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 🙏🤙
My husband puts all the clothes in first too. lol. I like to start the water and get it soapy then put in the clothes. We have been having this battle for years now. I love watching your videos because you always seem to look on the positive side of any situation and that is a great personality trait to have. On a side note: in the 3rd grade I had a little crush on a boy named Rex in my class and I thought he would think it was cute and like me more if I gave him a cute nickname so I started calling him Tyranosaurus Rex. He did not. Our romance never blossomed. lol.
Wow thank you for filming your route in Oskaloosa Iowa. I actually lived in Oskaloosa Iowa for two years in 1981 thru 1983. I recognized the town square when you turned on to Market. Also recognized the old Fairway Grocery Store that was across from City Hall when you passed as well as the Library Awesome to be able to reminisce thanks to you Rex
That’s 1 of my fav Tankwash. Run by celadonia. That driver lounge used to have gym. Looks like they added more chair and took off the gym . Cedar rapid Iowa.
you can set the gatrmon to avoid cities before you leave if you tap on secondary route even apple car play let's you do that garmon does it too used it long time ago though
Bro I found your channel looking at videos ab prime thinking about coming to prime, I have made my decision to come to prime and get my cdl when I turn 21 June 27th, but I also found a new channel I can watch while working or whatever (currently a heavy equipment operator since I graduated high school 3 years ago
31:45 They didn't want u spraying ur own tire's down hiuh Rex which think is not needit cause there where' going get dirty again had go back for sane load next day be safe aswell on roads.
Hey Rex! Just started my food-grade Tanker training after 30,000 miles Reefer training. (I live in South NJ and want to stay closer to home) Figured food grade regional would make it possible to be home more often. My upgrade is coming up and it will be time to get a truck. I do have a question...is the mid-roof tractor a better choice for tanker? Thanks!
I think the mid-roofs are solid, also you get less wind affect blowing you tractor / trailer around when it's really windy! Also you can go under lower bridges, some shippers and receivers require mid-roofs for loading / unloading. 🙏🙂
What's the spraying about? Avian Flu? Craziness! Then again one place I go to your whole truck is washed when you leave. And we had to get Lantern Fly training and certification. As you say, that's trucking!
How long does it take for a tank wash and are you paid while you wait? Also, if it is not a food grade product is it safe to open the hatch and look in to see If there is any residual material in there?
@@truckingwithrex Thanks for responding to my question regarding time to get a tank wash and about opening the hatch. I am really enjoying your videos about the in’s and out’s of tanker deliveries. Never realized there was so much involved with it. Keep it up , and stay safe out there Rex.
Enjoy your videos, you seem to be good at your training and driving job! My wife and I just got our Texas learners CDL. I am looking at Prime and Wilson. We want to team drive together once we are trained! Which do you recommend for team drivers? Also when you have to drive empty to get loaded or washed do you still get paid?
No you ain’t if you can drive stick and can move a pencil can answer simple questions you’ll be absolutely fine most amazing actors and famous artists have disabilities never stopped nobody

Man I sure do like that little flat top truck… I hope you keep it… Your videos are never boring like most truckers…..Besafe bro
That beeping would drive me insane.....snip snip snip 😂
I agree, problem is most companies would flag it as not up to their safety standards.
Yeah I can’t snip snip 😂

Rex when you say you are picking up eggs 🥚....... can you elaborate on that. Like egg whites, yolks??
It’s inedible eggs that come out of chicken plants. It’s use to make dog food and treats.
How long does it take for a tank wash and are you paid while you wait? Also, if it is not a food grade product is it safe to open the hatch and look in to see
If there is any residual material in there?
Washes take 45min-2hrs depends on the type of wash, if they dry it etc… it is safe to open it up to check for moisture prior to sealing
@@truckingwithrex Thanks for responding to my question regarding time to get a tank wash and about opening the hatch.
I am really enjoying your videos about the in’s and out’s of tanker deliveries. Never realized there was so much involved with it.
Keep it up , and stay safe out there Rex.
Im curious about the midroof freightliner. If possible could you tell me the 4 and 8 week mpg? Thanks and keep up the great videos.
How u liking the garmin. I use both as well. Only thing trucker path pulls up the small mom and pop truck stop.
Yeah I 2nd that. Imho I think truckers path is superior to garmin however the DEZL can be a really useful tool! I prefer truckers path hands down 🤞🙏
Hammer Down 😳😳😳
What Garmin device are you using and do you recommend it for big rig navigation?
Man I’m here at Spencer right now, they’re taking so long to unload. There is a line here waiting on dirty tanks.
The winter time is worse, waited 37hrs 1x and unfortunately isonova will not pay layover…..

Hi Rex when are you coming out with a new video
How many truck stops have driver lounge 😬👀
I’d say 40%
Why forty percent
@@stephenkamau8848 I don’t know the exact numbers just guessing not all truck stops, tank washes have a drivers lounge just some
i delivered to a farm once and got sprayed for avian flu doesn't make sense to me
What type of Garmin gos did u buy?I roll with a Garmin Dezl 700 OTR Commercial & as long as you keep it updated it’s on point.
Garmin DEZL OTR1010

How is that internet box from T-Mobile works?
Love it! Better than hotspot and cheaper lol
I've always wanted to be a truck driver but I'm to dum to become one. With my learning disability.
No you ain’t if you can drive stick and can move a pencil can answer simple questions you’ll be absolutely fine most amazing actors and famous artists have disabilities never stopped nobody
Question…what is your suggestion for practical and comfortable shoes to drive in?
Me personally I use Asics or Columbia shoes. Had some hey dudes which were super comfy but the tread didn’t last long
So far how do you like your new gps
It’s a very useful tool but I prefer truckers path app just my opinion
Rex, can you run 48 states on both tanker side?
Tanker runs about 15-20 states
@@truckingwithrex ohhh ok thank's Rex
Be safe playing in traffic bro 😂😂
😂
Question Rex do prime do a hair test ❓
No it’s urine test but they didn’t test me when I did my DOT physical not sure if that was a mishap or what?!
Next time just interlock the 2 seals and write them both down.
Did he say they didn't have the coffee he don't want
Why is he.planning to give the coffee to some he don't like
Anyway me and you can have a phone conversation at a near time.
Do you get paid for doing the tank cleaning as a lease owner?
No we don’t get paid to wait for tank washes (part of the business)
@@truckingwithrex Thanks for the answer. I appreciate your response ! :)
Rex can you get us a new code for your discord?
New code for discord? What’s that? I’m lost lol
@@truckingwithrex I thought you had a discord?
@@truckingwithrex if so I’m talking about the discord link
Driver's please invest And buy a trucker Atlas don't trust a GPS used it as a reference and compare routes
lol, it's true. work is for jerks
Was your name on ig
I don’t use ig sorry bro 😢
Iam a very big fan of yours.
Keep trucking
