    Good video. I did it for a year for Star Fleet out of Elkhart In. when I lived in Chillicothe Mo. Would leave home on Sunday afternoon and get into Elkhart, pick up my trailer and then drive for two hours, pull over and sleep. I would either take one long trip a week or two short ones that would equal one long one and be home on Friday morning or afternoon. My wife would occasionally go with me. It was fun except going into Canada in the winter.

However, this particular video was the best of all I've watched since my interest in RV transport came about 3 weeks ago-- fantastic content! I have been communicating with Horizon but have not taken the leap just yet. I am planning to continue my full time job for at least another year but would love to try out the business a few times a month to figure out if it's for me. Thanks again for the great level of detail.

    Just pointing out I think the battery to be one of those little small sealed lead acid batteries like used to fit in spotlights. Is Billy supposed to be on the trailer not the truck, but are they requiring you to keep an xtra on the truck? That big one would be kind of hard to mount on most trailers where they use the small tiny battery box.. maybe these guys are using a little something different than the ones I remember. 😅
    Yeah I have fun thanks for the video.

    Wow that's a lot of equipment that you have to have up front just to do the job. I don't know where they think people have all this money to buy all the stuff to start doing that. If you don't have a lot of extra money it doesn't sound like this is the best job to get into.
    Not to be totally negative but overall it was a great video and you had some really good information. Just makes me feel a little down about it because I don't have half that stuff and I don't have the money to buy all that stuff to get started.

    Amazing video guys and keep the information coming! I plan to get into this in about 2 years after I retire from the military so I'm trying to get as much information as I can now. I do have 2 questions for you. 1- You didn't mention checking the tire pressure on the trailer but I assume you do that after checking the lug nuts. 2- Is there an inspection of the roof of the RV? Seems to me that there could be damage there from the driver. Haven't heard it mentioned anywhere yet. Thanks again and I'll check in again for your driver number once I'm ready to go. Hopefully you're still working for Horizon!

    • @fairwindsfollowingseas7909
      @fairwindsfollowingseas7909  Před 3 lety +4

      I thought we put tire pressure in that video maybe not I have done several videos that cover the fact that you need to do that. I don’t check the roof because if I were to climb up there in the latter ripped out of the side of the trailer I would be liable for that damage and there is no compensation if I were to fall off the ladder and hurt myself. In one of my videos I took a trailer and when I got to delivery the roof was destroyed they sent it back And they paid me to take it back

    I think this was a great video . I am in the process of retiring from heavy equipment type work and have 45 years CDL-A. I have been considering during transport work as a way to see some of America. I have a international 4700 four-door western hauler for my personal truck to pull my personal camper would consider using it but fuel efficiency may eat up to much profit. I get 8- 9.5 mpg pulling a 42’. 20,000# toy hauler. But only 10.5 no trailer. I also have a 1999 2500 Dodge .

      Fair Winds & Following Seas no one else can tell me ether the only thing I can think of is if you are getting a back haul and it doesn’t have the safety chains so you can make a set

      It’s to chain the axle up if you get a flat and don’t have a spare. That way you can safely get off the highway and wait for help in a safe place.

    Great video-saved it. I do have a question in this era, have you had any serious issues with civil unrest or theft on the road?

    To work for Horizon, do I need to get my DOT numbers or do we use theirs? What are the magnets that Chris mentioned putting on the side of his truck?
