[@Devils_Arrow]

As a truck driver myself, seeing how in-depth and respectful you are regarding this kind of job, makes me love you even more.

[@Ihavebeenwatchingyou]

did you see him driving the cab over without mirrors?

[@Devils_Arrow]

@@Ihavebeenwatchingyou he did also specify like five times in this video that the truck isn't done yet and he didn't like the idea of taking it out before it was completed.

[@Ihavebeenwatchingyou]

@@Devils_Arrow Have you ever driven a truck without mirrors? I had mine broken a couple times in city traffic, it's not something any respectful truck driver would ever choose to do.

[@Devils_Arrow]

@@Ihavebeenwatchingyou you're going out of your way to essentially insult the guy's integrity here. It's very clear that you didn't listen to what he was saying. Regardless, your negativity serves no purpose here. He could buy your rig 10 times over and still have play money to live off of for the rest of his life, yet he spends his time using these trucks and other equipment to help people and ADD value to the lives of those around him. You're worried about a side mirror.

[@Ihavebeenwatchingyou]

@@Devils_Arrow You are right, if he runs over a car changing lanes he can always use the 'but my rig is not finished yet' defense. Or do the road rules not apply to rich people? I don't believe it's being negative to point out how incredibly stupid it is to choose to drive a truck without mirrors. He has the time, money and resources to stick a couple of mirrors on the truck before driving it. So yeah I am worried, not about a single side mirror, about no mirrors at all! Next time you change lanes, put your indicator on, close your eyes and pray, because that's what he was doing. I like the guy and enjoy his videos, but I can still acknowledge, as I'm sure he can, when I see something avoidably dumb and dangerous.

[@Superman-tw3gm]

One thing I can always appreciate about Heavy D, he’s always humble. He knows he’s got the coolest job, most fun toys, and deep pockets…but at the end of the day he is thankful, blessed and humble

[@TimothyFish]

I'm not sure that you understand the concept of "humble." If he were humble, he wouldn't be making highly over produced videos that have him as the hero in every one.

[@Sideapotatoes]

I love both Dave's. Diesel Dave is the real humble one. He constantly just makes a joke of himself and doesn't take anything serious. Even though he, just like heavy D, Is such a badass.

[@user-zw8hb7zm5u]

[@rossrytting6641]

Couple of suggestions... 1) old rubber conveyor belt works great for the snowcat tracks to keep the tracks from damaging anything, wrap two lengths around some pipe the is wide enough to lift with a forklift or place a strap through and move with one of you tow machines. 2) If your lowboy tractor has and air lift for raising the connection, place a block under the trailer up front to keep it out of the dirt... thanks for all you do for everyone!

[@tinamurphy3572]

As a retired trucker, you make me miss it all even more than usual. And yes, it's the best and sometimes most challenging of careers. 😊

🚚💙 Being a truck driver myself, I can't help but appreciate the depth and respect you bring to showcasing this profession.

[@Hard_Films]

What you do is a dream for me. I'm 17 and work at a Job at McDonald's and go to school for welding. My favorite part of the day is getting home from the McDonald's job and getting to work on my many vehicles and projects or doing work with my tractor. I tell you what I'd much rather work outside and getting my hands dirty and learning new things then doing the same thing everyday. Watching what you guys do makes me jealous but also makes me drive harder to get to where y'all are at. Thank you

[@scarywiggles1894]

I live near Trolley Square and and I’m so happy you brought up how beautiful our state is in this video... never gets old.

[@tekvax01]

Dave, I like that you are trying different storytelling and shooting styles. Voicing over most of that entire edit, was really a great idea. It added a real sense of your personality to the piece! Good work to you editors, and producers.

[@guycanada1944]

I deal with a lot of heavy equipment. I feel where you and your crew struggle is communication. You even mention in this video is that communication is key. I feel you guys would would benefit so much if you guys had radios. It makes backing up trucks, guiding equipment etc. so much easier. Just a suggestion to make your operation run a lot safer and smoother.

