Remember the adage...you go down the hill the same way you go up. Slow and easy. I pulled the same when Fed Ex Ground was ROADWAY PACKAGE SYSTEMS. I did my test in a blinding downpour in Scramento....the next night I was pulling over Donner on my way to Chicago. Been operating since I was a kid, with my dad's 10 wheelers. But, I'd only hooked up and took a drive one time....the only experience I had. I sure made some good ducats for a couple of years! Once you really get the feel, you'll be white knuckled most of the time. Tap er Light, and maintain your speed. You'll be fine. Good Luck!

ONE MORE THING!! Although the long hauls are in short supply...keep in mind this. Get to know your McNally's and study the hell out of your mileage. If you can't go eastbound on 80 from Sac. Head down 99 and jump on I-40. From Sacramento to Chicago the difference in miles is 110...that's only 2.5 hrs. There are always ways around...75% of the time. Make sure you can grab a light gear for your pup...you'll thank me later!

Been driving a long time, and I have to give you props for doing one simple thing most people skip. Sticking your head in there, and visually looking to make sure the fifth wheel hooked is never with skipping. Watched a guy drop one in our yard this morning.

@@ShelbyHBTM Many years ago I was pulling a flatbed trailer, with 46,000+lbs of drywall on the deck, that completely unhooked doing 70mph while I was headed I-68W in West Virginia. This happened right around the 17 mile marker early in the morning. I had hooked to a preloaded trailer a couple of days before in PA and went home for the weekend. I dropped the trailer and took the truck home to clean inside and wash it. With the weekend over, I re-hooked and made three ninety degree turns and traveled about 8 miles total before I felt a little 'bump' just after coming back out of overdrive. I looked back in my mirror(s) and sparks were flying everywhere! Another driver, I had recently passed, was screaming on the CB that my trailer had just came unhooked! That driver was about as nervous as I was! I was so dumbfounded by what I was seeing that I let the truck slow to a point where the trailer was now sliding towards me! Talk about a fireworks display! Thank God there wasn't traffic beside of me, along with the fact of having a big enough engine to be able to roll back into the fuel and pull away from the trailer without the possibly of missing a gear due to the excitement level! The trailer slid for a good distance, uphill, before coming to a sizzling and asphalt boiling stop. One of the dolly legs was on the verge of rolling completely under the trailer but the trailer was still resting on both legs, nevertheless! Had it slid much further, that leg would have collapsed and there would have been a load of drywall scattered everywhere! I didn't have a single broken sheet upon delivery! For a long period of time afterwards there were gouge marks from the trailer dolly pads up the hill. The wrecker service came out with a tow truck and a bob tail tractor to see what needed to be done. Summers Towing was a great help! summerstowing.com We were going to re-hook the trailer onto my tractor but the fifth wheel wouldn't unlock. They took the trailer to their shop and I went to New Stanton, PA Kenworth to have the fifth wheel checked. It turned out the fifth wheel was worn out and needed rebuilt! The safety latch was even wedged from where the trailer had came unhooked. A few people have said that it was my fault because I either high coupled or that I didn't get completely latched but it was the worn out fifth wheel that caused the unhook. The mechanic at the Kenworth shop said that it was in no way my fault, he showed me the fifth wheel after he had removed it and had flipped it over. I had driven a tractor pulling trailers for at least seven years at that point and a total of driving commercially for about twelve! So, I wasn't a rookie, nor was I a complacent driver. I had just started working for the owner of the truck the day before I picked up the load. It had been his personal tractor, until he bought his new one. The phone call to him that early morning was a very pleasant experience, considering what had just taken place. I broke the bad news to him first and followed up with the BLESSING that no one was hurt and there wasn't a major accident or damage! He wasn't upset or anything! I commend you for the way you coupled to the trailer! You did not slam into it like a lot of drivers do. Backing up and slamming the king pin is what causes premature wear on fifth wheels and failures such as mine! I have always hooked in the same fashion as you and the individual that you replied to, Steve N. I always have crawled under the trailer to visually check if the fifth wheel was locked and I've always carried a flashlight, even during the day, to shine back onto the lock! Always gave the trailer a tug / pull test, just to be sure. By the way, my first trailer experience was a petroleum tanker in the beginning of winter all the while learning how to back up, too! Keep the shiny side up and the rubber side down! Safe travels and may it be an enjoyable journey!

I’ve often wanted to drive a truck but you’re doing it with common sense and wisdom. You’re making it look simple and doing it nothing like I thought it would have to be done. I never thought someone could handle those dollies like you did. I’m definitely impressed! When I’m around trucks I drive the forklifts so it’s amazing how many cheat by writing arrows and up down by the crank. That solves the problem of knowing which way to turn it. Keep smiling!!😁🙂😊

I spent 41 years driving tractor trailers for UPS. Pulled A LOT of doubles. This is a good video, I like how you check your pin, make sure the jaws are locked. Our trailers were a bit different in that there is a short air line attached to the back of the trailer and that goes to the dolly, then lines on the dolly to the back trailer. I started out spotting my dolly with the tractor as youre doing here. Eventually I got to where I would grab the front trailer, go get the dolly and hook it, then back that all up to the back trailer. Saves some wear on your back. I ran L.A. to Dallas twice a week and got a ton of crap on the cb about the doubles. But there are a lot of guys out there that have never pulled them and cant hook them up. The one thing about UPS is we did a ton of backing when working local and our yards are always undersized and really tight. So it didnt take long to really get your backing down. Keep the videos coming.

Well done young lady. I started driving truck in 1964 and it's great to see a young person who's doing it right. You're pulling one of my least favourite rigs, wiggle wagons. I used to pull A trains from Calgary to Cochrane Alberta and there's a steep hill just before you hit the town limits. It can get a bit exciting in the winter time Stay safe and keep on truckin.

3:37 I know you said that you released the brakes on the dolly. But PLEASE do not jerk your body like that. When you do that, you put unneeded strain on your lower back. Lift up slowly then use your entire body to pull the dolly. It’s not a race and never should be. Due to my safe practices over the years, at 41 I am very flexible and crawl in attics and such. During my time building submarines, I worked with a bunch of 20 year olds who were flabbergasted by the fact I could maneuver my body.

Why would I want to try anything harder then what I currently do? Lol Hauling liquid is good money, aerodynamic trailers I don’t wait too load or unload. And I can get into tighter spots at truck stops. Only down side is freezing my ass off in the winter and trailers valves freezing since I’m in Canada. Haha

Very interesting to watch. I’m in awe to see all that manual labour. It seems so tedious too. But if it works it works I guess ;-). We also have b-doubles and similar configurations in our tiny country (the Netherlands), but I’m so happy to see we have it a lot easier :-). Lookup the term “LZV” or ecocombi for video’s in case you’re interested. Anyway. Keep posting your videos. Kudos to your cameraman as well.
