To the naysayers, the negative people. Trucks require repairs, maintenance. Sometimes the mechanical failures come at inconvenient times, we get through it. Dan is pickier than some others in the level of quality he puts into repairs, so over time he'll be making the truck reliable as he has done with his other trucks in the past.
The trash bag (walmart bag) for the king pin lock works great, I use to just leave the bag stuck on the grease... never wanted to touch it to dam greasy... don't know where they went but they will disappear... and, must be a cat reman water pump, they never last, total BS..... for ten years I hauled cat reman parts out of Corinth Ms... spent a lot of time around the shops, cat buys really cheap bearing and seals when they reman there parts... rebuild it your self with good bearings and seal....
Dan, I appreciate the way you tend to always keep a positive attitude. You had a rough week for sure but continued to smile through the video. Thanks for all you do and stay safe out there!
I've had plenty of days trucking where everything went wrong. Then all of a sudden everything goes right for a while. It's the cycle of life in trucking my friend.
It's amazing how all those little problems can pop up all at once. It's still a good truck and with a little TLC and work by you Dan it can be a great truck again. Stay safe
Stay with that truck Dan, you will be bettor off with all extras in it. Once you fix all the Little bugs, your bettor off in that truck. Your own bathroom with shower, larger sleeper, bettor meals. Way ahead of the game.
Dan I have truck identical to yours. I ordered it new in October 1994. No matter how much u maintain it something will always go wrong unexpectedly. My company requires inspection every 90 days. My trucks going on26 years old and I would drive it anywhere. Hang in there and “Keep on Truck’in”. It’s all I know to do. Lol.
Just a suggestion instead of that weatherstripping you might want to try a bead of clear silicone around the edges of the generator door. Let it Harden before you close it. I never had any luck with that weather stripping it always fell off no time. Or you might want to try putting a thin layer of the silicone around the edge and then put the weather stripping on top of it that way you know it's going to stay on their. Anyway thanks for the videos.
I live near sikeston and I’m pretty sure that truck sat on his lot for quite a while. Sitting is really hard on equipment. Keep after it and you will eventually get the bugs worked out.
Dan, you have a great attitude about everything...it just goes with trucking as you know..love the positive content you share is simply awesome we all can learn from this....keep up the great work and be safe on the old highway....
Mr.dan I have to tell you this so I've been out here for 41 years I'm 62 years old now. And I carry tools with me I carry a starter with me I care in Alton are with me at carry extra belts and hoses and I even carry a water pump with me you know why cuz anything made by man can and will go wrong you learn these things as you go along and your career driving these trucks carry the stuff with you that you need and this way you'll never have to worry about not needing it cuz you'll have it okay buddy love you God bless hope things get better and you'll save a lot of money
Hi Dan, don't worry about the people that give you grief about not continuing to run the white truck, they don't know what the future will bring either. We all have to make the best decisions that we can with the information that we have available at the time. Fate has a way of biting us in the butt from time to time no matter what we decide. Another thing that I thought of was having the parts fail on the generator on a weekend when you were basically sitting and waiting to go to the shop on Monday is not all bad, you certainly had time to work on those small issues and better there than when they could have left you stranded.
Been following for years. If you didn't have something to fix or play with you would be bored to death. You always think things through. You made the right call. More chrome and lights always better. Safe travels my friend.
Hey Mr. Dan. I’ve got a HUGE WARNING ⚠️ for you sir about that “Dual” bluetooth radio from Walmart. Those little pieces of junk are fire hazards. I was hauling an Oversized Load a few months ago. All the sudden outta nowhere, I started smelling smoke. It was very very thick, strong, potent smelling smoke too. I got on my CB radio to inform my pilots and the rest of my convoy that my truck was on fire. We all pulled over on the off-ramp. I had no idea at the time it was the radio. Anyway, upon inspecting, another driver who has over 30 years experience, reached up and yanked that “Dual” radio outta the hole it was in, and sure enough, that was the problem. The radio had been installed only days prior by a mechanic. If I’m not mistaken it was soldered as well. If I had not been there at that time the whole truck could have went up in smoke. Still I don’t know what exactly caused that to happen. It was a company truck, with a company bought radio in it, installed by a company employee. Anyhow, just a warning. You’ve got a very nice truck there sir. And it would be terrible for it to go down due to a $20 Bluetooth radio. Safe travels out there Driver. ✌️
Poor Dan being chased by Mc Murphy lol that where a lot of problems after each other wow, hope things will be better after this, it is a old truck just like the other one so small repairs will always occur, and luckily you can do a lot off those yourself.
