When I started driving big trucks, my Dad always told me, "Don't think about it as backing up Son,, Learn to drive it both directions!" So true, Great job!

[@High_strung]

Backing up is my favorite part of it I’ve been complemented on how Well i do by older drivers and that makes my day. Idk how or why but i just understand how it moves

[@MarkSmith-dh5dh]

Hmm! Yes I pulled a Reefer too. I've backed into some tight spots also in my day. What I liked about my shaker, the stacks were in the back of sleeper! Amazing video though driver! Be safe #keepontruckin 🙏🇺🇸👍

Bro I swear every time I watch one of your videos, it just fuels my soul to hurry up and finish my training and one day become a full time owner operator and maybe even start my own small A1 quality trucking company.

[@erict9544]

Good job checking over everything during your stop at Kwik Trip. Keep up the good work.

[@randyhopkins9114]

Lil' Bubba, you sure got a perdy truck 🚛 there, but you ought to put a bigger sleeper on it! Anyway my name is Randy Hopkins, and I used to drive them old things! Started out with a brand spanking new '74 Peterbilt 359, 300 in. wheelbase w/a 120 in. custom walkthrough sleeper! It came with a 3406-B Cat, w/600 hp, and a Super-10 transmission! Nothing fancy like what you got, but it would get me up the hills without dropping a gear! My dad helped me buy it, and even though it was designed for showing with all the bells, and whistles, being a carpenter he decided one day to put a full solid oak floor in it, which a lot of people raved about, plus it got a lot of awards at several of the shows I attended, plus some extras like a year free fuel, and oil, some free meals, and a little extra cash 🏧, which helped out a lot! Anyway they used to call me "The Blue Diamond", or at least that's the handle I used to go by back in the '70's, '80's, and '90's! Anyhoo, I'm from Ft. Worth, Texas (Cowtown), not Funkytown like some people think, but you have yourself a good one, and keep it between the lines, and don't go collecting no road tickets!...😂 At least not like I used to! They ain't no good at truckstops anyway!...😂👍

[@diesel-pusher24]

Watching my dad when i was able to go with him on trips it was a learning experience. He taught me alot. I wish he wasn’t hauling tanker otherwise I could go with him. I learned alot. Its not too bad on American Truck Sim.

Nice truck. One time I ran to pick up my first load of the day. I was going to swap trucks and haul a 57”. Getting there the tractor was not, it was 40 minutes away. So not to miss the unload I grabbed the trailer and left. When I docked the driver next to me got out and looked. My bumper was dead even to his steer tires of a England. See I had a cabover. Yes I told him a little long.

[@GMAN_DA_TRUCKA]

For starters I definitely gotta give you credit and commend you for driving a stretched frame doing local deliveries. It would be a lot more hassle then it’s worth to me.. But you handle it well.. If there’s one piece of advice I would give; is to watch on your over steer.. Let the trailer do it’s thing first before you start turning so much.. Remember it takes about 4 ft. before you actually see the move that your trying to make

Just curious, does the reefer require DEF as well I assume? Do you separate the fuel tracking for reefer (off road) or is that all in the past? More video discussion on that would be great. What MPG do you get with that wheelbase? 53' trailer? Love the videos!

[@olemansailor6519]

Trying to back and spot a long Wheelbase tractor like yours takes some getting used too. In my Alabama math I figure that for every 12 inches of wheelbase on your tractor it's like adding 4 feet to your trailer.
