In regards to putting the truck in the garage, the truck was more at risk of damage being hit in a truck stop parking lot than me carefully backing it in with many people watching. I do this as a better customer service for our company as well as the airport personnel. It is a choice I make and is why I do as many of these as I do. Its always best to make the customer happy. The difference is in the details. Instead of commenting why I did what was beyond my duties, question how you can improve your service.
"instead of commenting why I did what was beyond my duties, question how you can improve your service" DAAAAMNNNNNN ya'll need some Ice for that burn cause daaaaaamn
Screw the Customer. I'd do it just because I get to drive a fire truck without being a fireman and not get arrested like anybody else would..perks of the job like this are the best😉 🤣I would have noticed the screen for the backup camera was on while I was backing up though and that if the guy knew that the beeping meant the tanks were empty he could probably figure out most of the rest on his own while 😴. Own up and take your walk of shame then edit this for a Bloopers Clip and use the part where the bald guy almost bursts out laughing after you tell him you don't know how to turn on the backup camera, that's the best one by far😁
Not only do they want you to be the delivery driver, but they want you to park it specifically where they wanted, and give them a detailed tutorial on how to operate the darn thing! Stryker needs to put you on their payroll.
Spent 23 years in the Army & learned to back in everywhere. It’s so everyone can scoot fast if the need arises. My late Mother was amazed I could back up so well I back my Santa Fe in w/out much problem as I have markers set out to know how far I can go over & when to stop. I tend to back up better than I pull in.
I preferred to back in. You knew you could always get out. I had people marvel at my backing. But anyone that had as much backing up as I had could do it also. Practice made perfect!
On July 20, 2015... United Technologies, owned Sikorsky Aircraft business, and sold it to Lockheed Martin, for $9 Billion In CASH... now that's A payday... Everyone Be safe driving... Sunny and 63 today in Arizona.
The Jet is Manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace. Serial Number 1101, Model G-IV. Certificate Expires 1/31/2022. Was Manufactured in 1989. Owned by Greenfield aviation llc. out of Westport Connecticut. Now the Engines are Rolls Royc.
Been following for a month or so. So glad to get that genuine youtuber vibe again. Love a normal dude making good.. real content. That’s all we ask for

