Sorry I’m advance, I’m not a truck driver, just a fan of the content, but what is a “glider” I here you and Tim refer to it often, but doesn’t seem to be a specific make or model
A glider is a newer tractor without a drivetrain (engine & transmission). Like a glider is a plane without an engine.
According to DoT rules, tractors with engines _newer_ than 1999 have to meet modern emissions standards and are usually also pushed to use electronic logs. Steve is in the clear because "Orwell" is from 1984 and his 3406B Caterpillar engine is original to the tractor, thus he is exempt from those regulations. He can use paper logs (as "Orwell" is fully mechanical and doesn't have any engine management computers to connect an E-log to) and he only has to adhere to emissions and safety standards as they were back in 1984 (thus only having a lap belt instead of a three point belt like your car and modern tractors.)
Because the rules are tied to the _engine's_ manufacturing date and not to the tractor itself, guys like Tim Gentry would get newer tractors with more modern amenities and put in older engines from pre-1999 so they could have the best of both worlds. However, the Powers That Be have now closed that loophole beginning this year and thus it's no longer viable to get around newer regulations. Steve's still in the clear because, as I said, his rig is complete and from 1984 so it doesn't apply to him. However, there is a push for trucks like "Orwell" to be phased out and make it so all commerical tractors have to meet current year standards and if it passes, "Orwell's" days hauling freight would be over.
Hope this helps
If you have a Glider built prior to the limits put on them, you're still good. However one is very expensive now. Even used. They are the most valuable truck.
Example of a glider wad my friends 2016 Peterbilt 389 built with a 1993 model year 60 Series Detroit. Was built that way new at Fitzgerald.
@@fsctrucking So if a glider built before this year lost an engine (say Tim's green Coronado with the warrantied Detroit) would this mean it was completely done for and need to have a newer engine installed, thus being held to current regs or could he put another pre-99 engine in and keep it in the exemption?
@Daniel Seelye The Coronado Tim has was built factory as a Glider. Thus it will always be a Glider.
So originally when they started making Gliders, you ordered one. It was delivered to you as a brand new truck, with no engine. You had to put the engine in. But you had to turn in the old "donor" truck's VIN number. This way that older truck could never be used again. Every Glider has a dead old truck behind it. This way you had a new truck meeting the regs of the donor year. Not the new chassis year.
After ELDs and DEF hit. Companies like Fitzgerald did all that for you. And they sold thousands of rigs. The government didn't like a big company getting around Govt. Thus gliders are very limited in number. And I believe PACCAR won't sell them at all.
@@fsctrucking Thanks for clearing that up. 👍
I retired in 2004 from OTR trucking, but I remember when there were no "cell" phones or GPS in trucks, and most drivers ran 2 log books, I still miss those trucks and sometimes I want to go back to OTR trucking but then after watching trucking videos and all the cowboy drivers out there I think I'll just be content with watching trucking videos such as this one. Thanks for the memories, be safe and keep 'er between the lines.
I worked at the pilot in perryville MD as a maintenance man. I seen 4 pumps taken out like that lol but the biggest problem was drivers forgetting about the other nozzles and driving off with them. In month I had replaced 34 of them
Used to be my SB top off on 95 so I could avoid any stops till at least NC... Kenlly, NC Petro was my NB top off!
One of the things I remember were the breakaway fuel nozzles. Watched a driver one time pull off the fuel island with the fuel nozzles in both tanks. The pumps had clicked off and he just jumped in the drivers seat and put it in gear. Went 15 feet and realized his mistake.
The pump handles still in the tanks, hoses on the ground. Fortunately the driver on the next island cut the pump before any massive amounts of fuel spilled.
Same thing happened in Elkton md about a month and a half ago!
I've been to that Pilot!
@@iannarita9816its diesel it dont spark much🫣
Appreciate the lower camera angle,Steve. Looks very close to your PoV.
Again, thx for taking us along. Safe journeys, man.
Hey Steve I agree with you dot needs to stay away while your resting or sleeping
Ohio and Georgia supposedly got in trouble for that, but who knows.
off duty means OFF DUTY....i literally had a CLOSED For Business sign that put in my drivers side door window when off duty....
i got out of trucking in 2016 i keep thinking how i miss the freedom and nobody watching over my shoulder, I don't know if because of you tube and social media and news but watching what goes on the roads today i think i will just stay away. I started in 2001 and that to me was the good days when i first started just like the generation before said 60's or 70's were the best years. I will say people that drive truck are under appreciated
I was already 14 years in when you started, and yes, 2001 was still the good years. We were still under the 10 hour driving law of 1937, and hardly anyone was using paperless or computer logs.
