That was good painting on that building as you were driving at the beginning of the video

@@pnyramper6864 yes it sure is 💯

[@cmoore7821]

That reefer was getting on my last nerve. Ha. Too effin loud.

[@RunningOTR]

Yeah no kidding I was like wtf is this thing. For sure the most loudest reefer I ever hauled 😂

[@CindyinArizona]

That sure was a tight squeeze in between trucks at the Americold storage in Dallas. Some of those trucks could have been parked closer to the edge to give more room to pass between them. You would think truck drivers would be more considerate of other truckers. That was a nail biter for me! Enjoyable video, thanks for posting. Take care and I hope your wife and girls are doing well.

[@RunningOTR]

Thank you yes it was definitely a bit of a squeeze and no most truckers don’t care about anyone but them self unfortunately especially now a days. They are doing well I’m heading home to see them 😃

[@thetexastrucker7934]

@@CindyinArizona the last time I was there I noticed that driveway full of trucks and trailers so I pulled into the driveway ahead of them and backed up to the guard shack. He reprimanded me for doing that didn't care that the normal driveway was a tight squeeze. He said not to do it again. I had already stopped listening to him at that point bc I only go there a few times a year. I thought he would sympathize with me but he didn't which was annoying. As he was giving me his speech I wanted so bad to turn around and say "why are you still talking?" And there's a curb on the rt side of that driveway and a drop off into grass and dirt or mud on the left that can get you stuck. But yes most of them aren't parked up against the side like they should bc they don't care. Just the way it is.

First. Hehe 🎉 Lot of info you need to enter into the system. But yes safety better Do you play American truck simulator? I like that game

[@RunningOTR]

Yup and I play dayz Standalone too Soviet Union game that’s my favorite

[@user-cutme]

​​@@RunningOTR lot of info you have to enter into the system . You bite your nails. I have the same issue lol

[@cmoore7821]

I had that game once. I liked it. Just to see what would happen. I smacked into another truck going 85 on the freeway. I had to reset the game to get out of it. Haha

[@cutchinspass]

why? loads of room

[@thetexastrucker7934]

Was that ur old black Freightliner from vista that passed you in the beginning? Ive been to that cold atorage in forney several times and the worst part of the trip getting there is just driving up the driveway between trailers just to check in.

[@RunningOTR]

@@thetexastrucker7934 hello no that wasn’t my old truck there is actually 3 black ones just like that and the rest of them are all white and grey some Volvos are black as well and white. Yeah the layout there at the cold storage sucks

[@thetexastrucker7934]

I have never sent in a mac 42. Sometimes the live load asks for the weights. If the load is light i just give them two random numbers but if the load is heavyi use their scale to balance the weights or i get lucky and the weight gauges seem to be calibrated ok. But i only give them numbers if they ask and no mac 42. None of them even ask for weights anymore which i prefer.

[@lewistuberville]

If you ever deliver to Smithfield here in middlesboro ky I will buy you some lunch or something I don't work there I used to I drive local truck driving job

[@RunningOTR]

What that’s awesome man thank you for the offer 🤝 much appreciated it

[@lewistuberville]

Your welcome

[@talltrucker2682]

Where did you deliver to? Walmart DC in Clarksville Arkansas? I’d much rather the rain, today in Ohio the wind was extremely high and I had to deadhead 150 miles 🫣🫣

[@RunningOTR]

Yes sir exactly Clarksville Walmart DC it was an easy drop and hook at 01 and 90 so no complains then I dead headed to Springdale Arkansas to reload the following afternoon. I saw that Ohio had crazy winds my friend was in New York he also drives at prime it was like 44mph winds and gust there and a snow blizzard started one hour later too 🤦🏼‍♂️ I had to deadhead out of Cheyenne Wyoming once with crazy winds like that 40mph gust to fort Morgan Colorado and that was pretty scary trying to not blow over.

[@MohamedbambacamaraMohamedbamba]

Between a tank driver and a fridge driver who is paid the most

[@RunningOTR]

Depends tanker pays more if you haul fuel

[@Aintright890]

Load locks

[@Joshuatl23]

When you first started your lease did you have to up front any money?

[@RunningOTR]

No it’s a walk away lease no money down no credit check. If you want to lease purchase a truck you need to put down 14k but if you lease a truck from prime for each year you compete they subtract 1k from 14k if you want to purchase a truck one day

[@Joshuatl23]

@@RunningOTR so you don't have to pay for load locks or anything like that up front

[@RunningOTR]

@@Joshuatl23 not out of pocket you can charge it to the truck anything you want from food to company store items to chains they just deduct it from your truck when you start running

[@Joshuatl23]

@@RunningOTR oh wow that's awesome

[@RunningOTR]

@@Joshuatl23 yup you can check www.successleasing.com no money down unless you do a lease purchase for a regular lease no money down no credit check just weekly payments from your revenue you make
