I could listen to this guy tell stories all day. I love talking to older self taught kind of guys , you can learn more from them in a week than a year at college
Never thought I'd see him again....It was only my car but when he saw me...disabled with two canes...he didn't hesitate to assist me...he fixed my problem without charge...I was on my way to the New Liskeard Hospital...that was back in 2008...I lived in Latchford at the time and now in Mississauga...Will never forget him.....nor his unique truck...
This guy operates out of a small town about 2.5 hours from where I am. I had him come and change a leaf spring for me while I was working, he was in and out in under an hour, had absolutely everything with him. I was blown away by that truck. True old school dude, excellent set up.
This gentleman was probably one of the most honest, humble, and genuine "interviewee's" I have ever listened to here on UA-cam. His video segment was a pleasure to watch.
this man is on his game! people like that ready for anything on the side of the road makes me happy to be a driver with that kind of support!! keep it up bro!!
He helped me one time back in spring 2014 in new liskeark. I stopped in husky truck stop and called him to fix the major air leak on my trailer. I never see him again but I remember him as a friendly professional gentlemen, happy to see he is still working and help truckers and people. God blessed him.🙏
I love this guy, Crazy Dave is not only a great friend but a really straight like an arrow guy. I missed him being my number one customer. Your Crazy Cuban friend “May the force be with you Always”
Crazy Dave... He fixed up the Penske truck I was driving about a year ago when it blew a coolant line right there on the fuel island at the Petro Pass there in New Liskeard. Cool stuff! Thanks.
Just last week Dave rescued my son who drives for Titanium. Dave will remember Mike because Mike is probably the biggest guy he's met in a while. He replaced Mike's alternator so he could get some heat back in his cab. Mike had no heat in a Northern Ontario winter, not fun. Dave also found another problem that the dealer caused on a recent service and fixed that too. Thanks for helping my son Dave. He may be a big one but he is still my "little boy" LOL.
Great interview, and nice to see that you are making videos of not just truckers, but the support people around the industry. It shows people that there is more than just the driver that is responsible to get the load to the final destination.
+David KAMAZ Thanks, and your welcome David! My son was really surprised when he Googled me one day and saw the video that you did at GBATS. I hadn't seen it at that point lol
"Thanks Dave"..This is the best video I've seen of a full service truck on the road..Your work shop in your truck looks like my workshop..everything in milk crates!..& boxes..& like you..I know where everything is..& it's no hassle to locate things..You keep on doing what ya doing Dave.. Fantastic video mate..Cheer's..Doc J..
Dave you seem like a great guy and an awesome mechanic. I am a chemical engineer by education but I love working on trucks and tractors and realy enjoy listening to you talk about your truck and business.
Ahhhh yes!!! I finally understand what a man crush is. I like to think that I am skilled, but you put me right back into kindergarten . I wish to be half as good some day. Keep on keeping the truckers truckin bro.
Very thankful to have the mobile mechanics and the mobile tire service guys. They Definitely keep us moving down the road, they show up in rain or sun, weekends and late at night. 🇺🇸
Daves the real deal. A mans man living his dream doing one of the hardest jobs on the planet ,Heavy Duty road side truck mechanic. To all the people nit picking in their comments ,it just shows your jealousy. To all those who want to follow in his foot steps you couldn't have a better role model. God Bless you Dave and be safe out there !
man loved the video, I'm actually looking to get a service truck and this helped out a ton!!!! I have a small channel about login and I'm always improvising the best I can... And yes we pushing trucks all the time, I home made a pusher for my truck... the next one will have an even better pusher on it.. out in the field its nice just to push them to a wide spot
I've lost count the number of times I've watched this guy . His attitude and technical acumen impresses the hell out of me .I'd love to see an update on this truck and Dave himself . Respect from the UK .Daz
This has got to be one of the nicest // well built on site service rigs I have ever seen!! What a beautifully awesome functional setup! Very impressive and a true professional to boot.
this is my kinda dream, I feel the same kinda mechanic and that truck is a dream truck to me. great video and a kick in the ass to get my own business going
For the record, all Western Star trucks are built at the Portland, Oregon plant or at our plant in Cleveland, N.C. formally known as Freightliner Trucks. Know known as Daimler Trucks of North America. Western Star line was bought by Freightliner in 2002 when we were owned by Daimler Chrysler. I retired from the company in 2013 with 25 years in.
My mentor had a Volvo N12 as a house moving truck in Australia. It spent its life hauling houses all over the countryside. Spent days straight maneuvering houses in the deep mud. It was tough. It lasted as well as anyone's mack or ws.
Not so crazy, just a very capable and confident man. You have all my respect. I'm in a different field but, I enjoy the freedom and ability to make my own decisions...
Chris give yourself a pat on the back.Your doing a great service to all the industry and such a great sense of pride to all that you interview.I'd say you've got a pretty cool gig.Keep up the good work and enjoy meeting such cool people.Continue to be humble, your a cool cat!!And keep the videos rollin.
Thanks Sergio. Meeting Dave was completely random, I turned around and followed him a couple miles until he stopped and ask him for an interview. I'm glad that everyone else sees the uniqueness of what he does.
It's nice to see a Someone who apparently has the ability to improvise and improve. We are a dinosaur breed. Best to you be safe. Thanks for the share. Excellent job on your truck.

Right on, thanks for sharing that info.
So you worked there when it was moved from Kelowna, B.C. to Portland?
MrFakit that would have been Torner west. Torner east was in Hamilton or Burlington Ontario. I know uncle Henry.
Used to live next door to a Western Star Dealer. They made son heavy-duty trucks. Charlie Jenkins, the owner, was a hella nice guy.
Excellent video Chris! I live in Ontario and have seen that truck when I took a trip out that way. It`s one hell of a service truck!