Now my smartphone is my logbook.
It's really not as bad as I thought it would be, but I'm home everyday, so I can't speak for the OTR drivers.
As of 2018, it is supposed to be against the rules to wake a sleeping truck driver unless they're parked illegally, or there is an emergency. Sadly, not against the law.
The CVSA policy update reads:
“Certified inspectors shall not disturb/interrupt any driver of a commercial motor vehicle in off-duty or sleeper berth status when legally parked for the purpose of conducting a random inspection.“
There's no law that says you have to get out of your bunk. If I heard knocking, I would just pretend nobody is home.
55 in Ohio brings back memories. Back when the limit was 55 for everyone, Ohio was notorious for stopping anyone over 55. At the time I was driving an F model Mack with a 15 speed tri-plex trans. I was stopped for speeding and had to park the truck and go with the trooper to the judge in town and pay my fine. This, of course, was before the internet. Another time I was stopped again but times had changed. The trooper carried a credit card machine so I could pay my fine right there on the spot. You know the machine. The one the card goes in and it makes a carbon copy for you. Boy, how times have changed since then. Great vids, Steve!
So it's a cop car with a cash register. Doesn't exactly send a message that public safety is the main goal of traffic enforcement.
Ohio was reason radar detectors were invented and is home to 3 companies that make detectors for good reason
John Glenn when he was a US Senator, was stopped by a Brooklyn Park local (I think). He tried to get the law changed, so a local jurisdiction had to have an on ramp and off ramp(2 exits).
Ohio changed the law in one important way, if a local jurisdiction is getting more then 25% of a law enforcements department from traffic enforcement, the overage goes to the state of Ohio. Missouri did the same a few years later. It did wonders for speed trap towns.
@Ian Narita Indiana was the first to do this, because every town in Indiana was a notorious speed trap. All tickets written by the state police, go to the respective county they were written in, and county and town cops couldn't run traffic on the interstate or U.S. highways against commercial traffic, unless they seen them doing something stupid, and even then, they would simply hold them until DOT got there.
Apparently hell froze over 😂
I've been using the " Hammer" truck GPS phone app. It's like Google, but for trucks. So far, I love it.
I was waiting fir you to yell " Bomb cyclone "....lmao.. at 1st I hated when you made fun of it, but now, I laugh my azz off when you say it...I even yelled it on the C B. The other day, and another driver yelled out " FSC"!!!!!! out in the distance...lol..
Wether person called it that here in Michigan and most of the Midwest wether stations called it .. found out if a name is given to a storm that insurance companies don't have to pay out as much ..act of god type crap they pull, we never ever had given a name to a snow storm before and why Steve makes fun of it
Steve I want to thank you for the videos. They bring a lot of good memories. Me, I was closing in on 2 million miles, accident free. Got ill and could not drive anymore.
I used to pull a reefer, as a company driver for a large company. The company had some hard times. In the time I was there two of the founders died. Then they took the company private, but the person who financed ended up in serious trouble with his company. His share of the company ended up being the largest asset he had and the company was up in the air for a while. The company survived, their new owners merged them with another holding and is doing much better.
Me, I'm finished as a driver and prematurely retired. All I can do is watch from the sidelines.
Hang in there you never know what life will deal you.
All the best and Thank You again
I retired after 45years I had two strokes lost vision in one eye I'm 68 I don't miss it . trucking went to hell electrical log book driver's can't speak English . California was the worst always got tickets 2 mph over joke state. The cop said thats still speeding. While the trucks full of garlic or fruit they speed and I never seen them pulled over. Thanks
Ps I had over 4 million miles and owned 5 trucks first truck was a 1974 I think gmc astro 9 speed 290 Cummins no Cruse no power steering 270 rears ratio.🤣
Those companies made you guys sick. Owner operator with authority or forget it
i discover your chanel about a month ago, and i've been watching every single video and it s really relaxing. Greetings from France.
