A few weeks ago you indicated that there would be changes to the channel. True to your word there were/are. I was skeptical at first but you have won me over. I now have a deeper appreciation for the 'man' that is FSC trucking. An unexamined life is not worth living it has been said. You certainly do examine your life, your values, and the progress you are making toward achieving your goals. Thank you for making these changes - it adds to the overall content which has been good since day one.
You have the best videos. I also appreciate your occasional "snarky" comments, you have a good sense of humor. You've turned me into a cabover person, I'm always on the lookout now.
I loved the Astro's.
Steve I love the new videos now. They have added so much to the quality and gave us a new look at the man behind the wheel of Orwell. Keep up the good work. One last thing, I could not by no means do what you, Gentry, and many others do in this day and time and that is dealing with peoples driving disabilities. I can't drive 40 miles in my pickup without getting a very bad case of road rage. My hat is off to you all. Have a wonderful trip with your boys while you can.
Every time Steve hits those brake knobs I hit like. As should all the rest of you.
Salads are a great choice for food, but it's the dressings that have all the calories and fats, good quality Olive oil plus a few herbs, or olive oil with chilli, is a great alternative.
Many sedentary jobs as you state, probably only need 1500 calories, as opposed to 2500 for a manual worker.
Orwell is sounding great .
Thanks for sharing.
It’s crazy man re: the fuel prices. Was 6.49 over the summer here in Maine, went down to 4.99. Went to fill up the other day and over night it was 5.69. I just run a PowerStroke pick-up. I can’t even imagine how crazy it must be for the amount of fuel Orwell consumes! Well, I don’t have to because you usually show us filling up, haha.
Ever since I found your channel I have been watching your videos and I enjoy every single video
Nothing quite like the sound of a good old Cat.
Stay out of Pa I seen fuel today for $6.09 and not a chain truckstop.
Love your videos keep it up my friend
Took me two minutes to realize that wasn’t you in the reflection of the window at the start of the video just another dude in his truck next to you 🤣
You too, huh? 😉
Just a suggestion on your salads if you want to mix your dressing just put the lid back on and shake it a few times it will mix it good. That it what I do and it works
Steve, don't let the idiots get you down! That box truck was extremely unprofessional
Also employees , got have more people to clean up . And I was about to say that famous 2 word statement ,but I don’t want to get block by UA-cam I really enjoy watching your channel , Gentry and other . 😂
😮👍👍 and talking about Fuel price that most everyone don't know how the Ships that bring all your consumer goods to port. Those Big container ship diesel engines have to switch over to different fuel before they enter ports. Yeh on the open international waters. They burn the cheap inexpensive heavy fuel. But they have to Switch over many hours before they enter ports to the more expensive low sulfur diesel fuel. And you and I know just who pay's for that. Just amazing. I remember when back in the early 1970's, we used to bitch about how expensive diesel fuel was at 17 cents per gallon. 😂
I'm too young to remember the 70s, but I've heard stories from my parents.
With the new speed limiters are we all gonna follow each other same speed. That will cause back ups and a headache lol. With the eld there not safe. Paper logs are the way to go.
Another great video Steve. Stay safe out there and enjoy your time coming up with the family.
This is how every truck driver should be. Nice and polite to the customer and go the extra mile to make sure they are happy ! Atta boy FSC!! You get an A for the day
When i drove my first tractor I drove truck was a cab over. An loved it, I was fresh out of driving school with a company that were fazing out there cabovers. Everyone else did not want to drive a cab over to get out on the road to make money. The mechanical engine was great. Until you
Got an open hot cup of coffee in one then cups. That’s when all coffee was going into empty bottle of soda. An throw out that stupid coffee cup.
You got a clown in the driver seat of that box truck that was close in the thumbnail. LMAO!!!!🤣
Hate to see the tomatoes go since they are high in good stuff as they contain a great deal of Vitamin A and Vitamin C. This is primarily because these vitamins and beta-carotene work as antioxidants to neutralize harmful free radicals in the blood. Stay safe my good man!
Hey Steve good video, I am the same I get the salads at Loves with boiled eggs to have on top for my lunch or dinner at times. Sometimes hard to get good healthy food on the road for truck drivers is a so true statement.
A little kindness goes a long way!!
I'd be proud to drive for you Steve.
Your a great person.
Great sense of humor.
Love your videos.
And you and Orwell !! ♥️
Travel safely.
GREAT VIDEOS.......... i just love the way you have cameras at all angles around your truck...........makes your videos more interesting to watch and stands out from the rest..... and is also a security feature in case of accidents or incidents around you.....
