As a young boy back in the Sixties I so wanted a job that involved the use of a CB Radio, Trucker, Delivery Driver, etc. I have full respect for all drivers, it’s a tough job.
I just got back into trucking and am amazed at how much has changed! I can get used to the ELDs and it really is nice having Google maps and other nav aids but we are completely isolated from each other now! CBs were our lifeline and was invaluable source of information to know about accidents, closures, and what not!

Another trucker got my attention (arm waving, no CB) and he led me out of that mess but I really would’ve loved to have avoided it altogether! Seems to be quite a bit of “conference calls” with Bluetooth headsets but I haven’t gotten that all figured out yet.
The hum when it vibrates perfectly sounds like ww2 bombers doing a raid, absolutely perfect sound. Its really does suck nobody uses CB anymore, one of the safest tools for truckers on the roads and its only used in yards and truck stops. Only reason I have mine on 24/7 is accidents on the I-17 in Phoenix can mean life or death during summer months.
@@Truckinlife im a big fan of the channel, just found you after doing a whole marathon of trucking vijas.

I am an aspiring truck driver. I’m sure a lot of you here right now are too. So I must say that when you all get out there someday, buy a CB Radio. You’ll lose your mind if you don’t have one. Not only is it a great tool for getting road information, but you may have some friendly company along the way, which will help ease your loneliness that you’ll inevitably feel at some point.
This video just popped up, and I thought, I know that truck! I picked through my phone and two photos popped up if it, that I took of it at the Baytown TA fuel island a few months ago. Yes, inspite of cropping, the driver, which I assume is you, still is in one. I had to snap them. Beautiful Rig! I don't blame you for nosing in. My current truck has been hit 5 times in 3 years. $16000 in damages! It's both sad and irritating how few give a heads up about anything on the road, or reply when giving a heads up over cb! There's a different breed out there today. Retirement can't come fast enough!
@@customparts6723 im sorry my friend i truly relate you know i miss it so much I tend to catch myself driving behind anything diesel just to smell the exhaust of life I use to have. Be well and God bless...
Looks like it’s not just my radio that doesn’t reach over that patch of median. Guess our antennas aren’t pointed in the right direction. It’s not like it was over 20 years ago when I started driving. Nice ride you have!

@@Truckinlife k,, lol I was just watchin ur Cat purchase video ! Why u say pay for it myself,, so I won't be locked Into a contract to pay back the schooling??
It’s so it reduces the chances of getting truck hit. It also cuts down on noise from other trucks, reefer trailers and apu’s. As well as my apu not bothering people. Tanks are short so I don’t stick out.
I drilled a hole in the top of the dash that all my wires are ran into. I used a mic cord extension I ordered online and it runs down through the dash and out the bottom of the cup holder where the mic is plugged into it.
Dang, LOVE your Peterbilt! What year is it? One of the things I've wanted to do for a bit is to get a 1992 Pete 379 and make it up like Optimus Prime in the first 3 Transformers live action films. (Also be a good way to avoid the ELD mandate and emissions requirements...👀)
Been a trucker for 43 years. First time i watched your video was very impressed with your operation how you took care of your equipment. As bad as i was and still am .

Hey, great videos, I wonder what you are hauling? My guess is milk or diary products but in another video I saw a tanker in the yard with hazmat stickers, that couldn't be dairy. Anyway, love your truck and thanks for the videos!
I made my underbill GoPro cap mount today. It works okay except that the thumbscrew blocks the view of my left eye. Tomorrow, I will get an M5 bolt to replace the thumbscrew, and all should be good...except how ridiculous I look with it on. Thanks.
@@Truckinlife Yeah, I was just looking at your 9 Nov video and I could see you didn't have the big black thumbscrew. I also think your eyes are further apart than mine. I will use my cap primarily for DIY videos that I make. I was just looking at the Lowe's web site and they have several different lengths of M5 bolts, so I will buy the shortest one that will reach. BTW, I am enjoying your channel even though I am not a trucker. I do travel pulling a 27 foot travel trailer, which is all I want to try to maneuver.
The lease purchase program is no longer in place. I’ve had my truck almost 6 years and I’m still here... it’s had it’s ups and downs but I like what I do and I’ve made a living. I very rarely go west of i35.
Sad how drivers get mad cuz they ran into a backup but for 10mi you be tryna tell them bout it. Wish my health was allowing me back our there. Got to love a good echo. That pete sounds nice as well

R U aware of driver facing cameras the trucking industry uses to monitor drivers while the truck is in motion to observe driver behavior & if so how do you feel about this. As an independent driver, which I believe you are,are you affected by this?l would be interested to hear from your point of view on this subject.
Look at the thumbnail and you’ll see the one that’s in my truck. Lol. I’m not a fan of driver facing. The company I’m leased to doesn’t require us to have the driver facing side on so I have mine covered.
CATS are more temperamental, easier to break, Etc. From what I hear, they don’t make truck engines anymore. At least not new ones but they were rarely ever found in company trucks, mainly O/O’s. I drove one for a while but preferred the “Big Cam” Cummins myself.

I always wondered how a driver in a long nose truck can drive sitting Sooooo low to the floor and still see whats right in front of him. I been driving slope nose trucks and still sit a lot higher in the seat than a lot of guys I see
I'm 6'3" but no matter how high you sit in the seat you'll never see what's directly in front of the truck out to about 20-30 feet. You just have to stop when you are about to not see it anymore.

I always wondered how a driver in a long nose truck can drive sitting Sooooo low to the floor and still see whats right in front of him.
I been driving slope nose trucks and still sit a lot higher in the seat than a lot of guys I see
I'm 6'3" but no matter how high you sit in the seat you'll never see what's directly in front of the truck out to about 20-30 feet. You just have to stop when you are about to not see it anymore.