Great Job and deliver of the Airport/Crash Firetruck Sir,you are correct sir on the cost of just one Airport fire truck,the ones we have at the Atlanta Airport cost about over 1 Million Dollars each.
“Keep Right Except to Pass” THANK-YOU !!! In CA. most of the trucks don’t use the right lane even in light traffic and stretches of no inter-changes. 😖😖
I remember when I was in truck driving training school, they taught us to never use the engine brakes nor exhaust brakes in inclimate weather. That went out the window as soon as I got my first job placement. I first started for Youngblood Trucking in Knoxville at the time, my trainer said most of that in the books is a recommendation..lmbo..love the videos and the commentary
driving on 95N in Connecticut and 495 in Long island is pain in the ass,the local guys do 45mph on the center lane watching movies on their phones and ipads and when you try to pass them on the right they fucking speed up or you get merging traffic thats why I like running through there at night time
That truck through that door... well done. You could put a camera out the rear of Orwell pretty easy eh? Just for sh#ts and giggles or whatever. There's kits for trucks that are pretty inexpensive. :-))
Your truck sure sounds good it looks good and it looks like it drives awful good so I guarantee you take care of it you get the motor rebuilt when it needs it you get to trans rebuild when it needs it you get the rear axles rebuilt when it needs it I mean everything and keep up the good work keep that thing in good shape it is a beauty
Man I use to do that hauling Airplane refuelers in & out of airports Coast to Coast for Avfuel, Phillips 66,etc. I got spoiled on that freight ,never ever a wait as my freight was always a huge necessity . Even went in & out of Andrews AFB a few times. What an awesome 😎 bunch of guys there from the Marines that handled the security detail to the guys that handled the daily task with Air Force 1 . Always a blast with zero room for Error . Good Luck To Yuh , Keep it between those lines as All Fire Trucks get backed in Driver ,where you been ? THAT GD BEEPERS GOTTA GO ,STICK A SCREW DRIVER IN THAT SOB
Well done Sir on your customer service, most guy's I'm sure would have dropped it and gone. I always try to get loads delivered just where the customer wants so long as it is reasonable. Respect sir from the UK.
A few years ago , while I was with Boyd , I got to deliver some erector garage door building sets from Carrollton Georgia to an airport in lower Alabama... pretty beat being on the run way and having them off load the product...it was a small airport in a rural area
His first helicopter the VS-300 on its first flight was able to fly left, fly right,go up and down,backwards but not forward. Hope had some work to do but did get it right. As a hobby I fly. I appreciate you bringing the first responders of a airport the truck. I hope it never gets used.
As an aircraft mechanic I can’t understand why the golf stream was taxing with number two engine thrust reverser open? Also all the comments about Sikorsky and his contributions to helicopters are well known but not many people mention the fact that he also designed and manufactured flying boats for Pan-American world airways in the 1920s and 30s oh and by the way excellent video from a subscriber and a truck nut
they want it backed in because it makes fgor a quicker response toi an emergency and yes you have the mirrors but dont forget the new back up cam on these types of vehicles.
My first stop is off that same exit 30. Thought I saw you a couple of weeks ago headed south over by pilot/secondi bros truck stops. It could have been Bridgeport or Westport though I cant remember. No fire truck or you would have really stood out with that bright yellow. Love the sound of that ol' cat
When I had a spotter for backing a 6x6 crash truck, I would ask that they stand near the threshold until I was far enough in the building. Nice job. Guess you haul a good number of these trucks if you are close to the Oshkosh plant.
Haven’t been to Alabama yet. You know you’re here when the gravel roads are better than the paved ones. Took ALDOT two years to rebuild the downtown section of I-359 & four years to add an additional lane to seven miles of I-20/59. Been trying to get a bridge built for 2-3 years trying to get cute w/arches over a major road. Got one arch up only to discover it was warped & a year to figure out what to do w/it, both parties pointing fingers. More major road work upcoming.....Sigh
No way would I have backed that thing in the building. You scratch it you bought it 😱. Drive it off the truck, park it and hand them the bill if lading to sign. It’s theirs once you put it in the ground! You took waaaayyyyy too much responsibility by putting that thing in their building. That sounded like Igor himself talking to you about the mirrors😳
when I worked shipping and recieving I met a trucker that once made a delivery to the white house he said a secret service agent rode with him with a gun in his face the whole way
I know it’s a bit more money in Maintanance, but having 3 windshield wipers like that looks like it’s able to wipe just about the entire windshield! I always get frustrated with vehicles and even the heavy equipment I operate. Great big pieces of glass, and the wiper only catches 1/3 of the field of view you need.
That is a municipal airport,,no one on that garage drives,,that particular truck? Are those manufacture in Oshkosh? I could imagine how bouncy the ride,,you're a pro,,I have seen many heavy hauler loading/unloading heavy machinery,,themselves
The job ends when it hits the tarmac and the guys had a walk around. Better hope you don't need that fire truck as you land , they all seem to be clueless. 😀😀
Sikorsky, plane and helicopter constructer, was from Poland i believe, same country your surename came from - Feszcak ( sz is commonly used there in Polish language). Im from Czech Republic, which neighbours with PL.
I agree with your comment. Customer service sometimes involves doing a little extra at times. The customer appreciates the effort, in most cases and may request you when they need service. Keep up the good work, in spite of the naysayers, they're the ones who will lose business in the long run.
In regards to putting the truck in the garage, the truck was more at risk of damage being hit in a truck stop parking lot than me carefully backing it in with many people watching.

Respect 👍
"instead of commenting why I did what was beyond my duties, question how you can improve your service" DAAAAMNNNNNN ya'll need some Ice for that burn cause daaaaaamn
That little extra service pays dividends! Only those of us that have done it realize how much it is worth.
I think those garage folks are his relatives. Great crew there.
Screw the Customer. I'd do it just because I get to drive a fire truck without being a fireman and not get arrested like anybody else would..perks of the job like this are the best😉
🤣I would have noticed the screen for the backup camera was on while I was backing up though and that if the guy knew that the beeping meant the tanks were empty he could probably figure out most of the rest on his own while 😴.
Own up and take your walk of shame then edit this for a Bloopers Clip and use the part where the bald guy almost bursts out laughing after you tell him you don't know how to turn on the backup camera, that's the best one by far😁
Not only do they want you to be the delivery driver, but they want you to park it specifically where they wanted, and give them a detailed tutorial on how to operate the darn thing! Stryker needs to put you on their payroll.
Truck is looking great.. I love the triple wipers. They really just do something for me. Favorite part of those old pete models
That is the 362 identification part for the most time
I love the sounds of the Jake Break. I grew living by the 5 freeway. I miss the sound now that I don't live near the freeway. Ty fer the vidio
Awesome customer service by bringing the unit inside.
Spent 23 years in the Army & learned to back in everywhere. It’s so everyone can scoot fast if the need arises. My late Mother was amazed I could back up so well I back my Santa Fe in w/out much problem as I have markers set out to know how far I can go over & when to stop.

