My obvious observation is if I were you I wouldn't take anymore loads that require you to leave your trailer The last two times have turned into a nightmare It doesn't seem like it's worth the aggravation
I agree. I think Justin mostly took them because the load availability was so tight or not what he deemed to be worth it. But these trailer drops have been awful. It seems they're primarily designed for major carriers many, many dry vans.
i agree with original poster. If have to drop it for long hours unload or load, stay close to it if can and since your own trailer, have a mounted camera on it so can see what is happening when not present. Fun of trucking!
I know you talked about adding a gps tracker to your trailer. I think you need a trail cam on all 4 sides, too. Totally ridiculous that happened. They need to compensate you and immediately unload the trailer, once it’s movable. The lot management needs to reevaluate and correct that lot. It’s a mess.
Sorry that happened to you, Justin! I used to be a long-haul truck driver before I got married. You handled this situation A LOT better than I would have at the time. Thank you for your constant example of patience and kindness. Doesn't the receiver have cameras on their lots? Seems like they would. If they do, might be worth checking out to see who hit your trailer.
I love a good looking semi, not only is it just a good looking truck, but it's a sign of someone taking pride in their life style. Trucking is not a career guys, it's a way of life. Keep rolling.
That's why we go to Joplin every year. Doesn't matter what show its like a family and meeting new people in the industry is what it's all about. Great video.
Justin sorry to hear about your trailer. T&p’s on that. And prayers for u and your family. I live in bowling green ky and my grandfather was a truck driver for 15 years and if I had the resources I would come and fix your trailer for free. You have helped and touched so many people on this channel and your wife’s channel and 2bb.
Wow, your calm demeanor is amazing. I teach anger management and most people have to constantly work on themselves to have such a calm demeanor like yourself. I’m very impressed on how you stayed calm and pushed through a bad situation. I will be using this video in my class.
You and your wife are unbelievable. You both are a joy to watch and listen to. I'm not a trucker, but have started to watch some You Tube videos on the subject. I have been watching you for about a month. Your attitude towards life is truly amazing and has taught me a few things...and I'm 71 ! You handled your trailer dilemma like a true pro and gentleman. Your wife and family are sure to be very proud of you. I look forward to your videos. Stay safe.
You NEED to have camera installed on your trailer that records 24hrs to the cloud. Also ask for footage from their cameras around the lot and the building.
Sorry to hear about what happen to your trailer! Truly a Blessing that you found a couple of guys that helped you with your trailers. Thanks for the video. 👍🏽🇬🇺🤙🏽
THE PERSON YOU HAD TROUBLE WITH WHEN YOU PARKED THE TRAILER MAY HAVE DONE SOMETHING THERE CAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE THE DAMAGE COULD HAVE BEEN FROM A HAND SLEDGE HAMMER LIKE YOU WOULD USE TO CHECK TIRES.....SEE IF THAT LOOKS LIKE IT CAUSED YOUR DAMMAGE ,
Those trucks are amazing. Who WOULDN'T want to go to work everyday rolling those! My sinful obsession are the cabovers. So happy to see those done up so nicely and still around. And YES to the cameo of the Black Roadrunner VNL!!!! She still looks good! And may God bless those brothers that helped you out. Still good people around and it helps to restore my faith in us as a people!
Justin...you HAVE to show me your zin ways of staying calm!! In what is already a nightmare load...you must also contend with your trailer being hit! Ugh, been there before in my younger trucking years but I wasn't as...ahem, calm and nice.🤣🤣 You are amazing, brother. Wonder if you recorded unhooking that night? Would go well with your claim against the company. And I find it highly dubious that a company that large moving that much freight doesn't have cameras with good quality shots of the yard.
What a shame . No security cameras in the area ? 19:27 , A combination of a pimp's ride who loves orangecicles ! Finding someone to help you along as far as finding parts to replace the damage was awesome . Now " that was trucking " .thanks for sharing film of the show trucks for us that didn't go . Y'all be safe .
Well now ......ain't that a hole in the boat ! Almost takes a bit of shine of the truck show. Try to feel blessed and have a good day anyhow. I pray insurance takes the financial responsibility for repairs, and you keep those big wheels turning!
I worked for Kenworth back in 90's in Amarillo, Texas and I sold a guy a bunch of parts for a 60's Kenworth narrow nose truck he was restoring. Love seeing all those beautiful trucks.
