JBG,you will really appreciate Blue's ride after driving that Freightliner. Also the manual transmission, especially in LA area. Long live KW's and automated transmissions.
JBG - Hearing you say "I lost Ivan" reminded me of something I learned long ago when I was in the army and had to drive in convoys. Each driver is responsible for the vehicle BEHIND themselves. If the person leading can not clearly see the vehicle behind then the lead vehicle must slow, or stop, until the follower catches up, that is the only way to be sure that the convoy stays together. Hope Blue gets over her sickness soon.
curmudgeon66 that.. or in this case just being in radio/phone contact with loudspeaker wouldve done the job. its a new truck jbg! 2016 model. upgrade aye hah..
I remember as a little kid in the 90's in Saipan, my dad would always say he HATED driving automatic trucks! lol Out of all the trucks his company has issued him He loved his 97 ford Louisville daycab (AeroMax)!! before that he drove those Diamond Reo, White freightliner and a couple other trucks in the 80's!
Damn, they didnt do so great with that check-in. Typical Rental office sending out dirty trucks. I miss working for Penske sometimes, thanks for the throwback!
You can, the truck I was in when you would do it and engage the clutch brake (which was going bad) it took it a minute to be able to put it back in gear without grinding it. However yes you can. I wouldn't advise it in case you have to get moving quickly again.
What do you think of mods that convert a truck to a mobile home, that is also used to haul freight? They have a built in mini kitchen and bathroom with toilet and shower.
Most of the drivers when they drive a different truck they get the feeling something is missing or isnt right. I drive a 2012 Kenworth T700 and wouldnt give it up for the T680. I got used to my truck lol.
The rentals are always the cheapest tractors that you can rent. And yes most of them are not really clean inside because the rental folks always expects the renter to clean it before gets return. Go Johnny Be Good!
Why don't you shift by the RPM's and only use the clutch to stop and start ? You can hear the power of that Cat ! wow !!! click your heels together and say there's no place like home,there's no place like home !lol you should start out in 2nd or 3rd when bob tailing anyway .
hey J, just discovered your channel today, and I've been having a great time watching your videos. I'm no trucker (actually I do drive trucks, but just small ones, 5 to 8 tons) so, I want to know, is Blue an auto shift? I mean, you talk about not remembering on driving with clutch, that's why I'm asking you this... Thanks and keep up the good work!
JBG TRAVELS when I get older I wanna be a truck driver and a TH-camr like you I loved trucks and all I want for my birthday is to see you and steal your truck😂😂😂😂
Im the same way about sleeping places thats why I never go anywhere lol (not really) I would be sleeping in the seat of that truck until I got some heavy duty super dooper LYSOL disinfectant spray and soak the mattress with it .. gotta kill the cooties lol
Hey JBG, I have a question. Is everyone featured in this video a trucker? Ivan and that other dude don't seem to act like truckers. Thanks for the informative vids. Stay truck 💪

How long have you drove a truck & what companies have you drove for & how long? Things like that are interesting to me! I watch movies that have trucking too , I always wanted to go to a truck rodeo but never got to! Have you got to go to one? Or were you in one ever?

Feel stupid now LOL!!! I have been watching his videos & there interesting & fun to watch I feel like I am in the cab with him! I get that old time feeling again in my stomach like I did when I get excited on a trip!!!
Thats what a lot of companies did for a while. Most companies are realizing that automatics are completely crap. I'm not a driver yet, because I'm only 16, but I've grown up around the trucking industry. I've rode in an automatic transmission semi before, and I must say it is the worst thing I've ever rode in. I absolutely hated it. I'll take my clutch and shifter over an automatic any day
OH and one more thing.. aint it just like a woman to up and quit ya just to change your attitude about her?.... Makes you appreciate her more .. (thats a little known woman trick lol )
This is one of my favorite videos on TH-cam. I give it a watch every once in a while. So relaxing.

I hope blue get fix soon man and God bless you man
I agree, Blue is way better. Plus I like the interior of the T680 vs the Freightshaker aka Freightliner.
Hi John good luck with the rental from Westminster MD
Is it a Fuller Roadranger gearbox on that rental. I used to love that box here in the UK
Love it!
Good evening greetings Mr. crazy
you the Boss, JBG. I liked Jeff's cap. Peace, everyone.
In a semi, when coming to a stop, can you put it in neutral when you stop? I know you can do it in a car.
You can, the truck I was in when you would do it and engage the clutch brake (which was going bad) it took it a minute to be able to put it back in gear without grinding it. However yes you can. I wouldn't advise it in case you have to get moving quickly again.
Well at least your moving again till Blue done getting the blues .good luck out there .
What do you think of mods that convert a truck to a mobile home, that is also used to haul freight? They have a built in mini kitchen and bathroom with toilet and shower.
awwwww shifting out like a champ!
Chump
Ivan's taking the scenic route.
I wanna know is the Freightliner as quiet as Blue or is it more engine and road noise.
Wayne Norbrey, Jr it is very quite ..
Hi VERY GOOD VIEO
I like you videos JBG
Haha, nice turning