I think when you get an older vehicle that’s been sitting for a while you get a few boggles that appear when you ask it to earn a living. Hopefully once you get them sorted it’ll settle down and serve you well 👍
It’s pronounced like toe ma. I lived there all my life, and trucked out of there for 45 years. Sold the house 3 years ago and we now are fulltime RV’’ers. Are you getting the truck fixed at Kimpton’s? We are now in Tucumcari on our way to White Tank Mountain Regional Park in Waddell, AZ for the winter.
Things that go wrong on Used Equipment. The Last Guy knew what was getting ready to go bad so he got rid of it. Things wear out and have to be replaced. The life of a Owner-Operator . Keep on Truckin!!
Hang in there Dan it will all fall into place shortly, thanks for the video's, love them and that Peterbilt, especially that massive cave you have on the back of it. I'm retired now but i would have given a arm and a leg to have driven something like that during my time on the road. Take care mate all the best from Australia.
My grandma always used to say that problems came in bunches like bananas... It happens to everyone and it's good to see someone tackle one of those times with a good solid and steady attitude (that's your wisdom and experience at work). I've unsubscribed to other trucking channels because of all the whining and moaning... Life is problematic and it's good to see someone like yourself who can take it for what it is and just work through it and keep going. Best wishes and stay safe!
Gee, all that happened was a tree fell, took out our power line, and blocked the driveway. They always say, don't feel sorry for yourself, someone somewhere has it worse. And you had it worse. Most likely the original leak is from a 'weeper hole' which is really a great idea. The water pumps main bearing keeps the water from the hole until it wears too much. Then it starts to weep. But long before the bearing gives out. (long being relative term) Much better than it seizing up and blowing the engine.
Hope things get better Dan. Can't quite get my head round what you've done from a business point of view but if you can afford it and are enjoying it, that's all that matters.
Hang in there Dan. Life throws stuff at you from time to time. My Dad just passed away at 98 years old and I am helping my 96 year old Mom with issues. Now I am dealing with my own medical problems while just starting a new job.
It will get better I felt the same way when I was having a hard time with my peterbilt but I just hung in there and it all worked out you got a awesome support system out here and at home so keep your head up and keep moving forward you be safe buddy I'm on my way to San Leaundro CA to drop off this oversize loader
I remember not too long ago you did a lot of work on the white truck but is one person said that goes with Trucking like everything and mechanical World take care God bless you talk to you later
Any truck you buy will need attention. You can do everything obvious in the driveway when you get a new truck home. The initial shakedown run or two always tells what else needs to be done. You fix things, not hold them together with duck tape and zip ties like a lot of people do or flat out ignore it. Staying on top of things and also the ability to do it yourself is a major plus. And yes, some stuff does have to go to garage and takes time. Keep on roll'n, there is good money to be made now.
Those little break downs, they will make you curse the sunrise, but you're lucky you can fix most of them yourself. That truck is like having another house, we all know there's always something that needs fixing around the house. Don't let it get you down, Keep up the good attitude. Love the "new" truck.
Hey Dan, great job, people do forget that when you purchase a used vehicle, its broken in for that drivers driving. Now you bought it and your driving it very different than the past driver. So now things are going to start to break. When the truck is finally broken in the way you drive, things will stop breaking.. And then and only then it is now, Your Truck..
any one that owned a truck has experienced weekends where everything went wrong, when that happens we kind of feel like quitting,, but we weather through and things get better. you do a great job of caring for your truck. pull toy here.
A truck has so many moving parts. Parts fail/wear out. It is a given. You should feel empowered that you can fix alot of the issues that happen. Keep up the great work and the great videos.
A great point about "fixing to your standards" and that is really important. You show great care and attention to the equipment that you earn your living with!
People need to understand. These trucks always need stuff. Your just catching most of it in one timeframe. Good luck and keep looking at the Bright side.
