I Have To Make A Trucking Delivery Here!? Where Am I?

Flat Bedders trucks don't even have reverse!

Uhm yes they do?

Alot of my coworkers left for toyota battery plant in liberty pretty cool to see in here

[@jake-q7x2m]

Good stuff Dave!

[@Gunthrek]

I know this is my entitlement speaking right now, but I'd totally go over the road if I could get one of those sweet trucks with an RV style camper in the back. I lived in my travel trailer for a couple of years, and we're moving back into it pretty soon, but if I could have that kind of home away from home, I think both me and my wife would team up to drive.

[@Prismapiet]

Great video! Your ability to handle tight turns and unexpected challenges on the road is really impressive. Thanks for giving us a glimpse into the life of a truck driver. Keep up the awesome work!

[@normanshorey3081]

This was a fun video Dave.

[@watermelonbleach]

I've learned to always have a few tools ready in my vehicles just for any problems I might be able to fix like your air hose problem. Thanks for the video Dave!

[@erthwermmusic]

There's something about your videos that just checks off a box for me. I love turning your videos on at work at my lil cubicle. My truckin' buddy just doing his thing lol. Cya out on the road some day, Dave!

[@ramrod6279]

Well Dave some flat bed drivers do back up to docks. Some things they haul have to be driven onto their trailers. They're not always loaded from the side.

[@ladyb1777]

He’s like Ike. Thinks us flatbedders don’t back. We could back circles around his door swinging ass 🤭 I’d love to hook him up to my doubles and watch him back those up to his docks 😉 good video as always tho Dave 😘

Thank you for putting in the effort that you always do for these videos dave. It doesn't go unnoticed and we all appreciate you very much. Thank you for supplying us with such incredible entertainment over the years. I hope you had a great American Thanksgiving. Keep up all the awesome content!

[@sawmaster95]

As someone that drives flatbed for the Army, you're right for the most part lmao. The only time WE have to back to a dock is if we have rolling stock! 😂😂

Amazing work dave, Love watching your videos as it shows how you all in America operate your lorries compared to us in the uk, keep up the awesome work.

[@douglasmijangos3327]

😂 “most people wouldn’t’ve stopped there” ….”most people” we see in Dave’s videos give him space and let him through 😂

[@ilovechieftains]

Lol that last lady. Surprised they are on pallets, like what else would they be on to go in a trailer? Asks if you have a pallet jack, like as if you have a secretive pallet jack storage spot in the cab... But she sounded funny and nice at the end of the day. Great vid Dave!

[@RidingWithDave]

She was definitely nice. After she escorted me back to the entrance she apologized for not offering me a water. I said that's okay I have water in here lol.

[@happinessiskey2858]

Haha, that cracks me up. I love people that are like that. You don't know what's going and neither do they, but you both know you have to get the job done and at the same time they're straight up with you on how they're feeling - even if it's not great. Typical contract work 😂

[@Uniquelyyours1]

I loved your flat bedders rant, Dave, it made my day. Stay safe.

Hi, Dave 👋👋Loved your vlog 👏👏Take care of yourself 😊

Thank you for trucking, Dave. Safe travels.

[@rogerd8121]

Well Dave when I was doing flat beds we still had to pull up and back up to be straight 😂

[@doubledd4950]

I’ve got to say, who ever raised you did an awesome job!! You have just enough anxiety to make you a decent, considerate person. It’s so rare these days. And totally agree, get the fuck up early and don’t be late! ❤ your channel!

[@jamesgrandstaff2612]

As I was leaving work today, I saw a CFI truck and trailer in our parking lot. I was geeking out thinking OMG this could be a friend of Dave!

[@PringlesCan-y7m]

I always love pounding out another one of ol'Dave's videos with all the dudes on the ranch.

[@michaelkeogh8454]

Dave, your channel is inspiration for me to start a channel for the cargo van expediting I do. It's hard to come up with a video formula that is entertaining.

[@johnmilligan2964]

I delivered to a solar farm that was expanding in Searcy,AR the escort led down a track that was little more than ruts in the mud. They unloaded me off a temporary dock that could be moved. I slung mud on top of my tanks underneath the cab. I went from there to a truck wash and there was still mud under the truck six months later.

