I'm glad I missed the snow while I was in Tennessee.
Take that hater to the Train Station! 😅
I was wondering when you will be coming back, Orwell looks lonely every time we drive by 😂
@TruckingTogether I bet. I ran a local today. Tomorrow I load for NC.
You know what, when you own a trucking company and you work hard and your stuff is paid for you can do whatever the heck you want. Martin, we bought a 2020 Peterbilt almost identical to Tiny. We’ve learned a lot and enjoyed watching your videos. Keep it up!
I’ll take Martins opinion everyday. He’s the real deal. Most mechanics should have the knowledge he does. Keep up the good work and try to ignore the haters they’ll always be jealous of a REAL person like Martin
You guys are in such a great position. No debt, own a house own 3 tractors have lots of toys and you do not have to go to work right away. Just my estimation that 90% of owner operators out there would love to be in your position. Being a pavement pounder of days gone by I know what it takes to run a truck, then you learn how to run that truck efficiently and you got to learn how to make money with that said truck. Just fuel up an empty 300 gallon capacity tractor and watch how fast 1,000.00 shows up on the pump. Not 60 like a car, 1,000.00. Not for the faint of heart. You haven’t even started your day yet and your 1,000.00 behind already. You blew a tire last night, another 300 to replace it so now your 1300.00 behind. Now add insurance, and if you have payments add that also. Man. Now your 1,600.00 behind. Got to eat that day and now wear and tear on the tractor. Kind of looking b like 1,700.00 behind and you have not made a dime today. That happens everyday so for Martin and the million dollar smiley girl Alice to be parked out of debt. Own three tractors and your parked putting on the bling. Wow guys, yehaaaawwwwwww. It’s not easy living the life of an OTR driver, nice to see you guys doing it in style..Have a great and a safe day , happy trails to you. Nice to see when you look in your mirrors the scenery is not changing….D…
Thanks for another great video safe travels
Keep fancy in my opinion since it's a Manuel and sell tiny since it's a automatic and u might have a better chance of selling tiny because most people can't drive manuel
Cover is a hassle to get off so I put posts under hood . One set on each side. You can jump or be jumped from either side and not have to take the cover off.
Lmfao I love that you hit it with “The More You Know” 😂😂 that was hilarious
You are living a life well planned. Congratulations!
I hope everything is OK. Looking forward to your next video. Come back when the time is right.
I'm from Kentucky and you are right about that
install jumper lugs to the back of battery box no more step removel
Have fun and keep bringing us along. Thanks
If Martin is a "google mechanic" he has one fast processor! The knowledge ive heard come from this man while doing the work he is doing, your NOT finding that on google! That's experience! Hope you guys have a great rest of your week. Thanks for bringing us along.
That’s why I keep a battery tender on my 1984 W900. It will died after a week. Can’t find the draw.
Keep up the good videos!
I love you guys calling out the trolls 😂 Keep up the great content, I look forward to every release
Martin would never want to sell Fancy Hawk. That's his link to being " old school cool".
Heck no never argue with martin the man's always working on his own equipment if anyone should know it's him it's his equipment and really don't think he would be doing it to his own trucks if it was wronge
Martins Mechanical knowledge is top shelf
Exciting giveaway congrats 🎉 James!!
Another great video guys, Martin sometimes you just can't convince people once they have it in their head, too stubborn I guess. We do all our own maintenance on our trucks and always, always do valve adjustments on cold or at least ambient temp engines, never never hot. Hope you guys are enjoying that nice break you deserve to benefit from all your hard work. We sure don't do that enough in this business.
Hey guys I’m just waiting to see the next video Take Care ❤
Thanks for another great video!
Gr8 Episode of TRUCKIN 2GETTER!!!!!!!🎥📹📽🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊😎📢📢📢📢📢📢📢📢🇺🇸👍🏾🙌🏾
A wise man once told me …. Never argue with an idiot !! They will drag you down to there level and beat you with exsperience !!!…..
Enjoyed the video. Have a great day.😊😊😊😊😊
You know the saying Martin, you can argue with a smart person and you can expect to win or lose, but winning an argument with a stupid person is damned near impossible.
It’s always the right time to put chrome on your money maker!
Crazy trucker his name fits him well lol. 😂
I love my ZenEclipse shades for my 579 with the exception of the suction cups that come with them.
Good to see your family enjoying life! Good video. What I like about Wisconsin springs is you can go motorcycle riding one day, snowmobiling the next and then back on the bike by the weekend … 😁
Seems like adding APU’s nigh be a great option for you guys.
Fancy has one
That was a really Cool ending. Lol.
Wait Trucking vlog❤
doesnt hurt to have a spare if its paid for
Martin should invite that valve lash guy over and have him adjust his valve lash on his hot engine and see how long it works out for him!!