U did the right thing buying your corvette. When Teresa comes along you'll really enjoy it. Old trucks are still better than the new plastic def junk. U hang in there
Well I'm glad you got the big hotel to travel the countryside in. All those fix-its make for a great story to tell and it's even better because you can do a lot of the work. Hopefully this week is better. Best wishes and safe travels!
Hi Dan, I have a 13 year old car that I really like, but over the last 3 years I have replaced bits and pieces that you could use a toilet roll as a list, the thing is that parts are never going to last forever otherwise we wouldn't have spare parts stores, love the way Bailey sleeps, she is super content to be where you are, my border collie was 5 years old yesterday and when I asked him what he wanted he replied, a new dash cam for the car, take care both of you regards from Yorkshire England xxx
I may be wrong but it looks like your 5th wheel needs to be adjusted. It appeared to have a lot of slack in it when you tugged on it. One thing that's real nice is after working on the truck, you can take a nice hot shower right there. Ever consider filling a few extra 5 gallon water containers incase you run out? They sell containers that collapse when empty.
That other truck, the newer Pete was also having issues. . If it has tires and taillights it’s gonna be a problem. Keep up the good fight Dan. Man made it, man can fix it!
Dan the bad luck Demons have certainly struck this trip. You are handling the situation very well. Bailey is not letting it worry her. As for that blank space where those radios were may i suggest a picture of your house and Theresa in a frame. I am missing your train of the day. I hope you get things sorted and on your way soon Cheers from Sydney Australia.
Wow Mr. Dan what a weekend. So glad that all this happened at the truck stop instead of the middle of nowhere. You'll get it all fixed and be back on the road. Love little Bailey; she is a joy to watch. Be safe out there sir 😎
Keeping your cool is what it's about Dan. I liked your explanation about many little repairs you had to do on the other truck, just not all at once. You will ahead of the curve because you don't let things lag. Great job Dan !
Hello Dan just watched your video of your problems with the new used truck. Those little things on a used truck will happen. At least you don't have all the after-treatment garbage. That is so unreliable. At least most of the things that are happening you can take care of yourself just think if you had a newer truck with after treatment and you had to rely on a dealer you definitely be screwed. Enjoy watching your videos.
One thing I have learned in my 35 years of driving a truck, doesn’t matter whether it is new or old, something is going to break! New trucks maybe it will be covered by warranty but you are still going to have payments! Old you will have to pay parts and labor but hopefully you have your truck paid for! Some of the little things going on with yours is it seems as tho the truck may have been sitting up for awhile! Maybe even with the overhaul of the motor they may have replaced the water pump but that doesn’t mean that it won’t break. The way you take care of your equipment maybe after you get caught up with everything going on the routine maintenance will take care of you! Like you said you were constantly fixing things on the white truck doesn’t matter what color the paint if it moves it going to break!
All those breakdowns didn't even phase Bailey! She knows you got this, Bro.
To the naysayers, the negative people. Trucks require repairs, maintenance. Sometimes the mechanical failures come at inconvenient times, we get through it. Dan is pickier than some others in the level of quality he puts into repairs, so over time he'll be making the truck reliable as he has done with his other trucks in the past.
The trash bag (walmart bag) for the king pin lock works great, I use to just leave the bag stuck on the grease... never wanted to touch it to dam greasy... don't know where they went but they will disappear...
and, must be a cat reman water pump, they never last, total BS..... for ten years I hauled cat reman parts out of Corinth Ms... spent a lot of time around the shops, cat buys really cheap bearing and seals when they reman there parts... rebuild it your self with good bearings and seal....
Dan, I appreciate the way you tend to always keep a positive attitude. You had a rough week for sure but continued to smile through the video. Thanks for all you do and stay safe out there!
Dan the Can-Am Man. You aint a quitter. I think I would rather get all my "Bugs" grouped up. Best of Journey's going forward !
Who let the bugs out !!!
I've had plenty of days trucking where everything went wrong. Then all of a sudden everything goes right for a while. It's the cycle of life in trucking my friend.

Hey Dan, great job, people do forget that when you purchase a used vehicle, its broken in for that drivers driving. Now you bought it and your driving it very different than the past driver. So now things are going to start to break. When the truck is finally broken in the way you drive, things will stop breaking.. And then and only then it is now, Your Truck..
