Prime Inc got me on a mission 🤯🤔

[@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 🙂🤙💯

[@timcouch2077]

Always looking forward to your next video

[@shipmate3577]

Lesson learned is carry a spare elbow and check the back before taking the load

[@williesimmons625]

Good information about and the life of your job.👍 this is why I look forward to when they give me my truck after upgrade

[@joehilton9208]

Thanks for another good video, great content. Your hard work and determination is definitely going to pay off.

[@taurussunbeauty]

Love the new intro!! ❤️‍🔥🤘🏽🤙🏽

[@Dee4real]

Man that sucks our dispatchers are all over the place I only like dealing with Kyle or Brent anybody else don’t really understand the ins and outs

[@cameronclark8878]

Those 8 mins gave me a an anxiety attack in the beginning lol

[@mvpmasterjay]

Damn I know it was annoying having to hook back up to your trailer literally after you just unhooked from it lol 😅

[@TruckerToCorporate]

That intro is fire 🔥

[@JdSmailAuto]

God bless you that would frustrate the shit outta me

[@josehuezo3119]

Amazing skills that you have. Thank you for everything you do 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 ☕️ ☕️

[@truckingwithrex]

Thank you! I just want to share my knowledge and experience.

[@shermanjack7251]

New sub that’s a bombshell

[@wmgthilgen]

Sorry if this seems rude, but as someone who has an excess of two million miles prior to their retirement from the trucking industry. And had been envolved over the many year's in pulling various trailer's, some of which were tanks. It is part of the mandated pretrip to make sure every thing is opertable on both the tractor and various trailer's meaning types prior to hualing it. Had you done a proper pretrip, you would have noticed the missing elbow and wouldn't have found yourself in the position you did.

[@truckingwithrex]

Your not being rude, just fyi this trailer i picked up was preloaded and already sealed at the shipper before i dropped my empty clean. So you know i cannot break the seals prior to arrival to the receiver. Primes tank wash guys or the driver who dropped this should have recognized this.

[@gadoybuck2884]

took the words out my mouth

[@defunkymonky]

I’m pretty sure that you said so in the beginning 😊

[@truckingwithrex]

@@defunkymonky lol I did

[@d.r.e.357]

Man only if u could have broke the seals💯 but man your vids are great fr

[@truckingwithrex]

Appreciate that bro! Be safe out there OTR 💯!!!!!!

[@Joelittle_]

I got that elbow oofs sold it to the scrap yard though.

[@TruckerToCorporate]

Always put that five foot to the bottom of the pump

[@thehovermatic1243]

Pumpin off. Lol.

[@stephenkamau8848]

Hey there Rex am your biggest fan. What should I do if I. Wanna drive peterbuilt truck

[@truckingwithrex]

Prime has peterbilts

[@bobsymonds208]

why did you not notice it when you checked the trailer b4 hooking up to it.?

[@truckingwithrex]

Outside cabinet was sealed by shipper after trailer was loaded (this was a drop and hook) we can’t break the seals. That has to be done by the receiver. The driver who dropped this empty trailer to get loaded should’ve spotted this but didn’t.

[@williampockoski5029]

It’s disappointing how an error on one person part affects others down the line. With the elbow on the other truck missing does Prime become reactive or proactive. I’ll bet reactive, now the other driver loses time, losing time is the most valuable item you own. You do a really great job moving product. Showing things 4 wheelers do not understand. Stay safe. Keep the shinny side up.

[@aarronortiz2178]

i have my endorsement and i watched this video with excitement ! lollll

[@truckingwithrex]

😂

[@gadoybuck2884]

remind me why i left tanker again?

[@domingoperez3282]

Well, x next time you have to have in mind to have in extra one with you....just in case....

[@Mani.bigbank]

Hey man what’s your camera setup and how do you have it set up on your head?

[@truckingwithrex]

My setup..... GoPro Hero 10, media mod and GoPro head strap.

[@Mani.bigbank]

Thanks man fellow prime driver btw. Might try this KZbin stuff out lol. Love your videos.

[@hogrider2901]

Pre trip before picking up trailer?

[@truckingwithrex]

Always!! You can't break the cabinet seals after the shipper loads it.. the receiver breaks them when i arrive just fyi. The shipper was a drop and hook

[@jk6854]

Preloaded trailers you get the surprise fail at the delivery. After hookup.