Too late now probably but I'd ask if they have security cameras covering that area and see if they'd let you look at it. Damage is still done but maybe see how it occured. Idk just a thought. Safe travels.
Check the trailer to the left of you that wasnt there when you dropped and check his back left side . You could do a quick fix on the park line so the company could move it to get it unloaded .
Hi y'all Love the truck show. My dad was a trucker and his handle was Yankee back in the 70s and 80s. He drove a Peter belt because of my brother name was Peter. I hope you get your trailer fix by them. Good luck and God Bless.
I've seen it when trucks are trying to do a u-turn. The back corner of the trailer hits the glad hands and electrical box because they stick out the farthest. Could of been one of the yard trucks. 🤔
TW the end was amazing you rockin those dance steps you gave me a big smile with that!!! Much love to you guys!!!! So happy you got someone to fix your trailer!!!!
@@JohnHallgren if someone hit it would of damage the trailer also that was the yard goat faults was hooked up and pulled forward yanked all that off see it happn that's why I never drop my trailer any where
Great video Justin. Hope you and T Dubs have fun!!! Enjoying life!!! Thats what its all about. Even blessed to get help with the trailer repair. That what living right does for you. YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW!!!😇
Sometimes, tragic happens in our lives that can really jeopardize us financially in big or small ways proving for our family. But God shows his power in those times. You having a great attitude about all this really shows that. Cause we all know that you are disappointed but you refuse to let it get you down. God bless you and your family Justin.
Another great video. Definitely have to try to get down to MATS one year to experience all that fun n glitter. Sorry you had someone hit your trailer and mess things up but I always believe that things happen for a reason. Your reaction to this was perfect.
That was sorry of driver hitting the trailer and running off. Glad those guys got you in touch with someone that could get it fixed. Stay safe y'all 😎✌️
The receiver (or you) can move your trailer. Hook up to it with a truck, then use the spare bolt on each brake canister to release the tension that the springs are applying. That will allow you to then take the trailer to a location where it can be properly repaired. Obviously, you need to take into consideration the lights.... but t can still be moved to the dock, and at yard speeds, it can be done safely. Certainly make sure the wheels are all chocked when parked without a tractor.
Sorry to hear about your trailer getting hit. I’m glad you were able to find somebody to be able to help you get the parts and get it repaired and I’m glad you’re having a fun time have a good rest of the weekend!
We went past MATS on our way to East Texas from Marysville, Ohio! I was sending you good vibes, but didn't see this video until now. Catching up after a week of Spring Break in 80° temps!
The great thing is you have video proof. FYI this is what Mega carriers go through all the time. They never know who does this damage. Their driver, another driver or a yard dog.
Great content and glad you had a great time at the show, and you didn't let the damage ruin your day! It takes a real piece of $hit to damage somebody's equipment and just leave it like that as if they are not responsible. I hope Karma gets them tenfold.
Justin tell “Make Sense” l saw him in your group tell him l’m the guy who suggested the same APU that you had installed afew months ago l’m 73 yrs in pretty good shape but you guys make me feel like getting back out there but with all this technology trucking is a whole new world compared to 35 or 40yrs ago just awesome “l’m Jealous” keep up the Good work and stay Safe all of you!!!
@@JustTruckin you handled it way better than my firecracker temper would have. Hard to believe they never hit anything else on the front, what would really set me off, is that they put the broken gladhand on top off the broken electrical box, so they bloody well knew they did it.
Hope u get it fixed Justin kinda funny How it was hit. Maybe someone took a hammer too it. I can’t see a truck Doing that damage without hitting The box. Good luck sir
Did you see a custom built diesel powered motorcycle/trike when you were inside of vendor building? If you did my cousin's husband works for the company that built the trike. He was one of the fabricators on the build. Hate it you're trailer was damaged! I was a O/O years ago and that's just part of owning you're own. I know someone took care of you because that's just how people in the South roll! Be Blessed and Be A Blessing!
Hey Justin sorry to hear about your trailer but that happened to me when I went to DC For target that ripped off my airlines Thanks for representing All of us at Mats
It is really nice to find young people that get it. Trucking with all its faults is best job on earth.Not bashing other drivers,Wife has a cool vibe and engaged in the business. Even withe trailer messed up didn’t start pointing fingers and being an ass. Well done guys. Being professional. Can’t believe lot didn’t have cameras. Must h not have very much crime.
