    Pulling doubles was pretty cool! I wouldn't mind trying with a 48 and a 28 at some point! Comment if you have experience with some crazy doubles setups! 🤟

      I pull a 53’ with a 42’. Definitey need to swing wide but the rear trailer follows pretty well

    Just got my CDL two weeks ago and I start at Pilot Thomas pulling doubles and I got a road test before getting hired. Looking up tips and tricks for myself 😂

      Thanks man! My current company kind of put a road block on the videos, but I'll do what I can

    Just word of advice when dropping your tail trailer before you pull forward lock your glad hands to the mounts in the basket and you will never loose air. Or cut off the air supply from your lead and bleed the air and let it free wheel. But since you just starting connect your glad hands to the dolly basket and you will be OK. Stay safe out there and keep the rubber side down.

    You mentioned how the set of doubles and triples
    Will will follow you
    If you get a set of doubles or triples
    Will start whipping
    Apply trailer brakes
    Power tractor
    It will straighten

    I work out of that Penske yard for us foods. That was Rodney hooking up his sets. He pulls them to Topeka, KS. They will pull double 48s and triples with a 36,32 & 28. Those trucks that park on the end are incredibly annoying. They have a serious parking problem there. I met your replacement a couple months ago. He needs to learn to wear deodorant.

    Just got hired on as a combo driver for Old Dominion which means I’ll be pulling doubles. I’m so excited but so nervous. I’ve only ever pulled 53s

      You'll be fine doubles pull and ride way better than 53 ft trailers

    I’m about to start pulling doubles. Which do you think is easier between that and 53?

    • @t1truckin
      @t1truckin  Год назад

      Doubles imo is easier

    • @t1truckin
      @t1truckin  Год назад +6

      Doubles are easier to turn, but of course you can't back into places with them.

      Doubles pull and ride way better than a 53ft Trl. Been with with FedEx freight for 3yrs

    When you are pulling doubles do you back one trailer at a time ?

    • @t1truckin
      @t1truckin  8 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, you have to unhook the set to back them in anywhere.

    Pulling those doubles must have felt awesome. Almost like operating a train haha. I hope you do good with the new company man! Btw did it feel a bit scary driving doubles at night?

    • @t1truckin
      @t1truckin  Год назад +5

      The doubles are definitely a lot of fun! It wasn't scary, but a little more stressful versus daylight, but I got it done! 🤘
