    I sat with my jaw open in amazement as I watched this. In the opening caption there is a full explanation of what and why this driver is wide open from start to finish. I've only heard of the "Truckin' For Kids Truck Show" so hell ya this is an awesome event and many thanks to the drivers for taking time to support a much needed event in raising support and funds. Their next show is in Southern CA is October 6 & 7, 2012.

      Yes, I've seen videos of those BC transfers. They are really cool. I was in Las Vegas a couple of weeks ago and they're legal to run double tandems there. The same setup as here, but with an additional transfer trailer behind the first one. Not sure what they're grossing. I was bummed I couldn't get any videos of them doing their thing with transferring those boxes. I went through both Nevada and Utah and they run a ton of different combos in those states that I never get to see in Arizona or California -- triples, super-B's, what looked like double 48-footers, 53's+a 28' pup, 5-axle tankers that must've been 12K gallons, plus more configurations. So much variety...cool variety!

      Welcome to present time; over here (Sweden) we dump the two bunks FASTER than this guy do and it's on a regular job. Not in a competition!
      1: Trailer is disconnected from the cab -no running around back and forth ; draw bar, electric cables and air hoses are disconnected with a press of a switch.
      2: Once the truck is unloaded you go back and transfer the trailer bunk - all controlled from the cab, so no running up & down the cab here either.
      3: When trailer bunk is unloaded, you transfer it to the trailer and lock it from cab.
      4: Drive forward to make space for the draw bar, and again; press a switch and it will raise up to hook up level.
      5: First time you need to leave cab; well... you got to connect air hoses and electric cables manually, but that's all.
      Sadly though.. no one has uploaded a good DETAILED video showing the unloading sequence of the truck setup.
      But you can watch this:

    They are made this way to meet a weight law called the bridge law. By stretching out the length of the truck you are allowed to haul more weight. An alternative to this is 6 axle dump trucks which have the complexity of three steerable pusher axles in front of the tandems.

You can leave the trailer behind and only have to worry about the truck. Because there's some places that a trailer just won't fit.

    they call it the bridge law. You are required to have a minimum distance between the front axle and rear axle on the trailer to haul a certain amount of weight. If you notice some trailers have a set tandem and others have whats called a spread axle setup (10' between center of axles on the trailer). With a set tandem your only allowed to put 34,000lbs on it but on a spread your allowed to put 40,000lbs. Its all about distance between axles.

    @Thebestnumber24 I don't know what that is called, but it is a switch that causes the starter motor to spin the engine while the truck is in reverse gear. Pretty brillant system for backing up the truck from the ground!

  • @espeescotty

    Well, that is exactly what is happening. When he shuts the truck off and gets out to hook up the towbar, he leaves the transmission in reverse and with a switch or a button it activates the starter motor and it turns the engine without starting the truck. Since it is still in reverse the truck backs up.

      There was a Day that you got out of the truck, put it in Reverse, ran back and grabed the Drawbar and stuffed it in the hitch as you killed the Motor. We all did it but was dangerous.

    Trucks like these are set up so that when the driver shuts the truck off and leaves the tranny in reverse, they can press a button or flip a switch at the back of the truck that runs the starter motor without the engine firing. That way they can line up the towbar with the hitch easier. I'm not a trucker, so I don't know what this is called, but that is how it works.

    That is mental! I've never come across anything like it and have lived and worked with/around trucks in both Australia and Europe. Regarding hitching back up to the drawbar, all the setups I've known from memory have involved keeping the drawbar set at the height of the ringfeeder (i.e. tow hitch) by legs or whatever when uncoupled. It is up to the driver then to reverse right up to the drawbar so that it's touching the ringfeeder on the truck and he only has to nudge it a few mil to lock it in
