Well done another great video. Don’t stop what you are doing they are great I like the way you explain everything you do. Being a retired heavy haul driver from nth Queensland I can’t believe how much the industry and trucks have changed in the last 16 years
Thanks brother 👍
Hey guys if anybody is looking for truck Vlog 1 I accidentally deleted it 😂 I will re-edit and upload it this weekend
Great vid ,, When I used to drive a grubby truck was ok but super fussy about keeping the windscreen clean 🙂
I remember as a kid I used to watch Donny Watson race v8s at Bathurst
Enjoy your videos specially the Inverell I come from that town are you loading out of the binderies beef great little town Christ it gets cold in winter.
I hear you there I was out there a lot last winter kept forgetting to take warm clothes lol
And i like watching them
👍👍👍
Another Awesome video. 👍
As you said, a clean windscreen would have been a good idea !! That part where you played the video in fast forward, sounded like you were in the Supercars race at Newcastle 😂
😂 that’s why I left the sound on old mate I thought it was funny haha
LOVE IT MATE. Keep doing just what you are doing.
The first F 1 truck ever. I would love to hear more.
Haha that’s why I left the sound on mate thought it was funny 👍
Realy good video. I done my last 2 years of school at Inverell. Now retired and live North Side of Brisy. Keep the videos comming, and stay safe out there.
Cheers mate I’m in Inverell as we speak will be in tomorrow’s video 👍
yep same, good vids so keep doing what you are doing!
Cheers mate 👍👍
Ahhh the climb up the gap. It's been 10years since I was on the hwy. I used to run 3 per fortnight Melbourne-Brisbane & loved every minute of it until it was over policed & it become to much.
I can't believe after 10years they still have those containers there just near the top.
Great videos! I loved the time-lapse at Inverell where the Cummins sounds like a Formula 1 racer! 😂. Subscribed and was one of the ones who got you over the 1k line. Do you ever watch Bobby on the Ride-along-gang channel with his live streaming? I guess going live in Australia would be pretty scratchy everywhere else but maybe the Hume.
That’s exactly why I left the sound on in that time lapse mate I thought it was funny 😂 thanks very much mate I haven’t seen him but I’ll check it out
Great videos mate! Love the drive up Cunningham’s gap from Brisbane
Cheers 👍
Thanks. Happy New Year
Great 👍👍👍👍🇦🇺😊
This takes me back retirement had me missing the road
Onya Ken. Cannot wait till I get the ding that you have sent us a new video. I used to find the trip across the Hay Plain boring, then thru Rankin Springs and West Wylong, then I watch how easy it seems sitting behind the wheel with you. Safe Drive.
Cheers mate thanks for watching 👍
Stumbled across your channel.. really enjoyed it so clicked the subscribe button.. hope there's more to come. Cheers
Cheers mate next one will be up Tuesday 5pm 👍
Love your videos, one of the best trucking vids I've seen hope you get heaps of subscribers, Thank you
Cheers mate appreciate it
Just found your RUclips channel, love your content! Cheers
Cheers mate 👍
keep it up bro nice video's 👍
Thanks mate
I remember going up the gap first time in dads 1418 first gear took me 18 minutes ffs.
Great videos! I worked for the company that paved the lot next to your yard
Was that recently mate?
ONYA Mate.
Found your channel today and started watching. I'm not a truck driver, just a retired office worker but always enjoyed long driving trips. Have a few mates that do drive interstate trucks though.
Seeing the roads from a truck can is so different from a car, and most cat drivers have no idea of how difficult can be especially with traffic and morons cutting in front of you.
Next time I'm going through Aratula I'm getting one of those Eggs Benedict in a toasted Turkish Roll - looks awesome.
Anyway, keep the videos coming. Don't know if you've done one on the truck itself but would be interesting with a run-down of it and engine/gearing for different roads and what the dash gauges are.
Most car drivers are good mate but there’s always a couple bad eggs 👍I did do a full truck tour this week but I had to delete it to make space for the two vlogs unfortunately
Found ur channel by accident enjoyed ur vids have now subscribed 👍👍
Cheers mate appreciate it I’m filming the next one as we speak
Just found ur channel, brilliant video looking forward to the ne, t one
Cheers mate next one will be up tomorrow night 👍
I like the long videos mate but yea try different things see how you go

Thanks mate appreciate it for sure I’ll put more footage of fuelling up in the next one no stress
I love it bud can U show more loader bars and loading and stuff it would be interesting
I will when I can brother I can’t always film 👍
Yooo as soon as I saw the don watson i knew he was going to the abattior hahaha. I used to work there!
Gotta love the smell hey 😂
Another cool video bro. Yep, Aratula is a good place to get a feed. I do like the scenery when you are driving during the daytime. Take care bro.
For sure I always stop there. Thanks brother appreciate it
❤❤
Hey mate love the content
I’m a HR license holder
And looking to one day drive road trains and b doubles
Do you have any tips for new drivers ?
Or any advice for anyone that’s considering a HC license or MC licence
Anyways thanks for the awesome content
Definitely got a new sub
My only advice would be to give it a go mate It’s something I’m gonna talk about in the next Vlog 👍 cheers for the sub
Just subscribed great video, how do you like the auto trans I 'm guessing it would be very nice in traffic. 👍👍
Yeah mate for sure it’s not as fun as a manual but it’s so easy in stop start 👍
Great Video and how the hell you can drive with a Windscreen like that i will never know.
Hey mate, what’s the black bar with the flashing lights on the dashboard?
