If your thinking of coming to Prime Inc or want to get your CDL license. I honestly believe Prime is a solid company to start your trucking journey. Make sure when you fill out the online application @ www.primeinc.com put my driver code STREXA on page 2 of the application when it ask who referred you. Thanks for watching my video 🙂💯♒
I’ve been driving for a few years but I’m getting ready to go into tanker with my (small) company. No one else here to train me so I gatta figure it out and your videos have been awesome. Great content sir!
I used to do a pretrip like that. For a long time now I walk around and inspect everything before I go inside and brush my teeth and so forth then look over things again when I go back outside. Then again when I take the dog for a walk and again when I get her back to the truck. I'm inspecting the unit anytime I'm outside before I leave so when I'm ready to go instead of putting myself on duty for a pretrip I change status to on duty then go back in time twenty minutes or so and label it pretrip then leave. That way if you find something wrong that needs a service call you find it ahead of time and get it fixed before you actually start ur clock.
bro, that happened to me. cleaned the truck down to the last little piece of dustbunny, then the next day they send me to pickup at this piece of crap lot that was dirt, and it had just stormed the night before lol. not to mention my trailer was buried behind other trailers but i was able to hook up at a 90 degree angle and drag it out of there
@@shaydesofblue2281 lol that’s a short time. I waiting for a month for a trainer, when I went through tnt. I would say u should get one in about a week or 2.
I think this will help you a great deal. Get yourself some rubbing Alcohol pull your trailer break out take the red line off put some of the rubbing Alcohol in the line it's best if you lay it down on the cat walk then put the red line back on then push the red trailer break in and then push the break pedal when you don't here anymore air. Then your trailer break will be free ..
Lol I thought I was the only trucker who carried a dust buster in his truck to keep the inside CLEAN 👍🏽😎.Wutz the name of that spray cleaner is that?& does it leave any residual behind.I lay down a heavy cotton towel down then a floor at on top of the towel so my floor doesn’t get all dirty
Do all of your housekeeping appliances, like vacuum cleaner, egg boiler, microwave, refrigerator, etc run off an inverter? And how many watts is the inverter please?
My company just put me in a 23 Cascadia on the week of Christmas, I'm Regional flatbed (curtainside) but noticing electrical glitches with my truck. Have you noticed any with yours? Looking to transition to tanker myself, just doing my homework searching for companies.
Do y'all deliver gasoline too? Do y'all train drivers to get CDL A I have CDL B with passenger endorsement just curious i have been driving city buses for 10 years now im looking for a change
U complained that people shouldn't put the landing gear in the holder so it doesn't get stuck. You put yours in the holder when u dropped your trailer!!!!!
Hope all is well with you brother! Keep up the great work! Keep being safe! An quick question can you pick your own truck as a company driver as well with prime? An if you ever pass through Northern Kentucky an stop at a truck stop on a weekend hit me up I’ll buy lunch!
You will have to be paired with a trainer for 25k miles. That’s combined miles (you and your trainers miles) hope this helps. Typical time 4-6weeks OTR
@@jeffshield6088 Well, since you asked. Simply release the trailer brakes and fully apply the service brakes on/off rapidly. I've been driving 20 years in New England and deal with frozen brakes ALL the time in the winter. This works in most situations except the most extreme ice buildup.
I tried the above before pulling out my hammer. I usually let the air pressure build up and pump on them breaks a bit and fixes the ice build up but not this time.. solid layer of ice covering the brakes 🤙💯

Good stuff young you put safety first a that's always a good thing

That’s smart
Man I’m glad your pushing out more videos lately! Keep up the good work man and keep grinding!

It happens every time 🤦♂️
I’m one of your videos can you show us how you do your log book ?
Rex should be a trainer * cough cough😮💨😮💨* 😂
😂

Great video, very good job editing, I’m retired and miss the over the road, all the best to you and yours.
Thanks, you too!
Lovin the videos Rex! Keep it up and stay safe and warm. Maybe get ya some cardboard to put on the floor to keep the crap off of your floor.
You got yourself a new subscriber. respect bro. Keep hustling out there.
Rex get some floor mats it will count down on the cleaning
If you want to pull tankers there is one in south Florida and some smaller ones around that pay real good
Doing trucking to fund my dream ❤❤
Floor mats they work great
Yes that’s on my list lol
You should get some floor mats
If you have rubber floors go by some rugs
I think this will help you a great deal. Get yourself some rubbing Alcohol pull your trailer break out take the red line off put some of the rubbing Alcohol in the line it's best if you lay it down on the cat walk then put the red line back on then push the red trailer break in and then push the break pedal when you don't here anymore air.

Just trying to help out a new driver. Good Job Brother.
We might’ve had the same trainer if youre talking about who I’m thinking about.
Get the "Redline" floor mats. Never scrub again.
Appreciate the tip

Simple Green all purpose cleaner, good stuff 🔥
Freight shaker floor mats in the company store well worth it
He's on the crank watch him Clean.
How does the automatic transmission handle the surg!!!!! With manual 4:34 , we could limit it slamming
I don’t have a problem with an auto tranny pulling tanks. After a bit you get a feel for when it up shifts and down shifts etc
Cool video rex!
floormats wil heb you to get the dirt out fast!
The locals around Dubois made sure I knew that it was pronounced “dewboys”. Lol
Lol
Hey man you should buy a boot cleaner that you can install on the step before you get in
Yeah I had one on my Pete need another 🤙💯

i was not expecting a Friday reference.
Do all of your housekeeping appliances, like vacuum cleaner, egg boiler, microwave, refrigerator, etc run off an inverter? And how many watts is the inverter please?
My fridge runs directly to the batteries. Everything else runs off my my power inverter (1500 watts)
@@truckingwithrex Thanks for the info. You are well prepared for life on the road.

Formerly circle city twash… not bad place

Never set your trailer breaks in the winter
If you have driven in any kind of moisture and it is below freezing and you set your trailer brakes they will freeze the brake shoes to the drums
How's prime reefer division. I have been thinking about coming over rex
I’ve talked a few reefer drivers and they like it 🤙💯
U complained that people shouldn't put the landing gear in the holder so it doesn't get stuck. You put yours in the holder when u dropped your trailer!!!!!
Correct when it was empty NOT loaded 🤙💯
Hope all is well with you brother! Keep up the great work! Keep being safe! An quick question can you pick your own truck as a company driver as well with prime? An if you ever pass through Northern Kentucky an stop at a truck stop on a weekend hit me up I’ll buy lunch!
Company drivers are assigned trucks (whatever is available) basically
Wouldn’t mind go cross country with him.. cute 🥰
Thinking of coming to Prime Tanker. I had my CDL A with all endorsement for six months, will I have to do TNT and if so for how long you think?
You will have to be paired with a trainer for 25k miles. That’s combined miles (you and your trainers miles) hope this helps. Typical time 4-6weeks OTR

Inside your truck is a mess
That’s why I cleaned it lol and welcome to pulling inedible tankers
😁😄😃😀
One day you’ll learn that beating on the brakes with a hammer. It’s only something that rookies do.
Why don’t you. Enlighten us.