Very beauty full freightliner cascadia MANUAL. Is filippino boy?
Ontario CA Spotted it !!
Brings back fond memories! Does this mean 'Blue' is automatic transmission?
Where do you get one of those head or body cameras ?? I need one for when I'm driving my bus !!
John ma remember nako nga ang tingog sa makina morag sa lantsa mora M/V Hijos ug M/V Anita🤣
JBG do you double clutch? Or do you float gears?
thats when you starting loving cascadia lol
Is Ivan a truck driver too? You might have mentioned it before, but I think I missed it.
Phoenix Drake yes he is

When bob tailing, you can start out in 4th or 5th gear if you wanted to do so.

R.M. James transfer to paper log.. oh what a pain..

R.M. James I know right paper logging
Now we are allowed to use the keepontruckin app. The more you use it, the more awesome it becomes
I'd like to know where is this with the Palm trees? Just Saying
Good driver
How do you take off smoothly?
NOLAKID16 blue does it all haha

Hey John you make me laugh,
Sicilian357 sorry, i can't help it, i was born this way haha

JBG TRAVELS when I get older I wanna be a truck driver and a TH-camr like you I loved trucks and all I want for my birthday is to see you and steal your truck😂😂😂😂
Cool Isaiah same ever since I watched him I've been on expeditions to find John and baby blue.ive been across America and never found him😪good luck
wat is the difference between diesel and def???
Diesel is just the fuel and def is a fluid that goes in separate to help with emissions
I drive a blue 2013 KW T660 and my company tried to put me into a '15 International and I said no thanks, I'll keep the KW :)
I need a third feet! Classic
He sounds so stupid
what does that cost to rent besides big money
Im the same way about sleeping places thats why I never go anywhere lol (not really) I would be sleeping in the seat of that truck until I got some heavy duty super dooper LYSOL disinfectant spray and soak the mattress with it .. gotta kill the cooties lol
Barbara Miller haha
Yea ik lol but im talking about when you was driving the freightliner cascadia
Should have got Ivan's number so you two can communicate.
They should of have cleaned the truck before they sent it back out!
you gotta HTC one? woah baller status.
I know how you feel when your truck breaks down I had it happen with the old company I had I didn't like I hate when something breaks down
speaking of double clutching is babyblue automatic or manual
Tazm35 automatic
John what truck did Jeff have?
How come u didnt use clutch
looks like Fontana, CA
Hey JBG, I have a question. Is everyone featured in this video a trucker? Ivan and that other dude don't seem to act like truckers. Thanks for the informative vids. Stay truck 💪
2:29 Johnny is finally reunited with the White Beast! 33:39 😂🤣🥲
Greetings front mexico what happened to you trucki premiening new unit
Lol you said you don't gotta third feet
I would totally take that truck if it had an automatic transmission in it and fog lights
Well at least this truck was way cleaner that that pesky Ryder rental in 2018. No underpants found is a bonus.
Its an adventure!
Scary vid. Strange truck Strange roads.
Is this truck called White?
"LITTLE BABY WHITE"
Oh, you just miss Blue! Haha!
is he the bossman?
Paper logs?
Frank Hollein yep
Blue is a KW the best there is.
Have you driven a stick shift
Brett Sheridan In 2014, He drove a brand new T680 and a old KW. Both have a 10 speed stick shift.
it's no good without blue you got to have blue back
This Rental certainly nicer than that rental Volvo your in now
There’s no comparison at all
Damn it Ivan lmao
Hahaha. Too many oh ohs. Hahahaha. Like riding a bike. You never forget. Hahaha.
Jackie JEFFREY
Is that a truck
Hope you are getting paid for all the time this took to change trucks..
You thought it was a manual shifter but it's a it a transmission freightliner cascadia

Ivan the terrible with directions.
Chaines people is so crazy
Make more videos
time to deliver the load then go pick up Blue and head back to the office.
How do truck drivers not know how to work a trailer
Most truck should be automatic
yea that's what I thought
Thats what a lot of companies did for a while. Most companies are realizing that automatics are completely crap. I'm not a driver yet, because I'm only 16, but I've grown up around the trucking industry. I've rode in an automatic transmission semi before, and I must say it is the worst thing I've ever rode in.

@@stanleywilliams134 love the way you think kid
Man if I can go back lol 10 speed all day I’ll take over a automatic now maybe because I mastered it lol
I knw you miss BABYBLUE and i knw she misses you too
Done blue truck fix
Why not just follow google maps and then see if Ivan is still lost.
THIS IS WHY I WOULD NEVER DRIVE A AUTOMATIC , OF COURSE I GOT OUT OF THE INDUSTRY. BECAUSE IM GOING DIESEL MECH SCHOOL.
OH and one more thing.. aint it just like a woman to up and quit ya just to change your attitude about her?.... Makes you appreciate her more .. (thats a little known woman trick lol )
Barbara Miller LOL
