    Hey Man, love the vids, lots of great info. You've living the trucking dream, driving that wonderful pete, running for Landstar. I really enjoyed your vid about your trucking career, you sure busted ass to get where you are now. Hope to be in the same position one day, took 3 layoffs and lost my career, dad was a driver so always been around it. My brother and I went to trucking In January, and we both drive for a Canadian Mega carrier, paying our dues till we can either go Owner/Operator or Get on Turnpike Doubles. Keep up the good work on the vids, all the best!.

    When you talk about moving the 5th wheel or sliding the tandems to change the weight profile - does the rig drive different? Do you feel any difference the way it handles? Thanks

      honorarly insane the trailer is air slide, once you push the button at the rear you can pop it back out from inside the truck.

  • @samo8204
    @samo8204 7 лет назад

    I'd like a tour of the inside of your truck. How deep are those cubbies above your visors? Also, when I order my truck, I'm going to order an A.P.U. also. How about telling us how it works and what's it cost to operate overnight compared to idling. How long it takes to pay for itself. What kind of upkeep is required Etc.

    Why do some truck trailers have the wide single tire, instead of this duel tires?

  • @kobi4012

    Did you see a older pete 389 blue and white truck with 2 color blue's on the trailer

  • @gdtruckern7632
    @gdtruckern7632 7 лет назад

    What dose the tire sound like if it is bad or say low on air ?? I seen you checking them with a hammer thanks. I like your videos it's really help me out alot.

    • @kingofnone
      @kingofnone 7 лет назад

      you can't really tell inside the truck, especially not on the trailer tires. and these tires get filled to 100-110 psi so even if it doesn't look like it's low it could still be sitting at the 60-80 psi range.

    • @LifeisGood2018
      @LifeisGood2018  7 лет назад +2

      Doug Norris it produces a different thump, and if you notice all thumps sounded the same and after thumping for 17 years you learn the difference between a 100 psi and 60 psi and I stick all my tires with a gauge every morning during my pretrip inspection, trailer tire are auto inflate, so you can't check them with a gauge

    • @caliarmyguy
      @caliarmyguy 7 лет назад

      Life is Good. To be fair you can check the auto inflate ones with a gauge. It's just a pain in the ass. If you pull the hose off the hubcap you can put your gauge on the end of the hose to check your tire pressure.

    • @LifeisGood2018
      @LifeisGood2018  7 лет назад

      caliarmyguy yes but there is no need in doing so, it's preset and even has a idiot light on the nose of the trailer letting you know air is flowing

  • @cevans0974
    @cevans0974 7 лет назад

    What do you consider a good haul rate? Does your type of freight pay by the mile, by the load, by the ton mile?.I live in the middle Georgia area i haul liquid asphalt from Lithonia Ga to Macon Ga, I charge by the ton mile i am just curious how your freight pays.Stay safe out there.

    • @LifeisGood2018

      SFtruckerWolf normally I will only haul it for the rate or if that's all that's moving out of a certain area.

    What are the triangle things on the back of the trailer?

    • @LifeisGood2018
      @LifeisGood2018  7 лет назад

      AJ & Ned placard holders for Hazmat placards that identity what hazardous materials is inside the trailer

    • @danpriest9317
      @danpriest9317 7 лет назад

      I believe he may actually be referring to the vortex generators, but I was wrong once before. If that is the case AJ & Ned, they are used to streamline airflow, and thus, decrease fuel consumption.

    • @LifeisGood2018
      @LifeisGood2018  7 лет назад +1

      Dan Priest and they are a waste and eyesore and will eventually get removed, when I'm ready to deal with the glue residue

    • @danpriest9317
      @danpriest9317 7 лет назад +1

      haha. So about as useful as I had imagined. Kerosene does an excellent job of dealing with glue residue in my experience. You know, if you ever find the time to mess about with the things.

      shy no I don't, I only shot a video of my truck while it was new and added it into my channel that only had 3 subscribers, the plan was just for my keepsake library and then the channel took off, so here we are, producing videos for some reason.

    That's weird that customers don't require seals on all loads. Maybe it's different from reefer loads

    • @LifeisGood2018
      @LifeisGood2018  7 лет назад

      Shay Earl reefer loads normally consist of food products and all food related products does require a seal and lots of various freight requires seals, you don't see my sealed loads because how could I show you my load if it was sealed, so there's no point in going back there.
