I love how positiv you are😁 not many truckers of youre kind anymore. Drive safe Brother, god bless
No doubt he must be a church goin kind of man for his ending to be god oriented may god bless all the truck drivers all over the country with his loving hand and shield them from any type of harm that a truck driver encounters on his way to the end of his haul
That's bc he comes home everyday. OTR drivers have to suffer day to day.
You stop driving for coca-Cola, & went containers, I use to do that as well now I’m
Doing dedicated paper/van!!! Great video driver.......keep trucking
Not all truckers love their job like you. I’m a yard switcher at FedEx Ground in Indiana and not many drivers that come through seem like they enjoy their job as much as you. So seeing this makes me happy, safe travels!
2 years of middle of the night rail yards in Chicago and I had enough. Glad to be alive.
Used to go into most of the Chicago rails. Willow Springs was about the best, BN Cicero and House 9 were ok once you learned your way around, UP under I-55 could get tight... Going back behind Comisky Park could get dangerous at times. Been to CSX and NS and some of the others. Always freight in Chicago.
Im.also from Chicago hauled containers to LPC and Global 4 in joliet/Elwood didn't mind it ut I haul containers in and out of San Antonio Texas and Houston
Bro, you’re a damn good teacher! I’m about to start running containers, and I’ve learned so much from you!🤜🏾🤛🏾
Yes I am loving the positivity. So many guys are negative and I know the truck driving business is rough. I will be attending CDL school soon. I am so glad I came across your video. It really gave me a more positive outlook on being a truck driver. Keep up the good work.
lmao dont do it man!!!
@@bking9571 why not? 👀
Two years on now Chuck. How'd that schooling go and what are you up to now???
The places where you mount your cameras are just Fab.
Keep on trucking brother.
You look like a very down to earth guy with a very positive outlook on life. Gotta love that. Keep up the hard work! The company should give you a raise for boosting the morale and good moods of all your fellow employees!
Drove a yard dog for a while spent a lot of time backing in to docks. God bless you.
Thank you for showing your typical day as an intermodal truck driver. This video means a lot to me.
I enjoyed this video very much! I am a new importer from India and had my first ever 20 ft. container load arrive today from the Savannah GA port. I had a good conversation with the truck driver. All he does is haul containers to and from the port.
I used to drive to the Long Beach and Oakland shipping ports and let me say it is wild and crazy it takes long to get in and it takes long to get out. I've seen trucks crash in there, I've seen fights, seen container handlers drop containers. Anything you can think of shit even truckers unhooking their loaded chassis without putting the legs down on purpose no one cares in there. Good luck when they go on lunch an extra hr of wasted time for you, also had a couple protests so people would block off entrances making it harder for us. Never going back to doing that shit here in cali
Nice Video! I am a truck driver that has only hauled dry van 53ft trailers. I was curious about intermodal trucking and your video popped up. It doesn't seem has hard as I thought it would be. This might be my next career move in truck driving. I really appreciate the video.
I saw this video and was like he looks familiar then when you said you was the coke guy I was like yeahhhh I knew it lol
I miss that area. That footage of the 2 lane part of us231 north of Huntsville took me back
Great video! And kudos to your wife getting up and having that great food ready.
I drive intermodal and I love it home everyday easy work...KEEP UP THE GD WORK BRO
Trailer legs, Air/Power lines, Kingpin, Dump airbags, pull forward, fill airbags, good to go. Great video man keep it up. Running oilfields and our pin system is the same.
Your video really made my day! Thank you for sharing your day with all of us. Wish you best of luck!
Wow brother God has blessed you so wonderfully.
Praise the Lord
Awesome video guy, in Albany NY we got a fleet of guys just like you doing the same thing as you. Kickin tires n lighting fires. Drive safe and keep on truckin!
By far the most positive video I seen on UA-cam this year!! God Bless!!
