You are one of the big inspirations into why I became a trucker, I even started a youtube channel. Stay safe out there and good Luck on your next journey
I have to say I really appreciate your videos bro, I've been watching since your training and started your career. During that time you inspired me to quit my delivery job and go to trucking school now a driver. Even though I'm currently not driving, your journey helped me through mine. Much appreciation and respect bro 🙏
@@chez8239I enjoy your videos bro 👌 quick question, when you were with swift did you go into New Mexico? Am thinking of applying with them but don’t really wanna go down to those states like Arizona and New Mexico! (am from cali) And am talkimg about the 11 western region since that’s pretty much alot of companies seem to have rn!
I just wanna say thank you for giving me the courage to go back to trucking. I got my CDL 5 years ago but I surrendered it 3 years ago. Going to get my CDL again sadly.. but it’s truly what I like to do. Thank you Chez!!! Love your videos so much. Gonna be so sad when you’re gone 😢
wow thats great !! unfortunately its not for me well at least Otr is not haha, I’m glad you actual figured out what you really wanted! never know I might realize the same thing as you lol time will tell(:
@Justinanthonyg I did the same thing I listened to too many people and not go what I liked to do but also I didn't really have much confidence in myself I want to get my CDL but automated would suite me better than manual. My credit is poor not too many places trains in automated so far CR England and Prime are the only places not sure what schools have it and it's hard to go to training when not having a vehicle so much happened between 2016 to 2020 losing friends and family members and had to give up a vehicle do to COVID-19 and not having extra income to pay car payments, insurance, gas and maintenance I do hope I can get my CDL back again.
awesome video man. I appreciate the longer videos because it feels like we are there with you. I can understand why you want to do local and getting to be home every week. hope you're ready to start unloading the trucks yourself 🤣. also hope you don't mind going the same routes and seeing the same scenery trip. I heard local makes more money though. I don't know how much you make now but I hope you make more than you do now when you start doing local. great video and see you next time!
haha yes that is true but hey anything that can put me home every night I’ll do whatever (: being out in the road and not having a life is just not it lol thanks for watching !!🙏💯
Oh Chez is back didn’t realize you uploaded 3 weeks ago, after you stop uploading I said how will I get my trucking content now? So I got my CDL and became a trucker, I’m only 2 months into my career, all jokes aside, I was debating on being a trucker, but you made that decision easy and so far I’m enjoying it so thank you and it’s great seeing you uploading again
Im glad everything is working out for you brotha😇 trucking aint so bad but it all just how it works out for each individual person I hope nothing but the best for you🙏 stay safe out there!💯
They overpackage many things I buy. Big boxes 90% bigger than the space needed. They need to use more padded envelopes and send them in the mail if they are too much trouble or disincentivized among the workers to make use of. We end up with a garage full of brand new boxes we feel responsible for using. Maybe re-useable bins are in order, ones that fold flat, perhaps optionally or for a small reward early adopter fee.
I believe if you read the signs at that truckstop TA, its fair game parking. No security or enforcement. So people leave dropped trailers and such in spaces. Lots of truck havn't moved in a while from my experience being there.
@@phorqueselantro3566 our beaches will never be the same brother. It’s sad because some places still look like a war zone.. nearly everyone got electricity back in about a week- I drove around the day right after it hit and almost all the roads were cleared of debris, there were rarely roads that were impassable here in Cape Coral / ft Myers . Damned good job by every citizen and officials.. God bless the 27000 power workers from across 27 states , and especially to the Puerto Rican power crews, yes I see your 10 flags on your trucks and can hear your music from far away! When you’re out of power, and you hear reggaeton music, then believe that you will get power soon.. those Puerto Ricans are beasts!🇺🇸🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
@@phorqueselantro3566 bro, all my banana plants got knocked over a couple of them were 20 Ft high and barely begin to have flowers… blue javas, nam wants, cavendish …. Sad bro…☹️
My boy! You came back quick! I got my first ticket ever in Amarillo Texas back in 2013 never been back lol. Chicken express has bomb ass chicken! Hahaha. I’m local driver down here in socal and I’m getting back in the car scene as well. Can’t wait to see what you get. I have been looking at the BMW M340. Just waiting to pull the trigger on one and trade in my Subaru Sti
hahaha ! you got that right !! and sheesshhh beamer boyyy👀 I can’t wait to reveal what I got stay tune for that car content tho😇 you looking at the new M340?! they highkey go hard tbh💯😭
The biggest issue with trucking today is the brokers. They have jobs that pay good but if they don’t know you they won’t get you any of the good loads. We just need to find a way to get them out of the loop.
