[@gordd7348]

I've never seen a truck driver, wear gloves and wash his hands every time and be afraid of walking through a puddle. Alex is certainly not a typical truck driver.

[@TylerS-r7y]

If any trucks move an inch when he’s trying to dock it throws him off. Your not the only driver in the world buddy

[@carlbeckman7606]

Soooo you see a trucking two hundred yards away and hit the breaks then say "What' this guy doing!?!?" Happens in almost all his video that I have seen. SMH.

[@disturbed98335]

​@carlbeckman7606 probably a habit he picked up from the isolation. Hes got nobody to talk to but himself

[@Val2024-c6x]

I've noticed you back up better when you park between two other trucks then when you have a wide open space. I do realize stuff was in the way this time though. Good job.

[@mikeb129]

Dude set up for a straight back and still messed up 🤦🏻‍♂️ 😂

[@danrickr5273]

“If I don’t turn the truck off all the air gonna spray” no guy it will only spray if the trailer brake lever is push it

[@carldrexler7883]

I like it when there’s no sound,you don’t hear him whining 😂

[@ItsDeFyO]

I have never seen someone complain about almost every time they have to dock.. that wasn’t even a hard dock. You complain all the time and act like everything is so hard, why are you still a truck driver?

[@MaStErMiNd60133]

That dock is easy to get to he just complaining at this point. I still support him but dang

[@user-zy4uc3fq8s]

Yeah that dock looked pretty easy

[@marksellinger3736]

Is it just me or did the audio keep cutting in out? Safe driving alex!

[@Colin_In_VK]

Was thinking the same thing.

[@Poppy_love59]

What did you say ? lol

[@aronyak1]

No, the constant blinker noise is causing you to experience hearing loss.

[@SWalker71]

Keep on truckin’, Alex. Us non-truckers enjoy the ride alongs. A different life.

[@NoLimit_DE]

Sometimes I think Alex is a youtuber and not a trucker.

[@stillanoldman]

He will be in time.

[@breeze624]

Never slide your tandems until you're lined up in front of your door

[@ruska0110]

Some receivers make you slide them before they even let you past the guard shack

[@billfryer5911]

Even though it makes a wider turn radius, sometimes having the tandems back helps to better guide the rear of the trailer into the hole.

[@wendelpfefferkorn2940]

Pull forward towards the doc loop around right back in piece of cake

[@nickbeckham14]

When you get into spots like that wen u delivered the card board man you just gotta slow down look at the situation don't over think it just go for it....have a plan and execute it the more you over think the better chance of screwing up you have, and remember nice and easy quit sawing the wheel so much

[@tutie]

He didnt realize he could have swung to the right and turned left towards the docks and circled around like that....that would have been the easiest by far....but hes too worried about things that "could" happen....but never will lol

[@josephsummers3241]

You have to stop complaining about everything

[@SNATRAVELS]

nothing like the flashers blinking to start the video

[@stephonwilmot1006]

What's up Alex? Can we get more footage of actual driving? Even if it's sped up, I would like to see more turns, especially in cities. I follow your channel and watch a lot of your videos because I am a recent graduate startting a new job soon and I gain a lot of valuable experience from your videos. I just don't get to see many town/city driving clips from a first person point of view. Keep up the good work and just know you are driving way better than a lot of the guys I've seen so far. And then you got a whole channel devoted to "bonehead truckers" too.

[@dbssdas]

I understand driving a tractor trailer is tough, but the amount of groaning and moaning and complaining ,you do like Ray Romano, makes me really wonder what would happen if you were driving a manual. It seems like you are pushing the truck instead of driving it. But one thing I can be sure of if I hire you, both the truck and the load is gonna be safe. Late but safe. And what's wrong with the cemetery in the back? Those folk give you no trouble.

[@JN10NL]

It’s really not tough at all.. he is just in the wrong career. I wouldn’t doubt he has a restriction on his license for automatic only.

[@metaluzc]

@@JN10NL that's why these mega carriers are training people in automatics, they know those drivers can't jump ship to a smaller/better company that only has manuals.

[@JN10NL]

@@metaluzc gp doesn’t train. I’m glad I went a different route for training compared to a company for it.

[@dbssdas]

@@JN10NL Yeah even I thought so. The way he keeps complaining about the truck and everything, he definitely is in the wrong job.

[@Seal__]

There's no audio in several parts of the video.

[@builtontherockhomestead9390]

I hate it when videos are silent.

[@MrCrazycook8]

Maybe he is saying some words that are not KZbin approved?

[@scottboyer8450]

@@MrCrazycook8 more than likely it has to do with company approval. He's likely better being safe, than sorry.

[@Houndini]

The stress of a heavy load? Well he should try a 350+ ton Rock Tk.

[@mountuplikeaneagle]

The Mike was cutting out, maybe not plug in good

[@Steve-bl8rx]

Just ask another driver to back your truck in for you.

[@dennishafer9924]

You have no confidence in your ability. You give up to early, never say you cant do something before you try it.

