So many videos out there talking about the 2021 Freightliner Cascadia. I felt like none of them really talked about the cool new features exclusively available on ONLY the new models. So let's dive in and I'll show you what all the hype is about!

Nice truck 🚚
Never seen a boss that was actually interested in the trucks and not just hiring people. Nice to see
she has to be why not lol
Oh Shelby you missed one important neat Thing....????.We just noticed it.......It is sooooo Cool that you Got to help Design your Company Trucks.....That was a great Benefit to your Company Shelby got to use her Do and Donts,,,,lessons learned from her driving Experience.......Most Companies don't do This ....so Shelby is Doing Justice to help bet out her Competition......Good Job Shelby....to make it more pleasant to work for Your Company....too......**&!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She has been a driver too.

FedEx is about their people Shelby Drives for FedEx
Just a bit of advice from someone who has successfully lived off-grid for 20 yrs in my own rig, (and even longer before that in Outback Australia). Use full sine-wave inverters, not modified-sine wave (the cheaper ones). The modifieds are "dirty" electrical wave forms and will eat up the electronics and motors in your microwaves and fridgies. They wreck AC power bricks ( e.g. laptops) faster as well, often overheating them. Also, avoid the "blown fuse" dilemma out on the road by using 12V re-settable circuit breakers. More expensive, but they'll last forever.
Since I drive solo, I tend to sit longer so I have a small APU when necessary, but usually my solar setup keeps my batteries charged. Since her trucks will be running constantly with team drivers, keeping batteries charged is not as much of an issue. But all in all, she is really setting her drivers up for success. So good to see in this industry. Bloody hell, I'm even tempted to go drive for her.
If only other fleet owners actually cared that much. If I were still driving I would apply.
Ok I have absolutely zero knowledge in trucking, but it seems like she has the drivers best interest and quality of living as one of her top priorities. So why would anyone dislike her video. She has the qualities of a true leader when it comes to her people. Shelby I wish you all the best with your company and it’s future. You made me a subscriber. Keep killing it.
All right. Hear me out.
I`m a straight female, so although I realize how beautiful Shelby is, I`m not attracted to her.
I have absolutely nothing to do with trucking whatsoever. Like at all! I`m not considering it as my career, I don`t have any friends or family members doing this.
And very much a cat person, so I`m not here for the dog (but I like her, and those like transcriptions of her thoughts... that warms my heart)
BUT I`VE BEEN STUCK HERE FOR A FEW MONTHS!! And I can`t wait for every new video, re-watch some of them, absolutely love them. Both vlogs and specific truck-stuff. I mean... THIS IS SOME KIND OF MAGIC!
Love what you do!
🥰 your comment is so sweet
And because you watch these videos I’m sure you have a different understanding of trucking and view/approach them differently on the road. :)
Ha ... it's ok to enjoy content due to personality! Carry on 😁🤙
I'm curious. What is a straight female?
@@Pokingthebear999 One without curves =oP
Truly cares for her drivers, as well as the equipment on the truck!! I'm Caregiver 24x7 for my parents now ... and I would consider working here when the time is right.
Love listening to her voice too!!
So Im I !
I come from a family of three generations of truck drivers. All male with one exception, a tow trucker. Here in Sweden, there´s a screaming demand for new truck drivers, regardless of gender. Since most of us soon are about to get retired. And to replace them with new ones and change the picture of a typical truck driver female drivers are wanted. You and Angelica Larsson mean a lot to change the pictures of trucking of today. You are both so positive and informative in your own personalized ways. I wish you all the best and take care when you are out on the roads.
impressed the crap out of me, as i was flipping thru videos i come across this gem, as a 12yr otr driver and a 14 yr truck tech, this young lady has impressed me with her knowledge of the cascadia and the systems included. glad to see people still exist that take care of their employees and their equipment. thank you for all that you do. have a great day...
Love how passionate you're building your company. Wish you luck on your dreams and goals!
Yes.. :) Respect to that young lady.. Greetings from Denmark.
I have worked for a few different trucking companies and have never seen anyone care as much about their drivers comfort as this lady right here.
Give her a few more year's, there all the same eventually. Just saying. It's always been profits before driver's.
