GVWR, GCWR, GAWR, & GVW Abbreviations explained for Towing & DOT Rules. #towing #hotshottrucking

I had to watch your video over and over again in segments but I finally grasped what you were saying. Your presentation was the only one i grasped. All other people I listened to confused the hell out of it with their explanations. If you wrote down the numbers and did the math on paper as you explained it I could of grasped it way sooner. It's all simple once you get it.

Nice that helped a lot!

Thank your sir.

So... you can load over the GVWR of 10,000 lbs in the main truck if your truck with trailer (GWR) doesn't exceed 26000 (GCWR)? You said the GVWR "goes away" so I just want to clarify, didn't seem to make sense why it would go away.

Thanks for the Video💯 i drive a 14 feet box truck intrastate and was all stressed getting all those messages from us dot an FMCSA about just getting enrolled and having to pay them so many stuff… now I know I don’t qualify on all of that CDL stuff my gvw is 8k gvwr 15k god bless you all be safe

THANK YOU!

This may be a stupid question, however I have a 97 F350 SRW with the 7.3. The only weight rating on my vin sticker is the gvwr. Where do I get the actual gcwr for my truck? I do have a class a, I’m just looking into a skid steer for side work and the farm.

So what is the max trailer you can tow behind a 3500 dually. Like, for example, I have seen this truck with a gooseneck with three 15K axes on it.

I have kind of a tricky question here. I understand that brokers require at least 750,000 and most require 1 mil. But FMCSA only requires 300,000 ins. policy if GVWR is under 10,001#. That being said, if I'm not going to use brokers and run locally through direct customers and my GVWR of my tow vehicle is less than 10001# but I tow a 16k trailer and have registration for 26000# or less, can I still legally get away with a 300,000 ins. policy? Under FMCSA rules it only states GVWR under 10001#, doesnt say anything about GCVW/towing/combination. This is in CA btw, if you scroll down to Colorado, just as an example, it does specify "towing" cannot exceed 10001 pounds.

Hey can u explain to me alittle bit more please I'm so lost and I wanna start non cdl hotshot trucking

Appreciate the video nice seeing it on paper. I've worked mine out on paper but still nice seeing someone else do it to make sure I was on right track.

Thanks for the video! When i first started doing research it took me a while to grasp those concepts. This video does a good job of explaining it.
My next hurdle will be payload. If you have a DOT lvl 1 while hauling, do they ever try to ask/figure that? I guess it would be apparent if at the scales, but along the roadside they cant check, can they?
