That was cool that you got the APU fixed at no cost to you. I've seen cars cut trucks off, what really is unbelievable is when I see videos of cars harassing a trucker by getting in front of the truck and then break checking. Those people should lose their driver's license. Nice video, hope the family is doing well.
Hello Ms. Cindy yes they fixed the apu at no cost since it was under warranty which is nice 👍🏼 yeah I see that a lot people brake checking trucks because they are mad the trucker didn’t let them in that’s why I have dash cam for proof in case of something like that lucky me I never encountered anyone like that before.
Glad u got it fixed if u ever come close to eufaula Oklahoma I can get u a free room at the best Western for night if u want get out of truck for a night to show my appreciation for all that u do for the country service
Hey Brett yes sir it’s all fixed it was super hot that day but I’m glad it all worked out at the end 😃 really I appreciate you for offering a free night stay 🤝 I’ll keep that in mind thank you for the offer 🙏
@RunningOTR ur very welcome it is the least I can do for all that u do and ur videos have Inspired me to go and pursue a career in trucking for my family and my dream when I was a kid
Yeah, there's something wrong with that reefer obviously. I would do whatever it is that you do to change reefers. It's loud af anyway. I'd turn it in as defective when you do your pre trip. Call your dispatcher al tell him what's going on. This whole reefer thing is something you can't control and looks like everyone else is just kicking the can down the road and eating the fuel costs. It needs to be fixed asap. It's now a safety issue. If it runs out of fuel while you're sleeping guess what is going to happen. That's right. It's a fire hazard now. And you don't want that. Keep on trucking! Love your content. Even if you're just driving . Peace bro.
@ yeah I use to park there a long time ago it was me and some car carrier Volvo now I usually park at the one9 or flyingj but it’s dangerous someone might hit my truck there so if I take off long hometime I just park there usually and my other friend who drives for Leonard’s park there too
Hey bud, do you find that your tablet GPS doesn't route you correctly a good amount of time? ps come to Wisconsin, we just got 6" of snow in some areas today.
Hey Steve 👋 yeah I notice it does route me incorrectly a few times especially the new one so I just keep following the highway. Especially when I picked up in Kansas and the bridge was 20ton if I followed it fully loaded I would of been in some deep trouble 🤷♂️
Hey Sean 👋 they build warehouses with wider doors and the dock it self is lower then your trailer doors so they are able to open them up 🤷♂️ I was confused before as well when I was new.
I was curious about how many miles can you do in your 14 hour day? Do you sit long at your destinations. I’m hoping to do about 800 miles max per day that’s with delivery and possibly picking up another load before I have to call it a day
You can only drive 11hrs per day max @62 that’s about 682 miles on straight road. Some places hold me up a long time and some are quick to load or unload just depends on the place 🤷♂️ I use to drive 1000 miles daily at a Russian company but I stopped they ran illegal clocks and forced you to drive tired and they paid so cheap 😂
@ I’m sorry if I’m asking too many questions just curious about the 11 hour drive time is that affected by you sitting in docks to be unloaded and loaded? Or is that strictly when you’re driving down the road?
Hey man another great video! Hope you're doing well, and staying safe! Also, you're lease purchase right? How does the fueling work, do you have to pay for fuel youself? Or how does that work? Always wonder how leasing works.
Hey Antonio 👋 thank you I appreciate you watching my friend. I’m just a regular lease not a lease purchase and yes I pay for my own fuel each load they give you fuel and I just follow what they give me for fuel. I’ll do a video sooner or later on load and what it pays breakdown for the fuel etc. leasing you pay truck payment weekly after you gross money and then you get the rest of remaining balances to you.
@@RunningOTR Ah okay good to know, never knew how that worked, I knew you had to make truck payments but thanks for letting me know! I'm planning on doing another video in ATS with your truck with a Tyson trailer livery I made!
You think that thermo king was small the one in portage in is big but the problem is kllm trucking uses there lot as a yard fir there trucking company they lease property from thermo king and they use all the space no room to park
@@RunningOTRI was with pst you never heard of them I bet it was cool with them I learned chicago back roads to get around traffic like if you go up I 94 into downtown and you here a backup or accident on i55 s and your going down I 55 south you van take 47th street west all the way to central Ave yes a lot of stop lights but it's control traffic I use to run it all the time
I have Merch ofme Backing tips and showing you trix of the trade never take 34 make all kinds of Money. I will put you miles ahead of the rest .hor 250 dollars
Huh? Prime gave you a new truck?25? Damn 120$ for reefer fuel stupid ridiculous I'm sure def and Diesel is much worse damn stupid but whatever especially what state your in I'm sure its worse wherever you go oh well
Yeah anyone can get a new truck at prime mines a 24 but they have 25 trucks yeah def is so useless in my opinion such a big waste of money. Reefer fuel can be really expensive depending on what you hauling
My Hometown Man!
I grew up in g town too

I appreciate the tips and you watching my videos brother much love 🙏
You would think thermo king could afford to have shops with more space, this is not the only tight shop they have.
Right I agree they be having some tight shops with little to no space to maneuver in 🤷♂️
Just used your Driver code
