DAY IN THE LIFE OF A TRUCK DRIVER ( PART 2 )

[@Dipperdap1]

The best part of all your videos is the driving. I love the sound of that truck. Its very soothing. The Honesty and truthfulness of you videos is very refreshing.

[@ralphromair5176]

Enjoying your videos, and liking the way you’re “upgrading” your truck. The older ones are still cool. You really can’t “personalize” newer trucks. ‘Keep on truckin’.

[@michaelford9089]

Why can't you personalize new trucks ? You should look & see what drivers are doing with new trucks

[@chuckychuck]

You really remind me of life is good channel with that camera setup, giving your viewers the perfect scenery views, can't find to many trucker channels anymore that does this.

[@seal5215]

Hey Bud at 44:44 that's Lake Norman just South of Mooresville, NC. It's good to see you're back on the road. STAY SAFE !!!

Hi 👋 from England 🇬🇧 Loving your longer vlogs ! Subbed

[@TruckerAK]

I’m glad you enjoy thanks mate

[@JamieS420]

I remember the first time I heard buzzing from power lines, I was stood underneath some in the middle of a field and was slightly worried my ass was gonna get Tesla coiled 😂, nice chilled drive AK 👍👌

[@lukuswilliams1233]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 a little foreshadowing at 2:34 🤣🤣🤣 ( THE LANDSTAR TRUCK)

[@Noname13479]

One of the best trucking channels!

[@chadbeach606]

Give Vail and Eisenhower a go in Colorado!! Those are grades!! Keep up the good work!!

[@jamesbradbury3526]

good vlog again i like the long vlogs keep them coming and im from the uk

[@TruckerAK]

I love the UK 🇬🇧

[@jmoor3032]

That mountain is hell going up in the winter. Nice view for sure.

[@davidwilliams6645]

I miss the open road I'm down due to health issues hopefully be back out there next month.

[@ICYPROFITS]

Not sure why your steering like that. Seems too sensitive

[@TwistersmusicRadio]

You were 100 pct correct about pilot truck for wide load in front of you! P.S. I never pulled 5th wheel pin till I lowered landing gear, Ive seen a few drivers get distracted and forget, and trailers dropped onto truck frame rail or worse the ground. Just a hint!

[@rightlanefreighttrain2796]

Yoooo. Your channel has grown exponentially bro

[@shortstroke8712]

That mountain is called Fancy Gap not my airy. Mount airy is a town up there! Drive safe!

[@cr250rish]

It seems like your fighting the steering wheel the whole time is the steering loose? Love the vids man I’m just wondering is all

[@bobsmith1965]

The angel of the oil dipstick is odd. Straight in? I've had numerous engine styles and its always been straight up and down.

[@BoxallBoy1]

You can go 75mph in trucks in the US!? Here in the UK all of our trucks are limited to 56mph some are less! 75 is stupid fast! Trucks are hard to stop at 56 let alone 75!

[@peterliska5145]

Hello Trucker AK, im from slovakia, i watching your videos every day, i really like your job :), i hope, one day i will doing this job :) Don´t stop making a good videos :)

[@byronseagrave5297]

D o t or cops might holler that e log is in your line of vision you know how they are!!! Hope everything else goes well for you!! Be safe out there Brother Peace

[@apgcamort3470]

Glad to see you took the risk and got back out on the road! Also what kinda ELD do you use? Like whats the name of the software or the company?

[@willperry2953]

I'm sure this has already been asked but what camera are you using? Awesome videos - keep it up!

[@TruckerAK]

GoPro hero 8

[@characterhardwoodsanddesig8462]

Do you watch Eiver 2 Trucker? He packs healthy food to bring on his trips. Think he's running the same truck you are.

[@TruckerAK]

Yeah I watch him

[@gous5649]

Hey Ak, can I ask what made u want to change over to trucking from your old job? I'm kinda in the same boat. Thx

[@seal5215]

Yeah no doubt,the mirrors the other way like the ones in the classic you saw at the gas station,they look bad ass brother!!! SLEEK LOOK!!!

[@incarsus]

I get 7.5 - 8mpg going 75 in my cascadia.

[@georgesegura5525]

dude, did you ever check into the trucker strike in washington dc?

[@TruckerAK]

Yeah I looked into it saw the posts

[@earlemersonjr9784]

Loved this video

[@davisebbert]

Are you considered OTR or Regional now that you are Owner Operator? Or is Owner Op both? TIA.

[@nightwatchman8128]

I love your channel!! Can't get enough. But, dude, COLUMBIA!! Not Columbus. As a South Carolinian, had to say so. Keep it up bruh. Love it!

[@royalwheels3482]

Loved the video

[@watomb]

Pulling the 5 wheel before lowering the landing gear is like playing with fire. Brokers are middle men that really are not needed anymore. Technology like Uber is quickly replacing them.

[@davidwilliams6645]

People walk on that bridge to fish.you crossing the santee river

[@wisconsinbigrigs8427]

Are you going to paint the rest of the truck black, or paint the hood white?

