- BIG Mistake! | I Hauled EMPTIES 2,000+ Miles On Accident!
Don't worry guys, FedEx totally understood the miscommunication between me and linehaul... Thankfully! As a truck driver, sometimes this kind of stuff happens. I hope you guys enjoyed the vlog. I have more exciting trucking adventures and teaching videos coming out soon! See you in the next one!

None of your vlogs are ever boring! I’m actually a nurse and have no interest in trucking but you make it seem so cool and interesting 😍 I’m glad you’re doing what you love Shelby 💖
DanniALA A Lol Im a nurse too and I can’t stop watching these videos 🤷🏻♀️😂
@@gines2634 😂😂 it’s making me question my whole career direction! 🙈🙈😂😂 I just think Shelby is amazing, she’s doing what she loves and gets to see so many places while doing so. Trucking is kinda cool 🥰
@@stormskies3861 you never know when you may need a nurse as well. Ive seen my fare share of craziness this year and nursing its always handy. God bless
@delna Yelan I've been a barber for three decades; and at the age of fifty-four, I'm considering trucking. You're right: Human beings are human beings. Translation: Dealing with the general public gets old.
Same. Well I’m a sahm and there’s no way I’d be able to be a trucker but I love these videos. Shelbys energy is so bright
It’s not boring...it’s reality. That’s why I watch it.
I have COMPLETELY NEW AND FULLY EQUIPED TRUCKS ready for ride. I need 4,5 drivers with CDL and OTR experience.

If you are interested, or you know somebody who would be interested please write me in comment. Thanks bro!
Depends, compared to actually living in Fairbanks and driving throughout Alaska/Yukon Territory it is;)
I am a Nurse in Ohio and I don’t know anything about driving trucks, but you are so upbeat about your life it is fun to watch your videos. Thank you.
Me too! I'm a nurse in Ontario!

My do you drive 55
On Tuesday there was a funeral for a fallen Police Woman in my area. Going between the place where the funeral was held and the cemetery there was a several miles long possession of vehicles. When the possession entered the interstate immediately trucks on the other side began pulling off the roadway with many actually getting out and standing facing the possession. What was really nice was when the trucks decided to block all 3 lanes to force the rude people continuing to pass by at 70 mph to stop and show respect to the fallen hero. A big shoutout to the truckers for their show of respect!!!
Good on you guys for taking a stand, and my condolences for the police woman's family , Stuart uk.
I'm sure you meant procession. Some people have no class at all when it comes to respecting others, especially a fallen police officer. Shame on all of them and good on the truckers blocking the way for the rudeness. Cheers
@@dickb2128 you are right. This thing constantly changes words on me to what it thinks I’m trying to say. Usually reread stuff to see if it right but the grandkids came in as I was finishing so I didn’t check it this time
We do the same thing in Georgia! Us true Southerners know what respect is!
Respect is one thing, blocking the road is another, you don't have no right to block the road, how do you know maybe someone needs to get to the hospital or some emergency.
THE MAIN THING IS YOU DID IT RIGHT AND YOUR SAFE, GOOD JOB.
Texting dispatch is great because you have a written record if something goes pear shaped.
I always text everything to my dispatch and trust me they hate that
The linehaul at my hub is kinda stupid and the texting driving’s only made more confusion. So it’s not surprising that mistakes happen all the time.
@@andresdejesus1281 Your dispatcher is either lazy or not bright. Texting leaves a "written" record of what was discussed, therefore, you're able to go read it again and make sure that things are right. I ALWAYS text my guys their tasks, even if I literally just verbally told them. Covers BOTH the driver and the office's ass!!!
@@pivgiv yup i cover my ass just in case
Yeah it’s called CYA. : )
Shelby, I enjoy all of you vlogs and I always try to give the truckers the courtesy they deserve. With my Ram and RV I'm 50' and always appreciate their courtesy to me. Safe travels.

Thanks for the all great comments and stay safe and I love your video and I love your truck nice job
I've been driving trucks here in the UK for a little over two years. I learned very quick that if something seems unusual or out of the ordinary, question it before you set off. Great vlog - loving seeing how things are done on the other side of the pond.
Shelby, even us Veterans love your channel and especially your positive attitude. It is very refreshing. We know it’s tough parking doubles but thank you so much for not parking in the fuel lanes when you are not fueling. There are to many lazy drivers that cannot walk a little further even when they need to.
I was in Colombian armed forces for 6 years and for security reasons I had to move to America, now build cranes and do schooling on the side but Shelby you've inspired me to look into trucking.

