A little tip for your husband, he can use a dry erase marker to write important numbers or info on the windshield or driver side window so he doesn’t have to fish for the note pad. I did it

[@robc2199]

@@marqueswilsonn I did that for years!!..best notepad out there…

[@redwolf6724]

That’s how I did it running solo, the computer wouldn’t work while driving so I’d write all the directions on my wind wing window with a black erase marker

[@daveruble5150]

IIRC Crete Carrier has a shag minimum, so shagging can be a good $$ stream when you get service, or if you're waiting for a load to a specific area. I like the video today. I could feel SLOKEVs pain when he didn't know exactly where to be in all the cones, etc. All my best.

California is so lovely

[@bdzcalpubg8926]

I drive for Crete you were one of the reasons why I'm here used to watch your videos when i were in truck school I'm out of West Memphis terminal big fan you're videos gave me some tips as well we might bump into each other one day but I'm a big fan great video

[@truckingwithcrete]

Nice video. Kevin needs to chill 😎 when you are trying to rush. That's when stuff happens. Love your sense of humor, Tanya 😅😂😂😂

[@shirleyhulse6896]

As a english person we can call that shag run something else tayna I am sure you know what I am talking about is that why Kevin has such a bright smile😮

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

Glad you got my joke and commented on it! 😆😁😁😁😉 I was wondering if someone would.

[@allenmurphy9597]

I drive for Crete on the Shaffer side thank you for the video been watching for a long time didnt realize you were at crete 😮

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

Lol!! Hello there fellow CCC driver! How long have you been with Shaffer? Where do you drive out of?

[@CSXOhioRailFanPlus752]

I can’t believe that you guys are still in California

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

😆😆😆🤗

[@edsullivan344]

[@josephtucci1872]

C'mon Kevin why you hitting the wall. Tonya doesn't had her coffee lol 😅

[@doncanaday6406]

Thanks for your still shots. It helps to show where you are.

[@corycampbell9811]

That Pilot in Colton, CA. is a former mom and pop truck stop called Colton Truck Stop. It’s a pay to park truck stop. Not sure how much remodeling ie improvements were made since the purchase. It was pretty run down in not such a good area.

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

Thanks for that insight!

[@geraldjones8032]

Good morning: Enjoyed the video. Nice tour . Enjoy your day and be safe.😊😊😊😊😊

How’s the Garmin Dezl 720 working out for y’all after a few months with it?

[@scottbrown4769]

Hi Kevin and Tonya I take the bus from time to time and when people bring their bikes the policy is the driver is suppose to apply the parking brake to signal the can't move that is a good personal policy

[@TheSupart91]

holy smokes im early uploaded secs ago! drive safe

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

😆😆😆👏👏👏You’re first!!! 🎉

[@KevinHarvey-qw5mj]

Is this the one where you still looking for trailer can't post not up far enough just wondering have a safe trip get this thing figured out so I can post stuff

[@jvjoe4376]

Good question...and people want to know...

[@adrian-gl9bf]

i do enjoy your videos but i don't miss trucking at all lol be safe out there !!

[@rmeshr3657]

Grind that automatic. Maintenance needs more work 😂

[@islandnightowl]

Please take your useless comments elsewhere as they are not appreciated by those of us who enjoy this KZbin channel. Waste of our time reading your self centered crap!

[@terryhartline5600]

Does kevin talk a lot when he's driving?

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

It depends on many things. Sometimes he’s very talkative and sometimes not so much. When timelines are tight and traffic is bad he’s not so chatty.

[@danielyoder3396]

Do yall every pull any one self trailers ?

[@richardeckert6130]

🎉❤

[@kenrosser8160]

There there because the company told them to drop it there an go get a load trailer from some were else.noy all company's out there have a drop lot at there company

[@kenrosser8160]

He needstoteachyouhow to inspect the trailer so he won't have to do both sides to save time

[@bonniegardner1154]

Another tip....always always check trailer before hooking to it..just cause computer says it's empty it's not always so...save a little work
