Hey thats me!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s leadership..
@@Jeff250lbc its all in good fun
@@norith4300 if you are his trainer and still in contact and have this good of a relationship.. absolutely serious good leadership wish I could learn from you.. ..
@@Jeff250lbc not his trainer. Just a nice guy giving advice when others need it on the road.
Awesome video as always man! I never get to comment on these because we watch them when we go to bed and I am away from everything. I legit LOL’d at y’all flipping each other off! Great to see my hometown St Louis, I grew up in Lebanon, MO and Pacific, MO too.
To bad you can't "flip the bird" while driving your CFI truck in American Truck Simulator. Lol.
Nice man, I lived in St. Louis a bit, my dad's side of the family lives there in and around St. Peters. Love it there.
The legend himself
Me too Jeff! My family is from Lebanon and Springfield.
@@RidingWithDave Dave can you do a video on how to use the logging device, how you check your loads and stuff and explain sliding the tandems Thanks in advance
Sounds like a high school math problem: If two semi trucks are heading towards each other at 65mph and there is a 35 mile distance between both trucks. At which time will one of them give the other the middle finger? Lol
Yellow....answer is yellow
Wow yeah supposedly
the square root of -43
In the middle
The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
8:08 i cant express how happy this makes me lol.
Lol when the height of the trip is passing a buddy and giving him the bird lol
Easy 😜😜😜😜 and we will have the information is it ok 😃😃
Well don’t need to watch the video now
Time stamp
@@pewpew2375 8:15
Me and my dad do this every single time we pass each other. Shits funny.
8:13 best moment ever
Thanks for time stamp
I laughed my ass off man. I can only imagine if me and my buddy's did that, that's fucking great man. 👍
@@ed199 stop cussing pls
@@ed199 it get annoying
@@shandaboo29 bro you’re on TH-cam
I laughed out loud when you “saluted” your bud on the highway. Perfect video blogging content.
I spotted Dave. I was going Eastbound on 44 just shortly behind John. Seen Dave passing exit 97 near Marshfield Mo. It's a small world out there. I saw his truck, and I waited for a video to come out. Sure enough I have spotted the great Dave!
15yrs ago CFI was the first company i started with. Had the best trainer ever! Watching your videos bring back memories.
I had a good trainer as well :)
Jkj I m
I got my start at the Crash & Roll Academy in S.L.C., lasted four months there, left them for a smaller refrigerated company out of Union Gap WA,
stayed with them til I had my year of OTR, then started with another refrigerated carrier out of Fargo.
Dave, I'm glad that you are happy with CFI, I couldn't drive for another big carrier again.
The company that I have been with for the last 21yrs only has one terminal, I much prefer a smaller carrier, they aren't for everyone.
They have improved over the years, brand new bigger terminal which they have expanded.
It's nice having only one terminal, walk into the office everyone knows you, good, bad or otherwise.
I didn't have to check a loadboard or beg for loads, some drivers got better loads, others got the $hittier loads, just depended if you were reliable.
Larry is SOOO going to report this video to TH-cam for obscenity.
ROFLMAO
Aaaaaaaaå#w
Man! The fact you go over the comments and liking 'em and even replying on every video is absolutely awesome! It makes the comment section on every video feel more personal and gives the feeling of a great community. I'm a new sub of yours but PLEASE- keep on doing this even when this channel will grow bigger, and if you'll keep putting this much effort I'm sure it will cause you sure as hell deserve it!
I’ve been driving 15 years and still talk to my trainer John,awesome part he done retired from trucking and still answers the phone and answers any question I have.
That's cool as hell bro
@@wickeddominata8025 yeah
Every time something goes wrong while I'm driving my truck I say " That's Trucking" haha and when I mess up I hope Larry didn't see that hahaha
Damnit Larry!!
Hey bro it took me about 1 fully year to get the backing, now I can back up blind🤣😂 after 28 years of trucking LoL
Super excited I found your channel. Love the talk you had at the end about not being nervous and seeing how far you’ve come with trucking. Nice motivation.
Everyone has to learn you can't expect to be able to back right away but watching your videos you seem to do pretty good keep up the good work and be safe out there!
Man, you have me seriously thinking about taking up trucking. I'm pretty much a loner with nothing tying me down anyways and my career has been stuck in neutral for the last ten plus years. It's just a big step, but man it's enticing.
Why would this shit head inspire you to take up truck driving.
