The fact that you drive for swift and are bold enough to share your experience with the company and your driving is amazing and you have my full Salute and honor! I started off with swift and loved it for a short while and I moved up in life! Never forget where you come from though! Swift isn’t a bad company it’s the trainers that make the new drivers look bad! That’s why they have a bad rep! Other than bro keep pushing! I had a blue swift 2020 frieghtshaker!

Watching this as I get live loaded. I know this video is like 8 months old and you've probably learned by now but you don't use PC to go across the yard like you did. You can idle over there without starting your clock. As long as it's under 5 mph I usually leave it in 4th gear and that goes 4 mph at idle👍🏽but as soon as you hit 5 it will automatically put you in drive
@mrlevhil

Jewels.......Whenever you're lowering the trailer lower it a little lower then your 5th wheel. Next get back in truck and lower your air bags so you can slide under trailer. Once under trailer before locking into kingpin hit your button to lift air bags back up, then roll backwards to lock onto kingpin. When you get out of truck to lift landing gear it will be easy to crank up because all the weight from load has been lifted off the landing gear. Its quicker and easier then what it sounds like. Great vid.

Been thinking about learning to drive and this may just have inspired me to go for it.. i hate trying new big things because the learning part of it until youre comfortable is annoying and awkward but this kind of brings to light that anyone just starting out is gonna be like that. I would be exactly like this.. wondering if i could drive my car to my truck to drop my stuff off.. i would end up not doing it and not asking if i could do it for a little while and its just stuff like that man.. we’re all just normal ppl tryna get a bag. Everyones gotta learn somehow! Awesome video!!

Noticed a few mistakes. Don’t PC to go across the yard. You must be on duty or creep off duty.. 2. Don’t stay in sleeper on your logs when you’re on home time or just in general. Log yourself in sleeper berth ONLY WHEN YOU’RE IN SLEEPER! 3. The LANDING GEAR.. when you’re dropping a trailer, do not put the lever back into its spot! Let it hang freely. Why? Because when someone else goes to pickup the trailer, if may not be able to move because of all the weight. 4. Just be careful out there and be safe.

About the landing gear lever- I drive Euro trucks and they all have adjustable air suspension. So if the lever wasn't able to move during hitching up, I just lift the unit suspension a bit and the lever is freed. Is this not the case for US trucks?

Hey, just found your video by chance. Very good. Just a word of advice from a fellow truck driver (from Australia), always do your pre-trip checks before you move your truck. One reason being that once you’ve had the engine on a little while you won’t get an accurate oil level reading. Also, you won’t know if there’s any defects or damage or debris under the tyres that could cause damage. Always check before you move. Good luck!

@David Rivera Jr yeah man it's been great. I got multiple offers, but mostly, they were OTR or Team drive, which I'm not interested in. I decided to go with Pepsi, and it's been a blessing. I'm getting paid 22.05 an hour and been doing between 10-12 hours a day. Sunday is always off, and it pays weekly. My take-home check after taxes and health insurance was $1050 (Gross income is $1450ish a week). My income has more than doubled since a left retail, which is something I couldn't even think possible to get done in a short amount of time.

If your thinking about obtaining a CDL but are unsure. Come to the upper mid-west during fall harvest. You will have a chance to drive every year, make and model ever made. By the way all you need is a class D drivers license. It would be best to have a bit of experience. Your will drive alongside lifters a foot a apart and driving on minimum maintenance roads etc. Just a thought if your thinking about it. The area i'm talking is ND. MN. border and harvest lasts close to a month. You can make $3-4k driving 12 hour shifts. You get a day off when if happens to rain. It's a blast been doing it since i was 14 over 40 years ago.

Nice to see back bro. Would you please do a video about how to use quolcomm. Particularly in the training phase with a mentor, how to calculate time you drove as a student. Some mentors will make you steering holder, if you don't know your quolcomm and how manage your driving time, 10 hour break and etc.

company’s should just have open pick up and deliveries so anyone who has a certified cdl license can fulfill those orders. Truck drivers would have the option to spend a extra couple days at home if they choose then just pick up orders when they are ready to get back to work

Man thanks for putting us in your shoes for a day with this awesome video! Swift seems like a pretty good starter company with nice trucks.A few years ago, I went to terrible CDL SchooI and drove for a garbage company called PAM Transport. I quit right before I got done with their extremely short 2 weeks of training and haven't driven since. Lately though, I've really been thinking about trying again with a different company. How was Swift's CDL School? Would you recommend Swift

it was okay they Didn’t really teach much just enough for you to obtain your cdl kind of teaching lol, super expensive too I heard it went up to 8k$ wayy too over price if you ask me but you should definitely do try it out again tho! but maybe somewhere cheaper lol unless you already have your cdl ? then yea swift is not as bad to start

I've been eyeballing trucking and I think I'd like to make the jump from call center work. It pays better, plus I love every minute I spend on the road, I kind of wish my daily commute was longer. What would be your top tip(s) for breaking in to the world of trucking? (Canada) Great video, it's not often I watch hour and a half vlogs all the way through. Correction, I NEVER watch hour and a half vlogs all the way through.

1st. Get a grant for your CDL usually have it done by ur state/provenance pay for your schooling. 2.Then hop on to a starter company such as swift. 3. Stay there for a year then start branching out aka submitting ur resume to other companies. 5. After your done with that, you can start making 6 figures if you don’t get urself in any unnecessary bills. And make sure 6. MAKE SURE YOU BUILD UR CREDIT! You will find out later on. Best of luck
