Christopher E. Fiffie - Rolling CB Interview™

I've got the keys to "Contender"! The guys at J&L Contracting had asked several times earlier in the year if I'd like to drive it. It's been almost 10 years since I drove a combination.
Before the 2015 Chrome Shop Mafia - Guilty By Association Truck Show in Joplin, Missouri got underway there was time to hit Highway 44. Randy Menkel drove the camera car and Doug Jameson rode shotgun. We were supposed to talk about upgrades to Contender, but Randy had questions... and the 1st reverse Rolling CB Interview was in progress.
Contender is a 2015 heavy spec Peterbilt / 600 Cummins / 18 speed / 4 speed auxiliary / 22k front axle / 4.10 rears. Upgrades - Various motor upgrades / 3 color painted motor / lowered 5 inches / custom visor & window tops from Brunner Fabrication / Valley Chrome bumper / 2016 Blackhawk RGN with under glow on the trailer as well as the truck.

(at 10:25) That's what makes your videos so unique and inspiring. You listen and you ask the right questions. You give a trucker a voice. Bottom line, every trucker has a story. The rigs are beautiful and they move America, but it's these road heroes that are fascinating to get to know. Thanks again, Chris and thanks to the truckers.

[@cfiffie]

Thanks, I appreciate that!

Chris looks right at home in the Large Car!

Hello Chris. I'm a driver of 22 years, and really enjoy watching your videos, and the message you're getting out to the public. I have to say this is one of my favorites. I'm sure it was a great experience for you to flip the perspective. Hats off to the kind gentlemen to give you the opportunity. keep up the great work.

[@EvanStegerMetalPolishing]

One of the best groups of guys right here.

+Evan Steger Thanks bud!

[@HyperActive7]

You seem like a real natural behind the wheel. Maybe it is just me but I think you're really famous when the truckers offer you a chance to drive their rides!

[@turemesure3456]

Great to see the legend drivin himself!!! 73's and a Super10 on the road Driver😎

[@cfiffie]

Thank ya sir

[@FoolishDreams2010]

Haha awesome video, it may be just me, but does anyone else think Chris kinda looks like Easy-E?? lol Cruisin' down the street in a big '79, floatin' the gears, rollin' the coal....

It's Time for another reverse interview Chris! It's awesome to see you do great keep up the great work!!

LMAO when he said "Pick up your lot lizard and well be ready" at 1:40

[@stanleywilliams134]

I was just about to say the same thing. loo

[@cntslesfabrication]

@Logan Mckiddy very true good sir. Out here in Vegas everyone knows what a lot lizard is because they are at the strip club until it gets slow and then they go to there 2nd job so they can pay for College. FML LoL agree???

[@stanleywilliams134]

I don't know what it is about this video, but to me this video is so inspirational. I don't know why it is. They say that you can take the driver out of the truck, but you can't take the truck out of the driver. Me being only 16 amd growing up around trucking. This past summer was the first year I didn't go on the road. It kills me. I know I get chances to go up to my brothers semi, and I know when I get those chances, I enjoy the crap out of them.

[@crxtfr]

just like he never left...Ridin low and lookin' good

[@richardrilling4360]

I don't know much about big rigs, or the Trucking profession. However I really enjoy these Rolling Interview videos. Because Christopher does an exceptional job TALKING with people. It's not only what questions he asks, but HOW he asks the questions. He always gives the Drivers an opportunity to share their concerns, and challenges. Keep up the good work.

[@TheDodgetruck1]

Awesome job Chris. I'm sure it felt great to drive one again and it gave is all a different insight on you thanks for all you do in the trucking world. Be safe in your travels and keep you the great work you do!!!!

So fun watching you truckin hammer down west bound in a bad as ss red n' black heavy hauler. Several years back I saw your business venture tears began rolling down my face, grateful for you. Thank you for showing our nation how TRUCKS ARE IMPORTANT. TRUCKERS MOVE AMERICA WITHOUT TRUCKERS LIFE AS WE KNOW IT STOPS IN 70 hours. I've been a trucker 3 million miles 42 states, Quebec, Montreal, Woodstock hauling nearly every commodity on the planet. Love every minute of it irregardless of all the new regulations gettin shoved down my outfit lol. I'm proud my rigs are still trucking 38 years later. Somebody said I wouldn't last six months out here. Be Safe Chris. Bless you.

Awesome video Chris. Glad to see you behind the wheel of that outstanding ride. I've been out of driving myself for almost 6 yrs due to a kid falling asleep and hitting me head on. I grew up with my dad driving and I drove for 13 before the accident. I miss it all the time and alot of your videos have hit me hard. Thank you for what you do.

[@BigRigVideos]

+Wayne Forni Aww man! I'm sorry to hear that! That really sucks. I hope that you can continue to enjoy life away from the big trucks. Glad you are here on the channel.

it is nice to finally see the guy dong the cb interview I have watched a bunch of the videos they are all great keep them coming thanks.

[@american_patriotcummins8838]

Thank you for what you do. Ive never put much thought into these rigs. Heck ive only ever riden in one big rig. But after getting hooked on your videos i have a new love for these beauty's. Rollin down hwy30 today, I pulled up next to a murdered out Peterbilt. I was in love at first sight

[@xcxNelsonxcx]

Hay man, I just subscribed not to long ago and I'll say I'm so glad I did your videos are awesome and they bring back memories from being young when both my parents were trucking! Thanks for all the awareness you bring, keep em comin! Gotta say it was a plus seeing you behind the wheel too not what I expected

[@leestimson12]

Chris, I ran on to your videos a couple weeks ago and love them. Very well done, some of the best on KZbin in my opinion. I can't drive anymore. Years ago I had a seizure while fueling at the 76 West of Indy. Can't drive until 8 years being off meds. For me that will be 2022 and I will be 70 yrs. old. It's true, you can take the driver off the road but you can't take the road out of the driver. Don't change a thing on your videos.

[@benlock8147]

hey +BigRigVideos this was one cool reverse rolling cb interview and it was cool to see you driving such a bad ass truck also it was nice of the owners of the truck to allow you to drive it n keep these awesome vids coming as i really enjoy watching them n hearing all the great n bad things the truckers say

I am not a driver, I have chosen a different path in life by serving the military and worked for Caterpillar for many years. I am originally a farm kid from ND. I love big trucks and I am a huge fan of the industry. I have been lucky enough to ride with professionals like Paul Delong Heavy Haul in Vegas. Thanks again for doing this. I can live my dream through these videos. Keep the videos coming...thank you and hammer down...

They were the second half of the "airmatic" transmissions. I've got a 4x4 so 4 on the stick and 4 on the splitter. Taught me the basics of a twin stick at least. But what I don't understand is those transmissions were only rated for 1,000 ft lbs of torque.

Christopher, I'm a recent subscriber, and I must say I really enjoy your videos!! Being that you're from Deerfield, FL, gives me hope that I can do this, and enter the trucking industry. I'm in Hollywood, FL, at home studying for my permit... I've been a bit apprehensive about entering the industry at such an older age of 45yrs old, and leaving the security of my county job, but I feel I must finally quell that burning question in my head "what if I had given trucking a shot". Thank You for what you do, keep it up. God, bless, by safe out there!