I just realized you pass by me quite often. I live in Fairborn just west of Columbus about an hour. I've ate at that Popeyes many times. If you're ever in the area and need anything please let me know I'd be glad to help brother. As always thanks for bringing us along with you and take care.
CCD is the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine. I went to Catholic schools through the 8th grade then attended a public HS when I attended CCD classes for 4 years. You’re a good person, Steve. 👍
I grew up in NJ like Steve and I remember kids in school getting out 30 minutes early so they could go to Catechism, which sounds like the education Steve had. I used to think they were lucky because they got out from school early, but now I know they were just going to another school when the rest of us got to go home 30 minutes later.
No religion has ever given success to humanity. Just don't be a homo, be honest and fair that is enough to be a good person.
Let's all pitch in and get Orwell some shiny Alcoas for the rear wheels !
As a fellow driver speaking ever since covid I've seen more and more people passing on the shoulder and even passing on double yellow lines on two lane roads. Love the videos FSC
Great point you made about how it should NOT be legal for law enforcement activities / inspections etc. in a truck stop or rest area where truckers are off duty unless as you also mentioned it's some kind of criminal investigation. No one should be able to bother a trucker who's resting in his rig. It's your rolling home, your castle and you should NOT have to engage anyone that you don't want to.
My oldest bro Ralph drove truck for over 40yrs. He owned a cabover perhaps as old as yours & had conventional's as well. he preferred the cabovers. Unfortunately he was terminated from driving & subsequently had his license revoked because he developed dementia which is now progressed into the final stages. Trucking was his life. Txs for the shotgun rd trip. It reminded me when I would ride along with him on short hauls.
Excellent video Steve. The new stacks are great!..many trucks sound AS good as Orwell, but NONE sound better!
Keep on truckin! 💯👍🇺🇸
Look forward to the vids. one of the few YT channels I actually watch regularly.
Best 'Truckin' Channel' goin' Steve...
Thanks for the ride-along. - Paper Log(s), Cabovers & check-call once per-day forever !!
Like my old dispatcher used to tell me; "It ain't but an inch on the map" !!

Retired OTR 1977-2009
Hi Steve I really enjoyed ridding along with you.👍👍
I miss when we had the Gray cars in Ohio. I don't remember ever seeing them. However I do remember the Polar Bears. As a matter of fact, the last State Trooper Crown Victoria was saved and added to the Cleveland Police Museum collection. I may end up seeing it at Cops and Rodders at the Toledo Police Museum in Toledo, Ohio this June.
Once a year in Ashland, Ohio, the car show in town is huge, and the guys from the Cleveland Police Museum bring the vintage/replica Ohio State Highway Patrol Cars to the show. The early 1970’s Plymouth’s with the 440’s had to be a hoot driving them down I-71 from Cleveland to Ashland. There was a silver Crown Vic and a silver Plymouth Gran Fury as well, along with the red Z28 Camaro they used to have on the road as well. Apparently there was a total of 4 of those Z28’s in use in different areas back in the day.
As my dad always said to me. You do not have to go too church to be a good Christian. Steve, You actually sound like myself with
the religious stuff 🤣
Just when you think something is idiot proof ( heavy cement barrier to protect the pump) a bigger idiot shows up to prove you wrong!!!😂 I love the ride Steve. Very sweet!!!
16:38 Greatest movie ever made. “Two fellas just stole my truck!”
Great video Steve really enjoy all the different camera angles and your commentary and the music. Love the Coal Roll exhaust from Orwell's new stacks. Also noticed since you exhaust size went up Orwell's turbo wine is much quieter than before stay safe Steve.
Orwell feeding the plants
"how in the world did they manage that" slowly pans over to a swift truck
All the spilled fuel was probably from his freshly filled gas tank 😂😂
Hey Steve. Something like this happened at the pilot just East of Houston Texas off of interstate 10 (last year. Truck driver took out the main pump for the fuel (the big one)
To Fmc
I ‘m a flat bed driver I always avoid that pilot there. There’s always some thing happening there.
There’s always three deep at the pump. No room to get in and you got panhandler’s in your business.
If you didn’t experience anything like that, consider yourself lucky .
