I was not surprised how you got in that rabbit hole, trucker you have shown the high skill level you possess, in your shows, many time Tks..for the ride".".
GREAT JOB,you didn't need the head camera for me ,i saw every move you had to make. Lot of clutch work know how rough that is,remember those trips to N.Y.C. .Thanks again,Happy Trails.
Excellent Job! I started weating the second I saw the dock in the google maps. lol. It is so critical to get out and look and verify everything is ok. One little mishap could cost thousands of dollars
I hated places like that. That should be a No Parking Zone, but companies dont care about stuff like this & car owners think they own the streets. Iv always hated Ca. Its a different world in L.A. (Or anywhere else in Ca for that matter.) They're not exactly "Trucker Friendly", if you know what I mean. :)
That's a tight fit...theu should have no parking there look like your arm's got a work out...lol thanks for sharing have a great week God Bless n stay safe
Great video driver, I pray that in April or May I can be out there traveling the roads like you are doing and with a big Pete from Peterbilt Steve. Be safe
Great video today! It is amazing what a good driver can do when he takes his time and keeps his cool. I can almost taste those oranges! Oh My! Safe trip east!! We be waiting for the next video.
Nice gesture to buy the bag of oranges from an original entrepreneur, nice to see this specific video on my home state, take care on the road Mr. And "God Bless" your journey as a great O/O.
Very nice job backing that big rig into that small dock. Enjoy your videos just for that reason. I live in n Diego area and just started following you , be careful going east.
Looks like it may have been easier to blind side that trailer in that hole. Only thing is you can't see out your back window and would rely heavily on your right mirror. At least you'd have a better view of that car in back of the camaro. Very tight fit indeed. I could do it after my left leg has nearly fallen off tho from clutching. GOOD JOB! Very nice tractor, I drove a 2009 Pete same model.
What a nasty place to deliver. Not only did you have to weave around the cars on the road, but you were backing blind into the building. There was no way you could see inside the building you were backing into. Very nice job!
Since you strive for perfection..lol...no shifting over tracks. :-) In the 90's I was triple placarded on my second box, stopped on I-10 as HP was training a guy. After confirming paperwork checked out okay, he followed me to 51st avenue south. He stayed behind me while stopping for the tracks...and OF COURSE I didn't shift; easy does it. :-) Good job on the dock! Have a great Christmas!
azcactusflower1 that’s a crazy law, and I’m a outlaw sometimes, I was afraid someone was going to get me for not doing a full stop on that one, but good call on the shifting, I will work on my editing skills 😛
Gota hand it to ya Tim that was tight and not a scratch on anything 👏 some of these guys even the experienced ones don't realize the talent it takes to put a long nose in a tight spot.nice job Driver.👍
i wish u would of had a go pro on the rear of the trailer, showing just how u do that. maybe on on the side of the tractor-how ya set things up. that's why i liked my fender mirrors so much-just for them times a red camero is in the way. lol. still good backing-IMO. later
You may think an automatic would have been nice there instead of the work out with the clutch, but they don't inch like a clutch. They sometimes grab quick and take off, causing close calls. (Yes, I drive an auto, kw t660. Even though I drive in manual mode, I cuss it every day.)
Hate automatics,, was one of the factors as I was contemplating retirement,, my co. was going all auto. gave me a newMACK 2015 with one.. lasted 2 months & said I'm done. LOL
Great Driving Sir! Love these Vlogs, being a Trucker up in Calgary,Alberta, Canada, your views from behind the wheel and across the U S A are very interesting! Keep them Coming!
I love watching Sergei Dratchev Heavy Haul, SuperTruckerDan, DrivingBro, JBG TRAVELS, and your channel Excellent backing, a lot of footwork with that clutch pedal.
Well Chucky, Sir Tim has a lot of class, You got Sergei and JBG who pee in their truck and you got Trucker Dan who sleeps with a Dog with fleas, Tim is my choice he's clean and neat and a beautiful piece of equipment.lol..
This young man that drives this peterbuilt is a very safe driver he look out for people take his time real respectful to people i love all of your videos i also like how clean he keeps his truck pride is everything and he shows it’s very well stay safe buddy and keep the videos coming cause I’m checking everyday for a new video if not i enjoy the old ones just fine.👍
Sir Tim !!! That's trucking !! You aint gona have the good all the time !!! The kids will learn as they gain experience !! It don't help them if you do the backing for them !! They have to do it themselves !!!! KEEP IT SAFE !!!
Hey man! So the guy that had my truck before me bought a simple back up camera and monitor. He installed the camera under the top passenger step. The monitor on the dash and wired it to the ignition. So I can see my passenger wheel/lug nuts(blind spot) MAKES LIFE A LOT BETTER!!!
I would have never thought you would roll thru my city... Watch your videos good stuff keep it up keep on trucking! I stay in Whittier off valley and telegraph!! ... PS your got a sexy ass truck!!!
Delivered chemicals there many times for a local company, that dock is tight for a daycab with a 53. They used to have a flood light on the dock on the passenger side to help give you an idea of the depth of the dock.
That was absolutely awesome Tim, you definetly know how to drive that rig. I was nervous watching that camaro. I wonder if the owner was inside just watching you to see if you would hit it.
That's what the docks at most older grocery stores look like,, Did that everyday,, also you don't need those long wheelbase tractors,, just to look cool.
Next time you’re in So Cal I would like to get some drone shots of your truck and backing into a dock. I’m always looking for something to shoot. I drove for 5 years but it’s been about 12 since I’ve used my A. I think I’m going to get back in it,,, I just don’t want to be a company driver. Be safe, have fun and thanks for the great videos.
