Respect to all you truckers. Thank you for being great professionals, and for delivering the goods we all need and want. I sincerely wish I was younger and in better health... And Tiki, "lessons learned are like bridges burned; you only need to cross them but once." Best wishes rolling forward, man!
@@amejia3305uuujjeggtt I'm a year and change into prime, and I feel prime has taken care of me every step of the way. The training is rough don't get it twisted, but those who make it are rewarded.
I-5 is my old stomping ground’s. Couldn’t tell you how many times I’ve been through the grapevine. I was primarily Cali, Nevada, Arizona and Utah. Glad you’re back in the saddle.
Shout out to you Tiki been watching you since your Schneider Orientation when I saw you in Chez's comments. Glad to see you land on your feet your an A-1 dude with how you handled everything!
Maaaaan I’m glad to see you back!!! You’re a good dude and it’s good to see people like you doing what you love to do. I’m heading out with my trainer this coming Sunday with TMC and I can’t wait to hit the road. Take care and l look forward to seeing more videos.
@@tkgayle7208 So far so good. Of course there are good and bad days and I hate tarps but I love it when my tarp jobs look good lol!!!! The money is there to be made for sure. I’m 11 weeks in.
Dang thought you was going to do otr bummer 48 otr the best thing I did I love it from Columbus I like running different state every time my favorite highway is I-77 in West Virginia and Virginia specially at fancy gap so beautiful hope to see you driving there one day
You got a solid attitude bro , i did training at Wilson but stepped out before getting my license. Really might try again one of these days, trucking always been a dream of mine
TIKI! Welcome back, brother! Psyched to see you back on the road doing what you love (and with your family in this one). I’m currently finishing up week 1 of Schneider’s CAT program here in Texas. Drove the truck for the first time today and logged my first 22 (safe) miles of my career in the city. I’m absolutely loving it! I owe you a big THANK YOU because you were a part of what inspired me to take the leap and get into trucking. 🙏 Stay safe out there.
My homeboy got some regular mini fridge, it's pretty big though and it's lasted him the year, I'm jealous he fits so much food in there he never has to eat out or find a walmart
What’s up Tiki ! I don’t comment much on anything but I had to comment… I absolutely love your energy and your channel so much ! I’m 19 years old & I live in Indiana… I started school on the 14th(yesterday) to get my Class A CDL. You give me a lot of inspiration and I really look up to you as a big brother. I have wanted to drive a truck since I was 15 and I’ve had my mind set to driving a truck & since Indiana changed the law to 18 year olds being able to get their licenses im pursuing my dream. I will only be able to drive locally and I won’t be able to drive across state lines until I get a certain amount of training hours and then I can go out on my own but for now I’m going to drive locally because i have a daughter on the way. I’m going to get my experience now so when I turn 21 I can get into a better paying job and I’ll feel a lot more comfortable driving as well. Today I took my tests to get my permit and passed them first try and man am I excited! Thanks for the great content that you have and you’re going to have a great future ! I hope you & your family stay safe and have a great year ! Schneider missed out on a great driver and great human being ! Much love !
get your endorsements! so you can do more later on in life. tanker, doubles and hazmat. get it now so you can make more money. trust me companies will want you and they will teach you!
@Dont Worry I’m not going to for sure look into that. My brother sent me an article about it but I’ve talked to a few companies and they said that I have to be 21 so we will see what happens when I get out of school !
So glad to see you back out! Been subscribed since 100 subs, you inspired me to start this journey with you. I finish CDL school this week, and start with my company on Monday!
Dude, congratulations!! I'm excited for you, that's freaking awesome! I'm glad you took that leap of faith into the industry. Now get out there and kill it!
Glad to see you out on the road, company I work for laid off virtually all of their OTR drivers (#CompanySuicide). Glad to also see everyone coming together and happy to see this channel post fresh videos again...
Awesome to see you back on the road, glad you found a company you seem to like. Just wanted to mention you said something about a Walmart fridge on the truck not being a great idea, however, I've never had an issue and mine have lasted at least a year before any issues arise. Only difference is had mine Rachel strapped into place maybe give that try if you don't have a different solution
Congrats man!! I'm super newbie (got my CDL 2 weeks ago new lol) but I really want to join a small family company but like you mentioned so many are 1099 and I'm just not about that. Hopefully a W2 one will come up. Until then I'm applying with an Amazon freight partner just to get my 3-6 months exp.
Got my cdl when I was 18.. got 3 years of dump truck experience then went to a local driving job.. MDI. They are amazing. Home everyday, 90k a year, pension, Health, 401k.. love my job, been here 6 years now..
