Great video, as always!!! Looking forward to your wife being back on the truck. She is much better to look at!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Good that they found that tire issue before it blew out traveling down the road! Stay safe out there!
Haha me too she gorgeous, can’t wait for her to come back in the truck. She always does amazing cooking being the greatest wife and mommy to our kids that’s for sure 100/100 woman I got lucky 😃 yeah I saw the break on the wall earlier in the morning before the pretrip and I told them about it and they circled it and add me to the tire bay list at 10pm to get it swapped definitely wouldn’t be fun if it blew up that for sure. Take care thanks for watching as always 😀
dbl clutch, Ron I really enjoy the ride along with you on blogs-- your meticulous record keeping on log and phone to dispatch is phenomenal , Keep up the good work. Love the driving views as well. stay safe my friend
Thank you very much I really appreciate the kind words and feedback I do it for you all to enjoy 😀 I’m glad it’s helpful and informative and detailed. Thanks for watching and the support take care 👋
Let's roll driver. Safe travels, my friend, did the shop find out the overheating issue .man the new tire deal never ends. I'm glad they cought it before it blew out on you ✌️🇺🇸
Hey 👋 I appreciate it, no they actually didn’t have time to get it looked at since they were fully booked up, might have to try again soon. I always monitor the temps it’s high but I’m making sure it’s not going too high where it may auto shut off to prevent damage to the motor. The tire was weird I didn’t hit anything. They told me they see them like that quite often especially in the high heat and heavy loads 🤷♂️ thanks for watching take care.
Hey brother it’s the oil cooler over heating so I got it swapped out and now it’s way better stays way cooler on cruises even in hot temperatures. It’s wierd that it broke or went bad since its a 2024 brand new truck with 60k miles 🤷♂️ stay safe out there hope you’re don’t well running it solo 🙏
Very interesting video, you do such good job of taking us along! Geez, that tire cracked that bad already? Just curious, where are those tires made? I hope not China, here in the RV world we call Chinese made tires 'China bombs.' I just replaced Chinese tires on my RV with American made Goodyears. Safe travels and tell your wife I said I'm looking forward to seeing her back on the road with you.
Thank you as always 😃 yeah I’m not sure how it cracked they told me it’s from the heat which idk how I didn’t hit it or curb it. But it’s Michelin tires I’m not sure where they’re made at though 🤷♂️it may be from china. Thank you 🙏 wife will be on board shortly 😀 take care.
How long was the cdl training program at Prime before you started getting paid. Do they offer any payment or assistance while in the program? Do you need to have a good amount of money saved prior to going training to make sure bills are caught up back home.? Any help or knowledge is appreciated, as always awesome video!
Hey brother how are you doing, when you come to prime during the first phase which is psd they give you a $200 loan usually that can take 2-3 weeks till you get cdl and move on to the next part of the training which is the psd phase where now they lowered the required miles from 50k to 40k with a trainer and during that time you get a guaranteed of $900 but you can make more than that depending on how much you drive and it’s $900 before taxes. I had money save and put away before I left to come to prime just for family and bills my wife was pregnant and on maternity leave so saving was important. Hope this answers your question and also prime pays for you ride to prime your hotel and meals are also provided daily breakfast lunch and dinner.
@@RunningOTR just what I wanted to know. and I’m doing good man thanks for asking, excited about my journey to go OTR. you have been more than helpful my friend can’t wait for the next video and to one day see you on the road.
Are foods that should require refrigeration always on a refrigerated truck? I’m a big Amazon shopper and refrain from ordering some things online during the summer…..not food, but other items that shouldn’t be in a 90F truck or post office.
@RunningOTR why Prime drivers quitting ? Low pay. Pushing drivers to train new drivers and pay them with your income too. That is Not Right 😎😬💰🚫🚚🚛😎🤦♂️
@@jamesschaffhausen4466 yup that’s the reason plus the freight is very cheap it’s so bad out here and they also adding the cameras in the truck plus truck payments too high and yes when you train someone you pay with your paycheck 🤦🏼♂️
No all their truck run 65 unfortunately for fuel saving and safety they say. I usually run 60-62 to save fuel and put more money in my pocket weekly 🤷♂️
I’m not sure it’s all preference they have different brands I use a garmin otr 710 and I love it been good to me. In my opinion I would recommend a garmin gps either the 710,810,1010
Enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing.

Good morning brother.
Every time you mention DEF, I’m happy that I don’t have any emissions on my truck.
Good morning sir, yeah def sucks and it’s a damn waste of money that’s for sure. If I ever get my own truck I’ll do a ghost def delete.
Hey Bro, did they figure out what the issue was with your truck running hot?
Hey brother it’s the oil cooler over heating so I got it swapped out and now it’s way better stays way cooler on cruises even in hot temperatures. It’s wierd that it broke or went bad since its a 2024 brand new truck with 60k miles 🤷♂️ stay safe out there hope you’re don’t well running it solo 🙏