[@danrickr5273]

This guy does nothing right if you watching him and you thinking about doing trucking, it’s not as hard as he makes it look and he does a lot of unnecessary shit and say wrong shit hopefully you not watching to learn from him

[@leonsmitherman5688]

He is a you tuber and he does this 💩 to get you guys to comment… the more comments and interactions a video gets the stronger his algorithm and the more he makes. Look at how many followers and how many views his videos get. He posts a few bad turns and the comments pile in. Again he’s a trucker for KZbin content. 😅

[@MrAntonio414]

I just don’t understand why you go too far to the front. I understand thats good for rookies but man you exaggerate on the distance. There is plenty of space to back up without having to go so many feet ahead.

[@michaelhayes4537]

The cemetery is the final resting place for drivers who tried the Old School Truck Stop's meatloaf surprise.

[@glennforman9631]

@michaelhayes4537 *Dude,* what you said is *SO* freakin' funny! Never ask for the "Blue Plate Special" from the diner at the Old School Truck Stop! Thanks for sharing!

[@BlazesGamezy]

The inside of his truck looks better than most of the modern car I don’t know why but that’s just my opinion

[@lolltaylor]

Dude you have so much room in that lot to park. You need to really focus on your backing skills at this point and stop being afraid of it. I had to learn how to blindside back as part of an account I was on, you just do it.

[@Generalizedfeelings]

6:41 uh no? Truck being on doesn't cause the air to leak out. You not setting your trailer brakes causes air to leak.

[@davidthorpe1631]

This guy asses around more than any I've seen. They load faster than he gets to the docks

[@archiescottincny]

Like the animation at 17"36 w/sound fx. Nice way to show where you're located and easier to see than phone maps. Good addition.

[@williamburbage5774]

Hey Alex! Don 't beat yourself up over docking! You are a Pro and doing great! Bill NYPD Retired 😊

[@jesusresto11]

I been telling you to get backing lessons with riding with j. You still look like in your rookie days 🫡

[@brianjones8800]

Always love your videos, Alex! You were in my home state and at one point not too far from my hometown of Enterprise, AL. Can't wait for the next video! Stay safe

[@neelsswierstra4603]

Empty truck weight with trailer is 17 ton so your load is only about 20 ton,that is like driving a empty truck. That is nice,we carry 56 ton total weight with truck (112000lbs).

[@scottdawe7412]

Sorry Alex, you really lack backing skills. Stop whining!!

[@carldrexler7883]

That’s gonna be your epitaph, can’t make that turn 😢

[@nathanbarrial9634]

hello i really appriciate what you guys do out there i ben watching your videos since your last company and i been noticing that in this videos sometimes the sound cuts off idk if it its my computer or your gopro

[@stevennovakovich2525]

Your audio keeps dropping out. Don't know if that is intentional or not OR a networking/buffering issue on my side or somewhere else.

[@nicksoehren4812]

Okay let’s be honest I’m not trying to be a dick or a super trucker I’ve only been doing it for two years. But that first dock in the beginning of this video he had plenty of space he’s just picky.

[@matthewroberts55932]

27:31 Air smelling like salt, pepper, and garlic is definitely not a sign of toxic air. If it was toxic, you would experience coughing, dizziness, fatigue, and headaches.

[@glennforman9631]

@matthewroberts55932 The air in *almost all* pizza joints smells like salt, pepper, and garlic, _Right?_

[@leohernandez1240]

Not trying to talk bad but idk how you stress about backing when you have so much room around you. I get trying to be safe but you worry about it too much that it’s clouding your judgement.

[@scottdawe7412]

We’ll said!! You should read comments you can learn from the comments!!

[@scottdawe7412]

How is it with a GPS he never knows where he is? He worries too much about his trailer matching his truck, gloves and hand sanitizer, “Where you going?” How long has he been driving and still he isn’t proficient in backing. Like another comment, why are you still driving?

[@deebly_goncerned]

It surprises me he works for this company, they are one of the highest paying for company drivers in dry van as far as I'm aware. That first dock was so easy. At least he admitted he misjudged it because the flatbed was there so it didn't let him get the "perfect" setup

[@jacobravenwood7968]

​@scottdawe7412 Not really, because, according to most of the stans and gatekeepers on this channel, this comment is a straight up form of attack and is bullying and hate. And if you're not going to kiss the KZbin's ass you shouldn't leave a comment at all in their Opinions, but it's like that on almost every youtube channels nowadays.😅

[@MathewWilliams-v7d]

Same content, different day! Every single video is the exact same. Backing up to receiver, quick shot at fuel island or truck stop, then pulling up to deliver another load. And he no longer replies to comments (now that he achieved a certain number of subscribers). Bottom line, he is making money off of the same dreary content day after day. His videos used to be entertaining at one time.

[@jimmyjohnson1452]

Maybe you should give UBER a shot.

[@goodmuzikfan]

Indeed!

