Alex, I am a lifelong resident here in Flint, MI. I am also a trucker! Flint isn't so bad! I wish I had been home to meet you, but I'm presently OTR right now, too. Our city has tried very hard to overcome the stigma that we have been under...

[@JSRRADIO]

I lived in woodhaven

[@mj_2332]

Vehicle City! My Dad grew up near Ballenger Park. He was OTR for 30+ years for Domino's and just passed away 2 weeks ago. This video hit me in the feels.

[@brownbagz]

@mj_2332 Me too! Condolences 🙏🏽 to you and your family! It's some beautiful people here and some great things going on. I'm 58, and my maternal and paternal family still live here. My grandfather, Arthur Roper, Sr., owned the Tropicana Bar on Industrial Street. I have a home here, and Flint is what made me!

[@mj_2332]

That's awesome. Drive safe!

Hello ! I am French (from France) and I discovered your KZbin channel a few days ago. I find it interesting to see an American truck driver share with us the daily life of his work in the USA. That's a change from French truck drivers who do this job in Canada. It's interesting to see the American vision of the profession. I'm not a truck driver myself, but I'm passionate about trucks and I find American trucks magnificent. 👍

Alex, don't you have a Yard Move selection on your ELD? It allows you to move around in a on duty not driving mode. If you want to know more about it just ask

Finally a new video from Alex! Are you getting burnt out on KZbin or in trucking? Seems like you’ve stopped posting as frequently. I was getting burnt out after 4 years otr/regional. I just started with a flatbed company going through training now and it’s renewed my love for being behind the wheel. Stay safe driver!

[@michaelkeogh8454]

Try cargo vans / sprinter van expediting when they give you a load that is to be delivered direct regardless of distance or time

[@bigdella6double6]

One of the reasons most trucks still smaller is because those days had the great old Cabover which was shorter😊 then the conventional trains

[@bluemamba4239]

From watching your videos to actually driving now is crazy lol.

[@chris818529]

That pick up in ohio. Was that at whirlpool in Clyde? That blue thing intro front of you was the conveyor that feeds the warehouse. That bridge you crossed in ohio was going over the Maumee river in Toledo.

[@stevennovakovich2525]

My old 'YRC' terminal was in Bolingbrook, IL. Drove for them for a couple of years. Regional LTL, relay (doubles and long-box trailers)....just terminal-to-terminal. Very easy, no sleeping in the truck, paid-for and decent hotels. Went from Bolingbrook, IL to Copley, OH (near Akron) almost nightly. Also used to drive to St. Louis, Nashville, St. Paul, Columbus, etc. I left before 'YRC' (then called 'Yellow') went bankrupt and dissolved into nothingness. Developed blood clots in my right leg and had to quit driving, which was fine with me. One of the things that sucked about 'YRC' was having to haunt the rail yards to get my own trailers, especially on the weekends. Pain in the @$$.

[@CDLClassA]

I’ve never driven a KW. How do they ride in comparison to the freighter Cascadia?

Make sure you go and check out a Tropics game while in Flint.

[@williamsiniff9004]

When did you get the tattoo looks awesome

[@scottthomas118]

The "Ohio River" belongs to Kentucky (how crazy!) and it separates Ohio from Kentucky.

[@JonathanSparks-ht4vq]

Being that Kentucky was settled before Ohio. Kentucky was actually a county in Virginia until they broke off to form their own state

[@7B7E7N7]

To answer your question older trucks at that period were cabover engine so they could turn super easily and were shorter.

[@JonathanSparks-ht4vq]

Cabover

No one else has noticed but it is a temporary tattoo, look at the broken and rubbed off sections.

[@danielwerner5882]

That's not a fake tattoo. He probably got it recently and the parts look more faded and rubbed off are where the scabbing has come off amd the darker spots are where the scab is still at. Anyone's that has tattoos knows this fun process as it sucks.
