I’m on a dedicated account for Dole bananas out of the port of Mississippi. 4 days on 4 days off. Only two loads a week Only 1800 miles a week. Usually go straight up to Wisconsin and come straight back with a backhaul. Super easy. Great hometime. Guaranteed $1600 a week. I love it.
@@tracygrim2155 Kllm And thanks. It’s a great company to go to school and get your experience with. Mega carrier. Plan on leaving after two years. Started 6 months ago. Can easily get 3k a week doing lease purchase on any account. But no complains. They keep you rolling and treat you good
Hi Alex, I have a battery powered wifi magnetic rear camera. Very helpfull to just put it in the back while aligning and once you are aligned you take it back. Very helpfull for hard spots when backing up
Welcome to the “dedicated “ life. I was dedicated Walmart for two years. I delivered frozen, dairy, meat and produce. You are so right. That’s a whole different beast by itself. Well take care sir…
Yeah dedicated is a completely different world. It's crazyyyyyy. It's more structured like a day job. You start at the same time everyday, do the same loads. I like that about dedicated
I'd probably drive trucks if I could get hired on at Walmart but they require years of experience and still have to fight for a position. From what I've heard Walmart drivers are the top in their field.
Congratulations on the new position Alex. Once you get use to the hours and the stops you will be fine. I have faith in you and Kenny to get the job done. Looking forward to more post on your adventures through trucking.
Uncle's a truck driver here in Michigan he bought his own truck but works for a company out of New York works about 12 hours a day and is home every night and makes about $1,500 a day and that's after they take taxes out it's some sort of scrap metal company that he works for. A lot of OTR drivers are lucky to make $1500 a day is crazy. Him and his family travel to Florida 3 to 4 times a year. Wish I could do that lol
What I meant the same was he makes $1,500 a day after they take taxes out and most OTR drivers even when they own their own truck and work for other companies are lucky to bring home $2,000 a week and yet you got my uncle bringing home $1,500 a day and is only working about 12 hours so of course when he comes home he basically got to go to sleep but also the cool thing about the company he works for he can take any amount of time off as he owns his own truck and works basically his own hours but the company only works Monday through Friday so he gets to go camping on the weekends which is actually pretty cool. If you are a OTR driver and are able to buy your own truck make sure you look for local truck companies that work Mondays through Fridays and pay about a thousand to 1500 a day that way you're home every night and you're basically become rich within a couple months 😂.
I'd love to see more footage of you just backing up. I'm getting my CDL soon and I'm nervous about backing up into docks so it would be nice to see you do it. Love the vids!
The main five things to remember are don't hang your head out the window like a dog. Use your mirrors remember to steer towards your trouble. If you are blindside backing don't be lazy get out and look.Take your time don'tlet anyoneget you frustrated. Bam you will be just fine. My dad started me out in a 68 cabover when I was 13....30 years ago.
That unit is a a TCU. Temperature Control Unit. Reefer is the TCU for Refrigerated Unit. Same unit that you use in your home to keep food cold An air conditioner which runs on the same principal.
I use to pull refers bro,you get use to it running overnight while you're sleeping after some time, today's refer units are a lot quieter than they use to be, depending on how old the trailer is. The ThermoKings are pretty quiet.
Yeah I was worried about sleeping with a reefer but as long as I have enough hours to get back to the distribution center I just drop the trailer off and park bobtail. It's nice
You’ll get use to working in city especially once you know where you are going. Just do what I do take over all the lanes. But be careful not to leave a small cap cause stupid cars will try to squeeze in there.
Yup. U gotta take over as soon as u can coming up to lights or corners bc they will absolutely refuse to let u over if there’s a line of cars in the lane next to you 😂
My distribution center doesn't allow overnight parking because we don't have room for a bunch of truckers to hang out after dropping a trailer. So what we did is get a street with a semi sized roundabout at the end for truckers to sleep on. It has the capacity for our truckers plus another warehouse. Not the best, but I physically don't have room for 60-100 truckers to hang out for 10 hours. I have maybe a dozen empty spots in the yard to move product to ship 2 million pounds a day
Hey Alex thanks for the great content you put out. I just did my 160 hours of training and soon I’ll be going to get my CDL license. Very excited to get into this business. also love your videos because you have the shaggy from scooby doo laugh. Every time you giggle it reminds me of my childhood. Good times. Take care.
The new pay is quite encouraging tho...the only thing you'll have to do is adjust your whole schedule. And with time you'll get used to it... Drive safe mhn 🙌
Yea so I see your working at kroger cool. So yea when you show up you call the store tell them your here. They'll let you in the back door unload do paperwork and that's all. Also I doesn't mater what door most of the time we just have to open it
Rolling with the automatic truck I 👀 see...no shifting has its benefits but you have more control with manual and all that shifting in traffic and city driving keeps u more awake on your toes
Hey Alex I'm a huge fan and aspiring to become a Trucker...one of these days. Have been watching and subscribed to your channel for a long time now,there was one video you made where you were singing I believe an empire of the sun song an never forgot how sucha,quiet kid opened up so much so free was really inspiring to me an been searching up an down for the video you made where you were singing towards the end loved it more than you know please direct to me.
Alex if you give me the chance I'll get your more money and better driving time! look up variant on glassdoor etc its a low score I know we could fit you better!
So cool seeing you in my town I’m from Hamilton and pretty sure I passed you the day you had to make the wide turn by the thortons. I’m a concrete mix driver for a company right near there.
Welcome to real trucking. Lotta guys think they're drivers. And been doing it for a long time. But until you do middle of the city driving your just a steering wheel holder on the interstate.
Those Kroger trailers look 17:18 nice, new, clean, good care, good tires nice trailers at least. Kroger is great food store chain.. biggest in country make alot of $$$. Think it is good company... profitable.

I don't know where you are driving but the Kroger here the drivers always drive in front of the store before going to the back docks. As to what door. Lol any door is good. Wish I could drive a truck but with my disability I can't even drive a car.
This is dedicated truck8ng though not otr (cross country trucking). In dedicated you drive to the same 3 states over and over. You usually get paid more though. Plus for me at least it's a more structured job than cross country trucking. You start at the same time everyday whereas in otr your sleep schedule is based on what time the delivery is due.
Hey Alex, I don’t know if you will see this, but there is a song called this 18 wheeler won’t fit down the street and it’s what I thought of from this video
I enjoyed this so much. I worked for Kroger for many years in Ohio. The Drivers were always so nice. But I think back then they worked for the Kroger Company, Not like today. Safe Travels!!!
I trucked nights for 7years once you get used to it you won't want to go back and some store let you park and most let dedicated park regardless the signs just ask someone
Yeah but they want me to pay to use it. Another trucker told me just to use Google maps and drop a pin at the truck entrance so I've been trying that so far
Truckers path is so worth it. Only 8 bucks a month. See if weigh stations are closed. If spots are available at rest areas, truck parking areas and truck stops. Very handy and can read reviews on shippers/receivers. And it shows you every truck entrance to places. I use it 24/7. Way cheaper than buying a $400+ gps

I like your videos but I feel like to cut way too much stuff out. I like watching you back into docks and hook up to trailers. You can cut some of the driving if you like though.
Man I love your Videos you are so fun 🤩
