Dan, we hope everything is ok with you...got us all a little worried .

[@jimeckenrode1271]

Dan, no one compares to you in the trucking video industry, I love the road travels and truck repair video's. You are the best.

[@Jesse-le9bh]

Like the way you keep your truck maintained. Thanks for sharing Dan.

[@johnnance648]

Hi Dan, thanks for the throwback intro, brings back the good old days....... Be safe out there, time for a surfboard shot.

[@brianboys9015]

Sunny spring sunday afternoon. Thanks .

[@familytraditiontransportat7951]

Id be pissed at that forklift operator... Lost count how many times he hit that side rail. Clearly didn't care about your equipment or his... Good job on the air leak - finding air leaks are my nemesis, getting good at it, especially with my old 80s equipment! Stay safe Dan! Btw that place you delivered.... Not my favorite to deal with! Thru there more than i want to admit

[@ssr4656]

That was my point exactly above, banging trailer and re-stacking on the trailer.

[@markthomas7270]

It's great to see that you take very good care of your Rig. As out here in the Seattle Area we hear all the time of Rigs that are just GARBAGE, and should not even be on the road at all. Being two Port Cities (Seattle & Tacoma) and all the Cargo container ships that we have coming and going, but the Truckers or there company's just do not do there up keep to keep the trucks Safe!!

[@kevinyork1326]

They call those fittings push to connect fittings. They are more like push to leak fittings. I like the old school compression style fittings. They hardly ever leak. If they do you usually just tighten them with a wrench and you then good to go.

Safe travels dan

[@rolfsinkgraven]

Very nice video Dan, nice you got them vents for free. Have a safe trip.

[@angler1262]

Hi Dan, great video. I'm going thru and watching all your videos for the second time. I noticed on video 249 I think, you talked about a new bookkeeping app for receipts and stuff and you said you would talk about it later but you haven't yet, I was wondering if you could let me/us know what it is and if your still using it. Thanks for all the Great videos and for what you do, I appreciate you.

[@TheDaf95xf]

Hey Dan if that Pet came with great seats you wouldn’t have that!!! Lol Sears Seating are the best over the road Truck Seats you can buy!!! Made here in Davenport, Iowa. 100% Amercian made!!!

[@scrappyhustler7467]

I agree 100% loved my sears seats and they last a damn long time as well!

[@matthewtalbot3141]

Great video as always , just discovered an issue with my Peterbilt. (384 , similar to yours only shorter wheel base then 386 ). I thought it was my hood making noise but turned out it was loose bolts on both inner fender liners on front fenders. Tightened them up and the front end rattling went away. Just wanted to put that out there. Keep it safe and await next video , my son is 6 and we watch together. He loves watching you tarp loads. I tell him Dan works harder then I ever do swinging doors ! Lol

[@ozzieulloa6088]

Your an inspiration for older guys wanting to go into trucking like me..😊

[@paulm3481]

It’s to bad that all truckers and there companies don’t take care of there trucks like you do .It shows pride in ownership..

[@angler1262]

Hi Dan, Haven't heard from you in awhile. I hope everything is OK. I hope freight hasn't slowed down and is still moving you along. Keep up the great job. Looking forward to your video.

[@rmeshr4282]

Dan, hope all is ok

[@NanceeRBMore]

When it rains it pours. The truck was doing well now you got it with a bunch of repairs. At least you do most of it yourself. If you had to pay for all those repairs it would really eat into the bottom line. If someone wants to be an OO they need to watch your videos and take note.

[@SteelyPaw]

3:31 I'm surprised you still have your "cow" sun-glasses, LOL - always nice seeing you Dan... You make a pretty good truck mechanic.... Take care and drive safe.....

[@bigunone]

Hey Dan, is everything okay, or are you just running hard?

[@williamfrancis4545]

Always liked when the operator wasn't to lazy to take 2 pallets at a time.

[@ssr4656]

Ya, but double stack them on the ground instead of on trailer.

