Great job Alex. We need more truckers like yourself out there. Nothing on TV these days so it's a pleasure to follow guys like yourself. Be safe and take care. Rick
Hi Alex, as a truck driver for 30 years, it's good to see new drivers like yourself out on the road. Just remember, you'll learn something new every day. Stay safe out there
Alex, I am highly impressed with your politeness with letting other drivers in and being considerate of others out on the road. Also, I am impressed with you cooking in your truck on a daily basis. I’m sure a lot of drivers at your age would do fast food or microwave dinners. I’m not a trucker however wish I could practice some of your habits that possess. Keep Trucking young man!
You are one of the safest most considerate truckers on the road. Guys like you should train because most of the trainers aren't as meticulous as you are. Stay safe brotha
A video about starting your day off as a trucker would be interesting. Maybe not showing whole pre trip but just some key things you check before you start. Thanks for the vids
Great to see such a hard working and dedicated young man. You are awesome and I really enjoy your videos. The trucking profession needs tens of thousands more like you. Keep up the great work man! 🙂
Great video. I thank you for being a safe truck driver, and one that is considerate of other drivers. Love your videos. I thank you for taking us along.
If you were in Cleveland and had to go near Indianapolis you took the long way going across the turnpike. As a fellow driver you take me back to when I was a rookie. Be safe!!
I was thinking the same thing, tried to save the company money by staying off of the pay road, plus better choices of truckstops, I had three routes I'd use crossing Montana (as an example) the interstate, US-12 or MT-200, why you ask???..... certain weather conditions I'd rather run the two-lane to avoid the Retards!!!!!!!
I really enjoy your videos Alex, you’re a good and courteous driver. I miss driving so much, I took early retirement after 40 years of driving. I believe that northern Indiana runs central time zones , answering the question time between Ohio and Indiana. Be safe and God bless you Alex.
And can Do it … take ur medical card and head to DMV passing 3 tests and join any school to teach u round skill test and then back to dmv to get ur test and that’s all buddy….
Hello Alex I really enjoy your videos. I drove OTR 25 years ago and I don’t miss it. I think your attitude is awesome. I can relate to a lot of what you go through. Today I drive gas tankers and will be retiring soon. But I’ll keep watching your videos, you make me feel like I’m there with you. Thanks
I do not even drive trucks and I enjoy watching your channel occasionally. It makes me more aware as I thought I always was on being more considerate to big riggers.
I'm still in school and I've been watching your channel and after watching all of your videos you seem content and happy living on the road and yeah trucking is not for everyone but after watching you for so long if I don't have a significant other before I get out of high school I'm going to trucking school and getting my cdl and I will become a otr trucker your awesome keep up these cool videos can't wait for the next one
I really think the federal government should mandate people with regular licenses to go through school and learn safety as we have to. It’d not only help them understand but would deter some from even wanting to drive.
Just for fun, you should poll your subs to see what percentage that watch are A) in trucking, B) plan on being in trucking in future, (C) not in trucking but a family member is or D) no trucking, just watch because you enjoy the content. I'd be curious to know! I'm option D btw. Cheers!
You and riding with Dave make me want to be a truck driver, but I’m 15, so kinda hard to do that 😂😂😂 Edit: I can practically smell the food you’re cooking