I preferred to back in. You knew you could always get out. I had people marvel at my backing. But anyone that had as much backing up as I had could do it also. Practice made perfect!
You parked it PERFECTLY. A few days later THEY probably ripped off both side mirrors pulling it out..wanna bet. LOL!
I have never sat and watched an entire trucking video without skipping through it

" a pothole on road ahead " I laughed sooooooo hard all of 95 in mass, CT and NY is one big pothole.
Connecticut is my home state, lived in Bridgeport Ct until 2004 when I joined the military.
Good job at the airport, at least you didn’t get wet have a great one see ya next time.
"were taking it to whistlin diesels place and we're gonna trash the hell out of it". Lmao I love whistlin diesel
I wonder if that Striker floats? Think the empty water tanks are enough buoyancy? 😅🤣😂
You should photo shop that jet on to your lowboy trailer to make it look like Orwell is hauling it, that would make a great picture
Been following for a month or so. So glad to get that genuine youtuber vibe again. Love a normal dude making good.. real content. That’s all we ask for
LOVE THE STRIKER STEVE. A MAGIC BIT OF GEAR MATE
im from northbranford connecticut but i now live in corpus christi texas much warmer down here why i stayed beautiful country up there though also lived in glens falls ny and castleton vermont so i do know what a cold winter is god bless my friend
When we have things delivered to our airport never would we have you drive it anywhere haha. Drop it off and see ya!
I hate driving in Connecticut too. Bad traffic and old narrow roads. The good thing is it doesn't take long to drive through it.
An Oshkosh no less. I loved the old plows on my SAC base. Pure beef!
I work on an airport in East TN that’s close to a Norfolk Southern rail Depot. Trains, planes and helicopters all day long! Not enough cab overs tho.
29:16 That's a nice looking 1989 GULFSTREAM Jet
I wouldn't mind a ride for sure!
Great Job and deliver of the Airport/Crash Firetruck Sir,you are correct sir on the cost of just one Airport fire truck,the ones we have at the Atlanta Airport cost about over 1 Million Dollars each.
Igor Sykorski was the builder of the Corsair fighter plane and the development of the Helicopter and he was from Russia. My back yard lol.
Whole video was interesting! Thank you for sharing!
“Keep Right Except to Pass”
THANK-YOU !!!
In CA. most of the trucks don’t use the right lane even in light traffic and stretches of no inter-changes. 😖😖
I've delivered to YYC, YVR and CFB Comox, yielding right-of-way to a 747 at a 4-way stop is an actual thing.
LOL at the guy asking you to change the mirror. Like dude, I just deliver them. You ask the UPS guy to put your Ikea bookshelf together?
🤣🤣

Orwell's 3406 sounds so pretty! Reminds me of a friend that had a 3406 in a big Cl-9000 Ford cabover. That deep voice sings a great song!
"Cruising down the street in my 64"👊🏼👊🏼😆😆
Love that part of the video!
RIP EZ E
My ringtone
Orwell's jam - so it's "84"
Your wipers work really well for running on air! My Transtar 2 COE had just two that were always outta sync!
The rear view camera comes on when you start the engine. It was on when you were in the cab, and it was running. I seen it on the video.
driving on 95N in Connecticut and 495 in Long island is pain in the ass,the local guys do 45mph on the center lane watching movies on their phones and ipads and when you try to pass them on the right they fucking speed up or you get merging traffic thats why I like running through there at night time
I watch your channel all the time you're a very educated truck driver but I like the fact that you're old school I kind of miss it
That truck through that door... well done. You could put a camera out the rear of Orwell pretty easy eh? Just for sh#ts and giggles or whatever. There's kits for trucks that are pretty inexpensive. :-))
Your truck sure sounds good it looks good and it looks like it drives awful good so I guarantee you take care of it you get the motor rebuilt when it needs it you get to trans rebuild when it needs it you get the rear axles rebuilt when it needs it I mean everything and keep up the good work keep that thing in good shape it is a beauty
I wish i knew you were at the darien rest area, Thats 5 minutes from my house. I would have come and picked you up and taken you out for Dinner!
Someone took pictures of it there, tagged me on Instagram.
I also knew a trucker that delivered office furniture to the old world trade center he said that wasn't much fun either
A pothole?.... really just one? 🤣🤣🤣 Where I'm from, it's nothing but potholes. It's only smooth pavement for 8 months after they resurface the roads.
Your wipers work really well for being air powered! My COE Transtar had just two that were always outta sync
Man I use to do that hauling Airplane refuelers in & out of airports Coast to Coast for Avfuel, Phillips 66,etc. I got spoiled on that freight ,never ever a wait as my freight was always a huge necessity . Even went in & out of Andrews AFB a few times. What an awesome 😎 bunch of guys there from the Marines that handled the security detail to the guys that handled the daily task with Air Force 1 . Always a blast with zero room for Error . Good Luck To Yuh , Keep it between those lines as All Fire Trucks get backed in Driver ,where you been ? THAT GD BEEPERS GOTTA GO ,STICK A SCREW DRIVER IN THAT SOB
They sure have some crazy paving for that aircraft parking apron.
Those Oshkosh Strikers start at 800,000 grand for the 4x4 model. The 8x8 monsters cost 1.2 million.
I shut off the beeper first thing. Every rig that’s the 4th thing I locate. They get to park it.
That was a HELLUVA backing job. I think they wanted you to do it, just so THEY wouldn't ding it up. Nice job.
I love that cabover, Peterbilts' always looked there best as cabovers.
the front view from driver is amazing very good very good !!!!
Someone probably already mentioned this but the backup camera was on in the right screen. They usually come on when in reverse.
sir you have a personality called larger then life & an iconic truck. so you never have to worry about your videos being "boring"
Good to see you taped the exhaust closed. The Turbos will spin in oiled otherwise and burn themselves up.
Wow......cant say I'm familiar with who your talking about.....but once again nice video...fan from Oregon.......
The three wipers are really COOL
👍👍👍
I gotta say driver you got one Beautiful rig
Sikorsky was from Russia, Came to the US after the Revolution, He was the leading pioneer in making helicopters real.
Sikorsky aviation
Highly respected man you are sir to be welcomed by our military . Thank you for posting this video .
Great video hero. Drive safe.
The backup camera turned on as soon as you put it in reverse as I noticed for a quick second on one of those display panels
Youo certainly showed your professional driving skills backing the Striker into the garage !
Well done Sir on your customer service, most guy's I'm sure would have dropped it and gone. I always try to get loads delivered just where the customer wants so long as it is reasonable. Respect sir from the UK.
Love that sound of gearing down , I wish you would go down one more on those off ramps....
I love that noise of your truck
A few years ago , while I was with Boyd , I got to deliver some erector garage door building sets from Carrollton Georgia to an airport in lower Alabama... pretty beat being on the run way and having them off load the product...it was a small airport in a rural area
Man if I were you I would've never backed into that bay. My job is to deliver that's it.
His first helicopter the VS-300 on its first flight was able to fly left, fly right,go up and down,backwards but not forward. Hope had some work to do but did get it right. As a hobby I fly. I appreciate you bringing the first responders of a airport the truck. I hope it never gets used.
Drove by you in the truck when you were over at that truck stop
Not sure how I stumbled upon you but I'm glad I did, love the vlogs, greeting from England, stay safe out there driver 🤙
To say 95 is terrible is an understatement. From the design to the drivers. Nice work! Keep safe
As an aircraft mechanic I can’t understand why the golf stream was taxing with number two engine thrust reverser open?

