There is nothing more beautiful than watching a true professional driver at work. Congratulations to your team.
right on
Clearly, no-one said "let's split this into sensible size pieces and assemble on site"
Damn straight
You Said And I Was Thinking It!! 👍👍👍👍
Shutting down a major multi lane highway is destructive at best.
Every ounce of pain that can be done offsite to shorten the time it takes to install this on the highway is worth its weight in gold.
@@Luckingsworth In Australia they installed 41 gantries (some 60m long) along one of the busiest highways in the country along Sydney's M4 with minimal disruption. All taken to site in pieces and assembled in the late/early hours. Over several months 9pm they close one lane each way, 10pm two and 11pm all close until 4am re-opens. One thing that may have helped is parallel to the M4 is another lower-speed highway that has frequent on/off ramps, the diversions were very good and at most it might extend a trip 5-10 minutes.
Said no engineer ever.
Jeez, that makes driving a normal semi look easy 😂
Ik
Driving a normal semi is easy.
@@tylerbrogie1782 damn you’re so cool man
@@classicjesus it's my job. Takes 2 weeks in a school to do it. Now a days they are almost like driving a car. Its not cool, it's work. At least I don't get rekt in cod.
@@tylerbrogie1782 lol i only rek people in cod, and i got my cdl too with all the endorsements so it’s no big deal😎
Customer: “that’s not our order!”
delivery guy: (shots fired)
@@miguelpaneda1607
😂
Call up the nearest funeral home
I read this and died laughing lol
Customer: "yeah uhh... the guy who ordered that canceled it soo..."
That Toll gantry was already causing unnecessary traffic delays before it was even in commission.
... it’s... it’s an open road tolling gantry... this speeds up the traffic, because you don’t bay cash lmfao
@@mcb187 speeding up traffic would be not having a toll at all🤯
@@matthewbourgeois9648 Its not a stop and pay toll. Its an automatic probably
@@matthewbourgeois9648 this is a toll where you dont stop or slow down. it has cameras and sensors.
@@matthewbourgeois9648 p

It never ceases to amaze me how it’s cheaper to build it and move it then it is to build it on site
By your reasoning they should have a factory at each location they put one of these up.
@@MrThisIsMeToo… you know the vast majority of buildings aren’t built at a factory on site nor are they moved as one piece…. Right?
@@Fetidaf😂
Controller: "Damn, we missed the turn-off - can you do a three-point turn?"
184 point trun
"Yea just gimme half the damn state to do it"
Re-calculating...
Believe it or not it can happen. If there's not a way to do a turnaround with the load and your route is blocked, they will make you just pull over on the side of the road as best as you can and make you wait. The state police don't mind because they are getting paid by the hour. On average they are making somewhere between $35 and $50 an hour.
oh SHIT !!!🤣😂.
These are the widest semi turns I’ve ever seen.
You have awesome driving skills.😁
Well done.
well theres another guy controlling the wheels on the back of the trailer
@@musclecarsdaily3020oh well in that case this is a piece of cake! What are you on bro this is still impressive
I used to be a heavy haul driver now pretty much retired so I want to thank you for bringing back the memories of how exciting that profession is
Benny Bruin happy retirement
Benny Bruin what’s biggest thing you’ve hauled?
Ford f350
Enjoy your down time gear hammer
I got early retirement haul'n freight coast to coast and big equipment when I got held up by 3 foreigners at gun point and the S.O.B shot me in the back.... ya know it's the darkest thing..ya gotta have usage of your legs to be able to drive according to the cell laws🤔
@@scottm.franklinnc7942 So sorry a SOB shot you. Taking a medical retirement is not what you had in mind, but it is better than the alternative. My brother had to take a medical retirement from ranching after his third hip replacement. The Dr. told him his body wasn't handling all the wear and tear (both shoulders had steel pins holding them together)
To everyone asking "why couldn't this have been broken up into shorter sections and assembled on sight?"... I'm no expert, but i have to assume a lot of very smart and well paid people worked on this transportation problem,
looked at different routes on the map,
and considered different methods to achieve the same goal,
and determined that what we seen here was the best/easiest/cheapest way to go about it.
