Driver Shocked By Shipper's Huge Costly Mistake: Prime Inc Trucking

[@truckingwithrex]

If your thinking of coming to Prime Inc or want to get your CDL license. I honestly believe Prime is a solid company to start your trucking journey. Make sure when you fill out the online application @ www.primeinc.com put my driver code STREXA on page 2 of the application when it ask who referred you. Thanks for watching my video 😊🙏

[@AngelPerez-cy1ni]

[@truckingwithrex]

@@AngelPerez-cy1ni glad to help, shoot me an email [e-mail]

[@danielabernathy6123]

Hey man, I’m currently in Truck Driving school, I just finished my first week and passed my CDL permit test. Watching your videos helped me more than I realized. Thank you Rex.

[@wilmervalles1509]

Rick and Morty? Lol. I appreciate your time to teach us upcoming Truckers about the tanker business. I am looking to get into the tanker business with Prime once my CDL gets issued. I drive for the Military and I'm having my experience cross over. Thanks Battle, hope to see you on the road.

Your sheet reminded me that when I was aboard ship in the Navy our sheets were actually a big bag which fit over the mattress. Once a week we all stripped the sheet bag off our mattresses & filled the bag with the weeks dirty laundry. The laundry crew would come by & pickup the bag & later that same day it would be returned all clean & folded for us to stow in our lockers. Oh, the mattress bag? It was called a Fart Sack. !

[@truckingwithrex]

Fart Sack 😂

[@jeffreyroehm5904]

Called that to in the marines

[@Racefanmike]

Another great video. Its a shame that if anyone makes a mistake its always the truck driver that suffers the consequences.

[@truckingwithrex]

Couldn’t agree more it ashamed we get stuck with it all…

[@malikdigger4544]

Another fantastic video Rex clean Lincoln Town Car pearl white with 117,000 back when was real luxury land yacht

[@KabbGotti]

At first I just wanted to drive trucks* But, because of you!! I’m tanking baby Keep trucking Rex

[@Marbo5252]

Cool video rex! Cant wait for the next one!

[@railfanjk8964]

@Marbo5252 Do you have a cdl?

[@DiabeticTrucker302]

My man rocking that town car!!! I miss mine

[@kyeadams6716]

Wasssup, Rex. Going through the PSD phase, Mann. I’m was the Springfield terminal currently for training. I’m going in the tanker division too. Mann, hope to be able to meet you soon, man. You make tanker division very fun, Mann. I be learning alot watching your videos. I appreciate yah, fashoo. 💪🏾

[@truckingwithrex]

Hey brother you got this man! Stay focused I’m sure we will bump into each other my dude 🤞🙏

[@illphill5588]

Seeing you drive through the terminal brings back so many memories lol

[@poochie3275]

The 1st time you hit your leg it's on the new box, the other hits are on you. My daddy always said, "The only things you can do something about are the things you can do something about". The tanker guy messed up the paper work, that's on him. As for the frustrations because of him, Rex life is short. All you get from worrying about his mistake is an ulcer.

[@lindalewis3955]

I always used pipe fittings gloves for fuel( insulated for winter), and leather for other things. Now I’d use mechanic gloves instead of leather.

[@melvinalbert6172]

Nice looking Lincoln

[@BassMaann]

Rex. thank you for taking the time to make these videos for us. I've wanted my CDL ever since I've been a little kid running around in truck yards. these videos have helped me decide I'm finally going do it (code strexa) hope to see you out there and shake your hand and tell you thank you.

[@truckingwithrex]

Really glad my videos help, that’s why I continue to make them to show everyone what trucking is really like! And to help others 🤞🙏

[@iShokan]

Hey Rex love your vids and recently sub to your channel, I’m slowly working up the courage to switch careers into trucking, think maybe on your next video you show how a driver would “pre-plan” a trip?

[@truckingwithrex]

I have this is some of my previous videos. I’ll try to throw some more trip planning in! 🤞

[@railfanjk8964]

@yungsavvy Do you have a cdl?

[@iShokan]

@@railfanjk8964 No not yet I’m getting my permits in a few weeks

[@Dbcooper45]

I hate that tyson in scranton Arkansas!! I've waited 8 hours there before

[@grahampost7416]

new follower here awesome video. Safe travels.

[@truckingwithrex]

Welcome aboard!

[@joehilton9208]

Did you check in at AFB in Aurora? I just finished TNT with my trainer last week. If I'm not mistaken they want us to check in at the guard shack now in Aurora. Apparently, they had a couple of tanks get out of temp and blamed us. I'm not 100% sure so maybe check with Kyle.

