Lots of great information y'all. I appreciate it. Also, to get off the 1099 issue, what about the outlook for hotshotting? Does it look promising? Or is it something that will fade away?

Ok. Anything else? Have any of you drove for a hotshot company? Worked a 1099?and if so for what type of business?

I understand the part about putting money aside. That's not a problem. Besides that, are there any other hiccups working with a 1099?

Lots of People do 1099's don't they? What's the big deal?

Company driver, OR and 1099

I am looking into working for a hotshot company. I don't have a truck or trailer so I will be using there equipment. I've read stuff online. Looked at the pros and cons. But I want to hear the pros and cons from someone who has actually done it. So if there is any one out there that has done some hotshotting I would like to hear about your experience:) Good and Bad.

Why does Crude hauling seem to bring in more money? Or does it?

Awesome, thanks for the info:)

Hey Old School, I listen to your advice and insight everytime we chat. It's not a lot and it's been a while but I pay attention when you've got something to say. I know how to drive, that is no problem, what I don't know is the trucking industry and the ins and outs. I just talked to TMC TRANS and here's a run down of what they said: The schedule would vary week to week. They said they are very busy. I would get an assigned truck that I would take home when I do go home. Every weekend off. Mostly. Pay- 42cents per mile or 27% of revenue of the load

Are these normal? Are they good ? Bad?

Got a call from JB Hunt and TMC Transportation for a job. Any experience with these companies or any advice about these two?
