[@davedunehew7779]

Tim, love your videos Thank you.

[@mikehoncho658]

When I first started watching you only had a little over 2,000 subs, now 22,000 congrats man you make great content

[@LifeisGood2018]

Mike Honcho crazy isn’t it, thanks for watching 👍👍

[@Saskbuckoutdoors]

You da man. Wish all professional drivers were like you. Have a good holiday and looking forward to your next video. Hamma Down

[@wesgh9579]

It's great to see a real pro such as yourself, doing it right and enjoying it!! Keep up the great work and stay safe..

[@johnnyfair]

I hope you don't change your technique too much ha ha. I see some of these trucker channels are all about the techno music and time lapse travel. personally I would rather hear you ramble ,keep them comming, thanks driver!

[@LifeisGood2018]

John W no no, thought I would show more from point A all the to B with backing and loading, but after these next two go up next week, I’m scratching that, way to long of a video 👍 and thanks by the way for the compliment and for watching

[@redkrawler]

John W the rambling makes the video unique and good.

[@user-uh9lg9wg1d]

Love the vids, you always have great advice. Your yrs of experience is a benefit to us viewers!! Appreciate ya

[@hotrodhog2170]

147k and just getting broke in! Prayers for anyone injured in those accidents!

[@raymondbradley6788]

Tim that's wonderful news. Seems like they might have got around that debacle Cummins anyway. What I'm hearing is plastic freightliners and things of that nature having hell with that system. That is good that the X-15 setup is set to go that far. Like I say she seems to be running strong I think she just broke in. She's a beast.

[@johnm.evangelis693]

Thanks for the great video Tim, enjoy your vacation!!!

[@LifeisGood2018]

John M. Evangelis Thank you my man

[@RHINO457]

Good Morning, I do like to hear that large car running, keep up the good videos, and stay safe doing it.

[@LifeisGood2018]

RHINO457 my rhino 🦏 is a 672, was once a 686 👍

[@ckeasling1177]

Get off at exit 161, hang a left back over the big road, take the first right and it'll bring you to the wildwood exit(169).

[@markhorton9020]

The world would be a better place if everyone drove with some sense , keep up the good work Life is Good

[@Grimm_1911]

Mr Tim I’m very glad to hear good things about that X15.... can’t wait to get mine in August or September

[@RHINO457]

Bill Mack I remember well, the open road show, that was WBAP AM. Good times, come on

[@moneymker6276]

Don't forget to give her a good bath!! Be safe!!!

[@Harley04]

Excellent video as usual, focus on safety aspect much appreciated. I'm pretty sure here in Australia, 4-way flashers are only meant to switched on when the vehicle is stationary and to show it may be a hazard eg. stalled. Never heard of anyone getting fined but I'll have a look.

[@user-uh9lg9wg1d]

Good morning Tim, be safe out there.

[@LifeisGood2018]

Jason K always and thanks for watching

[@melvinwilliams5660]

Taken care.your equipment..and rolling safe..come on...everyone in a hurry...holy smokes....prayers for safe driving....another safe.delivery..equipment intact...

[@BurtBartlow]

I just pulled my 37 foot rv from va to ok with my one ton dodge and there was no end to the stupidity. I just kept back and gave them room and made it just fine.

[@brunsonpowner8925]

Specially in bad weather.. snow and ice and they’re zooming along

[@johngeritrightbell4528]

At 7:46 on the right side of the screen, what where the 4 flying things???????

[@MikeSmith-gg1jl]

Have a safe trip home

[@KB-gs8zi]

Sir Tim !!! If you remember the ""ol"" mt eagle road,,,it was pure murder if you lost your brakes !!!! There were banks on both sides of the runoff ramps on the Eastbound side !!! KEEP IT SAFE !!!!!

[@ernestdougherty3162]

Thanks a lot hope you had a good Fourth of July and it was a safe one enjoy your vacation see you on the flip flop

[@LifeisGood2018]

Ernest Dougherty has a relaxing fourth, hope you did as well 👍

[@silverspur8387]

Absolutely...following distance and you have to create space between yourself and other traffic, which you can simply do by easing into and out of the throttle... Of course, people are always going to take advantage of the space you create mainly 4 wheelers...you cannot follow close in a big truck, but I see it all the time...

