KENWORTH W900 | PETERBILT 389 | SALT OUT OF LONGHORN TRUCKING | DUMP TRAILER TRUCKIN'

[@BearNorth0007]

Best thing in the world when driving truck is seeing that kid given the arm pump for the horn put a smile on my face everytime no matter how bad my days goin gotta show my 1 1/2 yr old how it's done lol keep the hammer down pal

[@Wgrippin]

I agree. I’m as excited as the kid when they do it.

[@straightcashhomie45]

Agreed never gets old

[@mikevanelswyk108]

That second load you dumped is right across where I pick up every once in awhile in Hudson

[@MrShade19686]

Saying hi to their kid on your channel is just as good as a kid on the side off the road doing the arm pump great videos wes be safe out there

[@Wgrippin]

I agree with this 100%. I’m glad you said that. It’s really the same feeling to me. Both makes them happy.

[@illphill5588]

I think it’s pretty cool you and randy follow each other to the same places sometimes makes the ride better 💯👌🏽

[@Wgrippin]

Thanks for watching!

[@ryankovaly3927]

Great lookin truck Wes, glad work is steady for u guys. When drivers come in at work they are always complaining about the lack of work. I think it’s got a lot to do with your motto “Let’s get back to work !!”

[@Wgrippin]

Work has been steady. My thing is I’ll take a short day or week and not complain because the next week might be really big. Take the breaks when they come and the money when that comes.

[@anthonyc993]

I see longhorn guys everyday in lansing,NY hauling salt from Cargill. They have some beautiful trucks for such a big fleet. Would love to drive for them, but they are a little to far for a daily commute.

[@Wgrippin]

Nice bunch of guys too. I think that’s where they get their salt. I’m not sure though. Just assuming

[@kellykonoske91]

Its about building a community Wes, and I think your going in the right direction. Enjoy the videos alot! Todd Konoske the retired trucker ( Elmira, Or. )

[@Wgrippin]

Yes 100%. Community is something that seems to be going downhill in this career lately. Hopefully we can make it a little better.

Thanks a lot driver. Glad you found the channel! C15 is a great motor. Workhorse for sure.

[@kustom4935]

Very interesting video. I especially loved watching the usage of the “Jake Brake”. Could you do a video about how it works, when you use it, the benefits, etc? Also would love to learn more about your rig.

[@Wgrippin]

Sure, at some point i could throw in a part about the engine brakes.

[@peteanderson970]

I just found your channel and am catching up. As a CNY'er who went to college in Plattsburgh and is now living in NC, I really enjoy seeing all the scenery and familiar sights from your travels. I fished several bass tournaments on the section of the Mohawk/canal that you paralleled on the "Truway" in this video. You knew you had a fast boat if you were keeping up with traffic. #HammerDown #BackToWork #HeyBudddeeeeee

For what it’s worth you put another smile on a kids face with this video.....I’m 29.....still a kid at heart though 🤣 something about turbos whistlin and jakes that just make me feel like a fat kid at a donut convention. Anyways, serious question, think you can comment on how y’all haul that heavy? I know it varies state to state, I’m in NC. The legal wording always screws with me. Are you getting single permits? NY have like a seasonal allowance? Or just running old skool? 🤣

Do you haul out of Callanan Inds. I ran equipment back in 88 there and as a operating engineer you had to work in the plant too. Worked for Gorman Bros too, the one place I worked where I wish I never quit.

[@Wgrippin]

The “how to dump” abs the “dump trailer should be a tanker” were Callanan loads. I used to pull a liquid asphalt trailer for a different company and we’d haul liquid for Gorman out if the port of Rensselaer.