Trucking in the US seems like a holiday compared to trucking in Africa, more specifically Southern Africa. I've been trucking for 16 years in the whole of Southern Africa and believe me, its getting worse and more dangerous by the day. Of this wasnt the case, I would still be trucking today. I really miss it.
Alex, I know you are still learning, and you have a lot of curiosity about the industry still, but I have to thank you for being a professional and taking the job seriously. When I first started watching your TH-cam shorts I was thinking "boy this kid is a clueless greenhorn" but you are doing a fine job. You give me hope for the young generation of drivers. Stay safe young man. Btw, what is your tractor number, I pass Variant trucks every day and I always look to see if it's you
Personally I still think that he is clueless, when getting ready to start my day I knew where I was going to get fuel at without having to rely on a gps....or am I just weird???? Is it just me or does Alex think that he's driving a muscle car........ last time that I knew company trucks are dialed back for fuel mileage not for performance.............🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@RiverRatWA57, he's got a lot of learning ahead of him but he is safe and courteous. That's more than I can say about 90% of the low IQ bottom feeding steering wheel holders out here.
@@altf4713 gps should be an Aid, you should not be 100% reliant on it. One truck gps that I had would freeze up just as I approached the Illinois state line headed westbound on I-80, the farthest I ever got with it locked up was Fargo. Did I know how to clear it, yes, I just wanted to see how long it would stay in that condition. Never had that problem using my truckers road atlas...............
That was my neck of the woods. Ohio turnpike is replacing the toll system and building highway speed tolling. There was a new love's at the Ohio Indiana line, between the toll barriers.
Started trucking young… I’m 43 and I’ve only been on the road about three years…. Half my life was spent in factory and manufacturing and the other half was in the transportation business towing and auto repair…
Very nice driving in this video..I was wondering if that Kenworth could go further than 20 miles.. and it can :) Also, I'm very impressed with your cooking ability inside the truck.. Top chef !! Thanks for the video.. cheers.
Hey Alex, Does Variant allow you to talk about the loads you run? Question, do you have to any strapping or securing of your loads? And are loads on a schedule?
If you watched his videos all the way through you would know he has secured a load before and he says he has to deliver loads by a certain day and time
@@OhShitBitch-xg1ue Ok, what is he hauling right now and how was it secured? I know it needed to be there before or at 12 noon. So, chill!!. I was hoping to get a response from Alex. Not a hostile response from you.
@@TheRoadhammer379 I ran refrigerated, the company that I ran for we used loadlocks, some refrigerated trailers had those (I believe they are called Erails) in the walls that you could use loadbars or straps for load securement.
why am i hooked on alex's vids?? i'm not a truck driver, bus somewhat in the industry. drive a lot though, and now i have a better insight of his profession and i promised not to cuss truck drivers anymore 🙂, and also try to be more courteous when on the road.
Of the few videos I’ve seen you with Variant and the many more I’ve seen you with GPT I must say I’d rather be with Variant. That’s for me personally,to each his own 😅😅
You talking bout the people cutting you of from the shoulder makes me think of last year I was somewhere in mo early in the morning and the driver of the oak ridge Boys bus did that to me lol
Wanna be a trucker but I'm in the horrendous country of Canada with bad trucker treatment, incredibly low pay and $20000 required to even become a trucker... Disgrace