[@lincolnklee]

I am seeing more and more truckers using their phone without hands free and not paying attention, or hugging the line and squeezing you out when you pass them. On my way back 96E from Grand Rapids back to Lansing and on West bound a car went under semi trailer all the way back to the back seat, not looking good. Everyone is in a hurry and on the phone or texting. Our 911 posted on FB that your kids were texting more than anyone, I said wrong, he needs to ride high in semi and catch, radio ahead and pull over their parents and older not the young. yes some are but I see more their parents age doing it, the new drunk driving is texting. Love your videos.

[@waynesworld2086]

Dammmmn lol, the intro to this video was funny

[@Wayne-wl8lw]

The amount of accidents is ridiculous. 22yrs and I've never hit anyone, had a few 4 wheelers do stupid shit and hit me. Grew up with my dad driving. He started in 1980 when I was 7. I'm really glad I got to experience it back then and its really sad to see how truck driving has gone down the toilet. You get alot of drivers being thrown out on the road without hardly any training and all they do is race and don't give a shit about anyone but themselves.

[@DennyWygant]

It's legal to exit an intersection on a red light, just can't enter on red. Nice video once again. Stay safe out there.

[@kellykonoske91]

Funny. Spent 35 plus years driving truck out here in Oregon and Washington. Same thing exists and always has. People can't be behind a truck! No matter how close their exit or driveway is

[@raymondbradley6788]

Good day Tim. I have a question what does Peterbilt recommend for cleaning the DPF filter on said model of truck like you got. I've been reading a lot of horror stories about those things plugging up. I was just wondering cuz I know it's going to be in back of your mind. The old girl seems to be running quite strong though so was just a thought. Have a good day.

[@LifeisGood2018]

Raymond Bradley they claim 500k on this new system 👍

[@MrPizzaman09]

Does your 389 have disc brakes?

[@The_JEB]

Hey Tim, quick question for ya. At some point I want to get into the truck driving side of the industry, but first and foremost I want to be a heavy duty mechanic, i want to go through the ropes of that for a while so I know how to repair mostly everything, so I guess my question for you would be, what is your opinion on purchasing new vs used in terms of truck? New I know you can customize to what you want with it, but if for instance I find a used truck that meets my needs would it be a good idea to buy the used truck if I know I can repair/overhaul it? A big thing I really dont like is to have to rely on someone in order to keep my wheels turning, I know I can rely on myself, even if its to at least diagnose whats wrong if I happen to break down on the road so I dont get roundhoused by the repair shop.

[@LifeisGood2018]

Justin Bechtel I’ve discovered that this new Truck is cheaper than a used truck, it’s the down time plus labor that gets you, in your case it would be the down time, so from now on, I’m keeping new, plan on selling this around 300 to 500k miles and start over 👍

[@The_JEB]

Ah ok, thanks for your input. I take it Peterbilt's warranty is actually respectable and they fix their stuff?

[@Dinoxt12]

Appointment Times... has to do with a lot of these semi-truck accidents .

[@jimmybeasley6008]

We just bought 95 acre of land near Newport. How far is that from you??

[@screamindemon811]

Man at 4:20 that driver passed you like you were standing still, crazy! you get busted at that speed, your assail be ina sling and if your driving a company truck good luck keeping that job and getting a new one. Not to mention the fuel that going that speed is burning

[@Roc900]

Looks like Gary Indiana

[@graygryphon2008]

The more I watch your videos the more you make me want to bite on a new W 900 near me and get back on the road. You're killing me.

[@LifeisGood2018]

Bill Blair I can’t help it, it’s like a bad virus, just watch and keep resisting 👍

[@glasswinder]

Question? I see a lot on FB saying a lot of the truckstops are taking down our flags. Is this true?

[@jimsloan8549]

Do you use Rain X?

[@deadfox852]

That light wasn't red ;3 Also I think either I'm channeling you when I drive or it's the other way around because I say the same thing about the car's having to pass us to get to that exit ramp, still got there same time but Nooo had to go around us to get there lol SMDH Doubt you heard of it but If I ever get the chance to Meet ya I'll show it to you But it's 3 4 wheeler's on the side of the road Pick-up with a Car under it and a third car on the shoulder smashed from the side I think everyone was ok in that one though. Hope you had/have a good vacation see you on the flip side.

