You're doing it right young fella. I have been a safety and FMCSA safety and DOT compliance director for several years. I was a driver before being in the office. You have earned your self a subscriber!!!!

[@RunningOTR]

Thank you so much I really appreciate it 🙏

[@reggiehowze1891]

I live on Highway 84 west of Dothan. See lots of Prime trucks going westbound to chicken plant in Laurel Mississippi.

[@RunningOTR]

Yes sir we have some drop and hook there at that chicken plant

[@alicia_nicole444]

So awesome to see Dothan. I knew where you were going by you having liquids. Would’ve loved to see your skills if you were going to Lineage Logistics (chicken plant) because it is very tight. Awesome video.

[@RunningOTR]

Thank you 🙏 I wouldn’t mind a challenge for sure 👍🏼

[@alicia_nicole444]

Good idea to put that towel down. Never thought about doing that.

[@RunningOTR]

Yeah keeps it all clean I love my truck spotless

[@Jevon876]

I buy a case of micro cloth off of Amazon once or twice a month as soon as one get dirty I throw it away

[@monac9459]

You went thru my hometown.

[@RunningOTR]

Really that’s awesome

[@Triple7studios1]

lol . i just stay in bed until my eld shows the 8 hours available. then get up do the pre trip before on duty change , brush my teeth etc then go on duty and wait my 15 min log pti & do final preps before departure. really doesn't matter how one does it as long as you log your pti with the proper time allowed and actually do the pre trip . good video awesome family be safe .

[@RunningOTR]

What a lovely family you have dude. Must play on the heart strings being away week's at a time. I used to tramp in the uk so i have an idea what you must.be feeling at times. Great video dude. Drive safe.👍😁🇬🇧

[@RunningOTR]

Yes I’m very lucky to have a great family it’s difficult at times but I’m grateful my wife supports me in this for our family. We can relate and definitely understand what we feel. Cheers M8

[@aminmosavi6470]

Awesome video thanks 🎉

[@RunningOTR]

Thank you 🙏

[@monsterzero760]

First time here and I am very impressed with your work ethic and responsibility as a driver. A little word of advice from a former driver always have backup tools as needed such as your bolt cutters. Just don’t want you to get stuck because sometimes venders may not lend out their tools. Be safe out there and God bless you and your family!

[@RunningOTR]

Hello thank you so much for the kind feedback. I appreciate the kind words. I will invest in backup tools for sure I haven’t went home yet with the new truck I have plenty of tool in the garage to grab. Thank you and god bless you and your family as well.

[@RunningOTR]

Thank you so much mean alot 😀🙏

[@GearJammerTrucker]

Yeah, bro, your first thought was right. Go to a cat scale and get it weighed out. Gages can be wrong anyway. You won't get a true reading until you supply air to your trailer. It's just an old trucker tip. You don't set your break when you're going across a DOT scale, right? So you don't set them when you're on a cat scale. That's what a true reading is. I'm pretty sure you're dealing with air ride suspension, so your bags need to lift up to explain. And that's when you get your true reading. You take it easy.👍

[@RunningOTR]

Yes sir exactly it’s airbags and I did weight it the truck was out of calibration by 1000 pounds so I re calibrated it. Trailer was accurate. I never set my trailer brakes even parking for the night. When weighting truck I don’t set any brake tractor or trailer even DOT scales including thanks for the tips and watching 🤝

[@mr.dongenergytv7652]

Nice trip bro😊😊

New truck, gotta slam passenger door really hard a few times due to the thick tough seal. Had to do that on my new one.

[@RunningOTR]

Yes sir exactly 😂 people out there thinking damn what’s his problem why so angry slamming them doors so hard 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@GearJammerTrucker]

Hey, bro, I gotta couple a load locks if you need them. Stay safe out here, buddy, and keep the dirty side down. Common

[@RunningOTR]

Hey sir thanks for the offer 🙏 I have plenty of them at my garage in Florida just haven’t went down there yet with a load soon I’ll grab them after a small vacation with the family.

[@sodbuster518able]

When you're at the guard house looking at your tandems, looking like need to go 4 to 6 holes more to the rear

[@RunningOTR]

Where I had it it was fine I had 33,870 on my drives but the truck calibration was off by one thousand pounds i calibrated the gauge and slid the trailer 3 holes back as you said then it was good and perfect. And the trailer wasn’t calibrated either so i fixed it too

[@sodbuster518able]

Maybe refer trailers are heavier in the nose compared to dry van,I do dry van and most often my trl mudflabs @48ft mark

[@RunningOTR]

@@sodbuster518able yeah reefer is heavy on nose alone due to reefer unit on front weighing 1872 pounds to be exact

[@sodbuster518able]

Do you happen to know either Slime pack392 or road runna Nia both youtuber and prime lease drivers with 579 Peterbilt?

Thanks 🙏

[@jefferydil572]

How long you drive for prime its that a good company to work for

[@cliffwhisenant6256]

You could have parked in one of them 3 open spots but then there would be no challenge. But then again your good a backing so is it a challenge anyway?

[@RunningOTR]

I’m not too bad I just like the practice 😂 after I set up I was like oh wow 3 empty spots should of just took that 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@scott16434]

Not sure if I missed it. What was final result on weight. Was sensors off or accurate?

[@RunningOTR]

It was accurate the gauge wasn’t calibrated in the truck since it was brand new I just had to fix it

[@geminiheisserer6677]

May i ask why your recording conversations? im new to the industry and just curious if i need to start doing that

[@RunningOTR]

No I just record it for my videos thanks for watching and the questions 😊

[@sodbuster518able]

At the Loves how come you didn't Cat scale?

[@RunningOTR]

I did I just didn’t record it unfortunately I did scale right after fueling so I can get the whole weight with fuel included.

[@kengol2382]

Next year should be no less than $2.05 or $2.15 or what based on inflation.

[@RunningOTR]

Yeah hopefully the rates get way better fingers crossed 🤞

[@GVal_87]

Easier to just use the apps when you fuel

[@RunningOTR]

I got the apps never linked it yet I should though honestly probably fastest and safest option 🤷‍♂️

[@marcusdenning1649]

How often do u have a 0300 delivery

[@RunningOTR]

It’s honestly random times I deliver and it’s quite often in reefer one day might be 2am one day it may be afternoon the next day 4am etc

[@henryminton4760]

Are you a owner/operator of your truck??Are you leasing your truck from prime??

[@RunningOTR]

I’m just leasing the truck. 😃

[@henryminton4760]

@@RunningOTR Ok,that's good 👍

[@IsThatJustDex]

Why did she stop you from saying the number like that 😭 I hate these shippers/receivers 😅

[@RunningOTR]

Haha I know right I don’t know either she said ughhuh 🤣

[@sodbuster518able]

Why didn't you slide your tandems to the rear before backing into the dock?a lot easier to steer trl with tandems slid back to the rear.

[@jeffreycairns767]

Not true at all

[@blucollr6]

THEY LET YOU HAVE A CB

[@RunningOTR]

Yes they let you have a cb

[@sodbuster518able]

Your tandems to far fwd for that load ,put rear wheels under end of load for rough setting. Why do prime drivers never show weight on drive axel s.you always want more weight on drives than trl tandems

[@RunningOTR]

Yeah I know you always need to have more weight on trailer because you want to be towing the trailer not the trailer pushing you.