[@craigdarby9533]

😂😂😂

[@neiljoseph9462]

11:55 this wat is used to make cardboard boxes. I will be carrying it this weekend

[@DevilRuns]

I love watching your videos every day. I can’t wait to start driving.

[@SNATRAVELS]

he doesnt show driving, only backing and flashers that make the damn sound thru out the video

[@KK-jj7zi]

If your ever offered a load that goes to a UNITED NATURAL FOODS warehouse don't take it if you dislike backing up in tight spots

[@mendezra1988]

Bro why do you moan a lot when you're backing up? 😂 i like the videos

[@scottied67]

The power steering does not make it easy enough for him to turn the wheel, hence he groans and strains to turn it while backing in.

[@BigPun1989]

Hey alex there multiple spots in the video where the aduio cuts in and out

[@jorgiepoorgie]

Another great video ! Why do you use Garmin GPS as opposed to Google or Waze ?

[@carldrexler7883]

Or trucker path

[@robpetry84]

Change your turn signal/4 way sound to Africa by Toto.

[@betzaidavazquez5579]

Hey Alex don't beat yourself up over parking, hang in there. Some days are good and some are tough. Love the videos, stay safe. 🥰🌟✌

[@Steakurclaim916]

You didn’t think about the nose dive cause your not experienced enough….and that comes with time ……also you can disconnect the air lines with the truck on as long as your knobs are pulled out

[@deebly_goncerned]

Do you have TruckerPath? Good for finding hidden gem parking spots

[@brianburman6580]

Wiley Sanders trucking from Troy, Alabama!! I met Wiley while attending Troy (State) University in the 1980s.

[@davekenney3693]

Alex it happens to all of us the main thing is you got it my brother nice job

[@KenBurnham66]

Great video but there were an excessive number of places where audio cut out (sometime for quite a while).

[@TruckingForHermes]

I noticed this on another content creators channel too. It might be a KZbin issue.

[@Rob-ik2cv]

I saw my 1st GP Transco truck driving south on I95 in Maryland tonight 10/12.

[@18wheeler77]

22:23 why does the sound keep cutting off?!!

[@loquatdumpling]

That's what we call monster rolls. If I remember right they weigh like close to 2500 pounds🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@Southernjuggalo63]

Alex i like watching your videos only 1 complaint PLEASE EDIT OUT THE BLINKERS AND 4WAYS SOUND PLEASE keep up the good videos

[@Jabbajawz4life]

Alex, you could have somewhat blindsided and corrected a few times into a straight back. I told you once, I’ll tell you again. Sometimes you have to just trust yourself. You had more than enough room

[@rafaelalvarado8320]

Buenos videos Alex!!

[@paxr1s279]

Atta boy Alex keep up the good work :)

[@ThomasBusha-hh1ou]

Your gopro the sound was cutting in and out and sometimes the viewers couldn't really hear what you were saying.

[@nickbeckham14]

And I'm not understanding why you shut your truck off every single time you get out of your truck, it literally makes no sense that's just more ware n tear in your starter

[@im_keinyl]

Cuz he's not a truck driver he is just a delivery boy who complains alot and don't know alot of the truck he drive, if he don't do youtube he probably got fired way back because he always late at deliveries

[@mountuplikeaneagle]

​@@im_keinylOkay genius what is the definition of truck driver? You pick up loads of merchandise and take it to another location then you pick-up another load and to another location. You do that over and over

[@mountuplikeaneagle]

​@@im_keinylHe's the trucking company's dream driver. He takes pride in his job, takes care of the equipment including keeping it clean. He does his job very well. There are a few legends in their own mind that love to mock him.

[@mountuplikeaneagle]

He doesn't shut it off everytime

[@wendelpfefferkorn2940]

Bankers hours......ten hour break and get moving

What's with editing down all of the backing footage? That's one of the most popular parts of trucking videos... 😕

[@jakemc2373]

Because he’s so bad at backing!!!

[@jimmyjohnson1452]

If he didn't it would be a 4 hour vlog

[@lenisbeltran4888]

Does your company pay for fuel and food and is your truck automatic or manual

[@thesausage351]

All companies pay fuel if you’re an employee and using their truck. It’s an auto. You see him shifting P/R/D with his right hand on a wiper/blinker arm.

So funny how people are complaining and whining like five year old little girls but still over here watching his videos. 😂 Did you know you could watch something else? There are other channels you know! 🤷🏻‍♀️🤪

[@jacobravenwood7968]

Lol Isn't it funny how there are so many people on KZbin who feel it's their job to come on to these channels and defend. KZbinrs like stans and Gatekeepers from the bad mean horrible nasty commenters.😂 Did you know there are other channels that you could go defend? After all there are plenty of other channels that need gate keepers🤣🤪🙊

[@thesausage351]

I don’t see too many people outright attacking him. Criticising, sure, but usually criticising and explaining how to do it better. He’s very indecisive when reversing and in parking and it wastes a heap of time. If you don’t challenge yourself and try more difficult things you don’t improve.

[@sheedgriffin1166]

sorry about these Mississippi roads they're complete trash.