@@ajsalinas7592 you're absolutely right. However, have you ever known or met anyone who started a business not to make a profit? I'm pretty sure when the Waltons founded Walmart, they did not do so thinking to themselves " jeez, I hope this works so I don't make any money". If the business doesn't make money, there is no business to take care of the employees. I do get your point though. When profit becomes the one and only concern, the employees are the first to feel it.
I just wish all carriers thought and cared about their drivers like her. In my opinion, she's a trucking industry Angel from trucking heaven.😇
Don't know trucking at all but this was very interesting to watch.
Now you know damned good and well the reason why you clicked is not the truck . 😉
@@kenprevatt1267 of course. That truck is badass though. I'd travel in that thing for sure.
My dad's a trucker. I don't necessarily want to do it for a living, but I am learning the ropes in case they ever need help. (Family Business)
@@joseambriz5897 Makes sense.
Great episode and very nice Rig.It’s going to fun watching you build the company and template your trucks kit and finishes! Outfitted for comfort and use from the start is a great advantage! Awesome to see you back and eager for future episodes!
Shelby, just saw the end of the last video you are so refreshing, you seem to be as warm and friendly with your employees as you are with your community. Thank you so much for your kindness. Can't wait for the next one.
It is so informative and adorable the way you present the world of trucking to people and explain all the stuff about trucks. Keep it up and know that people who watch this, all melt with you and the way your deliver your info. Safe driving and keep learning.
I've driven almost every thing except a semi. The reason being? I've seen a few accidents in my many years on the road. And I shy away from driving those vehicles. However? my respect for the drivers of such goes with out saying.. I prefer the straight trucks, OTR and Regional. One piece of equipment under me. And no jackknifing. And in todays world? They come just as well equipped as a tractor. Safety features included.
I love trucking in general. Hence my owning two businesses in the industry back in the day. I'm retired now, But the "bug" never left me. I got tired of just sitting around. So here I go...back into the industry again. I love it. Being on the road and seeing this beautiful country. Meeting awesome kind people. Yeh...To me? That's what being on the road is all about.
Truckers are a special breed of people. They're the backbone of this country. And from my experience? They are the soul of the transportation industry... around the world.
Good Luck on your adventure young lady. Be well and may the wind be at your back!
Yeah Shelby is back.
That truck looks sharp. Wishing you all the best beautiful.
I've always been fascinated by semis, but never dealt much with them. Thanks for taking the time to explain the details Shelby! Anyone can read a sales brochure. It definitely helps to hear the perspective of an experienced truck driver, to understand the significance of all these features.
Makes me want to get back into driving trucks again. It's great to see you really want to take care of your drivers.
I have found memories of this particular model of truck, I stayed in two older models at two different times, when my dad was still a truck driver. He brought me along with him those times, and both times they were this model. They’re honestly fairly comfortable models from what I remember.
Thanks for coming back! We miss you. I about finish my school you are my inspiration! I want to do it right and safe .
Wow Shelby! Welcome back!! You're a breath of fresh air!!!
I really love your videos. It nice to see how happy you get with those features. We have all of those for a few years now like the auto light/wiper lane assist and emergency brake system. Is good to see someone being happy with those, it let's me think of a few years back when I had those things for the first time on a truck.
Keep these cool videos coming
Very happy for you . I love to see ppl are moving forward and giving a hope to the others. PPL DONT GIVE UP.
Best saleswoman for Freightliner ever!
I think, whatever she would sale i would buy it no matter, just as long as she would be my sales woman...
so hopefully when she is buying next one, they say "and this one is on us"
They are called "Fifth Wheel Frame Ramps"
Usually on heavy haul trucks.
@Mark Williams Listen I could not Remember What Those were Call For real
I thought they were ramp thingy's for the thingy thing's........NO????
Cozad ramps
@Iron *Fe*, heavy haul doesn’t use them. Everything gets rust eventually.
Personally, I’d put them (low boy ramps) on ANY truck I owned.
I want to thank you for your videos , so informative , easy to listen too , the ups and downs of life on the road and I love your doggy .
So my wife and I love your channel. We have nothing to do with trucking but we appreciate what you all do so much more now. Your videos are awesome and informative and the editing is REALLY amazing...they look like a TV documentary! We are binging through the older videos now but we wanted to thank you for all the amazing content! 👍
@Hello James how are you doing
Someone's got to do it mineswell be us
Lane keep assist is awesome for highways and high winds. Just have to remember to turn it off in cities and twisty roads.
