8 bucks an hour? I aint checking crap! That is what truckers make. 8 freaking dollars an hour!

Good Pretrip, although, I would suggest losing the beater stick, and checking your tires right. Also, dont just look at the release arm, make sure the "claws" of the fifth wheel are completely closed.

Thank you very much Sir!

When he speaks about welds, isn't he talking about looking for welds that are separating away from their connection to the frame?

when he gets to the back trailer tires and metions the hubometer i think he means to say it is like an odometer not a speedometer..because it records mileage not speeds..but again..he does a good job.. i think he is just as nervous as one of us takin the damn pre-trip portion...you almost need an M.B.A in physics to drive one of these beasts..

Recommend you put some emphasis on chocking the wheels to prevent forward & backward movement --for safety. This for those parts of check where movement for brake test isn't required. Particularly important when you need to go under truck to check components. Wheels should always be chocked for safety when parked.

Good professional video! Thanks!! @Cloudywinds...What does it matter if his back is turned? He's giving us a good tool here to help us out!! Also had no problems hearing him!

[sideslide23]

I thought you inspect the air hose, and hook them up and make shure the air pressure is at normal pressure before backing the tractor under it and couple it. beside you have to check the 5th wheel plate to make shure its greesed to prevent stearing problems.

[jsnazzz123]

@Cloudywinds Maybe you should get a better audio card or speakers. He did an excellent job.

[Cloudywinds]

cannot stand a teacher that talks with his back to his students or the camera. I couldn't even hear most of the videos for you had your back to the camera

What are three reasons to inspect the battery on a Class 1 vehicle?