Where are you too at please come back im in retirement and I miss your video
Hi guys, love u both..hubby and I have been watching y'all for awhile...we were originally from CA also..right now we're looking to get our truck leased on somewhere...anywhere......I hate this process..gotta go make some money...hope to see you two out here...:)
it’s tough out there right now - get more no’s than yeses these days
Yes your right...but we're not quiters...we will find something...God's speed kids...:)
@@susanperry5428 strong believers in what’s meant to be will be, you’ll find your carrier they are out there ❤️
not sure where you are out of now or what freight you want to pull but if you wanted to share maybe we or our viewers can give you some suggestions
@TruckingTogether hi guys, thanks for everything...we are sitting in Texas, got an rv lot in Arizona, and our cdl is from another state...we're pretty much open to anywhere and anything...thanks..:)
Crazy trucker you could learn a lot from Martin he's one hell of a mechanic and a great truck driver. And Alice well she's a beautiful lady and and a great truck driver as well
Was kinda kool to see my name up on that wheel. Too bad I didn't win. I really wanna get a set
I think that guy who tried to argue with Martin must of been a politician in their former life... as they tend to think they know everything, LOL. As always Martin and Alice, another cool video... good luck to you guys in your endeavors.
Martin you got to start every two days to keep the batterys charged
Love the fact that Mr. You’re adjusting valve lash wrong used “loosing“ instead of “losing”………I’ll take the John Daley Google Mechanic for the win thank you 😂
yes, thnx for the speed editing. you taking “your” time is fine by me, please don’t read o deep on my comments . i enjoy your show . Alice you caught me that yea . trucki’n aint easy.stay safe
Hi Alice and Martin
Omg can't believe I was the first one. Lol darn could have been a winner 😂😂
Looks like your getting much more snow than by me, SE Wisconsin.
I guess it’s good I didn’t win because I bought a set at MATS! I love ‘em. They’re great!
Congrats 🎉
You deserve a break, enjoy your time and get your house and vehicles in shape.
Hi Martin do you have or thought of putting in a battery disconnect so you dont have a battery drain from sitting for piriods of time ?
Hi Alice didn't forget about you hope you all are well.
Hey Martin's no Google mechanic! those are fight 'n words bro! @truckingtogether
Damn I guess I should move to northern Wisconsin all that we had in Detroit was Chem-trails during the eclipse. 👍
Like mama always said you can’t fix stupid some peoples kids
Good rainy evening y'all guess I'm running behind today
Y'all take care be safe looks like a lil snows headed y'all's way
Could you give us a update on Greg's truck. Is it holding together for him. Thanks
update is coming soon
Hi Martin and Alice i trust your knowledge over someone who has to Google it. If I was in the market for a truck and I lived in the states I buy a used vehicle from you because your knowledge and understanding of how a truck should run and be driven. I know you'll make the right choice in the end. Can't wait to see you guys back on the road again thank you for all the vids you put up so far. Bye for now take care cause we care❤❤
Phfft what does the Cummins manual know. Engine has to be above 250° and over heat light needs to be on.
On a serious note. I guess Josh from Adept Ape is wrong too. As when he did my overhead on my CAT. Truck had to sit over night to get below 120° to do a proper overhead. But what does he know?
You could add posts like that to the w9
Someone got told on. 😮😮
One can have many " heated debates " but try to never argue. Take it from my brother and I. 🤔😮😯😖😖🤯
I was up in the Fox Cities for work today. Drove by the Chrome shop twice. Did NOT see a white Ford in the lot. 😂😂😂
how about a red KW? cuz we were actually there today 😂
@@TruckingTogether Can’t say I was looking for that. LOL! I was by there about 9:45 and then around 11
@@mitchwinder1204 we didn’t get into there until this afternoon lol
Tell them how it is 👍
To bad the "hot valve adjustment" guy comments are gone on the last video. Was curious what shop he works for so I can recommend it to no one lol. Common sense isn't so common anymore.
I kinda suspect that he self destructed his comments because I doubt TT would delete them. It’s better for the RUclips algorithms to leave ridiculous comments there so they generate more activity. That’s why on another channel, he often pins them to make sure they get seen and responded too by his supporters!
@@JohnHallgren Oh I agree I’m sure the poster deleted them not TT!
Definitely wasn't me either
TBH it's more fun watching Martin/Alice play 'whack-the-troll' than having one of us mods smite it.. 😉
Keep the KW!
When you guys moved, what was the process for getting your license changed over to your new state? I just got my Class A CDL ( in a manual ) 2 weeks ago. Maybe someday we'll see ya on the Rd somewhere.
we just walked in and said here’s our proof of address and our old licenses and change it please. Some states suck like California and make you redo all your written tests if you move there, WI didn’t care.
Hello Hey Hi and Howdy Y'all
I would have put all the user names into a spreadsheet, sorted them alphabetically, and then put them into spin list thus making removing non winners much easier and quicker!
No you don't need to sell one, you need to add one 3 is just not balanced. What you need is a "project" cabover in red to balance things out. Everybody is doing it these days. DON'T BE LEFT BEHIND. Everyone over here agrees. HA😅😂
Clearly "crazy trucker" does not know what he is talking about. Sounds to me like he is the "google mechanic".