@@supertrucker1356 dam you sound miserable
I'm a 46 year old Grandma..... Just got my CDL A Dec. 16th! DUDE... If I can do it, you definitely can!!!! Come on D. Adder....get TRUCKING! You got nothing to lose and lots to gain!
Super Trucker! I want to get my CDL more after watching Dave. I bet “SUPER TRUCKER” you’re either a Larry, or the guy who was on bone head truckers 😂
@@wilE6764 WARNING.. Grandchildren are thieves..... They'll steal you're heart and completely own you within seconds upon meeting them! They're AMAZING and so much fun!!! CONGRATS Eric Wilson & enjoy every moment of your Grandchild!!!!
I do southeast regional and home 3-4 times a week. It's interesting to see this job through the eyes of a new new new rookie. I grew up in it so I started driving. I knew what to expect. Keep up the good work and don't lose your enthusiasm
RWD NEW TRUCKER TRAINING - Taking notes: Trucker wave = role down window, extend a friendly hand and wave with middle finger! Ok GOT IT!
It’s so awesome when you meet someone you know like that.
All the roads in America and you happened to be on the same one.
Im glad you chose to continue youtube as a trucker. I didnt see your channel when you were a motovlogger. Ive been considering filming drives myself, but im not sure how/where to start with it.
To anyone reading this! If I can pass pre-trip, skills and driving twice, you can at least pass it once! (Expired permit after I passed pre trip the first time meant I had to do everything all over again!) I had to do the driving test again as well because it was too windy the day of the test so the instructor took me on a combined route with no freeway (the head of the dmv said she can’t do that) and I had to go back and do it all over again😂
Currently I’m a road driver for FedEx Freight out of Reno, NV 🤙🏽 stay safe
You easily have one of the best of not best trucking channels on TH-cam. I been driving for 6yrs now and im with Napa Transportation. Everything that you're going through ive been there and sometimes still have things happen. You stay positive through it all. And are a better backer than me lol. Its all sl relatable. Most drivers on youtube are owners and have problems i never see. Keep it up.
Hi Dave I’m a 20 year old male from California I started watching your videos not to long ago and you make me wanna be a truck driver
I’ve just been binge watching all your trucking videos. You should get your logo printed on your truck, that’ll be real sweet. Keep up the good work 👍🏼
I started playing American Truck simulator the other day and decided “imma watch some truckers”. You are my favorite😂
I also play ATS and have for my truck and trailer an CFI skin. 🙂
Same bro!
Same man! Idk why but something in this just makes me feel happy, and kinda sad at the same time, because trucking isn't really an option in my country
@@almogcohen6185 that’s why they have simulators lol I don’t really want to be a trucker, I’m working on getting my pilots license. But I’ve always been fascinated with trucking and never really got into it until recently
@@naterichards5082 yes I guess I feel the same way. And good luck with the pilot license! Sounds like great fun
My dad was a trucker for a long time. 70's and 80's. I thought it was the coolest things to ever do. Good on ya.
Found your videos a few days ago and can't stop watching them. Keep up the great work and thanks for all the content!
I am starting cdl training on the 8th of Feb through job corps. I'm excited .
Awesome! I'm going on my first trip Friday 😃
@@tony6796 how did it go
💯
Me and my dad watch u and my dad has been truck driving for 21 years now
I just applied for CFI and got pre-approved finish my CDL school never week very excited. Thanks Dave💪🏾💯 I told them I watched your videos they laughed 😂
Good job Dave. I love your comments :)
Im following a lot of truckers on youtube but you become my favorite trucker youtuber. For very short time.
Keep doing good job bro !
I'm gonna start flipping off every CFI truck I see. Maybe one day, I will get the right truck...
I'm with ya, Cory!
I randomly found your videos and now I’m hooked and subscribed, thanks for the content.
نبنبهههههههههههخهخهههههههههميحين🎱🎱🎱🎱🎳🎳🎳🏁🏁🏁
It’s so true, when you sit home or wherever for to many days when you do get back on the road it feels so good. And only a trucker will know this feeling
You're an awesome trucking vlogger, I'm subscribed to 3 or 4 other truckers but don't really watch them much anymore, I like the energy you bring to your vlogs, if you keep up the good work, I'll keep watching
He said he appreciates the likes,subs,dislikes,shares,and viewers,if that doesn't give u enough reason to sub and turn on post notifications and watch his videos like sum TV series then u must be the type to stand for nothing and fall for anything ✅💯
Dude love your videos!! I'll be starting trucking school here about a month. I'm excited to start getting some miles under my belt!!