LTL driver
A great attitude is definitely the highlight of this video and it comes across well in the way you deliver the information. Thanks for a Great Video Sir!
Well done on an excellent video! Your attention to detail is really good. The positioning of your camera(s) is brilliant!! Thank you for giving us an excellent insight of Inter Modal transport.

Great video on intermodal freight! I’ve been doing some “career” research and really appreciate the positive outlook on this side of the industry.
Cracking vid! Love seeing this type of vlog, Drive safe!
Enjoyed your video mate. I’ve got container pins on my trailers but I’ve only put containers on 3 times in 10 years lol.
These camera angles are a trip! This is a great vid! Thanks for the upload!
One of THE best trucking videos I have ever seen.
God bless you man, love the positive videos
Very interesting and well done video. I appreciate you making it so we can see how all this stuff works!
This was an excellent video! Lots of stuff I learned about container operation!
it's so good to see someone so positive about truck driving....I did it for 26 years and miss it.
Great video bro .... I really like your positive outlook …. I'm a new containers driver and means a lot to watch it.
Great video man. I start monday . 5 yrs trucking experience. New to intermodel
Nervous a bit. Great stuff
Its nice to watch a video of a truck driver who does not cuss! God Bless you and your family stay well! These are crazy times!
Love your positive attitude! Best wishes from Madison, AL. I live close to the intermodal terminal. I’ve always been curious about how things work there! Great video! Stay safe on the road bro!
Great video PJ , keep trucking and stay safe !!!

Such great vibe and informative content PJ. So glad I found you 🙏
Been driving 20 plus years and never gets old
You need to post more videos. I love em. Your so positive and you are good at what you do. Keep going👌👌
Blessings to you brother!!
Thank you PJ for making this video and all other videos you have made about Truck Driving. When I get back from deployment with the National Guard, I am looking to make a career change and use my CDL and educational knowledge and skills to work for a truck company. I went to truck driving school five years ago and just graduated and earned a Carrier-Studies Certificate in Driver's Education Instructor from Northern Virginia Community College last year.
Really enjoyed watching your video. Very informative! I just received My CDL A this Year in November & trying to get in somewhere. Plus that Mini cooker looks awesome. I will look into that little Gem. Thanks for the Info & God Bless 👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you for passing important information to new drivers.
Never gave much thought to container drivers. Now that has changed. Truly a blessed guy!
Love the video, I live over in Florence, I drive a yard dog for a lumber company. Love this man.
Nice video! Great to see behind the scenes!
Very nice video. Thanks for sharing! I 'm doing loads straight up in 20ft
I'd be driving on and off for forty years and ten years of it with a steel company, and I have never seen anyone so positive about work like this guy. Do you ever have a bad day ? You look like your having fun my friend, It's nice to see and we all need a little of what your on. maybe it's in the air by you, because i am from tri state area by interstate 95 and traffic is really bad here, can't get nothing done. I did enjoy video on shipping containers, good info on part of trucking I didn't know about. Job well done !
Great video I currently work for xpo logistics, thanks for some of the good tips you provided, be safe out there and god bless you and your family 🙏🙏🙏
This is a great little film! I learned a lot. I like the Anchor Films end-credit
Great video my brother ! Is good to see people that loves God and let him transform and guide their lives, God bless you and your wife and continue using you greatly
there is one word in my mind for explaining a guy like u....... nice
Shinny side UP! And bless you and yours brother!
Amazing video and footage along with angles 👌👏 thank you!
Awesome video gives people like me a visual on what you all do
Keep trucking brother.God bless you.
Awesome video. I am in my 3rd week of intermodal training with Schneider, so I go out with a training engineer tomorrow. This video is really helpful in letting me know what to expect. Thank you. I have subscribed 🙂
Wow ,,,,somehow I can relate to almost every part of this video,,,,
Love them containers man,,,
Love the little hot plate,,,,
I go through the same thing of having to eat on the highway with the junk food ,,,
Love the part about Hauling the Bibles spreading the good word,,,,
Thanks for posting this video,,
Nice to see someone loves what they do as a job sure wish I had that,,,,
You're very fortunate,,,
You have a great blessing from above...
