I'm not and never have been a trucker, but after watching a few of this young man's videos, I think that this is what a REAL trucker should be, and is all about. This guy should be a mentor for all new, or any trucker, out there for that matter.
No matter what the content is it's always a pleasure to watch. Love the way you take pride in your ride. Keep those wheels turning and the diesel burning. Love from Jamaica
My dad drives a 1988 kenworth t800 with a 350 Cummins and cleans it every weekend and when people ask why he says, DOT stays away from the clean trucks for the most part because that represents a well maintained truck
As a female trucker I feel bad for having not even the 1/2 of your stuff 🙄..."Right now that's all I've got"?! 😜 Unfortunately what I've needed most was the jumper cables to charge semi's batteries from the reefer at 1am ourgh....a nightmare... You are a great "ahead of time cook in case you'll be hungry"! I'm giving you all credit👍
I drove tractor trailer for UPS for 41 years, both local and sleeper team. Good video, air hose grommets....one of the most stolen items off trailers. Running cross country I carried most of what you have. Check out my photo to see the wreck I survived. Partner was talking on his cell phone and ran us into another trailer at 75 mph.
I always carry a small tarp and rain gear because some people dump piss on the asphalt. Nothing worse than laying under trailer and realizing piss is everywhere. I also carry airline stuff in case I rip a line in log truck
Awesome videos! Used to ride with a neighbor who trucked livestock as a kid and miss ridding in a pete. your videos are awesome keep up what your doing!
Thanks for maken these videos. I am a railroader, furloughed and all i know is haulen freight. In these times with my work history, i am turning to trucking to support my big family. I dont know many people anymore but its cool to be able to see these videos from people like yourself, thanks a ton. My familys life has been turned upside down by the state of the country. I am going into Roehls driver program to get my CDL, wish me luck.
Great video!! Also air hose that hooks to the glad hand. Tire pressure gauge and car wash soap and a water hose when you find time to wash!! Truck safe and looking good!
Brother if You are Ever in Florida in The Daytona Beach and Sanford and Orlando Area and You Need Anything or Help for anything Part's Place to Stay a Ride somewhere Something to Eat ANYTHING Please Let Me know Would Be More than Happy to HELP You Becareful and Safe Driving on the Roads Take Care Brother Enjoy your Trip AWESOME VIDEO!!!!
At this point, my company spring ride volvo tractor is primarily held together with zip ties, duct tape mechnics wire and a prayer that it all holds together another trip. God i needa new truck 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
forgot the peice, shifter hi\low air hose and the seals,brass things. some times you'll spring a leak in those little hoses, need to fix that or you'll get a ticket and more. can't shift with out air.
I am as far from having anything to do with trucks as possible. I don't even live in the US and having said all that, I am hooked onto this channel. That's the mark of good, simple & honest content. It reflects who you are. Best wishes and respect. Keep 'em coming.
I did have a CDL but I have farm deferral plates I pull three 40 footers when I move hay or just a 53 foot stock trailer when I go on the freeways or highways. You make truckin look fun man me and the old lady have always thought about trucking just to see how it is but the Pete sleeper cab we have on the farm is not big enough haha. Love the videos, you show the road how it actually is.
Just bought me a 2015 Peterbilt 567 today, taking my second shot at running under my own authority, excited to fly out to Utah to pick her up! Love your videos man! Gotta grab lunch when I’m on your side of the country.
Great content you Learn something new from others perspective I made a quick list of the things you covered that I don’t have, also noticed a couple things you didn’t mention that have gotten me out of a pickle, air hose with glad hand connection, tire gauge and a tire plug kit helped me one time at a scale house I also keep a overall set and pumice for washing my hands in case I gotta crawl under the truck thanks again for your videos
@@donarmsdealerone669 i did pass today. It was suggested I dont take my endorsements til the day I pick up my CDL license, cause if I fail the road test, it would've been a waste of money.
Being an owner operator I have enough stuff to just about rebuild my truck, I built a custom cabinet in the bunk for stuff like filters, gaskets, and lights and just small parts and added an extra toolbox on my flatbed just for my big stuff like bottle jacks, 1 inch impact, 100 foot of air hose ( always add a fitting to one of your air tanks to hook up air hose to so at least you can air a tire up, or like me change a tire yourself). I got anything you can think of to rewire anything. Now company drivers aren’t gonna have that much but when the repairs come out of my pocket I’m not gonna call somebody that I can do myself. But you carry way more than any company driver I’ve seen. ALWAYS USE A ZIP TIE TO TIE A SPARE KEY UNDER THE HOOD. I’ve had to break into my truck through the dog box and fold the mattress up to get in. Done that once and never again!!
Yeah i need a good wiring set with all my extra lights im always having problems no matter what ill heat shrink the but connectors and die electric grease all the fitting and something still happens. One night i lost all trailerlights in the middle of Chicago at 9 at night and while getting loaded i was changing the main plug on the tractor im the rain with shit tools so i could make it back out it sucked lmao
You can probably get a discount on a camera gimble from watching youtube videos by Adventures With Purpose, who is often sponsored by a gimble manufacturer. I don't know which of their videos has the promo code, but it's the most recent I've seen that has a chance of still being good as of the time of posting this comment.
