Unloading and loading and your honest talking merry Christmas 👍

[@paulhornsby8588]

Hello stranger, great to see you again. I know you have been a owner driver for many years now, with all the problems you have in getting the loads to make a decent living. But do you not miss the guarantee of a guaranteed wage driving as we did for a K company. Have a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year.

[@TheRockgod23]

Hi Paul, yes I do miss a guaranteed wage but on the flip side I prefer working for myself. Merry Xmas.

[@MrAtl777]

Keep up the great work!!! . I really enjoy watching you on your travels …… hope your Xmas was a good one and you have a prosperous 2025 !!! All the very best from USA 🇺🇸

[@ianmulready1067]

Hi pal just enjoying the waffle as normal got to say would enjoy more of the same merry Christmas

[@ianwalker4634]

Keep up the real content, thanks for insight into the load search apps. How about talking through breakdown cover, servicing, tyres etc ? Merry Christmas.

[@TheRockgod23]

Yes, we can have a waffle about about those subjects. I have though previously done a vid about tyres, don't know whether you've seen it ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKumpWieq7-LiNU

[@stevewalters4845]

We can do your maintenance mate at Multevo at Darwen and can film it all

[@TheRockgod23]

I'll bare it in mind for the future if my current maintenance provider (up the top of Willows Lane) let me down. Cheers.

[@stevewalters4845]

@@TheRockgod23 no problem

[@neilhooton1631]

Follow the money as they say Amazon would keep you busy pal good luck!

[@david45hgv39]

Happy Christmas, mate. Hope you're having a well deserved break and a few cheeky beers. Did you ever get those work boxes fitted the dealer promised?

[@TheRockgod23]

No, never got them fitted. Just got everything in boxes in the back. It's still on my 'To Do List' !

[@DavePal-r1v]

No the point of it for us you working and travelling is like us on the journey and being a traveler with you

[@Hunter_M7]

Hello from St Helens

[@amogrows]

do you drive in semi auto (m) all of the time? sounds like you went through all the gears in part of your video. how come you didn't under strap your load? when you use engine brake / retarder, do your brake lights come on? do you have an axle load indicator fitted? can you/do you run your wagon on biodiesel or HVO? have you got the rear camera installed?

[@TheRockgod23]

I drive in both, normally manual mode when the engine is cold. I did strap the crates through the gaps at the bottom (where the forks go) as I don't like the crates sat on the strap below. It looks like I didn't do it as I closed the curtains, closing the curtains was just for the video as I was low on sd card space. Well spotted, I knew someone would pick me up on that ! That though is an issue with filming these things as you can't film everything you do and as a result people think you have/haven't done things ! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

[@craigmcg125]

Hope your doing well I think you and Your videos are Interesting, more from the owner driver side less of the “content creation for view” Would you be willing/able to show more admin/vehicle tasks you have to complete to comply with o license. Not suggesting you show how to get it just showing what you have to go through to keep you and your wagon legal and roadworthy.

[@TheRockgod23]

I'll try and film something related to the admin etc. I've done a vid previously about the O Licence, don't know whether you've seen it ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3ivlGCImLeNfcU

[@BIGV710]

1 reason i dont film my trips is i do a lot of work for MOD and i have to turn my dash cam of onthere properties cant film to it or from them if i do i will lose the jobs with being ex RAF

[@TheRockgod23]

It's the same when I deliver to similar sites, even have to leave my phone at the gatehouse at some sites !

[@stevewalters4845]

[@TheRockgod23]

Should've kept the roundabout !

[@stevewalters4845]

@ definitely 💯

[@markh5433]

Why did you not go via A666 through Bolton rather than A56? Merry Christmas Rockgod… keep the wheels turning pal

[@TheRockgod23]

Hi Mark, it's a lot quicker from the yard going the way I went. Bolton is too much stop/start and normally a nightmare when joining the M60. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

[@MrAtl777]
