When picking up 3rd party trailers, always take pictures with your camera of the sides, doors, tyres, dents and any damage large or small. If they try to hassle you later for damages, show them the pictures with the date and time stamp.
@@ontheroad7097 also always always check the safety sticker on the trailer , I've notice Rental or leased trailers fall through the cracks and the safety`s are either expired or close to expiring
and even you do your tug test , get out physically and get under the trailer and physically look with a flashlight to make sure that fifth wheel is locked , reason is , I've hooked up to a trailer ,heard the pinning sound , did the tug test 3 times and started to move and used the spike to test the trailer brakes and noticed the trailer pulled away from the truck , what happen you asked ? all fifth wheels have 2 locking latches , in my case the 2nd lock didn't grab or lock , thank god i wasn't out on the road... and GENTLEMAN keep that firth wheel GREASED , I've seen so many drivers with dry fifth wheels , reason why you need to grease or maintain the grease on a fifth wheel , its a pivot point and its on of the critical points of any truck
Welcome back yousiff. Did you get coverage from your insurance for the trailer. Cause your insurance won't cover any damages to that trailer. You need an additional coverage when you're doing power only. That will cover any trailer that you pull with your truck.
Ahh - back to your enjoyable trucking videos. It would be interesting to know how and how long it takes you to set up your cameras given all the different views. Always interesting subjects - done very well.
Yeah fuel prices are way above the roof and load prices keep dropping low, especially in the Westcoast. Pulling your own trailer is not worth it just yet
Hey Yousif, I love your videos man. You inspired me to get CDL A license. Now that I got my license, I’m looking into flatbedding. How did you learn to strap your loads? Did your work for somebody that taught you how to secure loads?
Strapping loads is like tying knots....if you don't know knots......tie lots. You can never over strap a load....and keep in mind that your braking force is hugely more than your acceleration or turning forces...aka lash it so it can't come visit you in the cab if you get have one of those both feet on the anchors and using the wheel for extra leverage stopping efforts.
You don’t have to climb to the cat walk to connect the air lines. You rookie haha jk man Where did your find the power only load? Or is it worth it. I just bought a truck doing paper work now trying starting out with power only relay first then going from there !
So when you do power only and say get a dot inspection and there is a defect you didnt see how does one go about fixing that. Also what about if you have a blow out how does that work?
@@joshalex93 sorry was not clear. His “new” trailer from auction is likely used. I looked into auto inflate trailer tires. Still not sure how you set psi. But it sounds like it will self adjust? As tires warm, the pressure increases, so it reduces that? If system works for drivers?? Super singles might be worth it? But I assume it has to run thru exact center of rim? Truck I looked at has SS. Hope he got a nice trailer with lots of life in it. Online auctions can be deals….
@@larsharris I think Long Haul Larry has a video explaining how to adjust the auto inflation system.. Also, you truly never know what you are buying at an auction because so many are not honest
hello yousif i wrote to u before many questions but u not answer me ,,now what is the better to do power only or flat bed or dry van? pls answer me i called u on ur phone but not get ur answer,,thank u
That first fuel stop you made, isn't in Winslow AZ, I say that because I live there, and the only truck stops we have, is Pilot/Flying J and Maverick, and that wasn't either one of those. Glad your trying other load options keep up the great work.
People decide what they think will work best for them. Flatbed is often a under 50 yr old game. Realize a dry trailer you bucks the wind @ the same empty, or loaded. Empty the wind can really mess you up. Wind can tip a parked rig over. A rough wind with a low flatbed load is dangerous with box trailer. As a rule box, refer, grain…. Are less physical work. Power only often no touch loads. Flatbed imo or grain hauling is decent first job. Limited tight quarters backing. Refer, dry van. Every time loading, unloading is backing into a too small dock. Constant sliding axles, constant unhook, hook…

Your so f**** up you were right by my house , you were too good to call or call back when I left you msg I get the msg from you dude stay safe … don’t even know , why I even watch your videos lol stay safe take care man … I could of hooked up with power only paying $2000 using the trailer and taking it back to Houston n use it to haul loads but your too good to call back or even ask how anyone is doing .. yeah dude I gotta call you out ..