Kd
5:35 was that one of those "BOMB CYCLONES"? 😂😂😂😂
You need a sticker that say “ this vehicle is not subject to dot regulations. It identifies as a Prius. 🤣
Nice piece of editing there young buck! Climbing into the truck. Sliding into the seat! All in one smooth motion, I mean, frame!!! Hollywood doesn't even come close. 😂
I hate you had a bad experience in a southern church. The ones I've attended over the years would have welcomed you warmly.
I don’t know how someone would manage to hit the fuel island unless they were super tired or blind. I’d like to see a dash cam video of this event. I know there were several cameras rolling.
I love that old cabover Pete! I go back to 1974 when I drove a Freightliner cabover with a 4 x 4 transmission. With the doghouse so close to the seat there was not much room for those two sticks, but they had them set up with a very short throw. Then I drove lots of them with 13 speeds. My last cabover Freightliner had a 15 Speed up on the dog house. Petes had that too. It had a nice short sports car stick with a short throw. Loved that truck! These days I drive a Columbia double bunk with a Cat and a 13 speed. Been running long haul for 48 years, and I also have some videos of some of my trucks running in the States back to Canada. I only run one camera. I think you got about 3 or 4 cameras going there. Don't leave those GoPros out in the rain! Keep on trucking!
Like the in-cab camera setting, now it's more like we see what you see, which is a pretty nice view of the world.
It's a shame that you had a really bad experience with a church. Unfortunately, that's not the first time I have heard of that happening and sadly, it likely won't be the last.
Sure would love to upgrade from my hotshot to a cabover, love those trucks!
The SWIFT Driver is like thank god it wasn’t me😂😂😂
Stay safe out there on that road, Steve. 🙂
Hi Steve, the new angle of the Go Pro is great. Love sitting in the cab as you drive mate. The view”s great, and we”re out of the weather. Keep the videos coming mate, cheers. John, Queensland, Australia.
I’ve been off the OTR road for a while. But I’ve had MSP bang on my door, wanting to see logbook! I stayed in sleeper and said no, my guess they were wanting me to sit behind steering wheel? Dunno, there’s my experience with that rest area foolery….Stay Safe!
They call that creative driving. Now they will raise the price of fuel to pay for the damages. I guess you fixed the audio cutout problem.
Nah they just bill the insurance for every penny they lost and how much sales whey will lose
wow achievement unlocked for sure. What I found out in trucking is that when it comes to messing things up, every single yet-to-be-discovered way will be discovered by someone. Murphy's Law. Just imagine the insane stuff left to be discovered, all the easy Darwin awards are taken 🤭
LMFAO! I crunched a trash can with the right fender of a brand new Volvo, at the Petro in New Point Indiana once.
It really sucked because number one, I was only 35 miles from home, and two, I had just gotten in that brand new truck the day before. It just couldn't have happened with the old 1987 cabover Freightliner I had just gotten out of.
@@truthseeker2321
Must be something with Volvos.
We got a new one after the old truck got totalled out, it was a total minor accident magnet.
@@rosen9425 I was too used to cabover trucks then, and that Volvo was the first conventional tractor I had driven, that had a sleeper. I figured that I would have missed that trash can by 5 feet with that big sleeper cabover Freightliner.
Nice video. I love old school cool. Cabover, rolling coal is badass. Takes me back to my childhood. Thanks brotha, and drive on.
It would be interesting to see the Closed-Circuit Security CAM footage of what happened to those pumps....
Steve you brave man for staying the night at that Pilot in Columbus! I use to live there and not even I would park there. I stayed at the Pilot in West Jefferson, easier to get in and out. Love the video though.
Hate that Pilot. Won't stop there even for fuel unless I'm sucking fumes. My brother got the hood of his FLD taken off there several years ago.
That Pilot is almost as bad, if not worse, than the Pilot in Cambridge Ohio.
Always a fight over someone parking on the fuel island longer than a few minutes, because they had to use the restrooms or something, and a truck was parked in front of them and they couldn't pull up.
I used to stop there just to get coffee, and learned early on to simply park in the K- Mart parking lot next door. Easy in and easy out.
@@PikaChu-fy5pt yeah that sucks.
I know that pilot 2 it's been some years and it wasn't a main stop 4 me,butt I left my company s fuel card there 1 time, and left church and drove 3 hours back there to get it and then back home to hit the road put east if I remember correctly, and my not😅😅😊
I past the 1 in Cambridge daliy and would even think of that 4 fuel either.