Again, this is why I would never let anyone move my trailer. I’ve had people here argue the point with me. But I’ve seen way too much in this business. In cases like this it can take forever to sort it out, and even when it gets sorted out, they’re either not liable, deny doing it, or ignore it.
You was down here in Louisville, I'm born and raised here, still haven't been to the MATS yet. There's a place on Poplar Level rd that has all kinds of truck stuff, and I think are open on the weekends, if you're ever in need and here. Hoping to get my cdl one day.
Yard jockey could’ve turned at an improper angle trying to back under the trailer, you pissed someone off real good and they took to it a hammer, or by perfect storm tractor trailer hit you just enough to damage the lines and avoid hitting the trailer. Regardless, it’s amazing how people lack the decency to fess up and would rather run.
This has been the nightmare load from day one. Reminds me of my days as a mechanic, taking in work to make a little more $ and it bites me in the butt so bad and I end up losing a lot of time on it when I could've just been home or onto another job.
And that can trailer next to you is all beat to heck too. I hate to lump an entire industry into it but most of the guys who pull cans are clapped out trucks with not exactly the best driving records.
Man that sucks about the trailer. Hopefully you get it fixed up soon and get back on the road. There is some beautiful trucks there. Nice to see large events like that going on again. Hopefully we get to have those same things here in Canada this summer 🤞.
Hi Justin I have been busy am going to catch up one your videos love the truck show trucks makes me wish I could go back to trucking. sorry to see your trailer was damaged hope the receiving company will fix it for you or the company that is incharge of the yard. There should be cameras positioned throughout the yard where they can see if an accident occurs and who is at fault, the lot needs to be reconfigured to make more room even if it means less trailers in that yard.
That would definitely be my last drop as an o/o leave that mess for the company carriers, but I would definitely feel bad for the company driver that was assigned to pick up that trl in that condition, a holes used to leave me busted lights and blown tires all the time ugh
I not sure that was done by another truck. I wonder if someone hit with a hammer or something. God bless you for your integrity in how you dealt with it.
A beautiful show of trucks the backbone of the freight industry. A lot of varieties in style and paint schemes. I love the long hoods, never been a fan of coe trucks. Lots of beauty and big bucks. Jason, keep your truck, get the visor installed and keep it going.
they wiped the whole thing clean man. cannot tell you how pissed off that makes ME!!! happens to my company all the time at drop locations. ignorant bastards. sorry ya gotta deal with that man.
It's like going to a place like this .....theirs more then a bunch of truckers that truck , there's high level craftsmen and women , business people ,and never ending stories and awhile lotta great hearted people
Justin, I know you have a good heart and want to believe it was an accident. But, that looks like intentional vandalism, probably a hammer type object. Sad to suggest it, but you did take the last available parking stall when you dropped off. If you recall, you were backing way back to get to the spot while at the same time, the other truck pulled up intending on taking that spot. That driver parked so you couldn't back in and then disappeared for a while so you couldn't ask him to move his truck. Once you did find him, he did move. Who knows how long he had to wait to find a parking spot after you left. Maybe, and I hope not, but maybe he took out his frustration on your trailer.
Wow that’s crazy for someone too hit your trailer like that and don’t take responsibility for it, it’s Sunday afternoon hopefully they got it fixed for you , good Luck 🍀
That' sucks that they hit the trailer!! Glad they didn't do more damage though because they could have easily totaled it with a load in the trailer like that depending on the impact on the front of the box you can stress the steel etc.. Anyway looks like your having a good time! Glad you found some one to repair it! I hope you get this nightmare load sorted out and hopefully reimbursement from GE.
You could back off the slack adjusters so your shoes a release from the drum or use brake chamber and screw it in the brake so it release the slack adjusters and have trailer move temporarily until you resolve the airlines connections
Good follow Good no matter what people come through for Justin remember the gas situation Justin go gas, now this trailer situation keep being a good person justtruckin Good will follow always.
I drive ltl in Greensboro, NC and we go to GE in Mebane. Their lot is horribly tight and over crowded as well. So much so that a few years back one of our drivers was killed by another company's driver when backing.
I hate this happened! Looks from the end of this video, it did not spoil your trip, and no one was feeling any pain. I hope the company takes care of the damages. What have learned from watching your videos is that drop loads suck. Keep us posted.