I am a retired long haul trucker from Canada i gotta tell ya the sound of a caterpillar engine makes me wish i was still out there. Stay safe watch out for the idiots!!
Great video Steve really enjoy all the camera angles and your commentary. That straight truck driver wow that was close good thing you turned there at the last minute. Your mirror may have wiped out his if you hadn't turned stay safe Steve.
Respect from the UK
Finding allot of stuff to eat at truck stop's is not easy to grab sometimes but they are improving stuff that u are eating. Plus i eat at Subway all the time or Church's Chicken. Or if i am gone for 2-3 day's. My wife will fill the fridge with home cooked meal's. And neighbor's and friend's will save there plastic container's like butter bowl's and other stuff so i can use to take food on the road. And when i am done eating just toss them in the trash. And we always stack up on plastic fork's and knives for me to take on the road. But i always grab them at truck stop's to use. I always buy big case's of bottled water and also buy one liter's of mountain dew and dr pepper at Sam's Club's all the time. I bet u are happy having the APU installed before the weather got cold. I love the APU in the new truck that i purchased. I still have Black Dog 79 KW that my late dad had. It will never be sold. My oldest son he drive's it once in a while. And we will be using it in the Christmas Parade. I did not know it also maintains the battery's. That is why i was not wanting to get one. I told friend's hell my generator charge's the batteries also. And they said so does the APU. I watched there videos on there page's. And i was like dam i might bet me one. The truck i brought it already had a APU system installed and the dealership showed me how to operate it and what all it does i was like wow. Went to the bank got a cashers check. And i purchased the truck and my wife she was happy. She was like hey at least u have tilt steering and i was oh hell yeah and i used it. The steering in the 79 is the same way ur steering is Steve. Hell i would have done ur exhaust if u was here quick and easy. I use the same clip board u use for paper work or document's. I hauled snow blowers like that one up to Michigian and Iowa all the time. We don't get allot of snow like people do up north. We get enough to go sleeding.
Great content as always keep up the great job
Take care brother till the next one and be safe on the vacation praying for y'all 🙏
Hei Steve, Awsome, that you drive Peterbilt cabover from 1984. I have not been to south dakota sins 1985. My syblings and i and mom & dad lived inn Mitchell, south dakota. We lived there for 3 years from 1982-1985. Thats long time ago. Great content you have. Hope you have a good time in California.
Wind never stops blowing in SD and since then, it has snowed a bit.
Great video and have a safe trip and vacation and God bless from GA stay safe
Great Service Steve
Excellent video Steve!👍👍💪
I have been off for 2 years from cellulitis in my leg. I usually go between 240 & 260lbs. I'm 300 now. I'm 61 years old. Been driving for 37 years. Most of my work was regional with a few years of real otr experience. Handled a lot of freight. You're right to a point. Just climbing in and out of the truck, handling equipment and freight moving around helps. If you can eat better? That's a big help. Everyone tells me to focus on protein. Good luck!
FSC Trucking, Loved here in England.
Can confirm what he says about losing weight by burning more calorie's than you intake. I've been working in a warehouse position since Feb. and eat pretty much nothing but junk food and protein heavy food items. But since I don't eat nearly as much as I used to as a child I've actually lost 30-40 pounds in the last 8 almost 9 months. I will agree that I need to eat more greens but they taste like ass in comparison to a nice juicy burger or a big kc strip.
Be safe out there and enjoy your trip.
Hard boiled egg sandwich on toast is good.
Amazing videos, keep them going
It’s called supply & demand free enterprise Steve
Very cool video Steve! I didn't realize you could get a truck into the park where the battle happened but depending on how heavy I am I normally get off on that exit and run 212 over the 85 I believe then drop back down to 90 in South Dakota. Kinda hilly but a very cool ride! Next time I'm out that way I'm definitely stopping! I'm really digging the "changes" to your videos but I honestly liked them before too. It's odd I drive too and watch UA-cam videos of people driving. Lol. Looking forward to the next video and have a blast with your family on your trip!
It was a good thing you had multiple cameras rolling in case he actually sideswiped you!
Great videos PLEASE don't change your videos too much.
Steve nice u r trying to eat healthy tim is doing great he put out a video blessings always
My theory on the one coal roll is... the injectors are not giving a good spray when they are cold, once the engine pulls hard the combustion chambers and injectors burn clean as they are at operating temperature. It does not mean they are worn out or bad, just aging like the rest of us...
I enjoy watching your videos
Even some of us younger mid 20s guys wouldn't have a problem driving without cruise control + having to do paper logs. I know I personally wouldn't mind it at all, but I've loved cabovers since I was a kid, and if I have to sacrifice cruise control to get into one I would in a heartbeat.