Not a fan of 100% power steering. Not feeling the road through your fingers - the only skin touching the vehicle - you might miss out on losing traction. Which in snow can be VERY dangerous
Best wishes and good luck on your new journey. Glad you're back!
thanks for the tour.in 1992 i learned to drive a double clutched trucking school.used truck.this is like a different world and you seem to care about your drivers which is really nice to see.
Shelby you are definitely an amazing person. Best of luck with your company. Stay well and safe Artie 👍
I'm just behind you by two years! Just got my own truck, 2019 freightliner Cascadia
I’m glad you are doing well. Take one day at a time. It will all come together
Fantastic job. You are a blessing to the industry. Thank you for being genuine.
Gorgeous trucks. You can tell you put a ton of thought into everything. Good luck and I wish u the best!
I'm honestly impressed by the features these newer trucks have. Kudos to Shelby for taking time to give us this tour :)
Very cool, you're so considerate, hope the drivers respect the thoughtfulness and take care 🔥
im so glad i randomly came across your channel. the way you explain and communicate information is easy to understand and follow along. this is the kind of channel i was looking for when it came to trucks. thanks Shelby keep up the hard work! the part in front of the fifth wheel, I call it the frame sliders but i think im wrong. but ramp works as well.
Hey Shelby - Fantastic video! As a retired owners operator I have to say that I think you have a good handle on things. Keep doing what you're doing because you're doing it right. Take care and be safe out there. Love you much! 💖💖
I pray you get drivers who will care for your equipments as much as you cared about their needs, safety and comfort. This is awesome. Be safe out there and stay 🙌🏾🙏🏾
We call them 5th wheel guides in Ireland where you stand to put on the air lines we call the catwalk good luck from Ireland
Those lane departure beeps came straight from the pits of Hell. Lol.
I’m sure they are great for team drivers when one is trying to sleep.
Lol
Its good for mentors for new drivers. Because there's normal beeps then there's too many beeps and you wake up and ask you ok. There's a lot of beeping going on.
I'm a technician that works with a company that runs only freightliner cascadia and the Detroit assurance can be a real pain sometimes.
They beep for absolutely no reason.. i know at least 4 people who've sought out other employment with trucks that don't use that shit
This young lady LOVES her job she has such passion
Shelby, good for you on your new adventure. Best of luck and enjoy the road!. Be safe
Hey good to see you...nice to know that all is going well with you! Amazing piece of equipment Shelby...love how you get so excited when you're explaining about the improvements you've made for your drivers! Wish I'd had a boss just half as considerate as you are:) Keep up what you're doing we need intelligent, thoughtful, and considerate people like you in the business. Perhaps then the high driver turnover rate would go way down?
Shelby, you are nothing short of AMAZING! I would love to have a boss like you.
It’s great to see an owner build their trucks with the driver in mind. So many just get the basics and ya left to deal.
Really enjoying your videos...I was a diesel/truck mechanic most of my life but really never got to see the day to day of what the drivers do and now with health issues won't have the chance to travel so seeing all the places you get to see is really satisfying to those of us who don't have that opportunity so from a somewhat new subscriber thank you for sharing your experiences.
Shelby, I absolutely LOVE this Truck and all the awesome features. You did a great job giving the breakdown on this rig.
You were much more informative than an actual salesman/saleswoman on this beauty.
Many will hate on the technology, but regardless of that fact, the technology like you said will make every drivers job much more easier and less stressful. ALSO..... Technology is going to move forward with or without us either way, so I personally accept it and welcome it as I'm about to head out into the game soon.
i love how her & her business is so human
Hey Shelby 👋 I'm glad you are back,
I sometimes worry when we don't hear from you !!! (Winter in the USA can be very hazardous) I absolutely love your Videos ~ one of my favorites was when you Baked Cookies and gave them out to random truckers, I thought that most sweet and kind of you, have an Awesome week and Kind Regards from the North Island of New Zealand 🇳🇿
PS: Give Dakota a big hug from me, Dakota is the best 🇺🇸 doggo on utube 👍😎👍
AJ
The most beautiful truck geek geeking out 😂. Love ❤️ this channel.