Glad to see you back in the road. Looking forward to you sharing your new adventures with us 👍🏼 You’re driving up my old stomping ground of I5. I’m originally from Washington State so I’m quite familiar with that scenery. Brings back good memories especially now that I’m living on the east coast.
I have read that videos of 15-20 minutes length are ideal as long enough to tell story but short enough to not take too long to watch. Hopefully you have or get an actual truck GPS as phone is good for assisting but not as primary.
Eeeyyyyyyyy Tiki!! Bro, I'm so glad to see that your back to trucking and back to vlogging. I found your videos the day you got let go. Love your content my boy.
Good to see you back bro,you and Bobby. It was crazy what happened to y’all but I’m extremely happy you guys are back in the trucking industry and supporting yourselves and families and me personally as a driver I’m actually a fan of long videos
Super happy you found a family to drive for👍🏽I just started local driving with CRST and they are the worst🤦🏽♀️ I was supposed to start at 6am now they moved me and another new driver to 10am and now it’s moved agin to 12. They operate of seniority and sucks to feel like your just replacing any spot that’s missing. Can’t wait till I can get more experience and move on!
Great to see you back, and that you seem to have found a good company. Wish you the best of luck with it all. One thing I am noticing in this video though... You need to watch your passenger side mirror more often. It may seem superfluous when your in the right lane, but you just never know... ANYTHING can happen on the road, even on the shoulder. I once got passed by a BMW who was driving in the ditch just to get past me...
@@Thatpnwtrucker I had noticed the same thing but hadn’t mentioned it as compared to some other drivers who have head mounted cameras, you’re not looking right as much as they do. Yes, your eyes might go right but a bit of head rotation seems needed based on those others.
Ur an amazing guy with a happy family and a amazing personality.. I watch Ken v's videos (vinàles) he's saying prices are double for trucks and the like.. gas is super high.. I hope ur being financially safe.. good luck! May this hunger administration pass..
I agree 100 % i wouldn't be able to team drive... the times my wife drives my truck or in her car im alwas alert like i don't know .. not that i don't trust her just that i don't know.
I agree with you about the team driving thing, that's why I chose the route I did after getting my CDL to join PFG, I can't sleep in a moving vehicle on a road trip much less a truck 🤣
I would park at a truck stop and then ask after. trucker path near places around you. most people aren't okay with semis. Western states can be rough. make sure you plan your routes, stay on as many interstates as you can!
Tiiiiiiikiiiiiiiiii! My brother I’m so excited to see you back on the road and it sounds like you’ve landed at a good company I wish you and your family all the luck in the world sprinkled with my usual sendings of love! Looking forward to more content from you and following your journey Love you Tiki
I have to say the same thing i can not sleep when someone else is driving i quit my training 2 weeks ago because of it. Love these videos man and grats on the new job!
What up Tiki so I’m new to watching your videos. I’m not a truck driver I’m a guy who always wanted to be from the time I could remember. I remember I use to pretend I was a trucker talking on a CB in this old truck that didn’t run. But for whatever reason I never did anything about it. Just worked in warehouses most of my life. I’m 55 now so it’s too late for me to start now. Anyway, I’m here in Puyallup and did I hear you say you live in Orting? No big deal if you don’t want to answer but thought I’d ask because I was curious. Take care. And stay safe.
I tryed a few family ran companys b4 and totally got screwed.Payday was like pulling teeth.most often excuse for not payment was I had family issues and can't cover pay roll...Well here's the keys n good day..Watch ur 6.b safe.peace
That’s right Welcome back to the league my boy remember God’s good and he got everything under control. Look at me I got my own truck back in September and unfortunately my truck broke down in October long story short my truck still at the shop waiting for the part I’m working for a mega carrier for the moment until I get the call that I been waiting for .. Hey man but trust me I don’t know you but freaking happy that you’re back be safe out there 💪🏻💪🏻👊🏻👊🏻 #it’s_tiki_time lol 😂
Welcome back Tiki! HEy real quick, Ive been very interested in getting my CDL very soon, what is the transition like? Mostly with being away from family for exteneded amount of times
My experience. First week was alright. Second week I was starting to feel it. Third week I was ready to go home. The trainers I had were both awesome. I went with a regional home weekly and sometimes during the week.
Some tips for you as you build the channel. Do not use a body mounted camera. Use multi cameras and edit your voice over the video. In the event you are in an accident, a plaintiff's attorney can say you were distracted driving.
So I've had my CDL A for 1 week now. Any advice on how to go about getting work. The MEGA carriers don't pay very well and I have a family to take care of.

Not a driver but based on all that I have read and heard, the bigger the company, the lower the pay as there’s more overhead.