Done like a true professional Tim btw I like the color of your truck better than Chris's and I know what you went through backing I used to drive a 379 265 wb and a 53 ft dryvan
Love your truck,your vids. Most of my family. Uncle's and my aunt drives or drove a truck. How much was your truck . I know there is a 6 digit price tag
quite the work out backing in, good job. was going to tell you how swift would have done it, but if you have only bad to say, say nothing about that, pull toy told you that
Man you would figure they would of build that building using their brains just a little to think about trucks backing in that area. Also don't have anyone parking in your way. They should of make a efert to post NO parking so drivers could back.maby you could say something to the carrier about that. Yeah I love the big Cali 🍊. Good driving !! 👍👍 Thanks for your videos !!!!
Doug Norris well unfortunately a lot of buildings were built way back in the day when trucks weren't nearly as big. This could be the case but if not yea I totally agree.
When you put a "No Parking" sign up in California, Oregon or Washington, 10X the people park there. I was having anxiety, because i'm so used to using my hood mirrors, and the Pete here doesn't have any lol. Amazing Job Tim!
compared to the warehouses that were built in the 40s and 50s in the East and the South, this dock ain't so hard. Instead of a dozen vehicles in each direction sweating him all he had was UPS giving him professional courtesy. A straight truck or a daycab with a 53 footer probably goes in there every day with no drama. It's just the kind of thing you have to get used to dealing with when you got a what, 290 inch wheel-base. What's saving you is that Peterbilts have a tighter steering angle than KW or Freightliner Classics.
I am always impressed how you drivers backing this huge trailers into every small space... Wow...
You have the voice of a country singer.
Beautiful truck,love the wheel base.
Awesome Job , you nailed it. Truck looks Wonderful too. Becareful coming back East. Another very enjoyable video.....Happy Trails...
I was not surprised how you got in that rabbit hole, trucker you have shown the high skill level you possess, in your shows, many time Tks..for the ride".".
Brian Lloyd Thanks for tagging along and for the compliment
You have great driving skill. I am amazed that when designing buildings so little thought is being given to the practical side of things.
Frederic Koning a lot of places have docks like this, all they need to do is ban parking on the streets, and you’ll have tons of room to reverse in
Excellent job getting in and out of a hole in the wall...the man can kick-butt backing up .
Dinoxt12 👍
GREAT JOB,you didn't need the head camera for me ,i saw every move you had to make. Lot of clutch work know how rough that is,remember those trips to N.Y.C. .Thanks again,Happy Trails.
Excellent Job! I started weating the second I saw the dock in the google maps. lol. It is so critical to get out and look and verify everything is ok. One little mishap could cost thousands of dollars
scythe08 yes indeed, slow and easy
I always take it easy on the tight holes!don't want to tear it up!
I hated places like that. That should be a No Parking Zone, but companies dont care about stuff like this & car owners think they own the streets. Iv always hated Ca. Its a different world in L.A. (Or anywhere else in Ca for that matter.) They're not exactly "Trucker Friendly", if you know what I mean. :)
Tim, I have watched this video several times, I'm always impressed. Good job.
A very impressive professional job Tim, you done it right. Great driving skills!
That's a tight fit...theu should have no parking there look like your arm's got a work out...lol thanks for sharing have a great week God Bless n stay safe
Christine always chirping i needed the exercise
This brings back memories. id have chuckled if you had to slightly fudge the red camaros location a tad lol
Yes docks like that need no parking on each side of the dock like where the red car was. Heck of a backing job Tim.
Great video driver, I pray that in April or May I can be out there traveling the roads like you are doing and with a big Pete from Peterbilt Steve. Be safe
Trip planning has come a long way since my day back in the 90's
G Black it’s a lot easier isn’t it, plus checking the weather is a huge benefit as well
Thank God for Power Steering , I have done it without it and it's no fun , nice job Tim !
Bravo Zulu Tim! Slow and steady wins the prize every time.
flewnvy 👍 that’s my motto
Great job Mr truck driver,some times that ol wheelbase makes ya work for it lol
man, thank you for these great videos. I absolutely love your truck. cant wait to get started.
Great video today! It is amazing what a good driver can do when he takes his time and keeps his cool. I can almost taste those oranges! Oh My! Safe trip east!! We be waiting for the next video.
Bill Lamb Thank you, next one should post Tuesday morning
I'll be waiting to watch it !
Now guys, there's a pro at work, and he did a great job, thanks for sharing that!..
Bill Mathies 👍
I've watched this video several times, it still makes me nervous. Well done, the joys of a hood.
Very worthy footage for the 100th Vlog 👍 Thank you Sir for taking the time to put these together, I have really enjoyed them.
BROTHER ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS .....NICE AND CLEAN....GREAT PRIDE IN YOUR WORK AND YOUR CRAFT ...BE BLESSED AND SAFE DRIVER..
Nice gesture to buy the bag of oranges from an original entrepreneur, nice to see this specific video on my home state, take care on the road Mr. And "God Bless" your journey as a great O/O.
ANDREASRIAL Thank you, I wish I had of bought two bags, I really enjoyed them.
Nicely done! Man, what a left leg work-out! Your videos are pleasure to watch! Post card coming your way.
Very nice job backing that big rig into that small dock. Enjoy your videos just for that reason. I live in n Diego area and just started following you , be careful going east.
Good job not scratching nothing with that great truck!
Phil Moore that’s all that matters

