    By the time I was 16 in 1976 I was driving a 1966 Autocar, a 1959 IH R190 (both had 5x3's) on a farm and a '72 GMC cabover box truck delivering furniture afternoon's and Saturdays. If a guy wanted to get that '69 'Z-28 together he had to have some side hustles. I'm lucky mine had to do with trucks. I get it, Man.

    Hey man its not just your weird passion lol ive been hooked ever since riding shotgun as a kid in an R model dump truck my dad drove for an asphalt company near me also lol and i tell you seeing these videos inpires me to start a channel here also. Im 30 now but ive always told anyone thats asks my best childhood experiences were going to work with my dad and heck just sitting shotgun seeing him shift threw the gears hearing the jake moving equipment going to the material yards u name it in the 84 RD or in a 99 sterling that was new at the time which he drove that for a long time. Now hes retired from the truck game for a while but ive had my eye on few rigs id like to scoop up especially if i could find that 500 horse redtop sterling lol hey you have amazing content brother keep it up man its an awesome channel!

    Man hearing you talk about you and your dad bumping heads and you quitting the business brings back memories of what i went through . My dads friend offered to sell us two of his older dump trucks mine was / is my profile picture. He offered to sell us a 2011 and a 2012 international work stars with the crap force for $85 k each no interest and he had the contracts hauling asphalt. My dad put up $65k upfront and would pay for fuel until we got on our feet . Our hourly rate was $71 a hr but we soon realized it wasn’t enough . We we’re always fighting and i had enough and quit went back to the mega i worked for before . He lasted 1 more year then sold his truck and went back to working for a friends construction company . $71 isn’t enough when you break everything down

Been crazy here and I have not had much time to comment but have been watching! I Know where ya come from and get it and the love for trucks and equipment, just sucks where it is today compared to the 70s and 80s era. Convoy is great and I love it along with Bandit too. Some of my favorites are Steel Cowboy, High Balling and White Line Fever too and can watch over and over, love the old rigs, the dress, the old buildings, offices truck stops MUSIC etc.. Just a different time and world..! Keep up the great work and wish you much for continued success from one creator and truck lover to another!

    Absolutely love watching your videos with you and your dad. You guys crack me up. didn’t really get along with my parents and went to live with my grandfather when I was a younger fella. he had an older Kenworth I believe that was a twin stick. He always said you weren’t a true driver until you could make a twin stick scream down the road he was always trying to teach me something about trucks or driving but unfortunately I was a salty kid and didn’t want to hear it. I was curious if you could ask the old Time drivers that you know a question he used to tell me in the deep snow in a truck, you always want to check your brakes every 10 minutes never really got a straight answer out of him but then, again, I never really asked. Was wondering if you might have some insight on that on older style brakes on the old Riggs I appreciate it. Thanks for the great videos. Have a blessed day.

    • @Only4Trucks
      @Only4Trucks  Рік тому +1

      That's awesome! We can definitely relate to each other! And I try to make the twin sticks scream! What a blast it is. And my opinion is the stab braking method in the snow would be to keep the truck or trailer from coming around and jack knifing. Letting off the brakes will allow the wheels to roll and straighten itself out. Also it will just prevent from skidding and speed picking up while sliding. But I'll be sure to ask my dad and Diane in a future video to allow you to hear our opinions bounced around on that subject! I personally hate driving in the snow!

    My dad started driving back in the 60’s and I grew up riding with him in his 1965 needle nose Peterbuilt. As the years went on he would ask me questions like, what gear he was in and I got to know it over time. He would ask and I would be able to say exactly what gear he was in, bad move on my part because the job he claimed to be to difficult for me to handle was growing increasingly easier for me to know what I was doing. He didn’t want me to succeed was my take away thought. He stopped asking me to ride with him altogether. He purchased a 1985 COE that he would not let me touch. Whata jerk he turned out to be. We stopped speaking to eachother.
