Elevated trucking with Rob. Day to day life in the freight transportation industry. The good, bad and ugly truths to trucking. From shippers to carriers from a truck drivers prospective. Bad weather, break downs, hours of service, parts, costs, DIY. The differences in freight. Tight turns, backing in, D.O.T scales, pre-trip, post-trip, layovers. Parking at hotels and truck stops. Impossible turns. Never completely following the truck GPS. Road closures and detours. Family time, wife and kids. Time off/Off-duty. Investment vs home pay. Company driver vs. Owner opp vs. Own Authority. Best GPS for me. Truck Comfort. Having extra fluids at all times. Trucking in snow, rain, traffic jams. Watch your own trailer, not completely depending on traffic directors. One of the top rules for me. GET OUT AND LOOK. Trucking vlog, family vlog.
on my freightliner 2016 i’m facing this issue like when turn on heat it’s only blow air no heat can you help what was issue found on your unit ? can try my self for repair or need to go dealer ?
Keep them wheels rollin' bud. One of the few jobs that pay you to see places you would likely never even think to go. There's alot of world out there. Might as well get paid to discover it!
U did pretty good fmcsa says a load check must be done within the first 25 then every 100 miles after that. I drove flatbed for years comin in to run local.
That doesn't sound right. 25 miles? I think it's within the first 50 miles then every 150 or 2 hours whichever comes first. You should have put a half turn in straps on drivers side also and I think the strap has to have at least 3 wraps around the winch barrel.
I worked on trailer lights someone did 1 and customer went down the road and lost it and wires go wrapped in the axle not a semi trailer they brought it bck I put new wires up and wrapped the whole damn wire harness looked factory when I was done 😂😂
You made this seem like it was so easy and simple, but I know that this takes so much practice and learning. Thank you for showing us some of the hard things you have to do when your dropping off loads.
never go outside of the rub rail unless its an over size load. if this trailer comes in contact with something it could cause you to lose the load. Go behind the rail and hook the side frame . most newer trailers have a steel strap running the length of the trailer.
sorry for late response, i would if i could. this trailer has no cuff underneath if i was to go behind the rub rail. Ill have to take a video of it one day.
Good video, but you absolutely DO NOT angle straps on front and back. That’s just asking for loose straps down the road. Contradicting to what you said about keeping your straps straight…
I recognize that curve, that's by the exit going to route 309 towards tamaqua in Pennsylvania. Non stop there's always accidents there because of speeding alone. Hope everybody is safe, blessings to you 🙏
