Get to Know Jimmy!

1. Where are you from?
Southern California born, raised, and currently residing.

2. What kind of loads do you haul?
General dry van freight consisting primarily of both alcoholic & non-alcoholic beverages, appliances, and foodstuffs.

3. What kind of truck do you drive?
I have a fleet consisting of several manufacturers, but my go-to is the Freightliner Cascadia.

4. Where do you usually haul to?
Primary lanes take our trucks to the Southwestern 3 (CA, AZ, NV), but you may see our trucks from time to time on irregular trips anywhere in the Western half of the US.

5. How long have you been a driver?
22 years

6. What carrier do you drive with?
I'm no longer a “driver” so to speak as of about 2 years ago, though I still maintain my CDL and medical. I am instead the Owner and President of Angus Transportation, Inc. and sole handler of all business aspects day-to-day.

7. Why would you recommend that owner-operators use ATBS?
In an industry where there seems to be a new deadline or regulation each and every day, utilizing someone to handle the bookkeeping and financial aspects of a business gives you one less thing to worry about. 

8. What do you listen to on the radio?
90’s Ska, Country, Celtic rock, 90’s Alternative

9. What are you most passionate about in trucking?
Helping others learn to be successful. Sharing knowledge from my slips and stumbles along the way, in an effort to keep others from doing the same. “Leading the horses to water” and hoping the occasional one along the way “takes a drink”!

10. Do you still use a CB radio?

When I drove I still “had my ears on” every day! Though it seemed to be a lesser used form of commutation in this day and age, it still offered a way to help pass the miles and keep a heads up ahead of the journey for any unexpected hazards.