Sorry that happened to ya! That’s infuriating. I been there before though. Came home to where I park my truck once, and I had my Lexus GX460 parked where my truck is parked, and I get there to find my entire front end on my GX ripped off. Looked like an ICC bumper went through the front bumper and the headlight. No notes or anything. My insurance ended up having to pay it.
Wow Justin sorry about the trailer but thank God for video. I just don't know how you can take that so calmly, I am almost certain I would have a long stay there myself. The good thing about that is my food and lodging would be free. I Don't know if I could handle those steel bar's. God Bless the both of you and you done very well handling the situation. Please tell Sam and the others hello. I watch all of you religiously
I noticed loads of the trucks are covering the frame rails, but I loved the one with hinges and storage..lol..I wanted a candy red truck, international, because of the grill, or western maybe.. but, using flakes in the paint with maroon pinstriping under the clearcoats..lol.. and a rainbow with a cowboy hat somewhere on it..lol..

I think that load will cover the cost of the heater. Hope everything works out. I'm sure he'll have to fix it himself and seek reimbursement.

I know that plant! It gets real crazy over there. Especially for live loads! I hate dropping in a crowded lot .... smh
I’d put $ on the fact that a yard jockey did that! Good Luck Justin!!
Yard jockey in Pueblo got mine!
Yard dogs are notorious for doing u-turns and misjudged tail swing!
Any cameras in the lot?!
Yup. Hit it with the tail of the trailer swinging around or caught it with the nose if the trailer.

Looks like a good hit with hammer.
No way a truck/ trailer hit it like that.
I agree with this. No way a truck or trailer did that damage. Somebody hit it with a sledge/hammer
Is that normal? It's scary there could be such rotten people in trucking.

Well, they ALMOST missed it. Couple of fittings and get the air back. Don't need lights to move it in the yard.

Great minds think alike 😉.... exactly the same thing I said I would do
You gotta appreciate all of the hard work and dedication that went into all of those trucks out there.

Facts
@UCIvUXZMX4gjlKVOMxJSfZlw the trailer is still where he parked it, so it wasn't the yard jockey.
If his wheel didn't lock it will happen if he has and air lift 5th wheel
Such a shame. And you can bet whoever did it will not fess up. Does the yard have cameras that might capture it getting torn up?
@@threynolds2 how do you know a yard jockey didn't hit it while moving another trailer?

It was probably the guy that was trying to park in your spot in the last episode he jacked up your electric system knowing it would mess up your time

You're a great guy. You handle adversity like a pro!
Man that sucks about the trailer. Hopefully you get it fixed up soon and get back on the road. There is some beautiful trucks there. Nice to see large events like that going on again. Hopefully we get to have those same things here in Canada this summer 🤞.
Hi Justin I have been busy am going to catch up one your videos love the truck show trucks makes me wish I could go back to trucking. sorry to see your trailer was damaged hope the receiving company will fix it for you or the company that is incharge of the yard. There should be cameras positioned throughout the yard where they can see if an accident occurs and who is at fault, the lot needs to be reconfigured to make more room even if it means less trailers in that yard.
Thank you Justin for showing some of the trucks, awesome👍
That would definitely be my last drop as an o/o leave that mess for the company carriers, but I would definitely feel bad for the company driver that was assigned to pick up that trl in that condition, a holes used to leave me busted lights and blown tires all the time ugh
Much respect and admiration for your patience Justin! I don’t think I could stay as focused.
Good God. This Load has been a pain in your butt from the word go. I feel you brother. Bet it's a long time before you forget this load.
I not sure that was done by another truck. I wonder if someone hit with a hammer or something. God bless you for your integrity in how you dealt with it.
A beautiful show of trucks the backbone of the freight industry. A lot of varieties in style and paint schemes. I love the long hoods, never been a fan of coe trucks. Lots of beauty and big bucks. Jason, keep your truck, get the visor installed and keep it going.
they wiped the whole thing clean man.
cannot tell you how pissed off that makes ME!!!
happens to my company all the time at drop locations.
ignorant bastards.
sorry ya gotta deal with that man.
Justin sorry to hear about your trailer. Prayers for you and your family. Hope it turns out good for you. 👍👍👍❤️
Thank you for sharing this footage to us that are out here and couldn’t make it. Sorry to hear about your trailer. Prayers to you and your wife!!!!