Very nice tractor, I drove a 2009 Pete same model.
I would have went in and ask them to move the red car....although you did a great job putting it in the hole.
That sounds like a good idea, but it could take a hour or more, only to find out, you can't find the owner.
What a nasty place to deliver. Not only did you have to weave around the cars on the road, but you were backing blind into the building. There was no way you could see inside the building you were backing into. Very nice job!

Nice job driver ! Keep up the great work and God bless !
Gorgeous truck! Great backing skills. Enjoy your videos and keep up the good work.
Nice work backing in that dock. A challenge for a veteran!
TheEquipmentking Thank you, piece of cake 🎂
I love watching this video, whenever I am complaining about a tight dock i have to back into , I
Think of this tight dock and it sets me straight lol
Gota hand it to ya Tim that was tight and not a scratch on anything 👏 some of these guys even the experienced ones don't realize the talent it takes to put a long nose in a tight spot.nice job Driver.👍
Wow that was tight. Good job you got them picked up and also got restocked on produce. That's a win-win, be safe going east.
Big props on that dock. I used to have to do that all day doing ltl with a day cab. That long ass pete kicks it up a notch
Beautiful tractor. Enjoyed your vlog.
Nice job with backing in!
i wish u would of had a go pro on the rear of the trailer, showing just how u do that. maybe on on the side of the tractor-how ya set things up. that's why i liked my fender mirrors so much-just for them times a red camero is in the way. lol. still good backing-IMO. later
BigJim57 Thank you, Yes I need to step up my game with setting up cameras
You may think an automatic would have been nice there instead of the work out with the clutch, but they don't inch like a clutch. They sometimes grab quick and take off, causing close calls. (Yes, I drive an auto, kw t660. Even though I drive in manual mode, I cuss it every day.)
123woullard I would imagine that would be its downfall
just remember these words of encouragement. your bigger and they can wait.
Hate automatics,, was one of the factors as I was contemplating retirement,, my co. was going all auto. gave me a newMACK 2015 with one.. lasted 2 months & said I'm done. LOL
@@LifeisGood2018 Its a huge downfall.
Great Driving Sir! Love these Vlogs, being a Trucker up in Calgary,Alberta, Canada, your views from behind the wheel and across the U S A are very interesting! Keep them Coming!