[@diegohenriquez9216]

Excelente video

[@moodswing2651]

Why not use the Jake brake. Its better that ridding the brakes all the time and it let your brakes last longer too.

[@TruckerAK]

I use the trailer brakes to save my own brakes some places I go to you aren’t aloud to use jakes

[@moodswing2651]

@@TruckerAK wow really! Here in Jamaica you of to use the jakes because the are narrow and step in the mountains.

[@markp7052]

What kind of camera you use?

[@arminridder4535]

Nice video's bro! And greting from Holland Europa ravenstein.

[@KingStreetRob]

Boat stands for Break Out Another Thousand.

[@Realife.G3]

What the point of having a 13 speed or a 18 speed if your just going to do 65

[@TruckerAK]

Fuel economy

[@Realife.G3]

Trucker AK Oh,Keep up the good work 👍👍👍

[@shortstroke8712]

More gears are more about pulling ability and fuel economy than speed

[@chuckychuck]

👍👍👍👍

[@krisbryant7100]

Do the truck drive or feel different??? Since you've had the work done.

[@pazchais]

@trucker ak dont use waze google maps is better

[@Mr.Int3]

@58:26 what are the zip ties suppose to do exactly?

[@anthonyflanery2765]

It holds the locks in place. If you dont and hit a big bump or something going down the road, the container can jump off the chassis if the locks move. That wouldnt be good

[@adriannicholson8819]

shit there a lot of flop in your steering wheel and fuel card help big time 15% of every time you use it and run biodiesel the thing that pissis me of is the bloody def tank

[@brianadams429]

Did anyone else notice 4 times he called Columbia, Sc Columbus. Dude Columbus is in Ohio not South Carolina. I could imagine some broker puting go pick up in Columbus, actuall location Columbia.

[@chrisgeorge74]

Why is it at only 360p?

[@TruckerAK]

I don’t know honestly I think it’s in KZbin’s side I downloaded it at 1080p

[@ronniepitts4784]

That's Columbia SC not Columbus on I 24 !!!!!

[@jtagv26]

I would really like if you get the same mirrors as the other Classic in the gas station. They make look the truck way better. Keep it up AK.

[@TruckerAK]

Thanks I think I might

[@chrisbennett8538]

Yes switch those mirrors

[@georgewilson1184]

Trucker AK I really like your Freight Liner XL classic keep improving that big Dude Hope you got your Gear box problems fixed now let’s discuss your diet take it from me subway can land you in the hospital it did me years ago avoid deli cold cuts at all costs I don’t care how hungry you are always go for fresh fruit and vegetables and nuts get a can of pork n beans peanut butter n jelly trust me man I know what that deli crap can do have a safe trip AK

[@wilmerlundquist2984]

Are you working for a company or what?/Swedish guy

[@redlinetrucking3397]

How many miles on the Freightliner ?

[@TruckerAK]

1.3million on the body but 50k on the rebuild

[@arrowkart4j]

My FLD will run 80 but I run 70.. That's plenty fast for me.

[@bobsmith1965]

One of these days you'll crank the landing gear down before you unhook the air lines and pull the 5th wheel. You said you've been doing this 3 years so there is time to learn.

[@tdaustin6166]

Your video are awesome

[@smilingbob6708]

Columbia not Columbus. Fancy Gap should never smoke a brake. I couldn't stand 65 all the time. Old N.C. stick hauler. Back in the day it was more like 85 to 90. You wouldn't understand without being there.

[@Benny-yy7on]

is it just me or is it stuck at 360p

Would you go to Pam transport to get your cdl at no cost out of pocket.?

[@loadedtrucker447]

Just say no to Pam! They have a terrible rep! Find a better company if you like yourself. Whoever you sign with, read the contract thoroughly -- before going to orientation -- since you will be married to that company usually for at least a year. Nothing is free in trucking.

[@MacMilly707]

@@loadedtrucker447 hey bro thank you that sounds like great advice. And I'll definitely look into different companies I was just thinking about Pam because they're willing to take me like the second. thanks for your reply.

[@MacMilly707]

@@loadedtrucker447 nothing's free and trucking I'm glad you said that.

[@loadedtrucker447]

@@MacMilly707 Your welcome bud. Look at my channel, where I have my subscriptions public. You will see alot of knowledgeable drivers and some trainers. There are alot of questions that you need to answer in order to get yourself into the right situation with a company to help you get your CDL and then work for. It can be difficult to figure out what questions to ask then find companies that meet your requirements. Using Prime Inc as an example, do they provide the type of training you want? Are they a company you want to work for, for the 1 year term to fulfill the contract requirement? So there are many factors to each question.

[@loadedtrucker447]

@@MacMilly707 I can understand you want to get started but I suggest that you do look at other companies and see lookup to see what other people have experienced there, as an indicator of what might be in store for you. You might check out the best fleets to drive for 2020 and recent years, with a Google search. You may find the company you really want cannot take you into training right away, but the wait will be worth it. Best of luck to you!!
