I miss driving my old 18sp Long Nose Pete. Put a million miles down. They are actually easy if you go thru a great school. I went through a 6 month course w/ job placement & I ran Box, Flats, Fridge, Extra Wide/ O.Loads, you name it. Loved the job but hated the hours & away from family. It's a great job for a single gal or guy. But to make money, you gotta be moving & with log books & time restraints. It's kinda hard to do unless you luck out & get Gov. Contracts. 🤟
Been watching your videos for the past week at night before I crash, helps me fall asleep better than 3 hour loop of a rainstorm hahaha. I’m really considering this as a career! Thank for your service and content!
Hey fella, youre an awesome driver! Gr8 pete too.😂 I was a driver too, long n lanky i sat like you, n wldve love my stick where yours is. I dont get how ppl can critizing u for it. Keep recording your trips. COM'ON You Rule 😅❤ and youre perfect just the way you are.safe travels man. God bless ya
Actually going to get my cdl permit and start running with my dad driving a 1996 pete with a 475 cat and an 15 speed because of him and watching your videos finally decided what I am going to do
When I was 18, I worked at a LTL freight dock loading and unloading trailers 10-12 hours a day. The company would have paid me to get my CDL, but being young and stupid, I never took the opportunity, even though I wanted to be an OTR driver, because I thought I'd have time in the future to do it. Now, I'm 46, I have an 8 and 12 year old daughter and a wife with stage 4 colon cancer so that pretty much means I wasted my chance. But, I get to follow your trips and pretend I'm in the passenger seat so...not all is lost! Keep 'em coming dude, we love what you're doing!
Can't get enough of that diesel purrr. Watching this over in the UK in my baby Scania wishing I had the sound of your rig all day! Would give anything to drive in the USA 🇺🇸 thank you for getting me closer to it by sharing these awesome videos and keeping old school trucking alive. Much respect! 👊
These videos are so good because the truck has a lovely rumble and also because you drive her with such finesse that she never sounds strained or hurt.
@@olivertaylor8788 Fuck no. Don't teach young kids to drive this low, with a shifter this high. Completly ridiculous and can only be dangerous, brings no actual benefits. Yes his shifts were smooth but that is something you TRAIN for, you don't get taught those things, you learn from experience.
Welcome to Nashville! Glad you had to go left at the 24 split at 15:00. Going right is a nightmare with merging! And you got a piece of what just before rush hour feels like on 24 East. Best advice, pick the lane you need to be in and stay there when traveling that stretch.
As a former con truck driver cheers I love your stick and how you do not abuse your rig, pro all the way. For those who want to know what con means? It is a short version of concentrate .
You are the best brother. I miss the days of running up and down the east coast in a cdl box truck. I’m getting back into it next week in a non cdl truck but can’t wait to be rollin again. Just jammin out and drivin. Stay safe
Yeah I definitely do. It’s been in the blood since I was a kid. I have been a volunteer fireman for 24 years and friends said I should go career. I said no I’m hoping to get big truckin sometime in my life. I see what toll it takes on the family so I have been trying to do what’s best for them.
In my personal opinion this camera angle in the middle I guess that you started off with in this video and head mount camera are the best angles. I like when able to see the trailer when turning. Also like hearing and seeing the truck going through tight towns and crazy turns. Then that jake. Don’t even get me going. Good videos man keep up the work.
Like the channel and content. I haven't driven a truck in over 15 years but I still love it. It doesn't make sense but I guess like they say once you get diesel in you're veins it's always there.
Oh ya great view! Got the entire thing now, the tip of the hood with complete dash and love to see the foot action and shifting learned a lot on this video!
Great content, and channel! Refreshing to see a younger driver WITH old school truck driver skills! 30+ yr gas tanker yanker here, I share your channel with other drivers, they like it! Stay safe and strong! Be on the side watchin...
To be old school he needs to get his butt up off the floor and sit up so he can see. My dad put in over 35 years over the road and taught me that you never sit that low no matter if it's a 18 wheeler or your every day driver.
@@gelatinejaap they say its more comfortable because your stretched out. BUT in my opinion its not safe as you cant see the end of your hood like you should.
@@gallennorris782 Ah okay maybe its more comfortable, i would not know. When driving big equipments i always find visibility around you to be top priority.
@@gelatinejaap visibility has always been most important to me when running equipment and driving. Notice how he had to poke his head up to see the intersections and when driving around the parking lot, unacceptable in my book. I dont deny that there are bad drivers in cars but part of the problem is truckers sitting on the floor and not seeing out front like they should.
You can see the guy keeps busy, driving, cleaning his truck uploading videos,, all that takes time, he doesn't need to reply,, thats a lot of replying. I just enjoy his videos, read most comments and say a couple of my own. KEEP ON TRUCKING! ✌
Ah yes, the Road Wizard wielding his Staff of Diesel Combustion. He took the driver's seat out for this one, polishing his Instrument Drive Rules (IDR) skills.
Some people want to get vaccinated, some people don't, some people like long gear shifters, some people don't, I guess it's all about what you like and what you want to have in your life, even if sometimes it makes very little sense.
To be honest with you it makes the shifting feel a whole lot smoother. I love having an extended shifter. It litterally makes every gear you throw feel like butter
Chill video!!! “High Strung “ straight mashin down the highway singing her song!!!! Love that shit bro!!! Keep doing it bro and we will definitely see you on the next one!!!! CMON 😎✌️
This is the sweetest view ever!!!! I love this. We rollin' hard! It's funny how you looked back at the camera in the beginning. You had a look like... "Hey! What are doing back there." Lol.
Love that long Pete and his sound....escpecially under load :) For me who is living in EU its just a dream of truck. Long, black, damn loud. Thats a definition of proper truck! Take care of ur Pete Sir Btw. I see it do not matter which country, there are always ppl stickin to left lane with no reason :) ( i mean the pick up, not u)
I fly planes for a living and this is way more fun to watch. Mainly because I want to learn what wizardry it takes to learn what the shift pattern is on this rig. I've never set foot nor ass in a tractor of any kind so this is magic. Give me a link that teaches how to actually drive this thing. yes I know how to drive a regular manual transmission.
Im honestly curious, does the driver really keep track of all of those gauges?? There are 15 gauges on the accessory dash alone. Or is it only for looks?

The seat and shifter is personal preference, but i agree, smooth shifting comes with experience

And so far back..
13:19
he 13 minutes later
This is an equivalent of chopper on motorcycles hahahaha
and the shifter looks so loose also
