Follow a heavy haul trucking team from Texas all the way to Ontario as we transport a big oversized load using a very long trailer! OT0VFALNBZRV6VH1 QXYI7AVBDXIGAEEE VCTGG9FDQKSRJANU ZC7J412I41QQRESC WXL6RQ4MTPJSCIEJ QPC7JODEVBI2JYUU
I was just thinking, US is full of nice wide and straight highways and interstates and what not, and then they send him through a tight urban area? Surely there must me be a better way to get to Canada than Downtown Mt. Vernon?
Well I, for one, like your new Pete, Doug. I especially like "seat cover". What a cutie! That'll make the long, boring trips a lot better. Bon chance, mon brave!
Your professionalism and your courtesy is top shelf. Even saying please the guy going under the neck. Taking pride in your profession these day's is had to come by. Welcome to the business side of trucking. Ownership now you have got skin in the game.
Stress,stress oh so stressful! The trouble with Lucky Banana videos is I get sucked in, I’m right there with you, and man it’s a good job you’v got “Quackers No.8” keeping a good look-out over everybody! But you’ve got to get the pup some Sun-block for his nose out the window!? He’s lovely, glad to be with his dad out on the road! You’ll have to teach him to bark “keep on trucking!” He’s got the voice for it! You had a fantastic crew for this assignment! Eager to please and skilled at doing it - worth their weight etc! Oh super truck glad it’s worked out so well! So another fantastic video over and as I’ve said it once already KOT!
Nice looking truck ! Back in 1979 my dad custom ordered his truck from Peterbuilt it had a 3408 Cat with 18 speed he had a chrome swan up on the grab handle of the hood ! Looking out your windshield it's naked up on that grab handle you should add your own touch of class to that classy looking Peterbuilt !! A chrome swan would look awesome !!!
turning at an early intersection waiting for a fuse I focused on the sign advertising insurance as the truck came close to the pole. holding my breath watching this.
I'm also a truck driver, but i drove a small 8,5 tones Mitsubishi. I love to watch how overload loads are transported. It's just pure magic. Shoutout to overload truckers from USA. Shoutout from Poland.
Doug, thank you so very much for these videos. I am watching this as I sit by myu daughters bedside, after surgery from a stroke. So young. This video gave me a respite from the things I have been dealing with. I look for your videos. Thank you for the supreme effort, and just know you made my day. God Bless.
1:50:00 what a great team you have there - loving the new rig and what a load to start off with, excellent work everybody (edit) 2:10:25 well I wasn't expecting that, wondered why cranes were set up differently - excellent vid, thanks for all the work you put in to share this with us
Well done that man if that was done in England that would take a month with all the bull shit regulations from an. Old skool driver with 50yrs experience keep the videos comming thank you young man Reggie
17 years I've been hauling our dog all over Thailand. Just like Fred he was always looking at what was out there. This was a fine finish to Saturday night.
What is called a real trucker you're very humble you're very kind you know how to drive say the least .. and that's a badass truck I love the colors keep up the trucking and the videos great job!!!
AS ALWAYS WHAT A GREAT LONG RIDE , I APPRECIATE IT EVERY SINGLE TIME , GREAT TEAM WORK AND GREAT DRIVING , THANKS AGAIN SEE YOU ON THE NEXT ONE , CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW TRUCK AND YOUR NEW DOG !!! KEEP ONNN TRUCKING BRO !!!❤🎉
Congratulations on the new truck and especially the new puppy. "Fred" I had a basset hound "George" and he came with me everywhere LOL He actually loved going canoeing with me as I was fishing. Watching the whole video I can tell Fred is going to be a great friend and companion and you never know he might talk back to you in his own way :-)
Very good job I'm 83 years old and drove a truck for 55 years you have a my respect you are right slow and steady always wins safe trucking Jerry in Idaho USA
The secret to success is a big dose of experience plus a ton of patients in order to have a safe trip. I love your new purchase and pray for all your trips are safe!!!!
From a retired truck driver to you young man you are an amazing truck driver my hats off to you guys. Be safe out there have many many safe loads of safe trips. God bless bless you be safe.
Congratulations on your new rig and your new furry family member, I hope you enjoy many safe years and miles together. Always enjoy your videos , your jobs and your professionalism. Thank you !
If the dogs name is Fred, then I guess we should call you Snowman (for the younger crowd, thats a movie reference). lol Looks like a nice rig, thanks for the video!
OH BOY! Here we go again and with a nice new tractor to boot. This is the very longest truck I have ever seen and there are sure to be some problems along the way. Got a comfy chair, lots of coffee and snacks and my faithful German Shepherd right next to me. (Gotta have my dog for such a long trip.) So here we go. Glad I have the day off. Ha!
You need to love what you do and be proud of what you do. With all the risk and stress it doesn’t make sense to only do this for the money. If your heart isn’t in the job you won’t last in this game
Congratulations on the doggie! Very jealous you have a job where there is room for such a buddy in "your office". Will enjoy falling asleep to his video and then rewatch it tomorrow to make sure I didn't miss anything 😅
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 More like "soothing" - I know exactly what's going to happen: Truck that is long/wide/tall/heavy (sometimes all at once) makes its way from point A to B safely. I particularly enjoy whenever you have to stop traffic from multiple directions to make a corner. Best so far is still the right turn onto Woodroffe (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CJMpjjOWAfg.html)
Happy to see you finally have your own mule. Let's hope in the near future you earn more and have a successful future with your pup. Make memories Doug. When you get to my age you'll realize what I mean.