My hat's off to them because they apparently knew what they were doing and did a fantastic job.
Also, no doubt the driver is most excellent, but he also had a lot of support personnel helping him maneuver that thing. It was no doubt a team effort!
Nahhh. The truck driver being a bad ass truck driver asked the company to assemble it on site so he can have a unique story to tell. And boy does he.
Yeah that is nice job
Or the government was in charge...
But where's answer???
"They changed their mind. We have to take it back."
This is a whole different level of driving skill
The teamwork gets it done. Great job!
Cop to the driver: "How much of the road do you need blocked off?" Driver: "Yes".
LMAO!!!!
Ain't Noooo Doubt!!!
When you are hauling over sized loads with police escorts they are very accommodating to the driver. I know this for a fact because I have done escorted loads with state police escorts.
@@aljr118 and people are trying to defund them...aint that crazy?
Wow this is a clever comment. Perhaps the first time anyone has used the "Yes" retort in a TH-cam comment!
I can only imagine what's next! Probably something like:
"How much road do you need?"
"All of it"
Hahahaha wow, hilarious 😆
🙄
Hats to the driver and the company. It takes months of planning and coordination on all levels to do these big hauls nearly flawless.
This vehicle makes incredibly wide right hand turns.
Not to mention, wide left hand turns.
@@robertmcdonnold3038 Ya it doesn't discriminate
Right turns matter
You'll also notice it was white
...and regular LH turns lol
My aunt has been dating him for several years. Never knew he drove rigs of this size. Pretty damn cool to see!
I've seen some "over size" this has to be one of biggest over size rigs I have ever seen! Great team and well done!!!
The heavy oversize loads, similar to this, in Europe are impressive to watch.
See, size does matter :)
I've seen Mammoet and van Seumeren haul drill platforms and refinery columns before. While this gantry was long, indeed, it wasn't nearly as big as those things.
Cool th-cam.com/video/LeUA8xmRFS8/w-d-xo.html
Give this driver and the team a big raise.
Holy cow, listen to all the back seat drivers in the comments below. It would be very difficult to piece this down and take it in sections, which would still cause traffic problems, especially hooking those sections together on site and up in the air, when in one time to haul it all and end it. This was fully thought out and determined to be the best and safest way to do it and the least amount of traffic interference.
Me: Pulls slightly over white line at stop light
This truck: immediately comes to make the turn...
LMAO so true
😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹 shit. I laughed so bad at this. I honestly don’t know wheat regular people feel when we ( me being a truck driver) are waiting for the light to make a right turn. And then comes the regular person and stops dead after the big solid line that says “stop here on red”. I always look at them and think what might be going thru their head at the moment. 😹😹.
Haha so true. I'm no truck driver or heavy hauler or anything like that, just a farmer. Anyways there was one time I was hauling a bull and a couple cows to a sale and I had to make a left turn onto a smaller road and right as I was about to turn this guy pulled out way past the stop sign and he was in the middle of the road to take a left
Man I tell you the look on his face was priceless as he watched that trailer literally inches from his little car
Now, THIS is TRUCKING!!! GREAT JOB FELLAS AND "MAD PROPS" TO THE "DRIVER"!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👌🏾👍🏾❤💯
Well the rt crane I just dropped off doesn't seem so big now. Thanks 😂
That was pretty cool.The driver and support team worked great together. You can tell the driver knew what he was doing. Great job.
Dam that's one kool driver I was holding my breath every time he had to make a turn, he did it like he was driving a pickup truck
It's heavy haul. They're the best of the best. It's not something one does right out of school, to say the least.
I hate autocorrect sometimes.
Hey driver: need you to back this into that side road.
Driver: YOU WHAT!!??😳😳
LOL😂😂😂
they are the best of the best he may not look it but guarantee he's been driving for a long time....
I started hauling hay @ 12y.o in a 2tn
56 chevy and have driven a lot of things sence then ( until I got hi-jacked and shot) but this is 1 load I'd pass on.
