Bwoy l can remember back in the days when dem guys use to drive EK Powell truck dem hauling cement to Montego Bay from Kingston. I use to take the trip with my son with my son's dad.Maaan that was when l learn the fun and excitement in trucking My son is a trucker here in the U.S and l use to spend weeks with him doing over the road runs
That's typical Jamaica driving for you, mon. Breakdowns in the middle of the road ( it's considered unmanly to pull off the road ), continual use of the horn, driving on either side of the road, passing on the curve, bigger vechicle takes the right of way, passing yet never being passed, dead dogs on road, ( my favorite rememberance was the beheaded mule at the side of the road, locals cutting steaks off of it ), chickens playing chicken with traffic. And that's the same scenario repeated mile after mile...
Rasta mash up the w900 him cah care truck I can remember wen Damion aka Nature Boy a drive that KW a the cleanest truck from outta Jamie fleet a trucks them from down a Lorna Clarke hardware
Eu pensava que era só no Brasil que tinha casas em cima dos morros mais aí nis estados Unidos também tem aqui no rio e o que mais tem aliás as pessoas nececitadas tem no mundo inteiro naus estes caminhoneiros aí que loucura
You can go too fast up hill 1000 times, you'll need only do it once going down hill to kill and or die. I hope most of these guys never end up in a truck in Australia.
Looks like your drivers are willing to destroy your equipment for the sake of extra weight which is greedy and will cost a lot more in the long term..Great for us watchers though 🎥👍🇬🇧
They destroy our roads as well and dump a lot of what they're carrying in the corners....a lot ofcarelessness....when the authorities setup spot checks with portable scales they all park and wait them out
While also being double, if not triple the price of a used truck in decent condition, without the ability to repair anything yourself, resulting in you having to get towed to a dealership and likely paying well over $230k+ considering the price of those battery packs, which probably won't last past 100,000 miles. Not to mention a pitiful range of 500 miles, which will probably be lowered drastically when its actually loaded if we're going off the statistics of electric pickups when towing anything remotely heavy.
Look up battery energy density compared to diesel fuel, that will tell you all you need to know, if electric trucks were that much better we would already use them
@@ocln2481 If you think for one second that they will not sacrifice some weight for a vehicle that is 65% cheaper to operate? You are sadly mistaken. There are already trailer manufacturers who are incorporating EV drive trains and batteries into them. On a 53' cube you can put almost 12kwh of solar. more than enough to extend the range past 500 miles. Even on a cloudy day.
Jamaica don’t have the proper roads and infrastructures for those heavy haulers. Caribbean nations in general don’t have that capacity, yet they are everywhere. What we need are European and Asian made slimmer trucks not those beast
loll here in Australia the new scanias and Volvo pulling b doubles struggle with old American trucks. the new freightliner and kenworth would outrun any scania any day . I own Frightliner 2009 model with Cat C15 Acert I can Gurntee you no Europian truck has even kept up with the tourque of American Truck. American power 💪
I think you will find that catapillar engines are perkins with a cat sticker on them. Id take a Scania any day pall. Built to pull not to look like a motor home..
Finga’s red kenworth pulled up that hill with ease, love his truck
Love that white peterbulit 379 and that white kenworth t680 they are such good trucks man

Dangerous spot that the truck break down at Jah jah am happy no one met in an accident.

🙏🏽🙏🏽
Great video, some nice trucks there
I'm waiting for the video when someone imports a scania 730 V8 from here in London to Jamaica and watch it mashup American lorry dem! Soon come....
3:43 dis guy knows how to get down the hill with EB!
It's also quite heavy
Poor classic stuck...and the tanker w9 look empty..
Да ,скорее всего виноват малый уровень топлива. В систему попал воздух.
Why are they driving right hand drive trucks on the left side of the road?
@@josephiansalvador9738 probably working with what they have
It is empty 😂😂
Love the trucks but damn one minute the truck is there next man the truck is gone next minute the truck is back who's shooting this video
Looks like I see both right and left hand steering. If so, that is crazy.
👍🏽🤣
What's so crazy about that?I live in a country where it is the same.
Yes, American vehicles and Japanese
It is needed. Half the time you drive on the left side of road, then switch. "No worries, mon."
Loaded/overloaded vs empty. Seems like a decent comparison
Up and running mi general
Xw invaden el otro sentido de la via los q van subiendo?? A un lado del truck descompuesto pueden pasar
are some of the lads running heavy?
Why isn't the person for that car move it to a safer place and make way for the traffic
He did eventually
So your trucks are left hand drive and the cars are right hand drive?
THIS TRUCKS ARE SO POWERFUL SINCE HAULING VARIOUS KINDS LOOKS PEANUTS COMPARED WITH WAY CLIMBING LONG HILL.
FREIGHTLINER CLASSIC BROKE DOWN INNA DI VIDEO

One Love Mon!
Nice video👍
Did want to c the red classic a move
You would have thought they would have towed the truck to some where safe
Wat happen to the Freightliner in the road
Fuel Issues
3:23 DANGER!!!!!!!
Man that's a drive line hill if I ever saw one
Veo q son mucho mas imprudentes q aqui en Colombia
How are things done in Colombia?

Defensive is for tourists, yah. Drive Offensive. And faster !...
truckers have a hard life
Why was he driving in the passing lane?
Normal way to drive on the Island.
Left hand, right hand. Road goes both way. Just use horn and flash lights. No worries, mon...
Nice 🙏🔥🔥🔥

Keep on trucking 💯💯💯
Anyone know what problem with the freightliner was? Dangerous spot to be broke down😅
Fuel pump was giving trouble
But it crashed two weeks ago 😔
@@jamaicantrucking That's bad luck, i hope driver is ok and he able to be trucking again soon🚚
@@S7EVE_P yes he is ok 👍
looks like the dude in the classic missed a gear.
E eu achando que o povo que roda na BR 251 eu e os demas eram doido kkkkk doido é esse povo aí
Kkkkkkkkkkkk
Lol a wa do that deh truck deh
Fuel Problem
Up 💯🤟
Truck drivers think that they are driving a sports car
You can go too fast up hill 1000 times, you'll need only do it once going down hill to kill and or die.

Overload is a pain in the arse.
pure mad drivers

The government should have weight stations and have regular checks.
These guys get paid poorly as it is. Your ignorance is bliss, don't apply our American ways to these poverty stricken people, you dunce
In Mexico they do that to trucks. They literally shorten the life expectancy of the engine power train
They destroy our roads as well and dump a lot of what they're carrying in the corners....a lot ofcarelessness....when the authorities setup spot checks with portable scales they all park and wait them out
Did he twist a driveshaft
OP said fuel pump
Meanwhile we are looking at Tesla's Semi truck being able to pull a 5% grade with 80,000 lbs, without slowing down at all.
While also being double, if not triple the price of a used truck in decent condition, without the ability to repair anything yourself, resulting in you having to get towed to a dealership and likely paying well over $230k+ considering the price of those battery packs, which probably won't last past 100,000 miles.

@@Cozzy-Wozzy less than 20 moving parts in an EV to fail. Not 4000 parts.

That truck stalled because he took a run at itthe one that was overtaking on the inside was in crawler gear all the way up
No, the OP stated bad fuel pump
A few of those tracker trailer drivers don't seem to have any hill climbing skills
Doideira demais 👍 kkkkkkk
Bad boy truck
How’s money for owner operators in Jamaica?? Is it harder for black Americans to move there and trucking as owner ops or hiring a driver?
Money probably will be too small compared to what you making.
Who would want to move to that sh*t hole 🤣
@@R32LMedition Where you from?
It won't be very high, it's a small island
