Truck Vlog #10 ll I love what i do! ll Brisbane-Sydney-Brisbane

[@bonus1638]

Great thumbnail Jacques!! Don’t stress about what and how much content you get out, your work and welfare should always come first. We’re all just glad we get to tag along and absorb the positive vibes. Keep up the great work and have a happy and safe Easter.

[@robertkeast5676]

A great comment on fatigue at the end - and that is the whole reason behind the log books! We can't get enough good truckies today for our losing any needlessly! Recognising fatigue is difficult - accepting it that close to home is heroic! The big transport companies are doing a great job supporting drivers (mind you the penalties for not doing so would be cripling). There is never a standard shift in your line of work - things change all the time on the road. Every Job is a new adventure. I love your vids.

[@coreydavis5552]

Well done 👍 for admitting you can’t drive. 20 years ago we wouldn’t have the guts to say that to a employer as they would have laughed at us and said toughen up and drive. Looking forward to the Saturday night live, what time do think you’ll be starting.

[@crossfamilytrucking]

Thanks mate yeah that’s the first time I felt I was too tired to drive lucky I work for a good mob 👍 I’ll be live around 8pm

[@lisagraham1888]

Awesome son ... loved it ... proud of your decision and ur company for supporting you .. look after u for all of us❤

[@fyiaustralia9686]

Your decision to call it quits at the end is what makes you a good driver. Wise choice and sends a smart message to always drive safely.

[@crossfamilytrucking]

Cheers mate appreciate it 👍

[@ozkatnuss7286]

Mr Cross you wonder why your popular??? It's because you are a genuine bloke, taking safety seriously is way cooler than people think!! Especially when your just trying to get home to your family!

[@crossfamilytrucking]

Thanks brother always supportive 👍

[@danielioane3284]

That was me brother haha, was good meeting you. Enjoy your content and your hustle bro. Keep the solid work up 🙏👌

Smart stuff mate really smart blokes drive big rigs tired and they end up wrecked

[@crossfamilytrucking]

That’s it mate 👍

[@camerongb]

My company is the exact same at the moment, you know within yourself when you can't drive and its great to have the backing up if/when you need it. Good stuff as always!

[@jordankaukau4022]

That truck at 14:05 infront of you was me bro, literally didn't know it was you I thought it was someone else, keep up the hard mahi bro 💯

[@jamesru1]

I use to be a traffic controller at exit 89 Pacific motorway (Qld) and my head use to be so close to the trucks when I put the cones out from the back of the 2 tonne truck

[@crossfamilytrucking]

Yup I always feel like we get way to close!

[@jamesru1]

Nothing you guys can do when there's a cement barrier on your driver side

[@Captain._Phil]

A lot of people don't know how much driving you guys have to do to keep food on the shelves. Thanks for showing us, you are really appreciated. Your company must be good to allow a rescue. Well done for calling it in.

[@crossfamilytrucking]

Cheers brother appreciate it 👍

[@ozkatnuss7286]

Mr Cross you nailed the camera angle and the trailer swap like a pro!!! Awesome footage!

[@Javmac68]

Hey mate, another great vid. I’ve gone back to the beginning of your channel and watching through, awesome. Great to see you met one of your followers and good on him for making the effort too! Maybe I’ll see you one day in Melbourne, I drive past DW in Derrimut all the time. Good to see you progressing bro! See you on the road, look out for a flash, beep and wave! 😁🚛

[@stylo707]

Lov your vid’s man. . Drive a K104 with a C15 in it myself to Surdex steel branches Albury, Shepparton & Bendigo out of Dandenong south. Not a fan of auto shift trucks for a few reasons. . but the way you operate that auto shift I need to watch more of 👍👍 keep safe brother

[@DarthPaddius]

Hey mate, enjoyed the vlog, but the extra vids were also good. Gives a bit of a change and adds more flavour to the channel.

On a side note, if you've never tasted Cape Grim beef, do yourself a favour and try it. It's the most tender, melt in your mouth steak I've tasted.

I think I will after this comment brother never tasted it 👍

Cheers mark appreciate it 👍

[@philsymons9614]

Crackin vid mate, thoroughly enjoy your content. When you are winding up or down your trailer legs on the street have you considered grabbing a collapsible traffic cone to keep in the cab for those times? $12 from bunnings... money well spent in my books. Great call on the fatigue area. I drove for 17 years now I'm in fleet management and I will tell you that is one of the smartest calls a driver can ever make. When one puts the safety of others and the company's reputation over saving a few dollars it speaks volumes of their character. Bring on the next vid!

[@crossfamilytrucking]

I’ve got one mate but in the rush of doing the job I always forget that I have it 😂 cheers mate next video will be up Wednesday 5pm(hopefully)

[@stephenmurray9850]

Been to that Pendal Hill place a few times to do deliveries , that weigh bridge is a killer with the high steel sides ( the freightliner steps cannot be opened there) and the loading dock is a bitch if there are a few trucks in there , very difficult to turn around. Great video. thanks.

[@crossfamilytrucking]

My exact feeling about that place mate lol cheers 👍

[@crossfamilytrucking]

Will do mate 👍 cheers for the feedback

[@rangus.7672]

Hi there bud. ANGUS here from NZ again. Can you demonstrate how the air lines connected and disconnect from your truck and the two trailers please. Here in NZ we have a different set-up coupling our air lines on our truck and trailer units and b- trains units. They are call duo & tri matics couplers with two or three air lines join together to a aluminium coupling device with a handle which you pull down and fits together. Need to show you by photos. Being a ex Kiwi you might seen this set up while you were still living in NZ or maybe not. I drive a Kenworth K200 10-axle truck and train unit here in the South Island curtain sider carting general freight. I can email you a couple of photos of my unit. Enjoy your videos. Well done. Cheers.

[@crossfamilytrucking]

Sure mate I’ll demonstrate how they work very simple system cheers for watching 👍
