That whole interview w your uncle went over my head cause I only speak English lol but it’s cool to see a relatively young guy set up in his own office with 9 trucks under him.
You can tell that he’s a hard working man who knows what he’s doing. I took two years of Spanish in high school (over 40 years ago!) and I could pick up certain words like “primero” “semana” “troque” and “dinero” (💵💴💰) so I got the “jist” of what he said. If you’re not too careful, your little boy will end up being a truck driver like the rest of us. In my 28 years of driving (I’ve been an owner operator since 2004), I can’t tell you how many drivers I met who got into trucking by riding with their dads, uncles, grandfathers, etc. It gets in your blood that way. I’m the ONLY driver in my family though. I got into it entirely on my own.
It’s rare to see someone wait while you make a turn especially in California I live thirty minutes from Visalia very bad drivers out here. People who hate on you are bringing bad energy to you I’ll pray for you brother
Yea it’s very rare, I also live 30 minutes from Visalia and I can agree that we have bad drivers around here but I love this guys content. I also wonna do trucking because you can travel but when you have a family that sucks the most. When I heard him say Visalia I got so surprised, I hope I can meet him one day.
Bro your uncle had some good advice man. I just started my career and yea it’s tough but the end goal is where it’s at. It’s very motivating seeing how he has made it and following you going there as well.
Your son is so cute (in his yellow vest). I love that you spend time together ❤️ Also your videos make me more aware of truck drivers. I live by a lot of distribution centers. Speaking of negative energy I know a healer who removes that. Jealousy & envy is real. You blew up. Stay safe & protected fam
not trying to be a downer but i wish i had moments like these with a father figure but seeing you with your son fills me with happiness knowing your son will grow saying how his dad would take on in a big truck
I’ve enjoyed watching your videos. That’s awesome that your uncle started with one truck and now has nine and more on the way which is cool and that’s just living the dream. I’m glad that your uncle lets you take your kid with you and spend some quality time with your son. Looking forward to watching more of your CZcams videos
I used to go with my dad in the truck. Same area. Hauling cotton. The drivers would get the paperwork and have to mark their bales. So they would pay me to do it. He will love the memories.
You are learning from a very knowledgeable man about your career and it shows the way he explains it to you. You can also see the bond you have with your uncle. Great man to look up to and teaching you not only the trucking business, but as well as being a father figure to you. Keep those videos coming brother.. quick question though, you like the automatic or manual transmissions?
As my dad was a dispatcher/safety director of fed-ex and a part owner of a company (trucking) it was hard and it depends a lot of your a partnership or a whole owner. If you can make it work, and have great employees then you will make it. My dad indeed left the industry and now works for a multi million dollar company that specializes in concerts and big events here in Las Vegas. I’m glad you see the value in learning from your uncle, my father says take care of your employees and pay them well and everything will follow, it always starts from the top!
My husband started from the bottom too now he owns his own truck n make his own hours. He probably worked about 6 hours a day n home every day. I remember when he worked 13 hours and get home late those was the day
El pana me tiene pero inspirado men!! Voy a sacar mi CDL en enero si el señor me lo permite, de Yauco, pa FL y despues a comerme el mundo.. Saca tu CDL! No le baje! Vamos pa’ encimota! 🇵🇷✊🏻🔥💯
Hey bro! love the videos. One of the reason I am currently trying to get a grant for schooling! I have applied for the WIOA grant. I need to talk to two separate People with their CDL and currently driving about their life on the road. Would be great if I could ask you 10 or so questions about you and the trucking life. I'd appreciate it much.
@@vadenoyerbides5538 no problem, It’s 3 test general knowledge, air brakes, and combination. Well that’s how it was for me in Illinois not sure any other requirements
Love to hear the insights from your uncle.. he's an American dream speaking in not sure how much English and making a success out of himself in America and even better he did it in Commiefornia with all the ridiculousness there.. love you too translate to English..i was looking forward to hearing what he had to say
Hi- Can you summarize some of the high point from your uncle. I don't speak Spanish I didn't pick on much. I know he had some great info. Thanks a million!
That's cool that you interviewed your uncle, but you gotta realize that all of your subscribers don't know Spanish, so of course I had no idea what y'all were saying.
Alex bro love your youtube clips im going to the truck driving school this month the 16th you get me motivated to accomplishing my goal as a truck driver i. Hope to see you out there someday im from Bakersfield California keep on trucking👍
Yo im from bakes too and i wanna be a truck driver did you pay for your cdl training or find a place that pays for your training ive been wanting to finally start aswell
Hey, just starting trucking. Just wondering if starting out working with an owner op counts as valid experience to future employers. Enjoying the vids 👍
Brother your uncle mentioned something that is very important and that is hurting my license right now I got two different tickets in two different states each ticket 3 points a total of 6 points no insurance wants me know I am working with lawyers because it wasn’t fair what they did to me but it could take a long time and is hurting my career as a truck driver I might have to get a local job until I can take those points of my license
I'm not a trucker but I think I would like cross country driving. I'm not in a hurry to get back home for any reason. Something like east to west or vice versa. If they have that kind of thing.
You should do a video where it's just you breaking down your conversation with your tio.Just translating to english and giving your own thoughts on his words.
My husband used to go on the road with his dad. Then they sold the business. Watch for those Shaw Flooring trucks. That's the business he sold. Now my son drives long haul. Guess it's in the blood.
That whole interview is hard for me to understand because i only speak English but i do know some Spanish, but it is still cool for your uncle to own 9 semi trucks and two box trucks.
Another advice I can give new truckers is when good money starts to come in dont go and finance a new Mercedes Bens or a Canam because having a lot of expenses can prevent truckers from saving money and at the end of the year you wont have money to pay your taxes. The only debt you want to have is when financing new equipment because you can put it as a tax write off and it can eventually make you money to pay off itself.
Does your uncle have he’s own authority then ? For my understanding I was told that when you get your own first truck to start under someone’s authority, but with your own truck do the work. Is that the best first move or open your own authority do you know which one would be better at first ? Sorry about the question , it’s just I should be getting my own truck this year but I’m leaning to been under someone’s authority with my truck so that’s why I’m asking lol.
Been seen a few of your videos I been driving for 6 years back then I didn't care about my credit I messed up this year I done fixing my credit this year coming up I'm going for it and get my own truck I run from los Angeles to Pennsylvania and back $1800 or boston and I be home weekly I make $2300 at week when I do Boston I always try to put 1000 on the side so when I go for it I have the money
Really nice Videos keep up the hard work but one bad thing you did is use your phone GPS!!! That GPS was designed for cars and Pickups not Semi Trucks! Maybe look in to investing in a Truckers GPS it will give you better stuff! When driving your Semi Truck it will give you truck stop fuel prices weigh stations and a lot more just some I thought I should share with you, have a good one man!!
It’s my dream job to go trucking. But I get seizures sometimes. It’s not the bad pass out kind. It’s more like muscle twitches. It drains ya makes ya tired. But not able to sleep. So what would happen is these would keep me up for about a week and then I ride the waves slowly getting my sleep back. First few waves are day dreams. And then that slowly goes into normal broken sleep. And then a while of doing that I get my sleep back and I’m normal again. Nothing to bad. Just a big annoyance. With a headache. Sometimes my yawns won’t be catchable. So I would be sitting there sucking in a bunch of air trying to catch a yawn. I usually get one in. But when I have to yawn again it starts over to where I can’t catch it. I’ve had these for as long as I can remember. I would try to go to the hospital about it but they always make me wait forever so I’ll be sitting in the waiting room dying until they call me. When they call me it’s the bill lady first. Like how am I suppose to tell her anything ? Even if I have someone that can tell her I’m still waiting. And when and if I get a room I’m still waiting in there. At least there’s a bed in there. It’s up on Google that I have to go ten years without one to be considered but what’s the point in that ? I can’t put my life on hold for ten years to be considered to truck. Still currently without a job. Who wants to hire me anyway ? I’m like broken. I can be good for a while till it starts up again.
Your son is just precious! I loved the "Daddy's Little Helper" haha. I hope to have a child one day.
I’m 13 and still love going with my dad to work 🙂
I’m 11 and same me and my dad do every thing Together and I love it