Hey Shelby! Just wanted to thank you for re-igniting my desire to be a driver. I was actually disabled for 10 years but wanted to work again. I got a procedure done which made me feel good enough to work again and was trying to decide what to do. I found your videos right after that and have been driving again for 7 months now. I'm probably going to apply to your company after my 1 year experience bar fills up. Thanks for such a wonderfully positive look into driving! My dogs Bear and Zoe say hi to Dakota.
You’re not being weird. You’re being cute AF excited about new tech. Keep trucking and goodluck with your business.
Nice to see a young woman with a bright idea and passion to have a successful company.
Has to be a motivation for others her age to strive to achieve the best for herself and the employees.
God Bless!!
Just came across your channel very cool. My family has been contracted with ground since the early 80’s in the RPS days. Nice to see another contractor that takes care of their drivers. Congrats on your company growth🤘🇺🇸
Congratulations for the new truck ♥
I'm Bruce from New Zealand I been following your videos and I love watching your truck stories and your guys work you do. Best of all I love your dog and the comments in the video what she's thinking. Anyway keep your videos coming and have a happiness by the mile 2021 🙂
Bruce ~ Dakota is a female Doggo old mate !!!
Sorry my mistake cheers mate 😚
Finally You Are Back,Love It
Thank you it was a great job sharing with us looking forward to seeing you all again soon.stay safe out on are roads
I’ve always dreamed of working for a company like yours. Great job!
This young lady is going to change the trucking industry! Smart, industrious, ambitious, positive, tough as nails, and drop-dead gorgeous. She is unstoppable.
Right? In literally about to go get my CDL and move to her town lol
You don't know and will ever know how she acts when the camera is off. It's just a RUclips video, man. She won't change anything.
@@lIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlI Her positive attitude "on camera" will at least have some impact on people who aren't judgemental and negative. BTW, can you point me to your youtube videos???
@Hello Shawn how are you doing
Love your attitude "Dirty" Eddie. I'm sure you're a real catch.
That's amazing to see you explain what you are doing to keep your driver's comfortable while on road. Keep up. Hope I'll work for your company in future.
I love my auto high beams on my Ford truck BUT... there were a couple times that it didn’t turn off. But my truck is also 4 years older. Auto windshield wipers are the best though! Glad they are finally implementing it on big rig trucks! Y’all are driving 24-7! This is what keeps you and others on the road safe
I'm seeing more and more girls driving trucks..👍
used to drive myself from 1996- 2009.

Awesome montage in the beginning, great cinematography!
Beautiful yang and smart, building her company with the new tegnologia. God bless you 👍
Good to see you catching up with us over here, Lol, I am a driver/assessor and I've been training drivers on this tech for the last couple of years now, it's the way the industry is going, more and more automation, our job is changing and we have to adapt to the changes or get left behind. Good on you for putting the driver's well-being and comfort first, but not so sure on the auto release for the king pin, I'll keep an eye on your future posts about that one. Good luck and well done Shelby.
Welcome back Shelby miss you
Absolutely AMAZING shelby!
Sweet, full lockers! Great for snowy conditions or off-road.
Hey Shelby we hope you are safe and well , there was a big pile up in fort worth Texas ; just hoping it wasn’t you and making sure you are okay , anyway love your content. Thank you for what you do for us and truck drivers in the industry!!!
Freightliner has 3 assembly plants in Mexico now, it's still a good truck, just has more wiring harness problems now, but not as bad as International.
Taco Freightliner!
The 2017 - present Internationals are a lot better.
@@johnbartlett9568 Taco Freight shaker
I have a friend that drives for FedEx and I'm definitely going to show him this video cuz we're supposed to meet up next week so I'm definitely going to let him see this and I'm glad you are back
Dig your motivation and drive. Dont loose the light. Keep kicking ass!
you are always in good spirits love it
Missed You!!! Glad You're Back!!! :-)
Shelby, so glad and happy you're doing good, hadn't heard from you, I was praying you, dakota and JB were having problems with the new company. I'll keep praying for y'all, god bless and be with you always.
You really believe that praying helps...🤪
@@berndgo I do believe that god hears our. Prayers and that jesus lives.
Hi Shelby congratulations on your new truck stay safe out there luv
My young dispatcher figured out I new what I was doing and put me in a new 2019 freightshaker 3 years ago,the freaking thing is bullet proof.I,ve never had a truck go 200000+ with out any type of break down ,big or small.those rear ramps cause the trailer to lift onto the 5th wheel so if the plate is tipped forward it should keep the trailer from banging into the soft part of trl
ITS SO GOOD TOOOOOO
SEE YOUR OK." THANKS "
Dumping your air suspension when dropping trailers saves your shocks too.
facts! and its common sense but most drivers dont use it or forget to use it.
