@@matthewmartinez8874 Was about to mention that. @ALEXTHETRUCKINGGUY Get the Sweet and Spicy Bacon Burger next time you're in Texas. It's the only thing I get when I go to Whataburger.
I have been watching your videos from a long time. There's something quite interesting and calming in your videos that glue me to it. Great Work ! Carry on .
The smoke is probably his DEF system cleaning itself out. You won't notice it if you keep moving. It would normally clean itself out when you are driving at a steady pace.
In the warehouse I work at we normally have the trailers dropped off by a switcher, but when we have a trailer that a driver docked and is waiting to get unloaded we call those live loads, those we take anywhere from 10-15 mins to unload just so we can get stuff out of there and the driver on his way out, but also some take about 1-2 hours because the office doesn’t tell us when they arrived or at what door there at so we have no idea when there here.
Strange scale. 1-7? 😂1-5 or 1-10😂I love Whataburger. I noticed that your burger was not wrapped nicely. It was half unwrapped when you pulled it out of the bag. Glad you tried it out.
I do love California. Beautiful mountains. It makes the drive interesting. Once summer hits I'll ask to go out west more but right now the weather there is dangerous to drive in
Be careful handing someone money in public because, in some cases they will snatch and run or case you and Rob you later. With that being said welcome to Texas. Try your burger with grilled onions and Jalapeños Amigo. 🎉
Alex, you can fit your loadlocks across the back of your cab, pressing on the insides of your aero fairings, just above the fuel tanks and below your air connectors.
A year and a half later, you'd think he would've known that by now. He's still so green. Of course he'll get paid hub miles and not actual, and get screwed for the scaling waste of time because of a stinkin' shipper. I doubt GP TRANSCO would compensate him.
You were a Whataburger virgin, Alex. I lived in Texas for 15 years. Too damn hot! But used to love me Whataburger! My daughter still works at one there. I don't understand why they don't expand into the Midwest and the East.
OH gawd you are in Houston. Bless you heart they don't understand that we need to go. They will take on average 2 to 5 hours to unload your truck, and if you have a pick up there.. forget it. Call you dispatch to reschedule your delivery
Hopefully not only GP charge that pickup for extra steps they had you take going back and forth, but you get compensated for all the wasted time doing all that. Don't they know the weight of their own crap???
Whataburger is King in Texas. Next time ask for the buns toasted on both sides and meat well done. If you're really hungry try the Triple meat with cheese.
Love Houston, and well aware many Texans rave about Whataburger. But Whataburger does nothing for me. If you ever have the time, Pappadeaux is great, but that's two orders of magnitude above fast food $ wise.
Was hired to help a driver load his truck with outdated server equipment. There was the driver and then 5 of us helpers. It took us 2 whole days to get him loaded.
As far as I know it is illegal to drive with a load without a bill of lading. Requiring you to check your weight before giving you your paperwork is not legal to my knowledge. If I'm correct the D.O.T. could have a field day hanging around this shipper. Someone please correct me if there is an exception to this.
You're lucky the Whataburger you stopped at was decent. Here in NE FL, they're garbage. Customers wait for and hour, sometimes longer, and get cold food. Plus, it's an act of God if they get your order right. Not sure what Whataburgers are like elsewhere, here? They abysmal. Great vids, kid. Keep 'em coming.
What’s up man your videos are dope, it’s almost like I’m living your life in my reincarnation as a truck driver under your camera which is your eyes pretty much lol
I was born and raised in Houston I actually parked in that same spot one time and took a 10-hour break because I wanted Whataburger. You'll be fine nobody's going to mess with you but you do have some homeless panhandling in that area. Asking for money.
that's funny: first you say you like Texas because of the empty roads (mostly) and minutes later you have had the most hectic ride you had (even though you DID drive Eastern Seaboard as well as Chicago-area 🤔)

@ALEXTHETRUCKINGGUY Get the Sweet and Spicy Bacon Burger next time you're in Texas. It's the only thing I get when I go to Whataburger.
imagine one day , you're travelling and then taking a break at some place , and then hearing out of nowhere someone saying "GET OFF MY TRUCK"
yeah and that guy would be like " wtf this dude is talking to invisible man" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol that's how you know he's been in the truck too long
I love his accent lol
Backing tip, you can slide your trailer axels to the back making it easier to back into tight spots without the 10 ft overhang
We can officially say that Alex is loosing it 😂😂
Lol yup
Yup…
WhataAlex!
It's losing, sheesh not that hard to spell losing....
Hope this is not the start of within 3 years skinny Alex will not be going for The 350+ pd. Average Cross Country Truck Driver Look!!!
😂😂😂
I have been watching your videos from a long time. There's something quite interesting and calming in your videos that glue me to it. Great Work ! Carry on .
I really hope you post a video about the night at Whatabuger! And the morning after.
Alex is great, he takes great pride in his work which so missing these days.