For real I got 7 and y’all don’t even know the stress and work holy shit is wild
Same bro, I feel like all the secrets are there if we could only speak Spanish lol

Love your videos man!! especially this one bonding with your kid 👍
I don’t speak Spanish but I still listened to your uncle’s sage wisdom through the whole conversation.
CAN YOU DO AN INTERVIEW TO YOUR UNCLE , like a story about how he started his path on truking !
I used to go with my dad in the truck. Same area. Hauling cotton. The drivers would get the paperwork and have to mark their bales. So they would pay me to do it. He will love the memories.

You drive this truck like it is a mini van! Impressive.

That's cool that you interviewed your uncle, but you gotta realize that all of your subscribers don't know Spanish, so of course I had no idea what y'all were saying.

Even if you did tell us when you asked your uncle questions I'd would have still watched every second.

Hey, just starting trucking. Just wondering if starting out working with an owner op counts as valid experience to future employers. Enjoying the vids 👍
Of course it does it's still drive time and you are getting paid.
I like your work
Been driving for 5 years and I still feel like owning your own truck is a high risk for it not to work especially now a days
You definitely have to have a good head for running a Business too! economics, accounting, finance etc.
Hell yeah I used to live in Visalia! Nice apartments on south lovers lane! Worked at target there and loved the city!
I just got my cdl and start my new job at the ports can’t wait

My dad has been a truck driver for 14 years and he tells me not to own my own truck if I become a truck driver win old enough
That's what a lot of drivers say. But those same drivers are the ones asking you when your buying your truck🤣

When you ever buy your own truck you should try to invest working with FedEx ground in linehall become a contractor

He has his own authority!! But if you have to it doesn’t hurt to start under someone else just to open up your doors to more opportunities.
needed subtitles for conversation with your uncle
8:47 that rear tandem tire looks like hell.
