If your thinking of coming to Prime Inc or want to get your CDL license. I honestly believe Prime is a solid company to start your trucking journey. Make sure when you fill out the online application @ www.primeinc.com put my driver code STREXA on page 2 of the application when it ask who referred you. Thanks for watching my video 🙂🤙💯

I was looking at a dash cam for my truck (not an 18-wheeler, just a RAM 1500), and the one I decided on was the BlackVue DR970X-2CH, where the front camera is 4K and the rear camera is 1080P HD. You can just get the 1 CH front camera for your Freightliner, or get the 2CH with the interior camera. You can also get the battery to attach to it (battery charges while driving, engages for parking mode when truck is off), with the LTE adapter for constant data connection (you have the 5G Modem/Router so you would be fine). There is a small monthly charge to automatically store your footage to the cloud.

I was so glad to see this video because it was your maiden voyage and your new truck. I was just very disappointed to see you good scratched up by a driver who is not paying attention. Just because it’s an empty space to your right at one moment, does not mean you should stop looking in that direction in case there’s another vehicle that pulled in. I was saying to you a video when you talked about your CB radio. You said exactly what I was thinking about an auxiliary speaker. Be safe out there and enjoy your new truck.

I had a seatbelt replacement on my 2019 thanks to my puppy when he was younger. I have that same squeaking sound, it’s coming from the seatbelt track at the top there’s a little silver roller I think that’s where it’s coming from; I’ve noticed mine does it when I’m sitting more forward rather than my back against the drivers seat. At the 7 min 45 min mark looking at your seatbelt, that yellow clip thing at the top is where that roller thing is.