New to the channel. Love your work. Curious why you haven’t shown your engine. I was an engineer at Caterpillar’s Engine Division in Mossville Illinois and was hoping you have Cat.
Brake cleaner for cleaning hands. Lol. Awesome. I don’t have brake cleaner in my work shop. Different trade. But I do have kerosene. And it makes a great hand cleaner. Dissolves most crap.
Thx for the tips! Yeah it's amazing how much stuff you might need on the road. I've bailed out my share of strandeds because I carry j cables. Looking forward to seeing the swag. Over n out.
Stumbled on your channel this week and have watched several videos and I gotta say all the content you put out is top notch. Very impressed how conscientious you are about safety and keeping your rig equipped, clean and tidy inside. Glad to hear in this video you might be working with Bunker Branding for your merch as I've been a fan of Demo/Off The Ranch for a while. God speed and stay safe. P.S. I subscribed to KoolKing Logan.
I’ve literally just gotten my cdl permit, if any body need help with there test study the dmv genie app. I can promise u I’ve seen the same question and answers on there.
I think the thing I like the most about this channel is you can tell this guy still puts the grind above the clout. No long rants talm bout sponsors, like and subscribe, and follow my patreon. Brief words and straight to work, just like everybody else here. No bullshit. We work all day long, and we don't watch these vids to hear some dude rant about his channel, we watch these vids to gain perspective from each other, for better or for worse, and this guy fulfills that.
@@High_strung Nah I get it man, the money's gotta come from somewhere, and I wouldn't do any different. There's a reason why every content creator ends up with sponsors. It's not a big deal, we watch youtube channels like this because it shows us that even though we do different shit we're still the same folk. Ads and sponsorships make it easy to forget that but at the end of the day its still true and we all know it
Can you show us the inside of your Truck like if you keep extra food or water on hand just incase you're somewhere that you can't get food and you need it. Just wondering and Thank you for all the videos you put out... Drive Safe.....
Another awesome video and I LOVE the mullet. Hells yeah. You are not only prepared but very organized. Love your channel and wish you much success with hitting your goals. Stay safe brotha.
Bro I watch whatever you put out!!!! So don’t worry about content!!!! Being as prepared as possible will definitely keep you rollin and making that money!!!! Looking forward to the “High Strung “ merchandise!!! Keep living the dream and we will see you on the next one bro😎✌️
Great content man. I run regional freight and enjoy watching your vids in my down time. Would you consider doing a video of the things you keep in the cab of your truck? Cleaning products, books/paperwork etc? Also maybe do a video about the specs on your truck/what you have done to it and plan to do in the future as well?
Thank you for the video keep up the great content bro thanks all the way from Los Angeles I do local work right now but makes me want to go back to over road 💯🙏
I’m about to go back OTR, couldn’t make it local plus my wife is getting on my nerves so I’m bout to hit it running like forest gump. I need to document my experiences in my Chanel as wel.
Am I the only one that kept pausing to write all this shit down?!?! Lol. Great vid man. Love the channel. Take my CDL permit test soon and start school right after. Will definitely be saving this vid. Much respect bro.
Graduated school last Thursday I’ll be on the road beginning of the week hope to see ya on the road love the truck I’ll have one like that someday soon I hope! c’mon
Smart man! You gotta load for bear or when shit goes sideways you're sittin on the shoulder with the clock tickin not turnin wheels. I carry all kinds of stuff. Used to pull intermodal so I learned quick to bring stuff with. If you need it once you'll need it again
I take my CDL test (air breaks, drive, and skills) on November 2nd WISH ME LUCK! Please! Love your channel
Good luck!
I have passed my tanker, hazmat, and doubles and triples endorsements tests.
So next is air drive and skills...
Lol I'm super nervous
@@donarmsdealerone669 if you going for it all work on getting yout twic card too.
Good luck. If you prepared, you'll do fine. :-)
Hopefully you love driving and traveling if you don't you won't enjoy it. Money comes when you work hard for it.

5:45 "always make sure your rubber is good" aye aye captain. That was advice beyond trucking explains the chuckle.
saves you money both ways that advice goes xD
I would definitely buy a hat that says High Strung on it you should have it as a snap back with the cursive font thats on the back of the truck...
My dad drives a 1988 kenworth t800 with a 350 Cummins and cleans it every weekend and when people ask why he says, DOT stays away from the clean trucks for the most part because that represents a well maintained truck
Great inventory!
I didn’t see a plastic dead blow hammer!
Great for whaling on something that you don’t want to harm or mark!
The rails in the trailer are known as, The E-Track System
Once you get it don't mess it up throughout your lifetime. It's like gold take good care of it! Be safe!

Damn. You’re ready for anything! Can you do one on personal needs / inside cab supplies. SHTF?
Just about to roll past the truck wash exit 94, not stopping today going to rain at the track tomorrow, be safe.
I completely agree on the zip ties. They’ve saved my ass countless times.
Awesome videos! Used to ride with a neighbor who trucked livestock as a kid and miss ridding in a pete. your videos are awesome keep up what your doing!
