Rooster Laid Down On Me Pulling 122,000lbs Thru A Ice Storm!!

[@TruckerMadsen]

You're a goodhearted neighbour. And really giving it your all when working like a locomotive. Thank god for people like you

[@kennyspry5189]

I have found out with Air Air compressor if you don't use them they will cease up due to not getting lubricated. You need to run them every once in awhile to lube the seals and bearings. Even in the winter time it's good to turn your air on for a few minutes just to keep it lubricated.

[@threynolds2]

Many newer vehicles run the A/C compressor when the defroster is turned on to remove moisture from the air being blown on the windshield.

[@BuckInchuteranch1]

Most anything newer than mid 1980’s-90’s

[@stevestevens9046]

I had a 73 Chevy that was that way

I used to keep a couple of those adjustable belts in my truck. They saved me a couple of times and once I had to drive almost 200 miles on one until I could find someplace that had the right size belt.

[@barblemons5397]

If I don’t care for a persons videos I don’t watch them let them do their thing to each their own. Some episodes I may not care about and I just pass it by but I am not going to complain about it. Some people try to build themselves up by putting somebody else down it doesn’t work that way. Keep on trucking Tim!

To everyone who gives Tim a hard time on how he loads things or ties it down. Leave him be he's been in the trucking game long enough he knows what he is doing 💯. I don't see you guys out there doing it that's for damn sure cause if that was the case.

It's truck drivers, there is nothing they can't do or haven't done. Most of the ones running their 🐔 holders are full of it. Company or 1 truck operators. Best part is they just keep coming back to give views.

Rainx the mirrors and rainx wiper blades

I'm retired now but when I was driving truck back in I think it was around 1990 I picked up a load in Fallon Nevada and it was 30 degree's below zero and I never wanted to do that again !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@buckrogers2828]

One of the reasons why you run the aircon once in a while plus when it's cold you can use to provide heat!. But you can use the Green APU if no Alternator as charges batteries.

They make a belt that you can put together at whatever length you want and it would let getting it over the fan not an issue as well

I was driving through all that. Definitely test a drivers skills. Scary thing is all the drivers out here that never even driven a car in ice and get pushed by these mega carriers to keep going when they aren't even capable of driving on dry roads.

Absolutely. It's a tough job for sure.

I am sooooo glad that Truck Driver said something to that idiot these new drivers especially over seas drivers. They think they can do whatever they want to do it's about time you real Truck drivers. Start taking back time and getting back to the good ole days and don't take anymore crap. I understand you have to be careful cuz they love calling the cops BUT if everyone would stick together.

Does anybody watch Trucking with Schmidt? He's looking for a part for his Kenworth W900 the low air light /alarm that gets mounted above the driver. He's having a hellva time finding one and Kenworth apparently does make them anymore. Please help if you can? Thank you all.

[@garysullivan5285]

I watch him sometimes but I haven’t seen his most recent videos. Been subscribed to him for a few years now. He seems like a good guy and it sucks that he’s having trouble. I love that W900 he has and I wish the best of luck to him. Maybe he can find one on an old wreck or something. I know he has an older truck. Tim would probably love that ol Freightliner Schmidt has too.

[@tabithasalb9903]

@garysullivan5285 I think that Kurt sold the freightliner last year or so. He's looked at all the places he could think of. In his recent video he reached out to see if anybody had ideas or sources that might have the part he is looking for.

[@markdepermentier4361]

Ever feel like you're the only one on the road? That was some nasty stuff right there. Not sure about KW, never messed with my ac pump. Everything else but the pump. But, if it was the pump clutch stuck, you did what you had to do. If it was the pump stuck, you can turn off the defrost and the clutch releases. Won't have a defrost. Most vehicles anyway.