3:37 Guy driving by with the dolly he stole from you, lol
Lmaooo the comedic timing couldn’t have been any better
This is an old video. But I'm going through an rewatching a lot of old ones. They are so fun to watch and you have such a positive outlook on everything. Love this content. And you make trucking look so interesting
Love your videos. On your videos you often say “for new drivers” or if you’re looking to get into trucking. I think you should do a driving video for 9 hours to give people what it’s like to drive 10+ hours a day and see what OTR trucking is all about. I think some people don’t realize the daily grind of driving for all those hours.
Yes

@@pavelpucovski3800 hmu in 7 months
The biggest grind for me and many others are not the miles, but being away from home. Being away from family and friends for 3-4 weeks at a time is hard and is not for everyone. I’ve never been one to get homesick before trucking but it hits you different out here.
Driving for 10-15 hours a day for 11 1/2 months and being homesick was tough , back in 2003 . Actually two of my Grandfathers died while I was OTR . Also big city traffic was nerve racking .
Love the video. It was a stream of trucking consciousness. Even the hair wasn't that bad. Thanks for all your hard work. BTW. Dakota is the cutest!.
You're never boring Shelby. Always fun to watch your videos :)
What you went through is the part I hated in my truck driving career. But it was part of it and you grin and bare it and muscle through the BS and learn from it. I am so glad you didn't get too discouraged and you made it through the day. I am enjoying the videos. Keep up the good work !
I'm a shoe sales person & have no interest in trucking , but here I am watching these Videos lol

So were you hauling Dispatcher Brains or Sailboat Fuel?

@@bmacd2112 I was the 48th driver to enter Iraq in 2003 hauling JP8, Never hauled fuel before. I was told the day before to go outside the base to fill up my tank at the fuel farm. I broke down right outside the gate. So recovery came told me they will take care of everything and go get some sleep. Next morning came, I looked at my fuel gauge and it was full. So we rolled into Iraq and low behold, I hook my static line, I hook up my fuel hose, climb up on top of the tank and it was empty. So therefore my handle was Emptywagon. They told me I am lucky, because just the previous week a guy hauled water to a fuel farm. His handle was made then. haha!!!
@@talismankreationen6678 NICE!!! Yep, the military is good for nicknames. I was on Navy Submarines and my nickname was Yosemite Sam. It may or may not have had something to do with my temper. LOL
Hey Shelby!👋 Awesome to see you and Dakota again! Hope everything has been going great for you! Please get some rest! Be safe and blessed out there! Maybe when you have time, show a video/vlog on how to backup doubles/triples or what u do! 😆❤❤👍
Love your videos . You rock !!
It was a pleasure meeting in Portland. 🙌
Keep on trucking!!
That is awesome you were in Firestone! Im from Colorado kinda cool so see some vlogs to show off how beautiful it is here!

Shelby thank you for talking about the real situation of our industry. It means a lot. Stay loaded and keep rollin
Your vlogs always put me in a good mood. You have a talent and an attitude that is needed in these times. Keep it up and best wishes.

Everyday we learn what we want to learn and on the flipside, we learn what we don't want to learn! Life is always going to give you problems, then when you figure them out or not, you will create more problems. Love what you do, so that you enjoy the problems you have. I always admire and enjoy your video's of your daily trucking life! You are a bright shinny light. 👍😃
Great journey, thank you Shelby, I will gladly go on the next one with you. Get some rest, see you and Dakota "later."
Yeah I work for FedEx ground too and the texting thing is sooooo slow sometimes.
I agree. Sometimes they send you the wrong trailer number or location in yard.

Drove over cabbage back in early November and went throught a heavy snow storm, thankfully lots of trucks to duck in behind and follow safely to La Grande
Love your stuff Shelby keep on keeping on trucking and the views awesome aye blessings from New Zealand
Now that's funny. Your feet are not even on the floor, but one foot floating on the gas. 🤣🤣 🌞
I laughed when I saw that.
I'm 5 2 myself so my one foot isn't on the floor either. Lol
Exactly how I drive mine too. Short people issues.
Lol 5'0 and tippy toe on the floor and barely getting that throttle pressed. If I lower the seat, I can't see out. 😂

Great video Shelby. Stay safe out there.
Nice Vlog Shelby!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Don't feel too bad Shelby, I've bobtailed 1100 miles before, intentionally mind you but still.
At least you got some great fuel mileage.

Definitely the best part of driving is the open roads and beautiful scenery.
Merry Christmas 🎄 may god continue to guide you right from wrong. And bless your heart mind and soul.
That’s what I miss most about being on the road. Those sun rises that peak over the mountains or the sun sunrises across the Great Lakes. I’m a bit jealous.

Texting back and forth with line haul is very frustrating. We're starting to use a new app for dispatching today in California. I also had my dolly removed from behind my truck. Love the Fed Ex videos.

Agreed!
Thank you for explaining why you left your truck at the 7-Eleven fuel island while you went to get food. I was thinking that was really inconsiderate and I know you are not an inconsiderate person so I was a little confused. Thanks for clearing that up! And thanks for another great video!
Stay Safe on the roads Shelby, hopefully 2021 will be nicer to all of us after what we all went through this year! Woof Woof, sorry that was a hello to Dakota from me LOL. I love watching your videos here in Australia which i have may have said to you 100 times now already but it doesn't matter cause your Awesome & I never miss a minute of your content, until next time bye 4 now.

Im a contractor for FedEx Ground out of 644 kcmo. I had that happened to me as well with driving from Orlando Florida to Atl Georgia. But it wasn’t my fault. It was on dispatch

Awesome job!!!!! Keep up the good work on your videos! I would like to see a video of you backing up doubles! I drive a 10 axle rolloff semi. I'm just interested to see it and if you could give any advice on how its done?
Great to watch your blog. I am hooked for ever