It's like going to a place like this .....theirs more then a bunch of truckers that truck , there's high level craftsmen and women , business people ,and never ending stories and awhile lotta great hearted people
OMG!! Justin has the same expression on his face in every single picture pose... like he's trying to photo bomb it... too funny!!
It’ll be interesting to see if you’ll be able to get some money for the delay on getting your trailer on top of getting it fixed.
Hada blast meeting you guys! 😃
Was Awesome seeing you and TDubs used your Giftcard this morning 🙏🏽😎
@@JustTruckin Glad she liked it!
This is why having a video record of everything makes things so easier to sort afterward.
Crazy what happened to your trailer.But very cool and amazing trucks out . Thanks again for the footage 👍👍 Kiwi New Zealand 🇳🇿
Justin, I know you have a good heart and want to believe it was an accident. But, that looks like intentional vandalism, probably a hammer type object. Sad to suggest it, but you did take the last available parking stall when you dropped off. If you recall, you were backing way back to get to the spot while at the same time, the other truck pulled up intending on taking that spot. That driver parked so you couldn't back in and then disappeared for a while so you couldn't ask him to move his truck. Once you did find him, he did move. Who knows how long he had to wait to find a parking spot after you left. Maybe, and I hope not, but maybe he took out his frustration on your trailer.
Bj and the bear truck
Wow that’s crazy for someone too hit your trailer like that and don’t take responsibility for it, it’s Sunday afternoon hopefully they got it fixed for you , good Luck 🍀
Wow; sorry about your trailer man, but thanks for the video from the truck show. Beautiful trucks and awesome people!! Love your channel.
Well we got something in common, I'm from CT,and I married a South Carolina girl.😁😁😁.going for 55 in April. We're in Anderson.now.
That' sucks that they hit the trailer!! Glad they didn't do more damage though because they could have easily totaled it with a load in the trailer like that depending on the impact on the front of the box you can stress the steel etc.. Anyway looks like your having a good time! Glad you found some one to repair it! I hope you get this nightmare load sorted out and hopefully reimbursement from GE.
Who ever did that to your trailer Justin needs 2 pay out of there own pockets 4 the damage
You could back off the slack adjusters so your shoes a release from the drum or use brake chamber and screw it in the brake so it release the slack adjusters and have trailer move temporarily until you resolve the airlines connections
A great tour of the show Thanks👍👍👍👍👍👋👋
Wow Looks like they hit that pretty hard! Hope they get it fixed for ya...Love your videos..Stay safe...
Good follow Good no matter what people come through for Justin remember the gas situation Justin go gas, now this trailer situation keep being a good person justtruckin Good will follow always.
I drive ltl in Greensboro, NC and we go to GE in Mebane. Their lot is horribly tight and over crowded as well. So much so that a few years back one of our drivers was killed by another company's driver when backing.
Wow 😯 that is so sad Ts Ps 🙏🏽
I hate this happened! Looks from the end of this video, it did not spoil your trip, and no one was feeling any pain. I hope the company takes care of the damages. What have learned from watching your videos is that drop loads suck. Keep us posted.
2:00 Walk around nearby and across the yard and check the corners of the trailer doors for some of that yellow plastic smudged on.
Trucks, Trucks, beautiful Trucks. Bummer to hear about your trailer. Hope they get you fixed up and on the road again soon.
Sorry that happened to ya! That’s infuriating. I been there before though. Came home to where I park my truck once, and I had my Lexus GX460 parked where my truck is parked, and I get there to find my entire front end on my GX ripped off. Looked like an ICC bumper went through the front bumper and the headlight. No notes or anything. My insurance ended up having to pay it.
Wow Justin sorry about the trailer but thank God for video. I just don't know how you can take that so calmly, I am almost certain I would have a long stay there myself. The good thing about that is my food and lodging would be free. I Don't know if I could handle those steel bar's. God Bless the both of you and you done very well handling the situation. Please tell Sam and the others hello. I watch all of you religiously
Thank you Junior I will 😎🙏🏽
I noticed loads of the trucks are covering the frame rails, but I loved the one with hinges and storage..lol..I wanted a candy red truck, international, because of the grill, or western maybe.. but, using flakes in the paint with maroon pinstriping under the clearcoats..lol..
and a rainbow with a cowboy hat somewhere on it..lol..
Some beautiful rig’s there,it’s unfortunate what happened to your trailer.
Wish I lived closer, would've repaired it for nothing but parts. Stay safe