Nicely done
ron johnson Thank you
Can you change the camera angle showing the steering and dials?
Great backing !
Great job! I put a lot of hoods into a lot of places but I was never 290”!
bunker108 290 isn’t bad at all
That was absolutely awesome Tim, you definetly know how to drive that rig. I was nervous watching that camaro. I wonder if the owner was inside just watching you to see if you would hit it.
that was cool wish I could of saw you backing it in like pulling it out but still amazing also your going to my hometown Richmond VA 👍👍
Nice rig you got there!!! Sharp
Winter is likely coming. Can you do a simple video on driving on Ice, and snow? It would be great to hear advice from a veteran. Thanks
Been to docks like that before, in and out of cab 15 times just to be sure , that's Ca though
That's what the docks at most older grocery stores look like,, Did that everyday,, also you don't need those long wheelbase tractors,, just to look cool.
Wow! Great job.

Still keeping my eye out to come across you!! I'm a fellow LandStar Op. Like your vids, No whining or hatefulness !!

It seems like every dock we bump in California is tight. Much like Chicago docks. Lol
Nice work backing in that dock. Master! :)) Yours faithfully from Russia.
GOOD BACKING SKILLS #LG WELCOME BACK TO CALIFORNIA
CALI #KINGS thanks 👊👊
Good score on the oranges
Jay T yes it was, they are really good
Good job Tim! It would have taken me a month to get it into that dock.
Great job backing. If you had stubby 2 would have been a lot easier 😁. Those 10 inches make a difference Just kidding that combo you got is sick man.
Kendrick Salley that’s funny there Mr Stubby #2, thanks for the laugh man
Ain't no problem for a pro. Very impressive. I would still be there trying to get in.😎
Ferd Farkle it wasn’t as bad as it looked
Done like a true professional Tim btw I like the color of your truck better than Chris's and I know what you went through backing I used to drive a 379 265 wb and a 53 ft dryvan
Love your truck,your vids. Most of my family. Uncle's and my aunt drives or drove a truck. How much was your truck . I know there is a 6 digit price tag
jonesjames89 it was in the lower 160 range, Peterbilt Steve at Rush Peterbilt in Tulsa Oklahoma, check him out.
I like the challenge been in tight spots like that before goal whenever in doubt better safe than sorry

Good job!
Angel Z Thank you
We’re you running a hazmat load cuz I notice you stop at the rail road tracks or do you do it just for safety
Big Boy Trucker yes it was hazmat and yes I changed gears crossing the tracks, but don’t tell anyone else
Man you would figure they would of build that building using their brains just a little to think about trucks backing in that area. Also don't have anyone parking in your way.

Do you keep logs of all the difficult docks so you can ask 4 more $$$$ to haul that freight ? Next time
Now that's how you put that ole long nose petercar in there!!! Good deal!!👍✌️