[@LifeisGood2018]

Tiny Fox vacation was great, hope you had the fourth off and stay safe out there

[@adambrunt7290]

The guy at the beginning was a cornball

[@Harley04]

This is the target audience, so welcome!

[@TexHoss1]

Yeah cornball is putting it lightly, lol.

[@LifeisGood2018]

He took the time to submit the intro, where is yours! Send it, I’ll post it, if it’s clean 👍

[@hotrodhog2170]

Have to agree with them Tim. The guy driving the truck sounds like a yankee trying to imitate a fake southern drawl. Not real good at it Lol. He should submit another intro just being himself.

[@bigboatfun]

Boom!

[@LifeisGood2018]

Kevin R Hanson 💥👍🏆

[@davidschabel7832]

Enjoy your vacation, I had a big cat dozer went down mt eagle in 2nd gear, never touched the brakes, that is the difference between the 400 cummins and the X-15, pull toy told you that.

[@LifeisGood2018]

david schabel times have changed 👍

[@ابايذيدبابكر-ض1ب]

hi sir . late bater than nothing sorry abut that . love it have agood day

[@LifeisGood2018]

ابايذيد بابكر glad you made it 👍

[@尺乇几丨卄]

That sure is a goofy looking fella on that intro 😂

[@raymondbradley6788]

Tim I think a lot of these drivers just don't know any better. I mean you're pushing 80,000 pounds down the road you got to respect that equipment and that weight. Somebody pulls out in front of you or you blow a steer Tire for God only knows what you're not paying attention you can do it a lot of damage real quick. You always have to leave yourself an out. People can get killed real quick.

[@tpjkgj]

Mr. Tim are starting your own fleet?

[@LifeisGood2018]

Tito Quest someday, just need a person for office work and another truck, hopefully in the spring of next year

[@tpjkgj]

I think you'll be very successful, I've been driving since 94 and I'm half way ready for the big step of owning a truck but need guidance and a mentor

[@raymondbradley6788]

You might find JB Hunt the ditch down there are flipped over one of the two idiots man. Posted speed limits there for a reason.

[@campermike8879]

Companies are so hard up for drivers all it takes to get hired is a pulse

[@LifeisGood2018]

CamperMike that’s the truth

[@robertl.fallin7062]

can't think of one valid excuse for rolling a truck.. Good teachin going on here if folks listen that is..

[@LifeisGood2018]

Robert L. Fallin they don’t listen and thank you for your vote of confidence 👍

[@Robasteerjock51]

Mr. Tim, we travel in our Motorcoach towing a jeep. 65ft long , . you are right.. revamp the trucking industry. Young truck drivers along with stupid and no common sense 4 wheelers are a bad mix. The new driving hours have created havoc at the truck stops with everyone fighting for a stopping spot at 5PM. than watch them try to back into a hole is beyond funny. Are you the only one left that knows how to back up a semi? Anyway thanks for your professionalism and sharing your trips.

[@LifeisGood2018]

Rob A it is definitely a struggle out here keeping my hood attached to my truck, thank you for thinking I can backup, I still have my bad moments, stay safe out there on your travels and I will see you on the next one 👍

[@truckerj1952]

I don't get it neither and I see it everyday these truck drivers tailgating cars or another truck I just seen a bad accident not too long ago

[@diesel379x]

Just passed you in Georgia on I 75 come on

[@LifeisGood2018]

Kendrick Salley and you didn’t even wave 👎

[@diesel379x]

Life is Good. Actually I did wave and yelled on radio but I figure you busy having a idiotic rambling episode.

[@TexHoss1]

That red light was the 1st mistake you ever made, right. Still waiting on the 2nd one, huh.

[@LifeisGood2018]

Eddie Hubbard I’m watching now, I can’t remember if I ran a light or not, I will get back to you on that one.

[@richdouglas8969]

empty July 5th Omaha? ??? who's next

[@texansandcandy9217]

Stay away from lease purchase programs, a very few are worth doing but most are trash. Why pay 5-6hundred a week when you can pay 14-15 a month on a truck with 0miles.

[@I.P.Phreely]

Cheap freight and not enough experience.

[@378pete]

They don't make a pill for stupid