As I am watching this Steve, I am sitting down to breakfast at the Iron Skillet in Stony Ridge, Ohio by I80/90 lookong at the Love's across the street and diesel is $5.83 credit and $5.78 cash. This is just crazy. Be safe out there brother hope to see you and Orwell out here sometime.
Steve You might like to try a can of Tuna drained mixed into Your Salard topped with Your favorite dressing naturally , VERY Tasty if You like Tuna with Your other accoutrements...Hope You ENJOY !Stay Safe & Keep that Kitty Rolling !Missouri Paul 👍🇺🇸👍🤗🌞👌😎👌 👀👂🤞
I live in Georgia and I hope we have a mild winter so far it holding the 70s Another good video Steve KEEP ON TRUCKIN 👍 🇺🇸 🚛 🐘
Up here in the north greenhouse effect has taken a grip already !!!😕😕😕
I've been a CDL driver now for almost 30yrs. And most recently started watching some of the driver/ owner operator videos of life on the road. Over the road trucking inspires many to dream that its just a big fun road trip when we all know that's not the case. FSC you are old school with "Orwell" and that's bad ass. Hands down at the end of a hard day of loading and chaining it can at times be a task just to swing up into the seat of a cabover. The one I first cut my teeth on was a 1986 Pete 362. Yours at least has power steering! Lol
Your video takes the trophy over all the other bloggers due to the fact that you're for real, trucking life isnt all big road trips and fun, it's a business and a serious one at that. With fuel prices and all the regulations being an owner operator is nothing short of a miracle anymore and you do it with pride and superior service for sure. Keep up the great videos and keep the dirty side down. If ya ever roll thru Sioux City IA.with a grumbling tummy hit me up I'll buy breakfast at the last of the old train car diners here in town. Til then keep on truckin!!
Never say any thing about the way you do any thing brother I've never ran low bed are step deck and looks like your doing a fine job to me keep it up.
If they put that mandate in I'll just sell my 97 international and work on my 88 Freightliner cab over and put it back out on the road it's got a mechanical 350 Cummins in it.
Dam that day cab delivery guy didn’t care for you one bit.
Might try using one of the 360 cameras on your setup along with your Go pros...
Would give some great shots during your travels...
26 days of diesel left in the USA. Shit is about to get real!
I'm impressed
Keillor trips in many of them have great meals you can heat up. They also have nice showers. I remember when he opened his first store in LaCrosse Wi. Live in AL now and wish they would expand south
Good preface again !! cheers . 😐😐😐
Steve l like that you are talking more on your videos .
Good Mornin Brother Great Videos Really Glad Your Ok Neat Load Ima Volunteer to go on car crunching Detail Lol I ride a H-Din dirty jersey like You once did i certainly Understand Stay Safe God Bless You & Your Family Merry Christmas
Yeah some of us don't get that gear shifting exercise. You made me laugh on that one.
You’ve probably mentioned this, but what kind of mileage does Orwell get as a mechanically controlled engine? Is it more difficult to be profitable with an 80’s era truck?
It probably gets about the same mileage as most of the other trucks. Maybe a bit worse since it’s not very aerodynamic.
Let Tim work on it. He will turn it up
Like to see that thing put together bet it's a monster in the snow
Good night from Morocco sir 🙌❤
drove cabovers for years without ac used to stay out 6 months at a time happy trails to you.
I do a lot of my own cooking in the truck buy a salad from time to time when I find one that looks fresh
Salad with thousand island and boiled eggs is good. I've ate a million of them....but not for breakfast Hero. Not for breakfast.❤Damn South Dakota DOT must have caught a good sale on orange cones and barrels😀Damn you Hero, you looked right down at that contravercial wheel just to stir shit in the comments. ❤Superior Service. Another load delivered ASAP in excellent condition. YOU THE MAN HERO. YOU THE MAN❤🐘🇺🇸
hey Steve I had a thermo king tri-pack apu on my company truck. my apu didn’t keep my fuel in the tanks warm at night. so this winter with the apu running at night you have to be careful of jelling up your fuel tank crossover line.
I have a fuel heater in the line from the tank to the engine.
So about price diesel... big gas stations where you can park your rig, they have big lots they have to pay more taxes ,insurance is way higher because of rig traffic. Also cause you don’t have many choices to get diesel n park. A friend of mine who owns a little gas station told me this. Is this true ? Don’t know ,I remember when you got fuel in this little gas station where you got full service cheaper fuel ! What you think ?
