    I really loved your video. As someone with Bi-Polar type one it’s my dream to be able to drive truck and I’m working on getting my nerves back together after I had a break 8 years ago. Your videos give me hope that people that take medication can truck! Also I have a dog so I love seeing the interaction. ❤

    Kurt no worries you have a hard job dealing with other drivers. My dad was an over the road drive for 30 years and retired in 1988. In the 70's as a teenager I would go with him on a trip now and again and I learned words I had never heard and could tell how frustrated he would get with other drivers back then. I can only imagine what it is like today. I enjoy the channel!

    I am with you on the no air in the seat since I had an airbag go "kablam" in TN which scared the crap out of me AND instantly dropped me down to the floor so I could not see crap! Ever since then no air and arrange the truck to you!😊😊😊

    Hey Kurt, I am a subscriber of yours for a while now. I really enjoy all the stuff. Stopped at Sparkys yesterday, nice place. I drive a Peterbilt 389 and I do not put air in my chair either. Never have, never will. I am an average size guy, my seat is all the way back and my shifter is a little above shoulder height. It is comfortable to me. I am an old guy and it's all about comfort. Have a great day sir.

    Back in the early 80’s I was a city driver for Yellow freight and our seats. Were bolted to the floor. You wore your seat belt to stay in the seat . In 1988 was the first year city trucks got air ride seats and power steering . Linehaul had air ride seats and power steering.

    If that wear is on the inside rib of the inside tire on the drive that is wheel bearing loose. Contact MD Alignment out of Iowa and Mike Beckit will tell you the easy way and correct amount of torque to tighten the wheel bearings.

  • @peteengard9966
    @peteengard9966 Місяць тому

    The tire wear is called river wear. It's caused by internal cord separation. When you said you had it repaired is when the cord separation happened before the repair. The hole allowed air to infiltrate the steel belts separating the rubber and belt. As a retired truck mechanic. I liked tall shifters. They put a lot more wear in the transmission shift forks and sliding clutches. When I drove for awhile. I had to have a little air in the seat. It was the only air bag on the truck.

    Kurt, Why in the world should anybody care whether you put air in your seat or have a shifter that goes all the way to the ceiling? You ride for your comfort and stop worrying about what other people think. And for those people who sit there and pick apart everything that you do then I have no nice things to say to them. You are a nice person. You have shared a wonderful profession, you have shared your wonderful family and your wonderful dogs. The rest does not matter. You do you boo boo! I hope you have a wonderful day.

    Enid is about two hours north west of me. I go there to do inspection sometimes but I really do charge to do it. Enid is the home of Atwoods. Atwoods is in Oklahoma based tractor supply top store. It’s a lot better than tractor supply though. It makes tractor supply look like a sissy store. The main Atwoods store is in Enid.

Thirty years ago I used to haul "Bar-S Classic Jumbo Franks Hot Dogs" just above Seattle, Wa... used to walk around the plant there was pigs going up the ramp to the second story and hot-dogs coming out the first story dock on to the truck... It would usually take about three hours to get loaded, processing the pigs......

    I am one glad you don't use the Jake break. I have a young friend that started his own transport company. Little family money. I don't think he ever turns the damn brakes off. He tells me he is saving on the shoes and how much they cost to replace. All about trying to be cool I guess. Or just a young guy enjoying his new career. For me, I am like you Kurt even while riding my motorcycle. Coast to stop. Not down shifting. I guess it takes a while for some to learn.