Thanks for letting us see your videos they are very interesting to watch how you transport big loads I like you telling what you are doing so please keep videos coming THANKS AGAIN Bob
7:05 You can always spot a professional rigging crew because they use spanner bars. Most crane op will skip that step because it's more work setting up.
Im fascinsted by the logistics and the skill in transporting such massive loads around but inhave to say, your truck is gorgeous!!! We dont have anything that big or beautiful in the UK, sadly.
LOL, people don't know till they've been there with a dog riding shotgun. Nice to see you Doug, I hope everything is going great for you with the new truck n companion. Take care my friend be safe out there.
Good for you. If you’re going to spend that much time on the road you really want to have the rig that maximizes your desired lifestyle and comfort along with your buddy. Great videos Doug. It is a real pleasure to watch a skilled master do his job. The sightseeing to places we mere mortals would never get to is an added benefit. Your use of multiple cameras and drone video is truly top notch. Safe drives and enjoy the new to you rig.
Congratulations!!! Impressive. And that pup is adorable. Took care of a family that had one named "Lightening". The very best to you and your new friend.😊
Congratulations on the new truck and the new passenger.. It's a different ballgame owning a truck versus running a truck but very much worth it.. Safe travels, sir..
Doug, congratulations on your new truck, and also for your new navigator, Fred. Been looking forward to the unveiling of your new ride, and new adventures in heavy hauling.
Wooow congrats for your new truck and new dog sir!!!its so nice to see some people turning their heads on your huge load stay safe always sir and keep on trucking!!!watching here from philippines 😊🫰❤️
Awesome to see the new rig. SO happy for you to turn owner-op !! Did not know about the dog rule , it makes sense with a large company and widwe variety of dog owners. Having that wonderful pooch alongside, will make your days sooo much better !! You bought a truck that is very popular in BC and on here on Vancouver Island !
Doug...congrats, on your new Pete, becoming an Owner/Driver and continuing with Bellemare Transport. I had to laugh, when you happily said "I love it" after the tight turns in Mt. Vernon....that's exactly what I would exclaim after some tight manoeuvers within similar rural city detours with the mobile cranes & boom dollies I used to deliver. (too bad, I didn't have any fancy go-pros, insta360's or drones....it would have made for some great shots too). Speaking of cameras.....have you ever driven away, forgetting the camera on the tri-pod? I was wondering about that as you did the truck-stop maneuvering "show" in West-Memphis. One last thing, if you ever hook up to a flat-bed or van-semi trailer, with landing-gear brackets....be very careful about the shiny tail-light bar of your tractor, when making turns:....back in early 1990 when I bought my 2nd truck (Navistar 8300) at Cornwall Truck Center, I also had them install such a chrome tail-light bar...so after picking it up at the dealer, I happily bob-tailed up to Alexandria in my new ride to hook-up a loaded tri-axle van trailer and when I made the right-turn from 34 onto 43, I heard a nasty "crunch".....crumpled light-bar!!! (it was the dealer's error, so they replace it....but just judging from the few shots in your video....IMHO, you might incur the same problem (the light-bar idea still works, but they have to be in sections, and the ones that act as mud-flap brackets, must be mounted a bit more forward (1 inch) and cannot be as wide as the duals....or you mount the full-width bar below the frame-rails, but not flush with the frame-rail ends....to get more clearance (that is what I ended up doing).
Good lord I do a lot ofoversize equipment but you’re a different breed. One day I’ll venture into bigger but I’m still working my way up and getting more experience.
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 yea I learn a lot from watching your videos. I know our company does 11 axle. Don’t know if that’s where I want to end up. I kind of like our 9 axle setups or a heavy 7
Thanks for your latest video. Great looking truck and puppy. Just started pulling double with rv and felt comfortable towing it after watching your process for cornerning long rigs. I have hauled a few long trailers for sometime and fell good about hauling doubles as a non cdl driver. Thanks for all your videos they are great.
Congrats on the long hood! Man I miss having a manual. These new auto's just don't feel like trucking anymore. YT let me know last week about your channel. So happy they finally did!
Hi Doug. Love your new truck, and the colour scheme. And your lovely bassett hound, he's gorgeous. The reason I don't have one is because I do prefer cats, mainly the Mainecoon variety. I have a cat that's 23lbs (13kg) in weight. I always promised myself that I'd get a bassett and name him Fred, as we have a cartoon strip in the Daily Mail, which apparently has been running for over 60 years. And its basically about what the dog thinks about his owners. The pyramid looks amazing. Could spend a week in there just browsing. Have to smile at Fred, looks to be teething😊. We too have a pyramid in Stockport, and the flights coming into Manchester Airport use it as a marker, as its part of the flight path as the planes come in. Bad day when its market day and you have to drive a big rig through the middle of it, It was bad enough when my hubby took a wrong turn, we ended up right in the middle of a market in a French town. Hardly any room to turn around. It wasn't good🤣. Normally, the local police close down the local streets so it wouldn't happen, but not on this occasion. The pilots were brilliant, especially Elka(?), she was awesome at her job. That's the type of job I would love to have done way back.
Hi Doug and Fred congratulations on the beautiful black peterbilt one amazing rig so good luck for the future being an owner driver and wishing you safe miles and that was one tough haul to start with but your true professionalism shines through as always Doug cheers from tim in queensland australia ( keep on trucking ) ps such an amazing job by your pilot drivers especially the lady doing the rear steering absolute awesome effort
Felicitation pour le nouveau truck et le compagnon de route. Je me demandais si on allait te revoir et maitenant on comprend pourquoi. Encore un super video merci de nous faire partager ton beau travail. Tres belle equipe et beau travail encore une fois.