Hey there
Everyone is safe when the camera is rolling. lol big brain
@@OregonCrow fr😂
I'm almost 18 and got a year left in highschool. Over the past few months my goals have shifted to trucking and hopefully working with your company
Hi Alex! After watching your videos months ago, I got my truck license and I’m hauling round Australia these days. Cheers for the cool videos!

I love the new style of videos and I love love how often you're posting long vlogs!
I wouldn’t mind a 5hr video of the full drive. Or any drives worth of 5hrs. Or shorter actually! Love the videos 🖤.
Great video. I thank you for being a safe truck driver, and one that is considerate of other drivers. Love your videos. I thank you for taking us along.
These vlogs are so neat, I almost feel like I'm driving and living this life.
The long nose conventional tractors may not be as efficient as more streamlined trucks but they are great to look at. Pure nostalgia
Good afternoon Alex. Hope you have a great day and stay safe out there. Love your videos.

you should report more road reports on your cb...other truckers behind you will be very happy to hear your road hazard reports.
Love the long videos keep them up

I want to be a truck driver from watching your videos
Trust me you don’t want to be

Really have enjoyed your videos. Good driving displayed. Stay safe and keep those wheels "a turning".

Thanks for being so considerate.........you do get a little excited about everything though
This was a fun video, I enjoyed the longer format :)
I've just subscribed to the channel... Loving your content from South Africa 🇿🇦
Try putting your front tires to 100 Psi Feels Way better
Love you videos cheers from Toronto
Your'e a great semi trucker keep up the great work
Man, your very safe driver!
You should do a video on weird cb talk. Just try to record random stuff over a month or something. Never seen that before
That was my neck of the woods. Ohio turnpike is replacing the toll system and building highway speed tolling. There was a new love's at the Ohio Indiana line, between the toll barriers.
Enjoy your videos. Thank you
love your channel Alex, your the bomb! ha ha as im watching from bakersfield ca, 70 here today stay safe man, as i jsut found your channel
There is a time zone difference Indiana has 2 different time zones one is Eastern other is Central
Have done repair work at Loves, they tend to be pretty clean
Started trucking young… I’m 43 and I’ve only been on the road about three years…. Half my life was spent in factory and manufacturing and the other half was in the transportation business towing and auto repair…
Alex: is this guy have a governor for 65mph ?
Me, playing ATS: 😅
Dame nice feeling while driving in a rainy.😮
You're right. There is a Bob watching your video. That's me.
Good day to you Alex.
Be safe
Bob
I like you're channel so much! I'm driving Bus in Germany/ Berlin. Nice greetings
I’ve had my CDLs since 1989 , love it ! I’ve been everywhere man I’ve been everywhere!! Lol
You are always around me, I'm in Columbus,Oh. Its a great hub for outbound to the west coast
You da man Alex
Good morning Alex!!!
Alex your funny when u tell your truck to go, I fell out laughing, so do u get pretty good mile loads? Stay safe and keep on truckin
Fun fact. The key is to the left of the steering wheel to get a quicker Le Mans start.
Your guy so cute 🥰 I want to be truck driver too although now I’m over 50 years old!good luck guy!
Yes, back in the day Indiana had several time zones, crazy right?
That is why an 18 speed truck is the best to drive power and good take off speed
Hi its Bob! Love your videos. Always wanted to drive a truck but I am too old now
Yes Indiana has two different time zones Central and Eastern time zones
One day he.ll make a trucker.He is a.good guy.
You have the coolest narration voice.
So, USX has pretty much killed off Variant. How do you feel about that?
Really great content ❤❤❤
Good afternoon hope you ok 👌 fixing to go get my CDL
Very nice driving in this video..I was wondering if that Kenworth could go further than 20 miles.. and it can :) Also, I'm very impressed with your cooking ability
inside the truck.. Top chef !! Thanks for the video.. cheers.
Man I wish you came to Europ and see you drive like a creazy dud there to be 50kmh and you to drive with 50mph don't forget 1mph 6kmh
How long will you pursue trucking? What would you do after your truck career?
Aye you always in my area I swear jasper county Indiana for you

Great job Alex hope to see ya in the DFW area we could have lunch lol funny laugh btw
In Oregon highways are speed limit is 55MPH

What kind of truck do you drive? For whatever reason I thought trucks were 18 gears manual. Looks like yours is automatic.
Good video Alex 📚💯
Yes Alex does a great job and it’s a fun n job but feel bad for all your waiting
Welcome to loves!!!!
Muy buenos videos ¿Podrías contarnos que equipos audiovisuales usas?
You talking bout the people cutting you of from the shoulder makes me think of last year I was somewhere in mo early in the morning and the driver of the oak ridge Boys bus did that to me lol
You should clean and disinfect that grill. It’s dirty with leftover old food on it.
Alex. Can you tailgate other truck to save fuel? will you get a ticket?
Time for my trucking fix.
Now I feel bad for getting mad when a truck won’t let me pass or switch lanes
Wanna be a trucker but I'm in the horrendous country of Canada with bad trucker treatment, incredibly low pay and $20000 required to even become a trucker... Disgrace
Watching your videos makes me want to give OTR another chance, even though I hated it😅