I used to pull containers a few months back did it for almost a year. I'll never forget the day I went into the UP railyard in Marion , AR to drop off a chassis and when I came out a Universal truck rolled over at the gate blocking entrance and exit. Had to sit there for almost 2 hours till wreckers could roll it back over and let us out. Must of been going way to damn fast turning in there to roll it that bad. Be safe.
Thank you for all the great information and your love for the lord and family. God bless you and your family and friends. I wish my family and I lived in your area we need more friends like you. Good luck and God keep you healthy and safe out there on the road.

Hello fellow container driver, i drive containers here in sweden, stockholm, keep on truckin' :)
Hello from the Oakland Port o7
snygg scania
@@leojansson231 tack, den är trevlig :)
hello, container driver from saint louis, mo
Hi. Thanks for the video on intermodal trucking. I'm thinking of applying for an intermodal job and this info helps. It looks fairly easy. I only have 16 months of experience driving a big rig so I'm still a little unsure.
The gopro mounted on the trailer was really cool
thank you bro, one of the best video about container out there
We have a universal Intermodal up here In Illinois I do Intermodal as well great job and career thanks for the 🎥 video keep trucking brother God Bless
Brother I love your videos you do a great job of teaching God bless you
Awesome Video, thanks for Sharing the content..!! I could watch the video again just for the tunes… !!
Universal does a lot of hauling for us (usually flat bed) We're in Beaumont, TX and I believe their local terminal is out of Houston.
40 ft containers are on treble axle trailers here in Ireland.on super singles. Used to be tall doubles. Then small doubles
It's a range selector. The splitter would be the additional thumb switch that's used to split gears in the same stick position like in a 13 or 18 speed.
Enjoyed the video JP I live in cullman I'm sure u pass thru all the time but keep the videos coming have a good day
Nice video, a lot said and well explained, blessings to you and your wife...watching from Jamaica.
That hotlogic thing is so cool, like the highlight of the video for me I've been looking for something like that.
Just placed my order on Amazon lol, great video man.
I'd buy a Hotlogic if only a chunky wife came with it...
Big boobs...big butt...great attitude...
Leon Allan Davis hell Yh
Have one, they’re a great investment for sure
Gods blessing to you, good video.
love your videos and attitude!
I thought that was you and I like all of your video and I am learning a lot from you please continue to make them
Excellent video. Great production!
Nice video! Thanks for some education on intermodal for us model railroaders!
Thank you 🙏 keep smiling
I really enjoyed your video and your positive outlook on what you do. It's a blessing to see your church work and the bibles being sent overseas. I will be picking up two crates with my Chevy van and 14' aluminum utility trailer at the Joliet IL intermodal terminal. What kind of machines do the terminals use to load crates onto a small trailers like mine? I'm hoping they'll have some kind of a crane or something like that so they can lower it from above because the trailer has 1 foot railings on the sides. The other alternative would be some kind of a sling to lift with a fork truck from above the crate.
What a positive guy!
Great video. I really enjoyed it and all your tips.
I'm Soo glad my school shared this with us all to view. It has been VERY helpful & informative for me at the same time
@@bigrigpro763 Yessir!! It was in our homework folder yesterday to view.. U.S. Truck Driver Training School in Sterling Heights, Michigan
@@bigrigpro763 They did not say. I'm about to enter my last week of a school and received a folder called program completion and this video was in it. I just checked and there was another video in it as well about a day in the life of a coca-cola driver. I clicked on it and it's the video you were talking about in this one that you made!
This is a well-edited and well-shot video. Informative, thanks for sharing.
Excellent video, God bless you too
Enjoyed your video. Drive safely my friend. God bless you. 🙏