[@dougmitchell5435]

I can remember going to dumb places and having to do weird things to get in/out. Narrowturn at a place in Arkansas and they said they had trucks/trailers in there; what they means was pickups with goosenecks about 30 feet shorter than I was. A place in PA where I had to take a road sign out of the dirt and then put it back when I got done. A place in Wisc. that had JUST had their lot redone and it was not cured. The only door for the stuff I was carrying was on the far side of that lot and I tore the hell out of the seams between the slabs. It happens. You make the best of it, and carry on, which is what it seems you did here.

[@spccanadanovascotiahalifax]

Love the vlogs Dave!

[@chrisdesjardins2664]

Dave is the repair specialist 😂😂😂

[@richardstreet3243]

🎉 dude flatbedders back up as much or more than anybody else

[@bzs187]

That's how a lot of truck is unloaded in Europe, especially smaller companies. Though it's a curtainside trailer, which basically a flatbed if you look it that way.

[@robmcvaigh796]

Thanks Dave! Stay safe bro

[@rick73020]

I’m a flat bedder that used to drive a dollar store account with dry van. Now it feels like all that backing I used to do went to waste. lol. We still have to back at some places, like into warehouse loading doors and such so they can crane steel coils or rebar onto the trailer. But most of the backing we do now is just to get parked for the night at a truck stop.

[@dondavi5798]

Knew exactly where you were in Raleigh. Be very thankful you didn't have to go any further north on Capital Blvd (US1) or worse they have you try to go out via Wake Forest road.

[@alikay2860]

Petition to bring back turn cam! Gotta be a way to attach the GoPro.

[@The_One_Over_There]

Would be neat. But, what if the company doesn't want Dave to stick things like GoPro holders on their truck?

[@petergilbert144]

I used to work with new home construction putting up new neighborhoods or just a house. Lot of interesting trucks and characters.

[@mikeswink1031]

Not just you Dave ! I would get to work 30 minutes early , get a coffee and most of most of my crew , we worked in a welding shop , would sit and we would sit and just talk till work time . No worries about snow , etc on getting to work on time .

Great content. I started putting your channel on while I'm in traffic from New york to ct to listen, It's nice company lol.

[@frankenstein8264]

25:50 you should see how European trucks would react in those bumps LOL

[@maxi5778]

They wouldn't really react differently

[@RidingWithDave]

I do hear those cabovers are a little bumpier. At least the older ones we used to have here were.

[@frankenstein8264]

@RidingWithDave I don't know about American trucks but Europeans has 3 different sets of suspension (axel-cab-chair) that makes them bumpier in a bumpy gravel road but very comfy and smooth cruising down the highway

I have had that happen when I had the Volvo where my airlines would come off the trailer when making a right turn to back up I know the feeling Dave

[@BerraLJ]

Construction sites can be a pain or just lovely, but way often very tight and dirty and loud :)

[@happinessiskey2858]

Happy late Thanksgiving, Dave! Hope you've enjoyed your off time this weekend and had a good smoke and drink. Do you have enough videos queued up to keep posting throughout your upcoming break? Don't forget about the alien video! Thanks for the videos as always man. :)

What's up Dave 👋

[@douglasmijangos3327]

This video reminds me of the time I hauled Concrete for a bit .. 90 percent of the deliveries were at sites like these .. if not worse sites.. shit was always so sketchy 🤦🏻‍♂️ the worse ones was when people were walking all over the place .. horrible 😂

[@RidingWithDave]

Yeah this one was pretty well organized and easy. I imagine some construction sites are a nightmare.

[@MicroAppleStudios]

I ran flatbed for years. One things always the same of those big jobsites. You're either worshipped for bringing something they really needed, or your hated for bringing the unneeded stuff lol.

[@SomethingEpic777]

Hey Dave! Love the channel; Thanks for the vids! Im curious, how often do you load/unload the trailer? Seems like either lumpers or warehouse personnel do the loading/unloading.

[@RidingWithDave]

Pretty much never. Haven't unloaded here at Online. At CFI, I think two times I assisted in unloading in a year and a half span.

[@SomethingEpic777]

Nice. I'll see if I can get hired on by Online or CFI then! Trying to (re-)start my trucking career on the right foot; Spent a week with a company that ended up having me hand-unload nearly 30k-lbs (no pallets, no dollies, only crappy "rollers"). Needless to say, I realized right-quick that _if_ im going to unload the trailer, i'll only do it if im able to get a tanker-job.