Great job martin, you handled that with tact and professionally. And fancy just wanted some attention, after seeing the other trucks get so much attention lately, 😁😁
Crazytrucker's Uncle daddy showed him how to do an overhead...Mf'er a cricket now!
Why do you store your drill bits in the step? That makes no sense! You should look into some kinda drill bit storage that's actually made for drill bits! Freaking California people I guess!
Keep the Kenworth. Sell one of the Peterbilts.
I guess that Martin enjoys making crazytrucker2376 look so unintelligent because Martin hasn't blocked him from making comments on the channel. Cool move Martin. 😎
Martin, why even acknowledge people who haven't got clue about what they are talking about?
You can't fix Stupid!!!!
Why don't you all wear seats?
When y'all hitting the pavement.
I'd keep the 3rd truck for a spare it's paid for
90k spare seems a bit excessive lol
Hi
💙💙
Chrome will not get you home. You should just ignore the shade tree mechanics
🇺🇸✌️🇬🇧
Congrats on the win! Where do you live wink wink jk 😆
You guys truck anymore or just got a new truck parking lot
listening must not be your forte’
@@TruckingTogether what does that even mean. I have watched you guys for very long time. Just wondering if your going trucking again or has this channel just turned into a how to channel.
@@BrianHelbert I literally talked about it, Not my problem you can’t pay attention or comprehend what I said regarding it
@@BrianHelbertok, so listen again to the couple of sentences at 15:08 where going to work is discussed.
That’s what was meant by their reply.
Actually, start at 14:38 for the complete answer as to why they’re taking a brief break.
@@JohnHallgren thanks stopped watching at that drawing they did
Well I didn’t win but I did get my name in the video 🤣🤣
Yup! You were the second loser but getting mentioned for something like that is at least a positive.
@@JohnHallgren true that lol
Look really close and you see my name flash by 😂
@@patrickobrien1826 yes, and I used 1/2 speed to catch mine there…
Well that's not good
Haha! I don't even adjust the valves on my lawn mower hot. Why would anyone do that anyway. Might burn yourself.
Taxes are voluntary not mandatory
you sure about that lol
I'm just here to improve your algorithm.
I'm definitely not here to critique your transportation activities.
I'm here for two things.
To chew bubblegum and improve algorithms and I'm all out of chewing gum
👍👍👍👍🇺🇸
Congrats to the giveaway winner
(No spoilers, watch the vid to see the name)
😉😉
they still haven’t claimed 😬 if they don’t by tuesday night we have to come up with a plan b
@TruckingTogether Haven't checked through for new messages in the last 24 hours, but have you tried 'pinging' them in comments here, or in the original vid comments?
@@ozcavalier they were tagged in the original video. not sure what else we can do, youtube doesn’t let you access contact info
@@TruckingTogetherI just added a comment to James’s entry post so he might get another notification. Maybe if oz did it as well and/or then you did another one?
@@JohnHallgren he responded this morning so we have our winner! He drives a w900 also :)
How much was your place how many acres is it
New lesbian coat?
no, that’s his everyday coat
Ha! Love you guys ! Stay safe ✌️and Grease
Special Shout out to Justin,JT and their Families for all the Informative Videos
I think you’re maybe in the wrong channel for that comment…
🫵🙌🙌🙌🫵
Rigged
You know what's the use of having a child called trucking together if you're not trucking it should be called together heck fancy was sitting so long the batteries went dead
that’s a weird name for a child
Well heck we don't see you guys driving truck moving loads all we see is your day-to-day things come on now
@@jasonhubbard1038it’s not a driving channel it never has been. it’s a channel about OUR trucking business and OUR journey. Go watch Just Truckin’ I hear he has trucking footage
Well I guess I will go watch his channel well you better tell Martin to put that fancy on the slow charge so don't go dead anymore cuz if you guys are not going to haul freight anymore you want to just sell the whole lot of them have a good day
@@TruckingTogether 🤣😂weird name indeed😂
You made your money from selling your house in California, nothing else
Wrong. House sold for under 500k we didn’t make a ton off of it as it still had a loan on it, the money we did make went to get this place here. I’d look more at the money we’ve worked for and saved over the years. But you think what you want there buddy 👍
actually it’s so funny to me that people simply cannot wrap their minds around the fact that some people don’t live paycheck to paycheck and actually save/manage their earnings. And by the way, we still have a good 100k sitting here that’s not from the house that we could live off for the rest of the year if we wanted to do so AND STILL HAVE MONEY LEFT OVER IN SAVINGS. We were dirt poor for years, we worked hard AF to change that so we can live the life we wanted.
You guys really don't need to explain your personal lives to anyone! Especially assholes that think they know you!
You don't need to explain yourself to anybody!! I could never do a You Tube channel , everybody is a CRITIC.
@@rich-mp6dm for reals.. it often makes me not want to do a channel to be honest. IDK some people need to get a life I guess
