If your thinking of coming to Prime Inc or want to get your CDL license. I honestly believe Prime is a solid company to start your trucking journey. Make sure when you fill out the online application @ www.primeinc.com put my driver code STREXA on page 2 of the application when it ask who referred you. Thanks for watching my video 🙂🙏 I answer everything through my trucking vlogs!

Rex I pray my training goes well and after I do my first year in trucking I’m going to switch to prime Inc.

Blue Beacon blew the coating off the frame of my truck in 2020. They then lied and denied they did it. Unqualified staff that lie to mitigate their negligence. I will never go there again.

@sheldonmcclaflin8904 Год назад

More problems to new modern engines are do to pressure washing. To many sensors. They are water resistance not pressure washing. DO NOT PRESSURE WASH YOUR ENGINE. A regular garden hose with a fine mist and a engine wash, not degreaser.

@malikdigger4544 Год назад

Rex never had engine problem before untill semi wash station did engine wash know like u said probably water got in ECU its best do ur own engine bsy & 19:07 I was jamming to beat while working that's good traffic music

Here’s a suggestion, I’m sure you know that you can live view a GoPro. So purchase a magnetic GoPro mount, start up your GoPro live view, stick the camera somewhere on the dome lid cover or on the catwalk rail, and tada you now have a top view of the trailer when backing up

@jasonwalters-k1v Год назад

Hey, I have been watching your videos because i'm interested in going back over the road again with Prime Tanker Division after over five years out the game. They're requiring a "refresher" training of 35K miles. It seems like you kind of just puddle jump around and 35K miles would take forever via Tanker..lol...whats your average miles per week? If you don't mind be asking.

@truckingwithrex Год назад

The last 8 weeks I’ve averaged just over 1900 miles per week. With the refresher they add your miles and your trainers together. So you’d get around 5,000 miles per week with a trainer. Guessing about 4-5 weeks depending. Hope this helps!

@albertotognoni4819 Год назад

Engine check lights caused by?

I try to do it asap (ain’t trying to hangout at these receivers all day). I was trained to ALWAYS strap because it’s possible the hoses can disconnect from the pressure. 🤞🤙

Windshield is getting cleaned

@brianjirish Год назад

The one thing I've learned to not take for granted when trucking; Is to take those nice showers when possible. There's just nothing like it. A few things that I was taught about engine wash. Only cleaned the engine when engine has been turned off and is completely cool, use a safe cleaning product and never EVER spray water with high pressure. I hope this info helps others down the road. Thanks Rex for another awesome video! Be safe!

@patrickeppler6438 Год назад

Just curious. By using Prime's card are you getting a discount? Could you use your own mileage credit card for fuel and maint, etc and still be eligible for any discounts that Prime has negotiated nationwide? Thinking for making trucking my second career. Learning tons from your channel.

Yes using the card issued to me by Prime I get massive discounts on fuel, def, truck washes, parts etc.

@nathanheaverlo9626 Год назад

I help run a shop next to the Blue Beacon in Walcott Iowa, we always tell drivers to never, ever, get an engine wash. Too many computers on today’s trucks, we’ve had to go over there and fix trucks that had an ECM soaked by high pressure water. Or if we can’t fix it, they end up having the truck towed to a dealer. Most connectors on those ECMs can barely handle garden hose water pressure. Hopefully it’s nothing too serious, hoping for the best Rex!

@derrickeasterday4066 Год назад

Let's get it

@christrella3134 Год назад

Bay Bridge, Chesapeake Bay Bridge, GW, whatever. We had a system we could remotely check on the engine. Prime probably has it. If it is anything serious? They'll tell you to stop and take it to a shop. That's the good side of all that technology in your engine. Down side is the lights on and loss of power.

@anthony1636 Год назад

Always power wash the engine myself. And that does not include the wiring.

@creigshockley Год назад

I've loaded glycerin 2 times at the Hudson Tank terminal. The guys over there are pretty cool and an easy process you just have to get a picture of the chart off the side of the tank which is difficult. Also make sure they close all your valves.

@samf3416 Год назад

Hey Rex: A reminder, whenever you are trucking to the northeast, we get sporadic severe t storms with extreme gusts, and hail and lots of rain which will only last 1 hr or so. the day can pretty as anything and in a blink of eye the heavens open up. it usually starts round march and goes till sept or october. then you'll deal with tons and tons of snow.

Im not a truck driver, however i was hoping to get some advice. I'm going on my first solo, long distance drive of 300mi soon. How do I keep from getting tired or losing concentration whilst driving? My car is 2010, i have aux but no cruise control and very few other modern features. Is there anything i should check on my car before setting off?

@truckingwithrex Год назад

Keep your phone mounted away from you or keep in your pocket to minimize distractions. I would check all my fluids, oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, radiator fluid. Also I would set all my personal vehicle tires to about 36psi and keep a set of jumper cables! Hope this helps!

@@MrBigR928 I ran 3 straight weeks on food grade without going home. Asked to go home so I could switch back to inedible. I averaged $2300 after all expenses on the food grade side. The inedible side at that time was averaging $2100 also go home every 7-10days without even asking because prime has a tank wash in Springfield they own and we have a huge contract for inedible out of Aurora MO which is 55min away from my apartment!