[@williamfrancis4545]

@@ssr4656 Does it matter? Never bothered me. Just get them off the trailer.

[@tywinters9462]

William Francis yea it does matter. Unevenly distributing weight constantly to the trailer and causing it to tilt to one side more than the other will wear bushings out prematurely.

[@ssr4656]

@@williamfrancis4545 well one extra bump against trailer per two pallets, one more chance for pallet to come apart on trailer, a chance for more damage to trailer at higher levels, and probably could think of other reasons why it would not be my preferred method of unloading,I have hauled brick quite a bit and have never been unloaded like that, If you pick a pallet off the trailer does it not make sense to remove that pallet completely instead of trying to re-stack it back on the trailer, just my opinion but I would rather have the forklift operator do his re-stacking on the ground.

[@williamfrancis4545]

@@ssr4656 If you payed attention he never came close to bumping the trailer. I think Dan has been there before and the operator probably knows not to bump the trailer. Sorry but you aren't the only one who's pulled a flatbed.

[@HeuristicalWorker]

You are bright in a way, that I could never be--taught myself how to write Japanese, technical stock trading, quantitative analysis, html, who can do a complete set of building plans and specs, databases, tournament chess, sales management, or market analysis--whatever. But I am a tiny insect, next to you. To be able to fix things, deal with belts and couplings, never. You are a giant in a practical world, run by machines and devices. When the real SHTF moment comes, leaders of tribes will be trading and leveraging all their assets to trade for four doctors for just one of you. Essential knowledge in a world certain to fail, as we are currently going. A wizard of practicality and the stuff that runs the world, as it currently is.

Hi Dan, always wondered how your insurance works, some loads must be worth more than others, is it a set amount you pay yearly, did you have to take it easy with the new brakes until they bed in, enjoyed as usual, regards from Yorkshire England

I haven’t watched all of your videos but I would like to know about your fuel economy. Year of truck engine tranny how fast you run or do you even worry about it. I sure do and would like to compare notes to see if I could get better fuel economy. Especially when like this morning I paid $3.59 in Maryland.

[@JDAW9999]

Any air leak that can be heard is oos. May want to edit them parts of video

[@SuperTruckerdan]

Sorry but I have to correct you. It’s not ANY audible air leak is an Out of Service Violation. It’s an audible air leak on any Hose directly connected to the Braking system that is an out of service violation. 393.45(a) The hose that was leaking was not Connected to the braking system. The air hose that was leaking would fall under the Air Loss Rate Standards 396.3(a)(1)

[@JDAW9999]

I don’t mind being corrected. I was going off what I’d been told in Mercer’s inspection bays.

Yes any Air leak will fail a Mercer inspection but my air leak was not a out of service violation

morning Dan I have one question. did you not hear that throw out bearing going. being a desil jockey my self I had heard that bearing going for three month's. l follow all your videos. my last company I drove for 32 yrs and 3.8million miles squeeky clean record no tickets no accidents. l even done the ice road trucking in northern ontario for 14 years. the show ice road truckers is a joke the heaviest load I saw was 24 tons a d6 dozer .the rest of their loads we call popcorn loads l ran a mack super dog with a 100 ton rgn king quad axel delivering 80 to 100 ton transformers into all the Indian reservations and huge cat generators. the only good driver was Lisa kelly the Montana legend was just a loud mouth typical steering wheel holder art was a good driver but careless lmet them all 98% of the show was all staged and pure bullshit. this is my first post keep up the good work. I quit watching almost all the other u tubers too much bs and drama you be safe out there brother cause accident is just a word till it happens and safety never takes a holiday .

Just found your channel & subscribed I’m a independent owner operator. We look at things differently, however you & I have a lot of the same goals. I always look at ROI (return on investment) if I put a $10,000 down payment on a truck what is my return? I usually make around 200% to 300% return on my 10K after paying myself & all the truck bills. I then use that return to invest in rental property, I’m not rich but it does work for me.
