[MrWiggles2002]

How do you get financed with bad credit for truck driving school. i start at Roadmaster Drivers school tomorrow 1/28/12 and i want to become a truck driver

[NYRIKAN]

[ouragan2222]

[MrDaylow]

drove otr for16 yrs...have local job now. i do not miss the otr bullshit not one bit !!! nobody wants to pay a driver a honest wage anymore........

[haynes1776]

@MrDaylow I missed the open road for about 3 years. I want to go back, but with a good company and good miles and pay. I do agree with you that companies should pay drivers more for their work.

[haynes1776]

Vince, great video. I watch it all the time. Cant wait till your next video comes out.

[PoFscience]

I start school Monday and will start work in Jan. Can't wait. Great vid!



[BrandonKY81]

[8747800]

@pilebaina i think his Qualquam (his Portable Computer) has all that info.

[Horselover0065]

hello nice vidio

[8747800]

quick question: do u leave the truck on while u sleep for A/C(if its 95 degrees outside)?

[5153john]

@8747800 well man there a espar or wabasco heat or cold machine

[mello27]

where you with stevens trucking by any chance

[Seasue]

Truck drivers are not easy

[truckertoby24]

Interesting camera location in the trailer, turning off the lights in the cab to end a 'scene', and I liked that camera-roll outside the window on the water bridge. You do a good job of editing. My only question is where do you find the audio bytes? They sound like they actually belong in a reality tv show, or an 'entrance riff' for a host of a tv show. In fact, when I found your videos on ytube I wondered if it was a purposed leak for a new reality series or maybe some tv show I'd never seen.

[Sauron767]

What company have you worked for before? were they good?

[VICKY2251000]

I wanna be a trucker when i grow up and watchin ur videos let me know what its like

[KTDFox]

@123nypd

If you are going to use slurs to try to insult people, at least learn how to spell them properly. FYI I would never hire someone as an accountant who talks to people the way you do, little high school bitch.

[TCKxJERKx]

@123nypd Your so Fuckin' stupid.. Dumb ass little kids Like you crack me Up... I hope you know That The computer you're typing this bullshit on came from a truck too...

[coastIIcoasttv]

About to become a Truck driver so thanks for the posts dude

[RomelloJohnson2011]

what truck company do you drive for....& what is a good company to start with

[truckerboss79]

i think it is great he shows a perspective of the trucking industry and i think there should be more videos from other drivers that run other then just refrigerated. i have been driving for 10 years and to me i think this is a well made video and since i run a different type of frieght i just may do the same. great job driver

[123nypd]

all of you are a bunch of retards get a real job; anyway if the pay was bad you guys would have never even wanted this job so fuck you truck wannabee's

[oerllikon2]

@123nypd Without trucks, america stops. So shut the hell up

[123nypd]

@oerllikon2 Fuck you Mother Fucker lol little kid talking shit on the internet and getting support by his low life friends!

[AnotherSchmoe]

@123nypd

Seems like you're the retarded one. Few jobs are as integral and irreplaceable to society as truck driving (everything comes to a halt without it). What's got you so mad?

[123nypd]

@AnotherSchmoe May 21 2011 I dont want to die!

[AnotherSchmoe]

@123nypd

You'll be fine. I'm only 21 and I've already lived through probably 10-15 "guaranteed apocalypse dates". ;)

[123nypd]

@AnotherSchmoe what ev God Bless 

[TCKxJERKx]

@123nypd1st.you need to pull What Ever Crawled Up your ass out or just get the hell of this Video 2nd.Why the Hell are you watching this video If you hate truckers so much 3rd.trucking is most definitely a real Job It's one of the most in demand economic Fields In america...So Next time you Touch anything in you In your house just remember that it was all brought to you by a truck!!! Haha

[383chevystroker]

how much home/off time do you get between runs?

[left4stupidbyfaith]

What's that trance song at 2:16 titled?

[jinma2]

Ive been thinking really hard about going into trucking, i have a good job for a good company, good security, been there 6 years but not a lot to show for it specialy after 6 years and only making 13 an hour, im not married and have no kids im 26, i dont mind travel and love trucks, i guess one big fear is down the road i dont wanna get burnt out, but one thing about the industry is alot of people have trouble finding a good company, lots of turnover and that bothers me.

[MRYellow38]

cool when i grow up i am gonna be a ttruck driver!

[1869Joner]

you could probably sell this video to the Discovery Channel.