[@traumaman5150]

you still have the yard in Decatur indiana?

[@truckingwithrex]

Yes

[@TruckerKlouds]

Do you need a hazmat for tanker work at prime?

[@truckingwithrex]

No HAZMAT needed to pull tanker with Prime Inc

[@marcosrobertovieira9382]

Hello, I'm from Brazil, and I work with a tank trailer and I transport animal feed products. and I was curious to know what you transport because it is very similar to my work.

[@truckingwithrex]

I haul the same inedible feed products like eggs, digest, chicken fat etc… everything I deliver is used in some form for making dog food or dog treats!

[@marcosrobertovieira9382]

Nice. I carry supplements for animal feed, to fatten chickens and pigs. Rhodimet product. If the writing is strange, it's because I'm using Google translator

[@mura-moto]

@@richardconte381 many animals their stomach acid is alot higher than humans, so they are able to digest more ‘’volatile’’ stuff so to speak. (Old comment I know)

[@TruckerDoc]

How did you make your intro

[@truckingwithrex]

final cut pro and motion for logo animation

[@boudreauxthetrucker6694]

Hmm was it not part of your job to make sure you have what you need to do your offload?. Sure, someone before you can but thats not the same as just saying you messed up to. Lol.. i drove reefer locally and it was the yard jockeys job to fill tanks. I always checked behind them.. i will say i bet you never make that error again now..

[@mura-moto]

As Rex says at the start of the video: when he hooked up to it, the seals were already in place, so he can’t break those seals until he gets to the receiver, snd they give the okay to break em.

[@williamgraul4218]

Why wouldn't You go grab an Elbow off of 1 of the other trailers sitting there on the lot And since you're talking about CDL people aren't known what's going on especially dispatchers a good cd. I'll drive will have thought of that instead of driving all that distance

[@morganbrady2230]

What's the difference between food grade and non food grade loads?

[@truckingwithrex]

No big difference tbh, except working food grade you’ll run the northeast A LOT…

[@morganbrady2230]

@@truckingwithrex 👍.

[@fatstax8478]

Excellent video sir I think my fat ass might be able to do that job

[@rustybear793]

HOPE THE HELL YA GOT DETENTION FOR THIS SREW UP; MY GUESS IS IT WAS WHOM EVER DID THE WASH OUT DID THE PUMP AND FORGOT TO REINSTALL THE 90'

[@TheBigh68]

Is that not part of your pretrip?

[@truckingwithrex]

Nope, you can’t break the shippers seal on the back cabinet with a drop and hook

[@nathanpople396]

You also cannot drop a loaded trailer

[@gadoybuck2884]

pain in the ass in sub zero weather

[@Mr_eddiekennypowers]

Would a pre trip prevent this?

[@truckingwithrex]

No, the tank in the back was sealed by the shipper. After the tanks are filled and sealed by the shipper we cant break seals until we get to the receivers okay.

[@carlosmuro2013]

Someone didn't do a pretrip

[@dakotarussell1263]

Damn hope u getting paid for all the wasted time!

[@thehovermatic1243]

Truckers get paid based on mileage. All this other fun stuff is considered extracurricular and there’s no pay involved.

[@truckingwithrex]

Unfortunately not, is what it is. But this issue was on prime because the trailer was washed at the prime tank wash in Springfield (a new guy forgot to put the elbow back in the trailer)...

[@shelly-annsangster5508]

Ummmmm...that's detention pay AND breakdown pay....couldA turned into layover pay...empty miles pay ....weekly mileage expectation pay....all kindsa pay

[@chadpowell6015]

Man U don’t know what kind of truck a company driver might get. Sounds like ur saying lease driver are better then company.

[@truckingwithrex]

Nope.. Not saying lease drivers are better... I'm just another driver and decided to go lease because... I found out prime company drivers are forced dispatch and i was told I'd be put in a lightweight truck... Doing OTR I'm not driving a lightweight truck (too small)...

[@markdavis5942]

Typical mega carrier giving the run around with no clear guidance

[@primalsmash5801]

Nah, do your pre trip

[@truckingwithrex]

A heads up… Drivers are not allowed to break the seals on the back of tankers. This has to be done by the receiver you can’t just break the seals on the cabinet. Clearly you don’t know anything about tanker