I have similar moments with my old colleagues from when I drove. Not as many clear wide roads in Australia, a lot of ours have trees in the middle but I made it work. I’m on my own now though. Thanks for the great video.
Reflecting with Dave
.....in an empty lot.
That’s reflecting Dave!
You reflect the best in the wilderness ❤️
Cfi: Get prepared to get sent up north on behalf of CFI
Dave:🖕✊
I'm in school now and thanks for the advice. I'm watching you to get pointers and it's definitely going to help me.
I'm really glad you gave TH-cam another go once you were more comfortable with driving. It's been an absolute pleasure watching your videos. I am not involved in trucking in any way but always enjoy the videos. I'm also that guy who enjoyed your moto vlogs too. I was dying to have you find me in the Genny.
When I started driving , I picked Werner solely because they had a three month long training program . I was 23 and had never been far from home it was great . I had an old school driver and and old school dispatch it was an amazing time . I learned so much and it was very much needed for me . Because I sucked at everything.
Im 19 and I’ve been thinking about it for a while now I think I want to become a trucker
Hello Dave I'm a huge fan I start 160 trucking Monday March 8th 2021 and I graduate April 2nd 2021 I already have couple company's looking at me ...But Dave I write to you ,I see you have a great Mentor and I was wondering if you could be my Mentor thur my frist rookie year ..Your a great guy and I never miss a beat of your videos your reason I want to be a truck driver
Dave I really enjoy watching your show it inspires me I have been thinking about starting Trucking. Going to pull the trigger here soon have a friend that has a school for truck driving going to have breakfast with him next week .
I will keep watching
I drive package at UPS. Just went feeder, my first day behind the wheel of a tractor we drove around a 28' trailer (that was a Tuesday). We drove everyday, on Friday I pulled a 53' around town. The next Tuesday I did my DMV road test. I passed !!! It was a stressful time. I am loving it so far. Backing is still a struggle.
It’s all down to the timing. The more used to it you get the less you over correct. The 28s can be a pain to back up also.
The thumbnail is you flipping the bird at another CFI. I'm dying lol
Fr 😭😂😂
Starting CDL A school on the 18th. Can’t wait to do that!
Gd luck 💯🇯🇲
You getting any endorsements with the class A?
Who needs satellite radio when you have Dave!! No wonder he's solo.
Thank you Very Much , haven't even Gone to school yet.. bring studying for it on u tube the tests and checking out your Videos and other's. You Nailed it with the comments you made . That's how I Feel but I'm sure I'll get it.
Maybe one day I'll personally Thank you After I Get it.. 😅
The level of excitement you got while looking for John. Love your attitude and the videos, especially with how isolating OTR can be. Always a good day for me when I see an upload.
Man this truck friendship is amazing
LOL! That's gold bro! I'm getting my foot in the door for CDL training with Prime. Not sure if I'll stay there after my 1 year contract, but this is some epic stuff here. FUN!
Awesome video keep up with a great work and be safe out there.👍😀
As a proud St. Louisan, hearing some nelly was nice.
St. Louie-Nelly
Also the bridge you took was poplar street bridge, really sketch when snow is on the ground.
Enjoying the videos
You’re definitely getting reprimanded for that lucky finger 😂😂😂😂
Im going thru the same now. Learned on a flat bed now driving a reefer. I need practice. I needed to hear I'm not the only one.
Gotta love passing buddies on the road, meet up for lunch or coffee! Love it!😁
Good Job Dave Christopher Billingsley From Fayetteville Arkansas
Isn't that what they call a trucker salute when you flip the other driver off
I just ran across your channel. You are so cool to watch. My Dad drove for 35yrs. Appreciate you sharing. It is very entertaining.
Appreciate your transparency and consistent uploads!
I saw a CFI for the first time it was a trainer truck with a 4 series trailer
Feels great to hear the anxieties of the training process isn't uncommon.
I mean you’re literally hauling 73 feet which is a lot you just need practice out on the highway and city driving and you’re golden I remember being really anxious the first time I drove out with my trainer good luck you got this
6 weeks out of training with swift i took a load to brooklyn/queens. never been to new york city. it was September and the weather was perfect. i was in some kind of awe of the place and nerve wracked at the same time. the bridge heights out there are ridiculous. but after i took that load i had the experience and the next time they offered me a load going to the bronx i was like cool, I'll take that. new york sucks and is cool at the same time. but when it's time to leave I'm ready to go.
