    To most people that want to be negative and tell me my Pre -Trip was terrible. I performed Maintenance on my truck the Day before I recorded this video. If it’s such a big deal I can show you guys what a real pre-trip looks like in the next video.

      I drive a Chevy Sonic as my daily, it get 38 mpg which is important since my big truck sits 58 miles from my home and I have to drive to it daily. I do the same thing, park my little car in the space to hold it for my truck when I get back in the middle of the night. We park at a little diner.

Some are great and others suck. It’s a part of life. I’ll do what I can to accommodate them but I won’t hold them on a pedestal.

    My dad use to drive. I remember he brung my brother and I one time and he left us inside the truck , inside a building, with no ac on. Im 37 and was probably about 25-30 yrs ago. He was hauling coils of steel to Murray Ohio in Lawrenceburg Tennessee. I still have a love for the smell of diesel. That is some of the best sleep I've ever had , in the bed of a truck.
    Edit: it was mid summer when he left us and we literally almost died.

      Callahan Talks they have more work hours than any job and now they’re being denied working extra as well. The trucks are extremely expensive to maintain and it’s getting worse with these new unreliable semi trucks, and old trucks getting banned in some states. Considering all the money they have to put in, no, they don’t get much back. Company workers have it worst I think because they don’t make their own schedule, and get paid a lot less. In the end it pays off because they don’t wear down their own trucks but the freedom isn’t there. You also don’t get to come home often. They regularly take trips that last more than a month.

    You go from smart car to truck! That is amazing two totally different rides! I don't think it could get anymore different! The turbo on the truck is nearly bigger than the cars engine. You should line the car and truck up at the front get a picture! Just for size comparison! Also cleaver how you leave the door open so you don't reverse over it.

    - Overall outside condition of truck and carriage (don't know the exact name in English, not a native speaker)
    - Truck and Carriage coupling
    - Brakes
    - Lights
    These are the main points which I used to check before trucking. European trucks are different so these American style long beak trucks are a new thing even to me but I really like the simple old school style of these trucks because you can get to the engine super easily, with European trucks you have to tip the whole cabin so that you can check the engine which is why it's checked rarely.

      Edit:I go on trips with him sometimes since I was 4 so I kinda know but I’m not a trucker but wish to be for some time then be railroad engineer for Union Pacific bcuz I love trains and trucks but yeah I go on trips and he does long haul like Denver Oregon,places far away buts it not your typical 9 to 5

    America in a nutshell, 20 seconds on the road and already being tailgated by a princess truck who doesn't know turn signals exist.

    Seem like the type a dude I would sink a few tinnies with mate. Cheers
    for the video, I drive Heavy Rigids here in Australia and love the
    lifestyle, love riding motorcycles and love the road. As someone else
    said it is interesting to see you driving a smart car. Cheers for the
    upload. Subbed.
    EDIT: One question, this a shared truck through a company?

    So from the very, very limited experience i have with trucks, im gonna base all of this on a (i think) 2019 Volvo.
    1. The soundsystem is ridicuolously good. Like, better than my BMW´s Harman system-good.
    2. without a Trailer, they feel insanely zippy for their size and if you get on it, it honestly sounds amazing.
