Pt. 2 | POV 43,000 Pounds Load | Truck Stop Showers 🥴 | Swift Rookie Year 

I’d definitely will it’s just that I heard so many people say its not even worth anymore since everyone just talks s**** on the cb but I’ll eventually get one thanks man(:

No its not i have been trucking for 15 years and i have never had a CB its not necessary or that important especially with the technology today. All a CB is good for is listening to other truckers joke or cuss each other out if anyone tells you different they are lying. There’s apps out now that will broadcast weather updates for truckers without even having to touch your phone or if your with a company like swift and i know you left so I’m not sure if they do but most big carriers will call you if the weather conditions are getting worse around you to inform you or to inform you about traffic conditions

@@guardian1582 definitely recommended. It’s saved my ass when my cell failed.

@@guardian1582 You're full of it. Your google maps or truckers path, etc. They ain't going to inform you of any kind of cops stationed running radar, accidents, etc. If an actual user does not report it and, sometimes you may lose cell data or your maps just freak out. They don't do it automatically. Sure you don't *have* to have a CB radio but you should. Even if it's a lot of chitter chatter, they're good to have because there are things your cellphone are not going to tell you, that ONE guy on the CB radio might inform you and other drivers of, and you get a heads up. CB will have it's moments it saves your ass, and you can talk to other people if you're bored, whatever. Again, you don't have to have a CB if you don't want but I definitely think it's an essential tool that will come in handy in certain times. Hell if your google maps, garmin or whatever makes you unsure, ask someone on the CB and they might have a more comfortable answer for you.

@@chez8239 yea that's why I don't have one. It's really unnecessary. U have a smartphone u have the INTERNET. something that didn't exist when CBs first came out

nice im glad I can help ! and thanks for watching !🙏🏽

that would be nice

Thank you!!🙏🏽

@@chez8239 😍😍

If the load is being t-called they have to go inside the truck stop, for the certified paper copy of the weights, if over 34,000 lbs. I wish they had it to where they could be printed out right on the scale.

every company is different bro

Pretty much all truck drivers get paid per mile except the local guys who just do trips around a city. Those guys usually make 25-30/hr.

tbh just keep learning as much as you can because everything get’s a lot easier once you learn the flow of the job, only 4 months being solo and it feels like I’m just driving regular everyday😂 don’t stress too much it could sometimes get frustrating at first

@@chez8239 thank you for the advice. I will keep the tips in mind. Reefer it is!!! 😂😂🤣

Go to salt lake city Utah academy!

I always get lost lmao

man gotta love dave 😂👍

@@chez8239 yup

yessir

ehhh tbh even if I wanna leave I really don’t wanna pay that student loan out of my pocket, $6k if I dont stay with them for a year, so might just stick with it get my year and get me a truck🤔

@@chez8239 do a lot of research and talk to other lease/Owner OPs before you get your own truck, it can be a bigger headache and your responsible for everything, your checks can be lower than what you get now, make sure there’s no balloon payment at end of lease, some succeed, some don’t, with swift it’s a hit miss, I think you’ll be ok by the time you hit your year, definitely 2 years, gl, be safe ! 👍

@@chez8239 damn good for you i dont think i can handle being o/o

@@stevenwatson9593 definitely will try to get from dealer first leasing a truck would probably my last stop because of weekly payments, I rather have monthly, that’s why I’m fixing credit rn and saving as much as I can🤔

Has nothing to do wit the video hush mr. Rusty waves man
