      Hmm! Yes that's right just another example when the government intervenes into this as it did in the 70s when they deregulated the industry which caused problems! #SMH

    This is my uncle Terry, his brother that he's talking about in the video with the Peterbilt 359 is my dad! My dad and his brothers are all super hard working dudes that take pride in their line of work and love what they do and you can tell by the way Terry talks about his truck in this video. Very cool to see to see this.

  • @danielparraz1155

    First, I would like to say that is a beautiful truck; the paint scheme is awesome with green/black, as the darker colors are broken up here and there with chrome and polished details. The rear bumper has a unique, kind of Gotham City theme going on, and I love it! Otherwise, as a "non commercial driver", I really liked how he mentioned the "triangle" to get back home as often as possible, and also how he talked about "the company wants you to drive this route", but you should be driving to maximize your potential, while considering revenue and time spent with family, or as some call it, the work/life balance.

    I have a challenge for you, if you see this? I grew up as a truck drivers son and grew away from wanting to drive a truck. When I was a kid there is nothing I wanted more in life. Have you ever come across someone who had a reemergence in their love for the lifestyle ? I'll be 44 this year and thinking about going for it. I just cant stop thinking about it and want to go as far as maybe owning a small fleet some day. Anyway, i'd love to hear a similar situation straight from the horses mouth (if you can find one).

    • @wyattk3797
      @wyattk3797 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      For what it's worth I'm 37 and I grew up in this industry. I fell away from it around 19 years old and returned to it around 32 years old. I now own six trucks, all old-school 379 flat tops. It's incredibly challenging running six trucks but very rewarding to see all the guys happy. Go for a brother chase your dreams

I prefered to use paper logs but i dont run hard anyways so e logs are ok with me, i prefwe the freedom of paper logs because you can go to store or personal things wirhout worrying about running your pc drive 1 hour out. Plus getting with mega carriers suck because 1 ticket and they will put you out of service until their mechanic sees its good. You cant take ur truck to ur own mechanic to inspecr.

      The difference is so big and potential to make money is so great that once you get a old truck you’ll be kicking yourself why you didn’t do it when you first started. I suffered for 2 years with a Cascadia garbage truck and upgraded to a old Classic XL. I am so glad I did that now I have enough money to pay off my house and park it to go on vacation when the roads get a little ice on them.