As a Texan, proud of you for getting whataburger. Next time I recommend the green Chile double or patty melt dipped in the jalapeño ranch
Also, yea those south and east Texas bugs don't play
Good morning Alex!!! I’m wishing you safe travels. I would love to visit Texas someday. Thanks for sharing. ❤ Newark Jersey ❤
You have so much patience. 😏
I was in New Jersey this past weekend delivering a load
Cool ✌🏻
I originate from Newark, NJ.
Hi Alex. Put your load lock behind the cab of your truck; same area you hang your broom. Safe travels bro
Be careful with those load locks on uninsulated trailers. They can blow out the side panels and frame.
The smoke is probably his DEF system cleaning itself out. You won't notice it if you keep moving. It would normally clean itself out when you are driving at a steady pace.
yes more of this pls!! i miss your cooking vlogs
So miss Whataburger! 😊
Learned a lot from watching this guy plan on trucking soon! 😄
Alex, just attach the bar as you would when you have a load after you're done
Then, it's secured. No worries
When I was stationed in Texas, I used to love going to Whataburger for their shakes. To me, their shakes are THE BEST!!!!!
I enjoy your videos from South Africa
Imagine being on your day and a half and seeing someone sweeping the side of their truck screaming😭😭
THAT'S WHAT CHICKS DO. JUST SAYING

21:45 that’s why I carry. I understand carrying is not for everyone, but it’s my choice and I feel way safer in places like that.
Yup some people are just uneducated when it comes to guns bro, I always carry I avoid places that are not 2A friendly lol
Dear Alex….hahahaha….so you’re officially retiring….that was one of those days! Keep smiling! Love your videos. 😊

Hahaha that’s what I was thinking 1-7 lol
@@alonsocastillo8194 😂
Alex, you are coocoo for coco puffs but that's why we love you.
Put the load lock behind the bulkhead of the tractor for storage with your broom
Next he be asking for a haul to California to stop in a In & Out Burger.
In & Out Burger are in TX now
He doesn’t even have to leave state for in & out
I do love California. Beautiful mountains. It makes the drive interesting. Once summer hits I'll ask to go out west more but right now the weather there is dangerous to drive in
@@MrCrazycook8
I heard they was good. I never had 1 on the east coast yet.
@@ALEXTHETRUCKINGGUY
You got that right. Just the wind right now blow you out of Wyoming into Arizona or Minnesota depending on the wind direction.
Be careful handing someone money in public because, in some cases they will snatch and run or case you and Rob you later. With that being said welcome to Texas. Try your burger with grilled onions and Jalapeños Amigo. 🎉
Alex, you can fit your loadlocks across the back of your cab, pressing on the insides of your aero fairings, just above the fuel tanks and below your air connectors.
It's a freightliner. They normally come with 8 holders on the back for newer trucks.
11:45 Alex never do that. You’re driving away with no Bill of Ladings. How do you explain that to DOT? Is your company paying you for those miles?
I thought the same.
A year and a half later, you'd think he would've known that by now. He's still so green. Of course he'll get paid hub miles and not actual, and get screwed for the scaling waste of time because of a stinkin' shipper. I doubt GP TRANSCO would compensate him.
Thanks for the laughs and you are so funny.
Is it just me or this guy voice sounds like a cartoon character
For me maybe he sounds like squidward from spongebob squarepants
Very nice, you are a natural amigo. Like your attitude
Dang if I were one of those bugs I wouldn’t go near Alex’s truck 😂
GET OFF OF MY TRUCK!!! lol
This one ended on a cliffhanger. Did Alex get another burger?? 🍔🍟
No. I was full after the first one
Love your videos , I'm a Class 1 Tanker driver in the UK .My longest wait was 9 hours it was painfull !
We have those types of places here, too. Alex just hasn't had the "pleasure", yet.
Yeah, we have those places in the US too
"On a scale of 1-7." You're wild for that 😂
You were a Whataburger virgin, Alex. I lived in Texas for 15 years. Too damn hot! But used to love me Whataburger!
My daughter still works at one there. I don't understand why they don't expand into the Midwest and the East.
Welcome to the big state!!
Whataburger is avg I'm moving to Texas soon and will have to deal with it. Happy to see In-N-Out is in Texas because it's way better.
The thing that you took off your trailer inside your Trailer goes on the back of your truck. There should be holders.
The rattle in your truck is the microwave glass plate!!!
OH gawd you are in Houston. Bless you heart they don't understand that we need to go. They will take on average 2 to 5 hours to unload your truck, and if you have a pick up there.. forget it. Call you dispatch to reschedule your delivery
Now I'm Hungry 😆👊✌️😉 B safe Alex
Next time you want to go to What-A-Burger, just make sure you take Bobby Hill with you. He'll show you _exactly_ how to handle it!