On Google Maps if you click on yourself in the diagram you can change the parameter to Semi- Truck still have to use you discression but it does avoid low bridges though.
New camera angle -perfect, safe journeys Steve!
Taking out two high flow dispensers is impressive and would love to know how they did that. I've had some taken out before on the gas side that even after watching the video I still couldn't believe what I saw. Had one where a guy took out three in one shot, drugs are bad kids. Had another in an ice storm took out fire hydrant, fuel price sign, two dispensers and some other misc stuff on the site. It happens all the time and every time we ask how. Just like when someone is on fire why do they ALWAYS pull into a gas station and up to a dispenser it is just beyond me.
Love the “Good Fellas” clip! 👍🏻
Best movie ever.
Google Maps.....let's send everyone through a residential area, dirt roads and railroad crossings because it saves 2 seconds. 😂
Another great video FSC. Like the new camera height. Driving back empty has got to be tuff on the wallet. Well you have a great and a safe day. Happy trails and happy motoring..
Sitting waiting for cheap freight is worse.
@@fsctrucking I heard that. I bet there is a lot of cheap freight out there.
Thank you for your very nice videos. A truck drivers life is not easy. I'm not a truck driver. I'm in the 4 wheeler on the same roads and I appreciate your sharing.
It's also nice the way you present your work/day. Not one cuss word. I can share this with my son's. I respect that. Like Ron Pratt and his recovery tow trucks, I enjoy, I don't have to worry about what's coming next. It's all about trucking.
God bless.
Swing WIDE!!! It’s a fricken trailer, 4wheeler Friday. Most well designed fuel stops have 2 to 3 separate dispensing systems, submersible pump, dispensers sometimes even separate storage tanks. That way, there is a plan B, C. Always able to dispense fuel.
The Toyota Tacoma, probably the most bullied vehicle on the road. I don’t blame him for passing on the shoulder
The mech at #NoNonsenseKnowHow might take exception to that sentence... he owns a black one...
I bet it was a Swift driver 🤣
Ouch! Now that's cold...
Great video. God bless all truck drivers.
Driver's license out of a Cracker Jack box
On all the long distance (900 miles plus) drives I’ve done as a four wheeler, every drive has had at least one serious piece of bad driving that could have caused a catastrophe. Worst was in PA on I78, in which multiple people died.
About got in a bar fight last summer with a Jesús Freak biker because he wanted me to go on a ride with his club and I declined his offer.
Told him I practice my own religion and I was not looking for righteousness in his eyes or any of his followers. He just would not let it go.
Some of these born again guys are way over the top.
My dad used to drive a cab over I myself have nvr had the opportunity visibility is great sweet ride man get ya one of them custom steering wheels
That funny Steve !!!!! No Fuel . I live in Ashville 20 mins shouth of Columbus , That Truck stop Sucks been that many times . Thanks for the Video .
Stay safe for us! You and G. Orwell !
Hey Steve. I like the trailer mounted Go-Pro. And you’re right. D O T has NO BUSINESS hassling drivers while they’re sleeping in a truck stop. This is from Randy in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Hey A Bit Late, Well " Bit " Is An Understatement But Glad To See You're Safe! Lots Of Crazies.
First time watching and really enjoyed the video. Good content and especially likeed all the different camera angles. Totally jealous of the truck though ;) Thanks and keep up the good work
Every time I say to myself, how did this happen. Next day that will be passed by the new incident. Stay safe, Orwell looking good
I love your cabover very beautiful i am a cabover Fan i like watching your videos very good
I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN PHILLY, DROVE FOR CHEMICAL LEAMAN TANK LINES FOR YEARS, THEY CLOSED MY TERMINAL I MOVED TO COLORADO TO DRIVE FOR MONFORT, BOUGHT MY FIRST TRUCK IN 1980, IVE DRIVEN ALL 48 STATES AND SOME OF CANADA, MY WIFE PASSED AWAY SEVERAL YEARS AGO, SO I SOLD MY LAST PETERBILT, AND DROVE A DUMP TRUCK LOCAL, GOT MY 50 YEARS ON THE ROAD, AND I RETIRED, IM SO DAMN BORED, I HATE GETTING OLD.
I like the new camera view, thank you
I remember when the TA off exit 10 on I 70 in Ohio used a decent restaurant down stairs and Asian massages up stairs.