Steve you should start carrying a Bick Lighter for when your lock on your door is frozen you can still get inside because all you have to do is heat the key and stick it in and then you can get inside of your truck and I hope that you will get to the Yuma Dunes you'll have fun their
It also helps you, and a place like Oshkosh truck looking good. I think that the customer like that.
With all that old school pure mechanical engines stuff that you touched on in regard to the Cab Overs, does the same logic 100% equally apply to the same model year conventional tractors that other drivers have the same passions in preserving? Steve, I ask this because of my curiosity for the preservation of the history of All Trucks from the 1970's and 1980's. That little box truck boob reminds me of something that happened to my dad in the San Joaquin Valley part of Central California on the Northbound CA-99 in the spring of 1981. My dad took me (8 years old), my sister (15 months), and our mom with him in his employer's 1981 or older Ford Box truck (Conventional, ten speed, air brakes, 2 axel with 40 ft box with lift gate that required a then CA-CLass 1 CDL) from their base in Elk Grove to deliver home construction supplies in SoCal. The applicable part occurred during our return home. Central Inland California is notorious for a weather phenomenon known as "Tuly Fog.". There was a Segment of the CA-99 that turned into a regular two lane road with traffic lights in 1981. I remember this because of a specific day that we caught a red light with what seemed like say a 1/4 mile visibility in the fog. Dad saw this tractor trailer pulling a flat bed trailer that gunned his motor when we both got the greenlight. The visibility dropped to 10 feet before the flatbed driver cleared bumpers and cut us off in the intersection, causing our left front quarter panel to hit the right rear corner of the other driver's trailer. The explosive sound of that fiberglass hood scared me worse than my little sister.
It's like Jim Morrison said, "People Are Strange."
Greetings from Baldwin WI! Dammit wish I would have known sooner! Would have bought you dinner!
Looking good! I love me some salad with Eggs in it!!!
Love your work Steve yes it would hard to eat healthy on the road how long have you being driving
Bro you in the US have real diesel, while here in Sweden we have Grata Tunberg diesel.
Good beautiful morning brother
My name is Justin from Gloucester VA I like watching your videos
22:06 was as close as he could have got without ripping off your mirror!
Steve, you're working on the principal that you can't fit a speed limiter to a mechanical engine that's not true. Speed limiters are mandatory in Europe on anything built from 01/01/86 onwards, therefore mechanical. There were several companies who supplied them both as OEM and as retrofit, they run of the speedo drive, some worked better than others the best were a company called Econocruise they worked just as with an electronic engine that is rock solid on the set speed, others used to "hunt" around a bit. We hated them when they came in, but you do get used to them, they make the job more relaxed, that's how fast it goes and you, the despatcher and customer all have to learn to live with it.
I refuse to "learn to live" with Big Brother.
Dumb question. Can the apu have a remote switch on the dash to turn it on and off. Seems like it would be handy.
Steve I am looking forward to seeing you and the boys tear it up on the dunes!
It's been a good while since I was over the road. I health went down hill since then too. But when I was on the road the two places I knew that I could a meal and that was Petro and Flyin J. Do they still have their resturants?
Pretty common straight truck driver can’t drive for crap
There is a lot more sweet crude on the market which is used for gasoline, than there is sour crude, which is needed for diesel. Freightwaves has been talking about this. So… diesel is more expensive right now.
And there is a reason for that.
@@fsctrucking Yep our (blank) for brains at the DC rest home pissed off big oil.
Your way of eating much healthier than McDonald's. Also healthier for your wallet lol
Wish they still had a real restaurant in them
Going to California? Have fun Las Vegas here.
i think the are younger generation people out there that will drive old trucks.
I think the younger generation feels they are entitled to automatic transmissions. A bunch of softies😑
I don't think a driver can possibly figure out how to tie down our freight if a standard transmission is confusing.
Gas, here in NJ 3.83 a gallon. Two days ago it was 3.63.
Hey Steve we’re not put a flex pipe all the way to the exhaust yes it’s not solid steel but it’s a fix that I’ll get you through a couple years
tht truck looks really easygoing to drive. u would be more of an influencer than a content creater based off of ur topics.
Good evening from Iraq
2nd
At least you are trying to eat right!
Steve you really need to upload the Mud flap app. On your phone where you can get diesel fuel discounts had a lot of truck stops it will help you to save a lot of money
My wife packed an ice chest with food to last me 4 to 5 days. All home cooked stuff. Kept me from getting food poisoning on the road which happened more than I want to remember.
Actually Kwik trip is the largest in the country. But I know the owner and he has always been pro trucker as it’s where he started with DB Reinhardt years ago