Being a truck driver myself this makes my day lmao
The truth about starting trucking, you nailed it on the head man. Baptism by fire .my school didn't teach me how to back so i went to California not knowing how to back with a " trainer " that was more like a co-driver. But its like you said trucking isn't for everyone in order to make it being persistent and not giving up is the key to success.
hope they pay you something for just sitting around. damn, Joplin to pocahontas that's like 300 miles to bobtail. i definitely didn't have your positive attitude when i started.
I can only hear your video title in the voice of Spongebob “He was number one!”
This is great advice and so fen true. Doubt is always gonna come when you start, but as long as you have confidence and keep trying/ getting better, than your good! It’s not rocket science, it’s driving
That Nelly St. Louis was so much nostalgia. Im in Cleveland and we dont listen to Nelly that much ... So that was a very appreciated amount of nostalgia. Now i have to go listen to it 😆 ill come back to to finish watching this video though
so, were you into bone thugs n harmony back in the day?
Dave listens to Nelly😂
Hey Dave how does that affect your pay when you have to sit there for those 4 days ?
You know the saying “if the wheels ain’t turning you ain’t earning”? They might pay standby/breakdown rates but it’s never much. With the demand for drivers today, if you tell them if you’re not hauling a load in the next 24 hours I quit. You’ll have a replacement truck and a load instantly most of the time
Dave said it was nice to have a day to just chill, well from the recent post we know he was 'working' on his tablet lol
Man I feel that. I was with a trainer for about a week then handed the keys. Now it's a year and a half later and I look back see how far I've come from being a nervous wreck the first time I drove a truck
I Start training in two weeks and I'm freaking out already lol
I’m only a kid but I really want to be a truck driver or a cop after I go to the military in 5years
That’s funny I wnat to do the same thing but it’s hard to decide
@@its_ur_bro7382 respect ✊🏻
People 200 years from now will never know the joy of just driving. I often used to just go for a drive in my car out of boredom
It's good to see you have a little fun out there be safe out there
Is it just me or did anyone feel old when he sang St Louis
OML i have heard it before! I am 11 but I felt like i was 30! 😂The past time i heard it was when I was five
Yo my step mom is a dispacher for cfi in joplin
Who do you think he spent fri sat sun with?
Lol I was laughing my butt off with ya Dave..nice to have friends.. I am watching trucks now thinking it might be you . :)stay safe
Hehe nice your making add one to another I mean you and Alex I found you because of him it's nice to see that your also making him add
Were you in Baltimore md today? I saw a CFI and I was hoping it was you.
I wasn't
@@RidingWithDave dang it 😂
@@RidingWithDave What is that sound when you turn your hazards and right signals on?
@@EZPeezy02 That's funny I'm from Baltimore. I always be looking for Dave when I see a Cfi or any red truck. Are you in Baltimore. I'm a new driver looking for local work.
Next up : that damn avocado 🥑🥑 🖕🖕
You tell them Dave. KEEP ON TRUCKING!!
"Itch to get back on the road". Man ain't that the truth. There's no better feeling than getting back into a truck after a few days or so and just going
Is there a CFI near Tucson, Arizona by chance? I'm almost 21 looking into trucking.
So if I see some dude out in the middle of an empty parking lot with a go pro on his head talking to himself and aimlessly walking around, that's you?
I remember my very first load on my own. I was having an anxiety attack just backing in at a Walmart distribution center and now 6 and 1/2 years later. I'm still driving and doing fine
Your earned my subscription, Great video
Do you have a auto truck?
Yes
@@RidingWithDave Cool man so im young my dreams are to be a truck driver any advise?
Does Dave respond?
yep
@@RidingWithDave love ya videos, thats truckin lol 😂
"Rookie Trucking Life" I can definitely relate to that. Yes, I mean seriously, I had those exact same experiences.
Too good Dave! Another funny af video
I hope to work with CFI soon, I've been on the road before and understand that seeing someone is awesome,little things like this breaks up the redundancy.
Great videos Dave.
With you I see all America 🇺🇸 😉, just keep like that , God blass you
Greetings from Europe 👍❤
Your spine will despise you for that bobtail bearing lol
It's great to have allies like John on the road.
never stop asking questions bro! always keep learning 🤙
Can't believe I keep missing you! I was there yet again, finally got a load going to BOSTON
