    Great job Dawson. Good to see a clean cut driver that is young with no hardware and flip flops. Last trip for me in a truck was in 1991. Been to Ak several times, once on a Harley from MN and few times with a truck camper. Will keep a look out for you next time up. Great job on the video also!

    Dawson awesome video 📹 bud, 2 trailer haul pretty cool 😎 🆒️, the forklift made light work of unloading you, and again the scenery en route was absolutely beautiful,

    I recognize a lot of the footage as I drove it many times when I drove it back in the 90's with doubles. Across the flats of Cantwell up through the canyon etc.

      That’s awesome! I bet the highway was rougher then

    Another good video. I didn’t care much for FBKS, little boring and more traffic. It’s a good change of pace, hard to beat VDZ. Hope you get Deadhorse, rough but a good change. Thanks again

      Definitely way more traffic on the parks but it’s a nice change of pace for sure

    Air leaving the trailer suspension will cause a teater totter effect and the king pin will rise

      That’s also a good point didn’t think about that

      They also move forward a couple inches when they go down, you can see the bottom of the landing legs were pushed back a little from it.

    First time seeing "turnpike doubles" NOT on a toll road! (I'm from PA so we only see double 48/53' doubles on the NY Thruway, OH & IN toll roads)

      That’s interesting I didn’t know that’s the only roads they run on there haha

    If you think those straps would keep that pipe from sliding forward in a wreck, you probably believe in the tooth fairy.

    • @TheAlaskaTrucker
      @TheAlaskaTrucker  5 днів тому

      Depends on the wreck. I’ve seen quite a few wrecks/rollovers that pipe stayed put for the most part.

    I’m pretty sure my T680 with the 450 Cummins would just lay over and die with that much weight 😂

      lol the ol CAT wasn’t too happy with it either but pulled it just fine 🤙🏽

    Why don't the they deck the second trailer to go back? That lift surely could have done it

    • @TheAlaskaTrucker
      @TheAlaskaTrucker  12 годин тому

      Definitely could’ve. But the time it takes to deck them plus stow the dolly and secure it all isn’t worth it. Just dragged them both back 🤙🏽