[longtimehauler]

[Blizzard5186]

[crowsong111]

[MegaVictoria45]

I love your presentation of your video. I am a trucker's wife and we are members of ACT, Association of Christian Truckers. I have the upmost respect for truckers. Without truckers, we as consumers will not receive our essentials and daily products. A big thank you to all hard diligent trucker drivers across America.

[carmaster72]

What company do you work for?

[Jtube41978]

Love the music!

[thewun1]

is it typical to get 11 hrs sleep like you did at Raphine? Thats sweet

[TexasRaTleSnake316]

@thewun1 federal guidelines only allow a driver 11 hours of driving time in a 24 hour period those 11 also count towards your total of 14 hours on duty time so you legally have to have 10 hours a day at bare minimum where your doing your own thing

[redneckmechanic94]

Excuse me? Where is you television show? Its a great documentary, and should be made into a movie.

[7zoltan]

[dbounce1000]

Hay Vince, just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to make these videos. In a few weeks i will start cdl training at my local driving school here in Fl. It will be a long time dream come true, So i started looking for videos to get as much info as i could and came across all of yours and i'm super excited about my future career. Again thanks for the videos, and showing me a little of what its like to have a Truckers life. maybe i'll see ya around some day. stay safe

[dbounce1000]

i like those black sun glasses wanting to know what kind they are and where you got them thanks keep the vids comming.

[journey95]

@dbounce1000 forgot where i purchased them.

[ps3phreak]

is your automatic faster than a nomal transmission? at 2.13 you can hear that it's very fast...

and do you have a autoshift or ultrashift?

[scaniar620cy]

hi vince i am a truck driver from GREECE.your video is wonderful. I want to gain experience in other countries like America, the dream of every driver is to come even for a while to work in america. please tell me what to do for a stranger to pull driver's license there.

[heveruop]

That is actually not true. You have to make the time. There are many places that allow you to park a truck and then go out and visit the local areas. Example, I bobtailed to Niagra Falls and took in the sights. Example two. Parked the rig in Nashville at the Travel Centers of America and walked to downtown where I got on a trolley and took a tour of the city. Example 3- Parked the rig at a local Truck stop in Oakland within walking distance of Oakland Coliseum. Took a baseball game and so forth.

[VendettasD]

I'm considering on getting into truck driving post Army. Any recommendations or advice?

[5574000]

Hi Vince

Great videos.

I take it you are an owner operator ?

What model is your Kenworth ?

Cheers

Drew

[woodtoyz]

What a great series. Very well done!

[journey95]

thanks glad you are enjoying the series

[magicbum55]

Thanks for the video! It really motivated me to follow my dream of being a truck driver!

[ingram2118]

you wanna be a driver? cool your not alone am 15 yrs old and also wanna be a trucker

[journey95]

thanks for the comment

[haynes1776]

from haynes1776: Im a trucker myself. I had not been driving for a year, but im looking forward to go back this year once the doctor clears me to return. I agree with you that its stinks you cant stop long enought to enjoy the scenery of all the great places you been to, but I made the best out of it. On the way to a stop in Wisconsin, I stoped in Wisconsin Dells,Wi to play some Minature golf at Pirate's Cove. it was fun. had a great time. 4 holes in one! Ha! I mk the best of it on the road.

[guy42294]

I was born in New Port News, Virginia.

[journey95]

Thanks

[mrlordreed]

Love the videos dude. Very informative!

[journey95]

Thanks glad you like them

[mrlordreed]

Was curious as to what type of gps you use(and if you like it). Im about to start working for a company and was just curious.

[journey95]

HI, I use a garmin nuvi 205 GPS. But always look at my trucker;s Atlas.

[mrlordreed]

Ok thanks. Yeah you can never do without the atlas no matter what technology you have. Keep up the good work and post another vid soon too.

[CaliDMarie]

Great footage! I am starting Truck School soon and I have enjoyed watching your series!

[journey95]

Thanks

[merritt1992]

Great stuff man. Do you have GPS to tell you where to go for every load?

[Chazzkit]

Don't be a trucker please god. I'm trying to get out, been with it for a year and I feel so disconnected from life. Your quality of life will suffer.

[gtusmc05]

@Chazzkit I went over the road in 2005 but became a single parent . Now that both kids are going to be out of high school Im heading back in June I can't wait .... I loved it .

[VeteransAgainstKonop]

Nice video... Gonna watch some more.