Wow. Excellent. I hauled oversized loads for many years. Getting it there felt great. I did one job 7.5 hrs to get it there and 1 hr to get back to the yard. Thanks for a great video
Now thats a load! Awesome.
The truck driver in the video is absolutely amazing,his driving skills are out of this world,just amazing
And we were under the impression that driving a 40 foot motor home was difficult.
love to see a video on them putting that in place. Nice driving
People like this, are amazing, just pure of hard work.
Great camera view underneath the load. Great to watch another big haul.😊😲💪💖
I love the heavy hauls
How long is your rig
@@scramble7673 I dont get it I would of got it if he said I love long hauls
@@taetdw1461 opp
"There's nothing that we can't haul"
Tom Brady's mansion: *hold my beer--*
😐
Kept his cool in busy traffic what a professional 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That Kenworth looks gorgeous, never noticed the LED before
Your team did a great job moving a massive load
I'm a new trucker. That just blew my mind! haha! Great job!
Now this is real trucking boys!
The driver is the real hero!
No the Whole Crew. When moving something like that, it takes the whole crew working together
Great work.
In Australia, they’d probably haul it in two or three separate sections, and then assemble it onsite.
Oversized loads are a lot of fun and a lot of headaches.
Thats what she said!
I just happened to notice the name in the video and thought I would give it a watch. I used to haul heavy equipment lowboy and also an experienced Pilot Car Driver. This was really neat to watch! A driver and all the people with him having great skill
As a rookie in school looking at this it makes me wanna shit my pants but it's just another day for this man. Nothing but respect for all our senior drivers.
I'd like that type of delivery on American Truck Sim :)
Dang, watching him clear those turns!
Watching this makes me wish the other kind of semis "cabovers" never would've phased out here in the USA. I remember I saw cabovers everywhere back in the 1980s & down. These days the cabovers I see most often are only fire trucks, garbage trucks, yard trucks, front discharge cement trucks, concrete pumper trucks, military trucks, crane trucks, & non semi trucks like those smaller size ones which are also cool.
My dad was a long-haul trucker with wide-load steel; but this is a lot bigger and wilder! That was some awesome driving and "eying" for the trucker that the man in the back did! Kudos to all involved!
Impressed by the skill, teamwork and attention to safety. Great work!
I saw one of these parked under an overpass last week when I was in that area.
😱😱Wow😱😱.... I used be semi truck driver and double decker bus driver at my small country which is Malaysia... I love seeing like this video on youtube... I just wanted to say that i totally gave my 100% of respect to the Heavy and Oversized drivers for being braves, stay focussed on the road, always cautions and well manuvered in tight spot, T-junctions and under bridges... You guys are the boss and most proffesional truckers on the road... Keep up the good work guys⚠️🚛🚛🚚🚚🚜🚜🚓🛣️..
This was super awesome...... I have been driving for some years now I love to see you guys do your thing when I’m out here. But this is the best coverage I seen on TH-cam‼️👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🙏🏾
Much respect. I've been on ride-alongs with doubles before but couldn't imagine riding shotgun on a quintiple/sextiple.
Driving this on the world's straightest road would be satisfying

Damn, never thought I could be entertained by watching something huge getting hauled lmao
Cop to the driver: "How much of the road do you need blocked off?" Driver: "Yes". - Truck driver multitasking at its finest!
I saw 3 blades of a wind turbine being hauled to the job sight. I thought they were long until I watched this. Nice work.
The turbine blades average 150 feet long each.
i love all of the videos and I'm planning on being a truck driver
They make it look so easy, thanks for giving good camera angles and a different perspective.
