Please do a video with tips and tricks on going down the mountain loaded at 77k. I’ve found your content not only informative but realistic and useful.
its fascinating that you have so light trucks in the us. full load here in eurooe would mean about 132000pound, or in certain areas of scandinavia even upto 264000 pounds fully loaded.
Really alot of things that go into trucks it’s not just knowing how to drive and shift I’m learning quick but still trying to get better and downshifting and upshifting when I should during turns or roundabouts
This is where (plug-in) hybrid trucks will excell in the future. Giving you the power to go uphills and keeping your brakes cool going downhill using regenerative braking and not wasting the potential energy into heat.
Lmaooo you know nothing about what you speak. Sad part is, it's amazing how easily duped people like you are. Let me guess, you're fully vaccinated too, and believe in your govt?
I'm from Guatemala waiting for Permanent Residence. I'will get my CDL When I Arrive to California. I got experience driving Bus school but I wanna be Truck Driver . Thank U for your videos. P.D. Sorry for my English. Take care body.
You Are Northbound On "Interstate" "77" [not highway 77]. An Interstate Do Not Have Any Traffic Lights For You To Stop. Just Exits. A "Highway" Has Traffic Lights For You To Stop. 🆗️✅💯💯💯💯💯
Cool vid man. I work for Supor Heavy Haul. We usually gross 250k -500k lbs. We pull hills at 5mph or less.. it makes for a long days stay safe out there buddy
I've seen some really bad trucker dash cams of inexperienced drivers, and was curious what you would consider safe to pass. Would you consider two truck lengths enough to give the trucker behind you enough room to make decisions, or still try and give three truck lengths if you can? Just curious since even for cars, they don't give truckers enough respectable space.
Depending on the weight of the load, I average between 5th and 8th gear. 5th - 6th if I'm heavy and the climb is steep. 7th - 8th if less heavy and the incline isn't as steep. Many variables will determine the gear choice. -Power of the motor -How steep is the hill -How much weight is being hauled -How many gears does the truck have
@@bigA-cy3he it might be for the USA, but I know this is going to come as a huge shock to you, but there is an entire world outside the borders of the USA. So stick your neck out of your little bubble and you might learn something. You only have to look north to your neighbour Canada who run Super B's which take 140,000lbs
Thank you for sharing, you said the key word, and that is to be patience. All drivers need to be patience...Be safe, Cheer's from Western Australia..

I have the video now. Go check it out! "Going down a mountain with no engine brake"

our roads were only built for 70k lbs, these 80k trucks are tearing up all the roads
I was in Mexico about two years ago and it's common for the truckers down south to drive using two trailers
Really alot of things that go into trucks it’s not just knowing how to drive and shift I’m learning quick but still trying to get better and downshifting and upshifting when I should during turns or roundabouts
Currently watching this as I carry 90k lbs on a hill in remote Idaho 😂

You really think that huh????!!!!
@@stephenkiszenia79 yes and you can proove me wrong any day but that response is plain stupid. Simply provoking amd that's it
All there battery will be dead by the time they get to the top
@@1320jay3 that's the point so you can regen down and save your brakes

Is it not better to down shift a little earlier? I always do it around 1200 rpm if im going uphill. I feel it helps me keep momentum better.
how do you shift using the clutch and not double clutching?
Give it a year bet you'll have over 100,000 subscribers
Awesome video bro.
Thank you for this!
What was your setup engine size HP and torque? Also thanks for this video very useful 👍
Good video
Ahem, the sierras? I'm from California and I think they need a shout out.
The clutch actually works to help you change gears while moving? I have to match revs and shift without the clutch on my 10 speed.
Fancy Gap
Is that full throttle?
Oh yes. Has to be or else you won't climb well.
@@bigrigpro763 Thanks! How many hp is the truck's engine?
What is RPM ?
@@bigrigpro763 Thank you.
Revolutions (reps) per minute… in other words how hard the engine is working. Your car has the same reading called a tachometer

An interstate is a form of controlled-access highway, both are valid.
Come india and see indian mountain road and show your driving skills

I've been up that mountain many a times, but i never use my clutch, and always with 78k pounds of produce.

Does anyone ever ever automatic trucks in the mountains..sheesh
What gear usually going up a hill?
Depending on the weight of the load, I average between 5th and 8th gear. 5th - 6th if I'm heavy and the climb is steep. 7th - 8th if less heavy and the incline isn't as steep. Many variables will determine the gear choice.
-Power of the motor
-How steep is the hill
-How much weight is being hauled
-How many gears does the truck have
I just did this 75k Oregon Utah Wyoming heading to iowa
can you do a video with a 140,000 lb loaded super-b, so it'll be more realistic to other drivers lol
The weight limit by law is 80,000 pounds

@Kiowan918 that's for informing me but there's no need to insults
I'd like to see a video on how to install tire chains for snow.
Damn you lugging
Yeah 1100 rpm’s up a “mountain” that’s lugging it. Wonder what he’s got under the hood?
I just drove the same place today, my load is about 38000 lbs, I remember this climb is right after a love's.
What rpm you bump up to downshift from 10 to 9
Wish I could get this video for automatics
Thanks for making these vids
Hello I am truck driver i am 49 yo arab who need me