I flew in there a few times as a student pilot many years ago out of Islip.
Pneumatic wipers are good for slinging ice off the blades.
Love the three wiper blades you got going. Amaizing how you can learn so much from veteran truck driver. They have a totally different mindset
That is one nice looking Gulfstream IV. Not looking bad for a plane new in 1989, is it.
Looks like rest stop by exit 11, just past the scales at exit 4
I don't give that truck a week before its scratched/dinged. Great video as always.
they want it backed in because it makes fgor a quicker response toi an emergency and yes you have the mirrors but dont forget the new back up cam on these types of vehicles.
I'm from Danbury,ct. Igor Sikorsky 1889--1972. Invent.had Sikorsky air craft..in Stratford, ct. Started helicopters..😁😁😁
29:00 I spy; the driver of the G-IV forgot to retract the thrust reverse buckets! 🤦♂️🤦♂️
He was From the USSR, and he made huge leaps in helecopter development. and help design helicopers for the US military, after WWII.
N900EG is a 1989 GULFSTREAM AEROSPACE G-IV. 22 seats / 2 engines. Owner: GREENFIELD AVIATION LLC WESTPORT , CT, US
I was surprised that you had to back the unit in. I'd have takin' half the building down. LOL!!
My first stop is off that same exit 30. Thought I saw you a couple of weeks ago headed south over by pilot/secondi bros truck stops. It could have been Bridgeport or Westport though I cant remember. No fire truck or you would have really stood out with that bright yellow. Love the sound of that ol' cat
You would think they would want to park their own truck. Great channel, keep them coming!
When I had a spotter for backing a 6x6 crash truck, I would ask that they stand near the threshold until I was far enough in the building.
Nice job. Guess you haul a good number of these trucks if you are close to the Oshkosh plant.
Another fine load delivered safely enjoy ur video s you have a overwhelming personality.interesting and funny character
Yup the old I95 in CT. The never ending construction project. Welcome to Ct.
I live here

Better hope you don't need that fire truck as you land , they all seem to be clueless. 😀😀
I’m with you about 95 in CT. Avoid it if at all possible. 684-84 at Brewster NY is my preference. Great rest area in Danbury
am better off dealing with the traffic on 95 than dealing with the NY Dot on 84
Sikorsky, plane and helicopter constructer, was from Poland i believe, same country your surename came from - Feszcak ( sz is commonly used there in Polish language). Im from Czech Republic, which neighbours with PL.

Love your work