I used to drive back in the 80's and it was also in a cabover. I always loved it but one of my previous places decided to no longer act as a job reference and I had to leave my last truck driving job because of it. I've driven busses and coach busses as well many other jobs since and now I have been an overnight truck stop cashier for the last 15 years in Gurnee, Illinois.
There is a similar problem at the Pilot in Denham Springs, Louisiana. Every time I go to it, someone has damaged 2 of the pumps. The pilot in LaPlace has been wrecked since Hurricane Ida in 2021. Still no more than 3 or 4 of the 9 fuel pumps are operational.
Love the sound of those pipes on the ol’ Cat! Nice job!
I was wondering when the video would drop with you coming trough my neck of the woods. You are right about the state boys bothering drivers at rest stops. I always see one in particular bothering drivers on 23 south just before S. Bloomfield just inside pickaway Co. Luckily there is a Sheetz with truck parking thereabouts now.
When I saw that car slide across 3 lanes of highway with nary a turn signal, I let out an OOOF! even from the comforts of my room, followed by your 'nice'. I knew exactly what were referring too. That 'shit' startled me! From a former. 1986-2018 😳
Holy black smoke, a cab over! Google maps? Try a Rand McNally’s Motor Carrier road atlas. Especially with that low trailer.
I THINK YOUR RIGHT ON POINT, THE REST AREAS ARE PRIME AREAS FOR DOT INSPECTIONS, CHASED IN PENNSY A FEW TIMES.
LOL Google Maps took me into a "No Trucks Allowed" neighborhood in Schaumburg, Illinois once. Got out OK, but it was nip and tuck for awhile (-:
Ohio is notorious for DOT pulling truckers over practically everywhere they can especially when they have their yearly mass inspections where they pull trucks into rest areas, scale houses, the side of the road, you name it. I bore witness to it on I 71 between Cleveland and almost Cincy where they were pulling trucks over every few miles and so I asked a list on facebook I was a part of at the time hence where I learned about the mass inspections.
I used to run on a mail contract between Cincinnati and Philadelphia, so I would run I-71 up to Columbus and pick up I-70.
I- 70 was the worst, between Columbus and Cambridge for getting pulled over for inspection. The eastbound scale at Cambridge was absolutely the worst, if the short, top heavy blonde woman was working. She made you feel like you were going to be summarily executed behind the scale house.
I run to cambridge Ohio daliy and I do my best to stay away from these places
Well I expect to see "Orwell" next to "Johnny Cash" as Tim's going to MATS as well for a booth, a meet & greet and he's bringing that cabover now that he has the proper pump for that 1693 Cat to fire off. Enjoy!
You never know...
Freight is terrible glad I don't have to rely on trucking for a living. Great video
A creative solution to being woke up in the middle of the night by law enforcement is climb into your driver seat and answer the door in your birthday suite.

IVE BEEN OFF THE ROAD NOW FOR MORE THAN A FEW YEARS NOW, PUT MY 50 YEARS ON THE ROAD, NOW IM BORED LIKE CRAZY AND MISS THE ROAD BUT IM 80 YEARS OLD.
Hi Steve how are ya mate when you buy your new truck try and find one with a little ber fridge so you can keep your food and drinks in
brother,,you are a driver,,professional driver,,that was a steering wheel holder..😂😂
I think the soundtrack of Orwells engine should make number one on the hit list.
That guy just gave you the keys to the kingdom.
Former trucker here with 32 years experience (1986-2018). I just wanted to ask, is riggin' it down the fast lane (3rd) legal today? The last few years I see 'big rigs' flying down the 3rd. lane practically unimpeded and on a daily. Have the laws changed? Are truckers allowed the 3rd. lane? I know truckers attitudes have since the advent of cell phones and all sorts of modern day electronics.
Nice cabover.
That guy thought he walked up to Heaven…
A Peterbilt cabover with a Cat'…
That's the new drivers today. Careless
Probably pulled through and turned too soon and caught it with the trailer
I just can't believe the TA in Nashville will be gone soon. Almost immediately after they were bought out.
Dam, Very Nice Cabover ‼️👍🏽👍🏽
Talent😊
That frightshaker in front of the pump looks like trucker Ak's rig. Hope all is well MR. FEZCHECK