I totally agree with you! the more drivers take cheap loads the more lower they will go because they see that its possible for them to give such a low rate🤦🏻♂️ I keep telling my boss to not bite the low rate but he still does it and its really not helping the situation but yes I wish that we just work direct with customers instead of having brokers being middleman 🙄
Man once you go local your going to miss being in a sleeper😂 and you better have good patience with traffic. I drive locally in LA and it’s ok for me but when I want to nap the day cab is too damn small🙄😂
Ima take a fat guess and say you got a Tesla lol. Could be wrong, a 400Z would be dope. Chez gonna be pulling up to the meets like the Jetsons. When I was training with Schneider, we were running 287 every other day. Amarillo to Dallas.
Bro where the hell you been lol it’s felt like forever since you’ve posted a video. But be safe out there bro I’ll be getting CDL finally & start my own RU-vid channel.
Yo, Glad to see another vid. I'm currently in the process lol. I. Running 15000miles a month in the 389. How're ya? I'm in Plymouth, Utah At the moment.
@@chez8239 You the same! I'm in Burley, Idaho now I was apparently 82,220 with the Sack holders I was hauling lmao never got stopped. I'm parked until tomorrow.
I cruise at 70 but if speed limit is below that I always run 5mph over speed limit to be really knocking those miles out except work zone off course have to respect that part😇
What up Chez 💪 you must have a lot of Swift drivers watching your videos. I was thinking about it the other day, why did your channel get recommended to me in the first place because I had never watched any trucking videos? I think it was those orientation videos during truck school for Swift! So then RU-vid started recommending your videos about Swift. Kind of crazy huh? Anyways love your videos!
How do you make your go pro 8 battery last long my brand new hero 8 dies after 20 mins. Also I’m starting out at swift and you’ve inspired me to start my trucking vloggin channel
Wassup chez how ya been brother I’m glad u still trucking what are u doing for Halloween and stay safe out there brother be safe keep these vids coming
Ayee chez nice video as always will you record the local stuff if you do local? Damn the tires though not safe for the winter for sure 😮 How’s the truck holding up now since the rebuild? How is the snow driving is it pretty scary I drive for prime been with them since January kind of scared for the first winter 😅
I appreciate all the content brother I truly do , but don’t you think by now ENOUGH IS ENOUGH AMERICA wouldn’t be AMERICA if it wasn’t for us truckers you clearly have a voice in this trucking industry! YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE! Help the ones you say you care for take a stand with us! Enough is ENOUGH Its to many of us . We have to shut the country down until we get what we deserve! We have to come together ! We make AMERICA MOVE! Until we get what we DESERVE ALL TRUCKS WILL NOT MOVE! Spread the word to all truckers. Strength in number’s Strength in TRUCKERS! Every other profession is allowed to STRIKE. ITS OUR TIME WE STRIKE WE SHUT AMERICA DOWN ! We DESERVE better! ALL WE’RE ASKING FOR IS WHAT WE DESERVE! JANUARY 8th 2024 TRUCKERS SHUT IT DOWN ! Take a stand with us!
Hopefully, your lady don't start acting funny when you're running local and home everyday. Nonetheless, whatever you're attempting to accomplish in life, may it be a success.
Chez I feel like if you go to a company where you just a driver making .80 to a dollar a mile and not worrying about gas and repairs you would love otr again !!
I think so too but at this point I think I really wanna be home everyday, maybe I’ll take a break from otr tbh with you, I felt like I had no life for the past 2 years being out on the road 😅
I just have not seen u latly ı did not know if u where still driveing nither ı was just looking to see u driveing so do good to best of lock toin what u do after this .
CHEZ PLEASE before you go make a video of how you get pay here n what you pay out of yourself, to be honest I was planning to purchase another truck n find a driver for that truck n do what this company do with you to be fair enough for him and me.
that video is coming up! I just have to take some notes and get myself a little bit organize to explain it well but stay tune ! how this company run things is great for drivers, makes me get motivated to actually work harder since my boss is fair with me with everything😇
its what a lot of my viewer’s requested😅 I can make them short but I won’t be able to actually vlog the things I do when it comes to picking up loads and delivering it
I pick a load on Thursday for Katy TX and they also paid me 4,000 bad, very bad. Weight 39,000.00 I took 5 south bad decision, too many hills I picked at white City OR overnight at almost Bakersfield n that took me the all day speed limit in Cali ridiculous my second day I stopped at flagstaff AZ my 3rd day overnight at Memphis TX n today is my 4rd day makeup to caty.
oh man!! I feel your pain! I guess all us truckers are going through it😭 and yea man I normally dont like cali because of that 55 speed limit and running through cali traffic is no fun either🤦🏻♂️😂
Oregon, Colorado, California They are too busy standing in the road, Burning buildings to hold jobs. 🤣The ones that do have jobs cant get to most of them because of this.