The reason the dump valve was invented was to stop drivers from BLOWING OUT the Air Bags on the rear of the truck. It doesn’t safeguard the landing gear or save the shocks. And drivers of this era don’t know these things as you saw on the video the owner of her own company doesn’t know very much about a truck just the comfort features. Just another reason why steering wheel holders are the new terms used for today’s generation of truck drivers. I am not going to say I know everything but I know plenty. And some of these new features is because drivers today can’t handle driving with a phone in their hands. 6 to 8 weeks with a trainer is just not enough time to teach anybody everything. And that’s why uphill assist, downhill assist, lane departure assist, and other computer systems have been invented
Why can't every company have an Awesome person like you to help their drivers and make better trucks with the options. You are Totally Awesome. 👍👍🇺🇸
You are a beacon in heavy duty trucking. The first heavy I drove was a 1960’s Seagrave Fire Ladder truck. No high technology, no power any thing, it took so much strength to turn the steering wheel and of course it was manual transmission. By the time I retired from the FD, the trucks were all power and automatics. The driving experience of heavy trucking has benefited so much from technology, it has changed the world of precision driving for safety and comfort of all truck drivers.
You are a very caring owner. Need more people like yourself!!!!!
I'm a Freightliner dealer sales person and you did a better walk a round then anyone on my sales team.LOL..... Nice job! I hope Freightliner marketing sees this.
Any good deals on trucks rn?
I have the automatic lights and high beams and wipers in my car. I love them. I have the lane assist and adaptive cruise. It's great!
You are awesome, explaining, the walk around the newest of the newest, functions that's so great to hear, now if the trucks could automatically high idea start with heated steering wheel, plus seats too. Thks keep up the good work, an your
" business "
*Finally beautiful lady back on beautiful trucking vlog* ❤️👍🤘
Glad you're back. Chev trucks have had the auto high beam for a couple years now. Really cool feature
Remember when the Lincoln Town Car had the automatic high beams back in the 1980's
@@Roger_Rabbit_Adventures yep it was on some Ford cars also back in the 80s and it’s been on the Ford pickups for a few years now also
Congratulations Shelby, Good luck with the new company.
Shelby great video and what a detailed walk through wow way different then I remember thanks and stay safe
My 2019 Volvo has auto lights, auto ac speed and air location, and auto wipers
One feature I'd spec my truck out with is heated windshield, to help melt ice on the wipers
Heated wiper blades been out for decades FYI
@@paulmcfeeters5554 i have used heated wipers for years
Love your vlogs a lot
I'll be driving exactly as this this weekend for long haul Shelby . Sweet truck! stay safe!
It's just like Lane assist in a passenger vehicle, it let you know when someone is in your blind spot. I love it on my SUV and when I pull the trailer it includes the trailer also when someone gets alongside the trailer that lights up in my mirror and I know someone is there. Best safety thing they have made for a vehicle yet to date.
That lane keep assist is dangerous I drive a 2021 fully decked out and when I’m on the far right lane and about to pass an exit it try’s to pull you out of the highway and into the exit and when pulling doubles it’s not the safest thing I tend to just turn it off
This lady is super cute! 😘
Faxts
Agreed
Absolutely true that and has a Heart of Gold 💛 🇺🇸 👍❤👍
Sweet and sincere lady. Refreshing change from trucking companies. Nice to see driver has control over safety features, most senior drivers turn them off. Never seen a 5th wheel weight gage accurate enough to trust. Never seen electronic traction control that made a difference just lock pwr divider if its that bad get out and chain up or do a 34 hope it clears up. Personally if a truck doesnt have a clutch pedal I am not going to drive it. As for one thing she couldn't identify they sometimes called frame skids some call them 5th wheel ramps. I have driven sevetal Cascadias. Not bad trucks with the Detroits they are light with a 10sp. I have the double endorsement but quit pulling doubles and triples decades ago. Call me lazy I do 53ft vans with HAZMAT thats enough in its own. But overall with this Ladies demeanor I would say she will become successful in the business
