Correction, you wasted valuable Co time sniffing the tires on the new machine 😂! However, you're like a Bloodhound identifying cleaning and shining compounds! Lol! Love that door in the nose of the trailer. That was a genius idea on someone's part. Be careful balancing up on the load. Meanwhile? Light a candle and say a prayer those who just lost their jobs. Great video you're showing. Enjoy your vacation.
Mike you are definitely one of the best in the business..Please get yourself a Hockey stick so when the load is spilling off the sides you can use it to trim the excess..God forbid if you ever fell off the Trailer..Its just not worth possibly risking your life..Peace 👍
Wow, look at that fresh clean dirt. Dark, rich and clean dirt. LoL Looking good Dumping the load and keeping the truck/trailer clean. TMC trucking company have a day cab?.. never seen that . Mostly see the Sleeper type Petebilts that have. Need a shovel with you in the box.
@@TheBostonTrucker They have a depo in Boston? Wow, They do a lot of Flatbed work out of Buchanan, NY. But they do a lot of other hauls too with flatbed. pretty cool.
Good morning sir, hey the new shot from behind the cab is pretty cool. Imagine 7”straight pipes singing. 😂 I cringe at what trucking has become. What once was a great career with so many adventures has become who’s next that can hold the wheel. Have fun on your trip ✌️and grease my friend.
First time on here and very impressed with what you do on a daily basis.And, hopefully there are plenty of jobs for the laid off Yellow freight drivers in Massachusetts.
Great video ! Do you think that the tri axle dump truck in the beginning of the video was the Pelletier company out of Maine that they did that TV show on ?
You guys have a CHU613 or was that a Superliner in your guys paint scheme in the first part of video? Mike, do you have a link for that shami or terricloth you use that's big?? Looking good & is that gal still driven the Star Car??
They certainly did! I have it on the lowest and have to turn it off from time to time. That never happened before! Absolutely love the machine it even have a scale to give me an idea. So happy to work for an amazing company like this and with guys like mike with years of knowledge to watch and learn from. I’ve taken things mikes taught me since I started and still use/remember them each time I’m loading. Kind of funny I’ve learned just as much from some of the drivers as I have from other operators.
There can a be world of difference when it comes to driver skills and experience, but that doesn't usually matter as far as results are concerned; the freight still gets delivered on time and money is made. Most of the time, a guy with a months experience can deliver freight just as effectively as a guy who has thirty years experience and a ton of skill. The experience and skill isn't a big factor. You just need a guy with average intelligence who can steer a truck and trailer around. It's not a job where your skills show up in the final product. It's unfortunate, but I can see why guys hit a wage ceiling.
@@TheBostonTrucker What I meant was, a trucker's effectiveness comes down to whether or not the freight is delivered safely and on time; which is fully accomplished by drivers whose skill and experience levels vary greatly. I would not say an inexperienced driver in an automatic truck is anywhere near as skilled, or as good, as an experienced expert truck driver; but shippers and receivers just want the stuff delivered, they don't care how skilled the driver is beyond that. What I'm getting at is: a driver's skill doesn't really show up in the final product, which is a safe and timely delivery. Take a guy working in finish carpentry, his skills are shown in what he makes, and the customer sees it too; the final product tells the tale, and he's paid accordingly. A trucker's skills are not seen or appreciated in the same way.
Get a shove on that trailer I know you don’t have a shovel endorsement on your c.d.l but you can hire a lumper to shovel your canvas cover as always big guy Be Safe!
Truck is looking real good 😊keep up the great videos! God Bless.
Thanks, you too!

💖💞💕💗 Amazing and nice video Mike 😊🥰 i enjoyed watching ❤❤
Thanks so much
Enjoy your vacation 👍🏻
I really enjoy watching your videos. I was involved in a bad semi accident 6 weeks ago. While I'm healing your videos, really remind me of what I do.

Great video enjoy your time off👍
Its funny, watching your videos so long. I know exactly where you are. The station you were cleaning your side boards is in Westminster.
Awesome video Mike thanks for the ride along, it brought back great memories from when I ran a dump trailer back in N.Y.👍👍
Good to see it coming together I hauled concrete out of north lights site in Marlboro
👍
My kind of video. Lots of driving and work action. Great video, thanks Mike.
More to come!
happy to see a new truck coming but it will be hard to get out of your ole 900, beautiful site to see!!!!!

Where is the Def tank on the new truck
I do not miss that 495 S to 290 W interchange at all.
worst interchange probably in the states
Have a blast Mike, take care 🇦🇺
Enjoy your time off Mike!

Oh,oh,oh, O'Reilly's. I thought I was watch the Vice Grip Garage channel for a second.
Great video Mike. You have marvelous camera shots. Also, you are very meticulous on your equipment. Have fun in Fla.
Thanks, will do!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Bonjour,👌💪🏻🙏🇫🇷🙋🏻♂️
👋👋👋
and it still has the plasic on the seat BRANDY NEW NICE
Still does. I’m never taking that plastic off. Took me 8 days to take the towels off the pedals just did today and it was killing me to do it.
Great video !
Do you think that the tri axle dump truck in the beginning of the video was the Pelletier company out of Maine that they did that TV show on ?
You have an M drive in your truck too, Mike drive😂
In Mahbro, in Mahbro, in Mahbro......... I ate there last week dude!
Oh awesome
Excellent video, as always! Just curious... What happened to The Cat Trucker?
He's doing his thing.
How many times have you seen that with those automated transes braking down. Very few manuals except for driver error
I avoid that mess at all costs, bad enough they have Rt 20 by my house all torn up too.
If you walk your load out just alittle bit you won’t bury your back wheels
Thank you
You guys have a CHU613 or was that a Superliner in your guys paint scheme in the first part of video?
Mike, do you have a link for that shami or terricloth you use that's big?? Looking good & is that gal still driven the Star Car??
It's a Superliner that we sold last year and that big towel isn't worth it in my opinion because once it's wet you have to take it home and dry it.
Hated when they did that
🤦
Im a new sub here to your channel great video by the way, but out of curiosity may I ask, how did you injure your left hand?
Thanks for the sub I appreciate it! It's just a birth defect. Stay tuned !
@@TheBostonTruckerOk thank you my friend.
I was out of work since February and I have 40 years experience and I just got a job two weeks ago experience don't mean anything
Congratulations though
18:39 You sure they opted for the AC? Lol

I agree except the part where a guy with a months experience is as good as a veteran of the job.