His lawyer or lover? And now you extend the disrespect to me? You talk like a cowardly man who had his feelings hurt because someone didn’t return your call. Get over it and wipe your tears 😭. Now I see why he didn’t call you back. You are a clown. Have a blessed day

Man you just keep improving your trucking company 👍 no drama or complaining.
When picking up 3rd party trailers, always take pictures with your camera of the sides, doors, tyres, dents and any damage large or small. If they try to hassle you later for damages, show them the pictures with the date and time stamp.
When you hook up to the trailer always do a tug test before putting up your landing gears. You don't want to drop the trailer. Peace brother.
Thank you!

bro you can do whatever you want, we watch you because of you don't matter which trailer you hauling
"Mechanical noise" on trailer is an airleak. Could even be a screw in a tire.
(Tank draining)
Oil leak on engine is crank case breather assembly

thank you for your help. I do have insurance for non owned trailers which will cover the power only loads
You had some awesome videos of Greece my man great stuff. I like your light kind videos.

Congratulations bro you doing great job. God bless you
Abdul is looking good!! Haha I’m glad you guys got to see each other on the road! 💪🏼
GO LADY! 😂😂😂 I’m dead!
Keep on trucking 🚚 brother and be safe out there 🙏🏽
Yeah fuel prices are way above the roof and load prices keep dropping low, especially in the Westcoast. Pulling your own trailer is not worth it just yet
i love flatbed trucking, i think its always challenging..
Great video...can't wait to see the new trailer.
Stay safe!
I recommend securing your truck Yusuf. I just got my truck stolen recently. If applicable by law arm yourself as well. Crime and theft is on the rise.
Yousiff
Good morning
On power only always take picture of the trailers , all damages they Will charge you.
Best REGARDS

Good luck 👍. Stay safe my friend. God bless you.
Nice work man your truck is cool inside. Will be joining trucking soon
Welcome back my brother drive save in the road

New equipment is always a blessing,used is always questionable

Where did your find the power only load? Or is it worth it. I just bought a truck doing paper work now trying starting out with power only relay first then going from there !
Hello brother happy to see you again
Saludos ánimo puro pa delante
Why did you go back to driving the blue truck? What happened to the white truck?
It was good to see you at the auction
It was great seeing you too!
Waiting for the trailer video 📹 👀
Who knows because that could change tomorrow!
Are you going to do a break down video of say 6 months of hot-shotting compared to 6 months of Semi trucking and the money made differences?
Try the Lucas fifth wheel lube, much better then normal grease
So when you do power only and say get a dot inspection and there is a defect you didnt see how does one go about fixing that. Also what about if you have a blow out how does that work?
Sounds like your 4 way valve is leaking or not closing all the way. Take care
so cool to run into your brother out there.
3:09 what is the truck in the background called as its definitely not a semi truck ??
More videos Buddy 👊🏿💞💯
I like to see that you put some grease on that fifth wheel
Hello. Yosef can u explain to me how much better if u driving power or ur own trailer thank u
Hi brother, I live in Ohio, please how is the trucking business in California? Thanks
Please get a new steering wheel or at least a cover - all those wear marks from the previous drivers is giving me major anxiety :)
what is your average MPG? Could you share what year unit, milage and what power train your truck has?
did you see where their was an earthquake in Greece like 2 weeks after you were there
How come your front license plate is mounted on the grill and not in the proper place
What’s your other Chanel ?
I suspect it’s not a “brand new trailer”. So the trailer tires are constantly topped off from air system? How do you adjust psi?
That's not his trailer. He's pulling everybody's trailers doing Power Only

Hey sir what kind of coverage you are putting on your trailer
That first fuel stop you made, isn't in Winslow AZ, I say that because I live there, and the only truck stops we have, is Pilot/Flying J and Maverick, and that wasn't either one of those. Glad your trying other load options keep up the great work.
Love the long videos
Bienvenido paisa time to make mo’money 😎
Gracias! Yes sir!
How do you deal with parking at truck stops after 5pm?
How you power only? Any app you use...
How’s that Melton truck holding up
What’s going to happen with the flatbed trailer?
You need work light
What is your travel channel?
Pretty good rate for power only. 3 days to get there?
Hey Salam brother Yousef.Muhammad Here.I have some problem to start hotshot driving.I got everything like trailer truck.but can’t find insurance
Did you try progressive? Your first step should have been getting an insurance quote
I did.they giving me insurance and everything.but not giving more than 500 miles from I live in upstate newyork
Crankcase filter leaking
So why did you decide to do flatbed? Seems like alot of extra work securing and out in the elements. Not mention extra risk