I have respect for all truckers. They work hard on the road delivering the goods across the states. These guys did a great job delivering that, it probably wasn’t easy maneuvering through those tight turns
I would've loved to be that driver of the big rig. To have everyone looking at you. I'd feel like I'm the best driver in the world. And feel so proud...............❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣
It's a lot of pressure operating one of those things because if you make the slightest mistake someone could be killed or property could be destroyed cause there is a lot of weight on those heaby haulers and they don't stop easily that's why there's multiple operators for the rig , one being the main cab driver , another being the rear trailer controller then lastly there are the pilot vehicles that help to keep traffic away Along with guiding the operators around stuff so they don't have any collisions.
you would have to be the best driver in the world
From experience hauling freight coast to coast and heavy equipment
That driver was tired by the end..the
Mental exhaustion is just as bad as physical. But at the same time when he got there ... he's probably like OK how do I top that 1 and damn will that be a nice chunk in my pay $$🤔😊😊
@@scottm.franklinnc7942 I drive trucks and tour buses, so I know about being tired after a long day driving. People think it's easy, but it really isn't..........
Nice
That was cool.
WOWZERS! That's a SUPER LOAD right there. Awesome video. You've earned my subscription!
That's another job not everyone can do. Great work.
2:54 Driver "pfft, lightweight"
Kenworth makes me proud every day wish I had one
Now thats what I call an OVERSIZED load.! Great video.👍
That was amazing!!!!!! I work at a printing company and watch guys rig in printing presses I would think damn thats moving big stuff. But after watching this!!!!! That was childs play! Awesome work guys!
"there's nothing we can't haul" you wouldn't be able to haul my old lady.
You be surprised
They probably have an oversize bullrack for her.
Lol
Oh that cold u better not let her hear that or ur n the dog house
Does she have her own moon or just her own zip code?
Fantastic video. It takes a team of experienced professionals to pull off a job such as this. Great camera views. The driver was so cool and calm, a true sign that he trusted all of the work his co-workers did in planning this journey, and offering precision directions along the route. Excellent job, Buchanan Hauling!
Respect for the driver! He did a good job!
Wow . I love watching this and tanks snd boats from Germany down small streets . Amazing work .
Amazing what can be moved . I have trouble getting my fifth wheel around some corners.. Good to see you back on yt
The guy driving the truck looks like he loves his job
One of the few gigs i'd sell my truck for if i was going to work for somebody. Love it
Man damn, I have a WHOLE LOT of respect for drivers that can move something that enormous. I drive a forklift and that's as big as it gets for me.
Me driving down Florida Highway all the time now I know how they got there
2:57
The bulldozer truck driver: OVERSIZE LOAD
This truck: Are you challenging me?
One cool, calm, and collected trucker
Well done to the team & that driver! What an effort.
I’m manage a heavy haul business and we consistently haul 300k and 249’ long bridge girders.
Good for you, great career to be into. I have known some heavy haulers and they weren't exactly hurting for money.
where at? i would own that job.
I love that Kenworth w9
It is good truck
Badddd Ass Truck Driver
COOL & CALM @ the wheels
Good driving skills !
Finally a real man who knows how to drive a rig.
He's a dam good truck driver and he needed some help on those turns a job well done. 🤔😲🙊👍😉
ThAts impressive to take the whole road up to make a turn like that. A skilled driver too
I miss those days when I was hauling this stuff in my thirties. Wish I was still doing it now.
Never saw such a huge.....awesome!
Caution: This vehicle makes er... wide turns.
Awesome! So satisfying to watch that skill set and teamwork. Do the load axles not turn remotely? Or did you just not need to?
They did steer separately, remotely
Give that driver a raise ASAP
it must be that weird time where TH-cam is like "you seem to like videos of trucks crashing into bridges, how about a channel of trucking companies doing it right?"
greetings from an 11 foot 8 (+ 8) fan!
* gets there and realize it’s not long enough
I thought this was ckickbait when I first saw this, I stand corrected.
its 2am local time and this came up in my recommended, not even mad.
I did 148' one time and I thought that was a trip. But this is really wild! Awesome haul guys!
Having done long haul and heavy equipment..great job👍
5:23 Toll operator: excuse me driver you didn't pay your toll that will be $500 for the truck, $1000 for the trailer and $10 for that little VW stuck under it
Driver: ? VW ?
Muito bom incríveis super grande
Driver handles his rig like a BOSS!
I see nothing but real professionals getting the job done!
I’m a 🚛 driver myself
