@chrisaskfotiy967 11 месяцев назад

That old car was a 1964 Ford Falcon. Most had a 170 Cubic Inch inline 6 cylinder with 3 on the tree. I had one and drove it for a few years. Bosselman's has been there forever and is a name brand, they are in almost all the bigger fleet networks for fuel and repairs.

@jakebecker9353 11 месяцев назад

You were one of the many trucker vloggers I watched to inspire me before I decided to get into driving and now I run flatbed, that’s what I wanted from the jump. Now you’re the only one I still watch. Great content as always

@zates2272 11 месяцев назад

Starting CDL class Monday. Binge watching Lex truckin… thanks for the content. Very entertaining.

@tjbrower 11 месяцев назад

You had so much room going through the doors and it was clearly going to fit but you were still worried lol. Also had your 4 ways on the whole time you were hooking up and not even in the truck. Safe and thorough is great, but sometimes it can be a fault too!

@scottied67 11 месяцев назад

Yep, I always turn off my lights and 4ways whenever I hook up the electrical pigtail. Had a truck before that would blow fuses for the lights if the lights were on and you (un)hooked up the pigtail

Hey Alex! Thank you for producing such amazing content! It inspired me to become a trucker as well. I live in Europe and got my rigid truck licence two months ago. Now I study for the "cab-over" licence, otherwise known as CE licence (I know these european trucks are smaller compared to USA torpedo styled trucks 😂 ). I really enjoy your POV style video's! Thank you for helping me find my dream job! Greetings from the Netherlands! God bless you ❤

@@gosuosu6977 I honestly want to know what is the appeal of this guy's videos. I tuned in to find out what the secret is.

I'm like, wtf.

@ChrisDavis333 11 месяцев назад

Can you do a pay breakdown video working for GP Transco, and compare it to your previous jobs? It’s really weird the path you took is exactly the path I have planned and I just stumbled upon your channel randomly and when you revealed GP Transco as your new carrier I was genuinely surprised. GP is the company I’ve always had my eyes on, idk anyone else working for them so you’re the only person I could ask. Love your videos, also as a fellow skinny person I can relate to the struggle. I’m 6’5 160 pounds.

You will not loose your brakes they drag to lock up with low air pressure. But new seals are correct way to go. Spring applied Air Release brakes.

Don't remove them. Those are not rubber ones. Those are special, don't remove them. And then you put a rubber one in there, those got more chance of leaking. Can't believe you did that.

@scottied67 11 месяцев назад

I believe it... What else can anyone expect from a driver who won't drive past 3 pm, is more concerned with the trailer color matching the tractor, has 4 gallons of windshield wash and an equal amount of piss bottles, needs a bolt cutter to remove a trailer door seal....?

He had to find locations by looking at a paper map, then calling and asking the company for directions and writing it all of that down. Now you just put the address in a small screen and it guides you the entire way 😂🤣 Yo when I get that age ima be so pissed at the kids that have way cooler stuff to use :/