Loving the vids mate keep them up!
Cheers mate it’s a guardian system basically dash cam butt faceiing the driver
Were the legs off the ground when you hooked up and did the tug test?? And b doubles are 26m mate, you’ll get knocked off if you’re 27m
I went to school with young Don his dad stated out with livestock trucks they owned the shell servo beside the high school the whole family where lovely people.
They still are mate thanks for sharing 👍
@@crossfamilytrucking Young Don got killed at Bathurst his wife runs it now I believe. i have a school mate that still drives for them
Not a truck driver but enjoying your videos! What do you listen to on the long drives? Podcast? Audiobooks? Music? Cheers mate keep the videos coming
Comedy podcasts and a lot of Luke combs 👍
Hey mate, awesome work on the videos. If you get the time could you do a video on the process of getting to an MC license in Australia? Maybe with your personal journey and experience from first getting your MR/HR. Cheers mate, subscribed. 👍
Too easy mate I’ll talk about it in my next vlog it’s pretty straight forward
@@crossfamilytrucking Thanks man, I've got an MR from years ago and no recent experience, so it would be cool to hear about the process. I've been watching American truckers and you popped up in recommend and the two vlogs have me hooked, keep up the good work mate.
I was in the exact same boat man I had my HR for a solid 2 years before I used it then upgraded straight to mc. Good to hear the algorithm is doing it’s job hey thanks for watching brother
@@crossfamilytrucking That's good to hear, I wasn't sure how many more steps there would be to MC. Looking forward to the next vlog man. I'm in north Brisbane so if there's any trainers you'd recommend for the upgrade it would be much appreciated
Definitely give Brisbane truck school a call bro they’re awesome to go through I’ve done all my truck licenses through them. They will tell you what license you’re eligible for I’m pretty sure for MR you can go to HC then MC
Please explain A trailer to b.i haven't got my head around it yet
I drive a truck also but in the USA so I understand what you go through but I would like to visit there one day
We all love it the same brother! Good to hear from you
Much better view of the road and the dash with the head strap
Cheers mate
hey brother , awesome video thanks ! any chance you can upload the next one higher definition ? 1080p anyway have a good one
Yeah I just checked I accidentally exported it in 480 brother haha oh well I know for the next one cheers
@@crossfamilytrucking thanks mate , looking forward to the next one
And to add to the first comment wash ya windscreen please 😀
😂😂
notice you use gladhands for air hook-up, while others use quick-release connect, which do you prefer? transmission is really shifting smoothly, is it an Eaton? having worked in uk&& Canada as a mechanic interested in comparing the truck models cheers
Hi mate glad hands seem to get the job done pretty well not sure if I prefer either tbh yup transmission is a Eaton 18 speed ultrashift it’s an automated manual they’re not very smart transmissions if you let the computer do all the shifting they don’t like gradients and they can’t decide what gear to grab when really heavy that’s why I only drive in manual and click it up and down it works really well
Really enjoy your vids mate. But for the love of god, clean your windscreen.
Trust me mate I clean it once a day that’s just what the highways like 😂
Good video mate. Question if you don't mind.
I've been driving rigids for a few years, live in Brisbane, got my MC in October last year. I've been trying and trying to find a job just driving singles as a start which is sending me BONKERS! Any chance you know where I could get a start?
Try cold calling some mobs mate that’s how I got into my job hope that helps 👍
@@crossfamilytrucking No harm in trying I guess, safe travels
Awesome video, can’t don Watson put a microwave in the trucks for you legends. Stay safe out there
I’m sure they would if I asked nice enough lol there’s enough of them in truck stops and usually most kitchens are willing to heat up food to not need one. Thanks mate appreciate it
How do they pay you guys there in Australia? In the US it’s typically per mile you drive, percentage of the truck’s weekly revenue, or salary. Also curious what the average wage for a driver there is?
We have a few different ways of getting payed here too mate. Our company pays trip rate which is one fee per trip but there’s also kilometre rate and hourly too and most people are payed hourly rate to load and unload
I thought the outside lane for that size vehicle is a no no, it is in the UK
Not here mate 👍 unless it’s sign posted no trucks in right lane we can use it
@@crossfamilytrucking I yield to your knowledge
So what do you reckon about the Scott's Transport fiasco?
I think it’s sad when companies go under mate but hopefully they come back better 👍
what load did you drop of there at Inverell ?
Just empty pallets mate then loaded beef 👍
So brother I got mc while I was there on holiday moving back home from Canada next year how hard is it to get mc job with only single experience ? Around Brisbane
You shouldn’t have any trouble mate plenty of mobs looking for workers 👍
@@crossfamilytrucking Better then freezing your arse off in -50
Hay brother how many ks a week you racking up
Hey brother roughly 4-5 thousand I’ve never sat down and added them up I’ll do it for Vlog 7 Wednesday night 👍
Just stumbled on your channel. Good stuff. Hey do you know the homeless trucky, another youtuber who drives for lindsay? Maybe you’ll bump into him and do a colab?
Happy truckin brother🤙🏾
Yeah mate he’s another one that made me want to start filming love his content I have been on the look out for him because we travel the same roads I’m sure I’ll bump into him some day
Your dirty windscreen was giving me major OCD. :D
😂😂
What’s the money like over there bro, hourly rate, nights out ect ?
It’s different for everyone bro, and our changes as well depending on how many kms a trip is etc so hard to say a specific number.
@@crossfamilytrucking 👍
