  • Hello everyone! This is a particular stretch that I've been planning for quite some time now, and what a better time to do it then the first week of snow for this season!
    We've just been offloaded at the Springville, NY Lowe's and we're on our way back to Hagerstown for our next run. Got a lot of miles to cover and the days have only been getting shorter, so let's get going!

      For the most realistic experience, they have a Cummins X15 engine, mine is 425HP. My truck has an Eaton 10 speed, the newer LTs have Eaton 12 speeds 👍

    I appreciate how your video is simply you driving in your POV. I have looked to other videos for a POV like this, but they have skipped most of the driving, shown parking mostly, and been full of talking. It’s very neat to see what it is like! I’m curious, what would you say are your favorite and least favorite parts of the job?

    • @LifeintheHammerLane
      @LifeintheHammerLane  Месяц назад +1

      @@nickthenoble4895 thanks so much! I actually have the same opinion as you, before I got my CDL and that's what inspired me to make the channel.
      Favorite part about the job, flatbed especially, is the sense of pride I get at the end of the day. There's a lot of work that goes into flatbed, where maybe a fifth to a quarter of my total work time is spent outside the truck between securing and unsecuring. Ain't nothing more prideful then a super complex load that's strapped and tarped cleanly.
      Least favorite part of the job is how we are treated: Be it from other cars on the road, or from the companies we work for. We face a lot more adversity then a lot of people seem to realize.
      Here's a story: Just today I was turning onto I26 near Charleston SC, and traffic was backed up to a crawl. As I was turning right onto the ramp, two cars came flying down the state route from the center lane going straight, made a hard right through my blind spot and very blatantly cut me straight off and I had to slam the brakes hard to miss them. Fully loaded, almost 80,000 pounds. Things like this happen literally daily and it gets very exhausting.
      Another one was Baltimore, going from the 695 bypass to 95. The lanes merge down to one. And after the lane ended a sedan came FLYING up on the shoulder and pushed me into the outside wall to get in front of me, only to stay there for the next 5 minutes because of traffic. They came within inches of quite literally killing themselves. As they passed and I looked, they had an infant son in a booster seat in the car. Again, I can't stress enough that this happens daily. This is why a lot of truck drivers act very ruthlessly against cars, which you probably have been victim of at least once. While I disagree with their actions, it's very hard not to sympathize with them as a driver myself.

Well, once I build up the courage I want to make a video about how I was very unfortunately severely taken advantage of by the company I worked for in this video, then chewed up and spit out. I don't think I have that courage yet but I hope to some day soon. Time will tell, if you stick around I'm sure you'll be here to see it. Thanks for stopping by!

      @@debbiebjorklund3241 welcome! When I worked for this company I would haul pretty much anything you find in the lumber/building material section of Lowe's from the DC to stores. I'm regional so I'd be home every weekend and wouldn't go too far. Even where I'm at now I don't go more then 10 hours or so from my house. Now I do steel and aluminum mostly coil hauling with chains and all that but the same schedule for getting home. Nowadays I use my whole 11 hour drive clock pretty much every day.

      The bridge is probably 14' I'd hazard to guess. Our trucks cause they're flatbed our cabs aren't 13'6 tall so I never really even come close to bridges besides when the cargo is taller. Don't quote me but I'm 90% sure our cabs are 11'6 tall.