[@SuperB776]

When i ran lowboy it became habit to dump the bags on the truck AND the trailer before unhooking the neck....sometimes if the trailer was aired up when unloading it would over-air to compensate for the load being off, this really throws the gooseneck off for reattaching...b

[@jasonm949]

You think this is unscripted? Lol

[@Pyle81]

As a retired Heavy Equipment Truck Driver and Operator of Heavy Equipment like this. I can there are simple ways to help line you up when re-attaching the neck of the trailer. There's Magnetic alignment arm that you can slap on the neck that you line up with a painted mark on the deck of the trailer that makes things a lot easier to line up on it. Thats what I used the last 4 yrs before I retired. Because I went from being a Owner Operator and only un hooking maybe 3 or 4 times a week (Sometimes not at all) to working local (Home every night) to unhooking some times a dozen times a day, when hauling asphalt Equipment. And it was ALWAYS right out in the MIDDLE OF THE DAM STREET. With NO one around to help keep traffic off your ass.

[@raygrimes3575]

I loved this episode. I anxiously await the next one like this.

[@jrstransport-XRPXPAY]

I pull an RGN daily. There’s a little tip I use to line up the gooseneck every time perfectly by myself. Make sure that when you disconnect you are perfectly straight with the truck and trailer. Look in your mirror sitting normally in your driving position at where your drive tires lineup on the trailer frame edge when you disconnect. So that when you put it back together, make sure you are straight with the trailer and your drive. Tires are exactly where they were against the trailer edge and you should be lined up perfectly. Hope it helps.

[@TheEberlyFam]

Before my parents got divorced my dad use to be and still is as far as I'm aware a heavy wrecker tow truck driver. For as long as I can remember since I was little he always drove the semi trucks whether it was long haul or the crane trucks for sheet rock companies and now heavy wrecker. He was good at it even got to use the company rotator and there was times he'd bring me on some calls and he taught me how to operate the controls of a wrecker. Communication for those is key especially when he's under there pulling out the driveline on a broke down tractor trailer but it was some cool and fun father son time during that time frame of my life. Thought I'd share cause this video reminded me of him.

[@yvonnehodges5297]

I love the voiceover. It brings so much to the story ur telling!! These days that we do these things are in my opinion one of the best!! Well next to doing things with your Family!!

@heavyDsparks that loading and unloading via the side is widely used here in the Netherlands if the material is suitable for it. Often special ramps are used to make it a bit easier.

Great video. I retired from trucking almost 2 years ago after 44 years and you are right. People don't see big trucks or plain trucks. I loved it too, but on the east coast, Long Island NY, traffic is out of control and people drive like they are being chased by zombies. I am glad I am done.

[@brucewitcpalek5120]

I appreciate this video and let me tell you why. I have a 4100 Manitowoc tower crane that I moved from jobsite to jobsite. 18 semi loads to move it. Then once it’s moved, we have to unload it and put it all back together. Stand it up with 300 foot boom and another 150 foot of working boom. Then start the job and finish the job 6 to 8 weeks later, and do it all over again. And I work all over the United States and Canada and a little bit in Mexico !! Each track for the crane weighs 40,000 pounds apiece. I know exactly what Dave is talking about. Thanks for a very well narrated video. It made me pat myself on the back, because after a while, you just take it for granted !! But it’s far far from granted. It’s a very very dangerous job just hauling it and setting it up not to mention doing the job raising 50 ton over 200 to 300 feet in the air. And just like Dave I would not have it any other way !! 💪🏽💪🏽😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@Thetakeonlife765]

[@rmartin2763]

Look into Trail King Trailers, that's what my guys all use which are fully hydraulic. They special order each one, all get ordered without Honda Hydraulic booster motor because all their tractors have a PTO driven wet kits. Now when they order their Pete's, they can get split fuel tanks where one tank on one side gets its front half separated for fuel and back half is designed for hydraulic fluid for all of their trailers they run. This makes for a really clean look and keeps friends from borrowing trailers.
