Never overestimate the weather. It can get bad fast.

Jay it's Eric! I was in South Carolina today waiting to deliver, the middle bay was clear, this cop pulled in the spot, this not-so SWIFT driver just backed in without paying attention and crunch! I have it all on video too! I was late for my delivery, I was laughing so hard.

@TRUCKINWITHJ495 Год назад

Here is a secret with the idle function… if you pull your trailer knob out but leave the tractor knob in it won’t shut down.

@kurtgobang9488 Год назад

Glad you got into a company that you wanted. Stay safe out here brother.

@danelicker317 Год назад

If you don't feel safe driving due to the weather, pull over and stop until conditions improve. No amount of freight is worth your life.

@lesterobryant55 Год назад

You can be off duty in the truck. When your front curtains are closed, then the whole cab is considered Sleeper Berth! But you don't have to go to Sleeper unless you choose or in the Berth!

Anytime your in the actual sleeper log sleeper berth unless u have the full wrap curtains then u can extend the sleeper berth to the whole cab. Anytime u leave the truck to shower or get food log off duty

Hi Jay, have you watched big rig Becca? She's a Cascadia and will probably help you out with were things are in the cab. I know what it's like when you're used to another make and jump Into something that you never been in. Hope it helps 👍

So when you stop and eat lunch and stuff like that - I believe you hit just the on duty button in samsara and it’ll automatically start counting the 30 minute break.

@Sean-oo3yd Год назад

Put your truck in performance mode push the end where the shifter is. Use your Jake you should only use brakes in town. Even then I barely use my brakes. You can definitely tell you’re a rookie. Lol that shit isn’t even bad put your big boy pants on. Lol and be careful putting trailer brakes on in that weather you don’t want your trailer brakes to freeze.

The abs is a freightliner fuse problem. Learn the fuse and remember it.

@seansturm3266 Год назад

They used to call em Freight shakers lol

@johnmagill7714 Год назад

If you don't feel safe driving, even just a little bit. Don't drive. No load is worth it. Put it in a message on your on board system of your trucks computer to the company. Then if they still try to force you to drive. The DOT can come down on them, not you.

@keiths4109 Год назад

Hey bro it’s still not summer.😂😂

@AdamGbl95 Год назад

The ABS thing is normal I think. I'm at Crete and every newer freightliner I've had the abs light come on and off. Freightliners have got to be the most uncomfortable truck I've driver. I don't like the seat position to the steering wheel and pedals and the seats are rock hard if you don't have a cushion

@pridemizzle1565 Год назад

I bet the Freightliner just has a different gear ratio that’s probably more for fuel efficiency

@GoldPhoenix Год назад

Adding to that most companies are gonna gear between 2.64 and 3.08. Taller gears mean lower RPMs at cruise. You won’t climb mountains fast but overall fuel mileage is better

@a-nus Год назад

yeah i stay around 55-58 and consistently get 9.5-10 mpg

@MidlifeTrucker-ThomBell Год назад

GP Transco was your next step? I’m going to stay tuned to see how you do there. I’m at Cheeseman, I show every pay statement on my channel. Six figures, W-2, no shortage of freight. It’s important to find a company with good culture, home time, equipment, and compensation. I’m interested to learn your opinions of GP Transco.

@robertgardner4508 Год назад

Can't believe you didn't know about sleeper birth status... haha. Thought that one was a no-brainer lmao. But either way it doesn't really matter if you're in "sleeper" or "Off-duty" since they're in a way the same thing, just as long as you're not violating HOS. Stay safe, driver.

@RidingWithJay Год назад

I knew about sleeper berth status but apparently they aren’t the same thing if you get out of the truck your supposed to switch to off duty even if you go in to the bathroom

@robertgardner4508 Год назад

@@RidingWithJay well yes that’s what they want you to do, but really they’re both “OFF DUTY” statuses. I’ve put of habit left myself on sleeper multiple times when I went on home time and nobody said a damn thing to me ever, and I wasn’t in any HOS violations. 🤣

Jay, you texted me saying you don't want to work for me? I haven't got any work for you my nephew and his friend have filled the job I had for you. I'm not handling mid-west shipment right now and you didn't want east coast N-S traffic. I've got 7 months before I turn my attention away from trucking, at that point I will finally be a success at a career I will have done for 38 years. The deal I made to you got your attention, you can stay in touch if you want? Like I said though, I wish you good luck and don't play in tornado alley! You got my # text and say hi once in a while. My little company has made both me and my partner very well off! I can say I will retire a millionaire! Keep safe nice haircut btw!

@SatyrnGameNSoftwareReviews Год назад

It’s not a power reason for why thé FL is slower, or climbs hills worse. It’s the gearing, they gear for fuel economy; not top speed or climbing advantages.

@uifturis Год назад

If youre that scared of a little snow. Hang up the keys boy

@johnparflifts Год назад

What’s the pay like there

@SatyrnGameNSoftwareReviews Год назад

They start at like 58cpm for OTR. And you can average 2750-3000 miles or more (some drivers can reach 4k miles), depending on how much you want to work.

No, that's ABSOLUTELY not true. Read the FMCSA for yourself. According to an actual FMCSA auditor, I asked that exact question because a DOT cop tried that sht with me. Sleeper birth is an off dyluty status. The reg that they keep giving is a "definition" of sleeper birth, NOT how it's calculated. That being said, you're a company driver, so you should do as they want you to. Most DOT officers try to "interpret" the FMCSA to meet whatsoever they want.

@truckercowboyed2638 Год назад

Nope sleeper berth is in the bunk, if you're on the front seat your off duty ....it does actually matter.... technically if you have to get up to use the bathroom or something you're supposed to switch to off duty then switch back when you return to the bunk....

@froy204 Год назад

You always go into sleep birth, if not driving it's off duty not driving