[@truckingwithrex]

He’s never said anything to me about checking in down there huh 🤔

[@The_Reefer_Driver]

You should try the burritos in Bakersfield ca they are a monster

[@eddiediaz9841]

Attitude no communication and poor social skills and Receivers universal all suck!!! One of cons of being a trucker . Come with good attitude and these receivers worst attitude!! Understand your frustration Rex. Be safe otr

[@denis6357]

Nice Lincoln town car. Enjoy the V8 engine & rear wheel drive.

[@glcmranger421]

This is the second time this happened to you at this loader. You didn’t learn after the first time to check the seal before hooking up to it. I guess the THIRD time will be your charm. 🙃

[@tripp540]

that lady at the guard shack seems to love her job...

[@truckingwithrex]

Lol

[@albertotognoni4819]

Good content

[@cren29]

Rex rolling the Lincoln. Looks great. Hows the miles on it

[@truckingwithrex]

Only has 117k original miles, big and comfy rides smooth like a boat lol

[@railfanjk8964]

@cren29 do you have a cdl?

[@Overlord3420]

Ummm, did you not notice the right blinker on that trlr is in the wrong spot lol

[@kunalsingh_yt]

@4:23 What is the name of background music

[@JS-dm2tz]

That’s a huge complex prime has. Wow

[@avalon7128]

One thing I wish prime would do is have a actual load board. Yea you won’t be able to get some of your crap load run but it’s the only way you can get money out of shippers that try to be to cheap.

[@deontegraham9559]

Wow 😮😮

[@elijahbethune6581]

Does prime pay for your truck insurance?

[@truckingwithrex]

Yes it’s included in your payment

[@rhett5914]

It’s hard to see in video but it looks like your air hoses are close to rubbing the deck.

[@truckingwithrex]

Yeah I adjusted them the other day! Thanks 🤞

[@exactinmidget92]

1k miles for 1500 is silly.

[@MikeDCWeld]

That sounds pretty damn good to me. I'd have to do somewhere on the order of 3,200 miles to get to that much.

[@dansdiesel767]

​@@MikeDCWeldhe also has to pay for all the fuel out of that

[@avalon7128]

I mean everyone’s financial situation is different. You got to remember generally these trucks run 7 miles to the gallon (sometimes more/some times less). So he burning about 143 gallons. They also get fuel discounts. So let’s say they get 25 cent off average is 3.30 to 3.50 for diesel now least around me so that’s about $400-$500. So that’s about $1000 for about a day and half of work. Again everyone’s a little different but that could be about 4K in a week to the truck after fuel. You can write off pretty much everything for your truck and up to 1500 per month of home expenses. You can make a lot of loads work for ya if you know how to do your business right.

[@dansdiesel767]

@@avalon7128 ok but you still have lease payment or loan payment insurance taxes ifta 2290 bobtail insurance is fuel so take half out for your expenses then take 25% for taxes and 25% for fuel just doesn't seem good for a long term plan

[@metaparcel]

​@@dansdiesel767of its once or twice why does long term matter?

[@Bruceel_jefe]

Are you inedible? Primes tanks are in terrible shape 😂

[@truckingwithrex]

Yes inedible, these inedible trailers are beaters lol

[@henry68157]

The locals here pronounce Plattsmouth as "Plattsmith", I know, I know, it spells like Plattsmouth, but for some reason the mouth part gets pronounced as smith for some strange reason. LOL -

[@christrella3134]

So much drama over chicken fat. Oh my!

[@Overlord3420]

Would you say you run mostly midwest on the inedible side?

[@truckingwithrex]

Yes

[@josaywhat]

Wubba Lubba dub dub DRIVER lol

[@briantarr585]

I wish I could tell you it gets better but after 25 years of doing this job I can say it doesn’t. You will always deal with that kind of stuff. Dispatch lying to you to get what they want, shippers screwing up and wasting your time, other drivers not taking care of trailers and leaving the problem for the next guy, etc. You just get used to it and deal with it

[@joeprocopio494]

Xactly!!!😮

[@danishpuma]

They filled it with sailship fuel. 😂

[@bryantsanders6869]

Yessir

[@xxlsutigersxx55]

You ever thought about becoming a trainer??

[@truckingwithrex]

Not in the cards currently my truck doesn’t have the room, later down the road I’ll switch to a full-size truck and look into training

[@kickass-dm6ew]

Lol prime is such a joke cheap ass reefer rates cheap ass tanker rates 😂

[@truckingwithrex]

Yep and I’m still pulling 105K per year after expenses 😂 😂 😂