😂 👍🏼😎👍🏼
Good choice! When you get a chance, go to a Burger King in Texas and order a Texas Double!
Big king xl is only thing worth getting at BK
@@Scrappygymrat Texas whopper
Don’t sweat it, I had to wait 7 hours to get unloaded
Portillo's is the best my buddy moved to Florida and still ships it by the barrel from Illinois
Hopefully not only GP charge that pickup for extra steps they had you take going back and forth, but you get compensated for all the wasted time doing all that. Don't they know the weight of their own crap???
You really shouldn't go back to the truckstop without the bills, just so the shipper doesn't try to say you stole the load,
Whataburger is King in Texas. Next time ask for the buns toasted on both sides and meat well done. If you're really hungry try the Triple meat with cheese.
The Mustang that was blocking your way at the wattaburger, is actually a Chevy Camaro lol.
Love Houston, and well aware many Texans rave about Whataburger. But Whataburger does nothing for me. If you ever have the time, Pappadeaux is great, but that's two orders of magnitude above fast food $ wise.
FYI , it’s called a pick up , a reload . Not a delivery, unless you are unloading then it’s a delivery.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 . Be safe have a good one .
Another banger!
love this video and glad to support you thanks for the video i love burger places lol
Alex, my friend you're amazing.
Lmao Alex, you are super funny bro. lol i cant stop laugh. "Get of my truck!!!!!!!!"
Was hired to help a driver load his truck with outdated server equipment. There was the driver and then 5 of us helpers. It took us 2 whole days to get him loaded.
Great video love it
Your videos are great keep going
3:22 that’s cute. Takes like 6+ hrs at HEB in San Antonio. 😅
6+ hrs thats cute try 11+ hrs at target in Rialto

Looks yummy 😋
Safe roads always trucker 🚛🚛🚛👍
Hope to see you out there. This is the band it that's my CB handle.
If you ever drive thru NM, stop at a LOTABURGER have with it green chili and cheese, t'll be worth it.
Every WhatABurger has a photo of a Little League team. I use to know one of the kids on that team.
That was a sick Chevy mustang 😅😊 15:18
I put the load bar in back of the cab where the airlines go. I have a little spot Hi bungee cord them to the back.
Ever time we got out of town with my grandpa we always stop at whataburger even in Houston
Put the bar across the trailer at the top at height level to store it
What’s up man your videos are dope, it’s almost like I’m living your life in my reincarnation as a truck driver under your camera which is your eyes pretty much lol
Gotta get the patty melt next time you go to Whataburger. That's where it's at
Welcome to Texas weather unpredictable and bugs are hungry
04:25 me quedé esperando tu clásico "ayayay" 😅
Alex, you tell them bugs! 💪
You need to try In-N-Out Double double...
I was born and raised in Houston I actually parked in that same spot one time and took a 10-hour break because I wanted Whataburger. You'll be fine nobody's going to mess with you but you do have some homeless panhandling in that area. Asking for money.
Alex the trucking food critic? Alex are you branching out?
I noticed you always get the jasmine rice try the Spanish rice it's so good ! Alot of sodium tho
2:22 it's your old friend CFI 🤣🤣🤣
that's funny: first you say you like Texas because of the empty roads (mostly) and minutes later you have had the most hectic ride you had (even though you DID drive Eastern Seaboard as well as Chicago-area 🤔)
who does scale of 1 to 7? 😂
I thought the scale of 1-7 was some weird American thing. But reading the comments, I assume it's apparently not.
No, he's got we fellow Americans scratching our heads on that one, too. 😂
@@billfryer5911 lol
Hey Alex! I'm thinking you need some off duty time! Bill NYPD Retired 😁
Only a sleep deprived trucker would rate a burger on a scale from 1-7
Oh not better than Steak and Shake? We gotta fight now, pull over we gotta fight in the Whataburger parking lot now!
Dude had a major freak out moment @ 4:21
In my area. The neighborhood you’re in definitely don’t want overnight.
Love listening to him chew.....!!! 😧
Jasmine rice is my favorite. I sometimes put soy sauce in it, so good
lol you literally mentioned the curb as I was looking at it.
Welcome to Texas sir
😂 “come on get out the way mustang”. Sir that’s a Camaro. Great video though
7:14 I hate the new scale app. I was so used to the old one. It looks cheap now. Btw, are you in Houston? I hate that Love’s.
The next chance you have to go to whataburger get a Sweet N Spicy Bacon Burger on a Brioche Bun with Jalapeño Ranch.
Alex, just store it where you store your broom
Rated whataburger
on a scale of 1-7. Gave it a 71% out of 100%
Whataburger is just not as good as it was in the 80ds and 90ds.
But it is good!
I live in Texas it's a burger 🍔!
But I like your style of driving.
Are we just gonna ignore the fact he called a Camaro a mustang? Ok
ehr. Not exactly. 3rd remark about that, as far as I've seen.
