too and I’m thinking the same shit
@@dondrickuswest3061 We got this💪🏾
@@youngnick1800 We got this 💪🏾
@@youngnick1800 I'm thinking of the same thing also. By the time I retire from the Army I'll be 55. I'm tried of being told to go here and there, but uncle sam has set me up for option when I'm done. This is freedom to roam an make money. I'm in..
I wanna come ride with y'all and learn. Teach me the way first hand.
Maybe 🤔
@@truckingwithbennii that's not a no 😎
@@truckingwithbennii I’d totally be down to help any way I could to be able to learn a few things from y’all! I’ve been interested in doing this for several months now and just recently found your channel on TikTok!
Great video Hotshot Bennii. You outlined it perfectly.
Thank you for sharing your advice
$12k invested for the $240k flip✊🏾

@@truckingwithbennii hello young man I've been following you and your pops..I would like to know a few things.i possess a class B CDL and I would like to know do I need to upgrade to a class a in order to invest and get started in the business

*Watching the growth of stocks and financial assets in few years, everyone should start investing pronto even with the dip cause of the surprise in stock rising!*
I absolutely agree with your suggestion' An idea of a broker is awesome and reliable, you have a secured risk free financing portfolio
Had the same struggles as a beginner before a colleague introduced me to Mr Charles Schwab who showed me great strategies on how trade and accumulate profit constantly which helped alot during the download and unlike others,He doesn't ask for anything to teach you.Good people still exist.
I was a stay-at-home mother and I have been searching for a job but since I met Expert Charles, i ain't bothered anymore.because his expertise in trade yield me over £5500 weekly that's more than what my husband gets hahaha
That's interesting,any way to connect with him?I have to get started.
After a successful payout and compounding interest from generating hyrule on my trade which took me five months to hit a million on my trading account.
