[@saltydog3714]

Justin, you have the necessary experience needed to do YOUR job and do it well. Always learn from your mistakes. Truck number 120 sure is a beauty but in reality, they all are! I laughed my butt off when you covered your face before showing the anteater number 124. That was hilarious. In four decades of trucking, I connected with 3 deer but avoided countless others. Count your blessings as your future is bright. Doug Baird.

Im so old that i remember when reefer unit controls were knobs & a toggle switch to crank it

[@jackjackson7461]

Sounds like you are about the same age as I am because that's the way they where when I drove. I can remember my Dad telling me when he was driving there reefers where bunker blowers filled with ice 🧊 and he would get a block of ice in the passenger side floor and kick open the floor vent and how the bunks where so small you would have to sleep on your side. And I sit and listen today at some drivers bitch about how bad their trucks are and I just laughed and walked away 😅

Got to ignore the haters, trucking seems to have an above average number of them. I drove transport for a local oil company here in PA, they ran 4 transports and about 8 or 9 delivery trucks. There were times when the owner would climb in a transport to help out if a guy was off or a gas station would run out. I had tremendous respect for that man every time he climbed in a truck and ran with us and I'm sure your drivers feel the same.

[@flintcreektransport]

Ha yeah its all good ... i try to always stay positive !!

[@redmesa2975]

1:53 that trailer needs a washout ! Many shippers want you to have the reefer running at the set point, when you bump the dock. Looks like a laid back shipper. We like those ! That new truck looks like the last company I worked for. Western Distributing Transportation. 11:04 Nice operation you have.

[@randymcharg2088]

When you report it to insurance make sure you tell them the deer hit you

[@panzerwolf494]

Years ago when I worked for McDonald's we got our supplies in out of St. Johns, MI. Truck was late one day (normally there at 5 am). Driver had hit a deer a few miles out of St. Johns. The deer tried to jump between the cab and reefer, the reefer hit it and it fell into the wheels, gut slung up into the bottom of the trailer, snagged the landing gear, banged off the roller rack storage box, then thrown off the trailer wheel into the liftgate on the rear of the trailer. Once we unloaded our stuff I had to hose down the truck because there was blood blown all over one side of the trailer from the reefer all the way back and bits of deer hung up underneath the trailer anywhere it could find a spot to rip a chunk off. The only damage seemed to be the reefer unit which had its shell crushed in, but still ran ok, at least enough to finish the run to other stores after ours.

[@flintcreektransport]

Wow ! I’m sure it didn’t smell that great iether !!!

You always get the deer with the new equipment. My boss put a new bumper on my Pete, had it for a day and a half when I hit a deer, 60mph, loaded at 107,000lbs. Bent the bumper to the the tire, bent the rock guard and rolled the front fender a bit. Pulled the bumper out with the forklift and could hardly tell. A couple months later hit another deer. EXACT. SAME. DAMAGE. And dented the fuel tank.

[@badgerpa9]

Poor 124 is it called Rudolph? Years ago I got a new van for the ex and kids and within a month she hit 2 deer at once, filled the freezer and messed up the front and side. Got it back and it must have been the siblings or something within a month she hit 2 again one on the front and one the other side the drivers side this time. Very nice fleet of trucks, the small dump trucks sure are handy when the big ones do not fit. Stay safe.

Yup our T800's came with stock visors and I changed them to drop visor and I used silicone with washer and bolts. Now we gonna paint the trucks and that will be painted also... *Also not sure but can you go over engines and if any are tuned/turned up*. Reason our heavy haul is isx 525 deleted and turned to 625hp/2050tq and running 7" straight pipes... you can hear me miles away.

The deer damage on that brand new Pete made me cry a a little. Why is it never the oldest truck?? Years ago one of my drivers ran over a moose that was laying in the road dead.... it had just been hit and killed by a car ( should have seen the car !). Truck was only a year old, and boy did it make a mess of the fuel tank, side boxes, etc.

[@flintcreektransport]

Wow ... yes those moose and elk are huge and do major damage!!

[@1982MCI]

@@sheilasembly-crum8447 it’s like when your used to driving new BMW’s and Porsche cars and then dad takes it away for awhile and sticks you in a 1963 VW Bug. There’s nothing “wrong” with it per say, it runs good and gets you point a to point b and back to point a again each day but it’s not something your gonna call your friends about and brag about “look what I’m driving today” type of thing. Pete’s and Kenworth trucks to many drivers are the king of the road. Has been that way for decades. But when some of these new trucks came out, they were more aerodynamic, more fuel efficient, more comfortable, easier to drive, hell, they even put automatics in them so bois that were intimidated by a big stick could get one and stand up and finally say in his high pitch tone “I’m a trucker” so there’s nothing that happened with 124, it’s just a man thing I guess you could say, Pete and KW carry all the testosterone of the trucking world and all the others drive the Volvo’s and other trucks on the market, they are ok trucks, they move the freight but they just don’t get it there as fast or have that old time beastly truck look and feel to it and they don’t capture the respect that the Pete’s and KW’s do but they do give the driver a comfy ride getting there. Hope this helps you understand a bit better Sheila , sorry for the long answer tho
