I Worked For Challenger Running From Cambridge The Company Was Good To Start With But The Want You Working 24/7 , I Ended Having 2 Major Accidents So Theu Sacked Me Amd My Dream Of Trucking I Canada And The US of A Was Over ,So Had To Return To The UK
That company was the worst 9 months of my life. They talk a great game and the new terminal in Cambridge is really nice. But they don't treat there drivers with any respect. As sean said they never compansate you for your downtime, unless you make a big deal about it. A few months ago 50 drivers walked into cambridge terminal and quit with in the same day, there response "when your a company are size 50 isn't that many" quoted from my driver manager. Glad to be out of that place
hay sean are volvos good trucks???? the one i was in with my grandpa was well shit i wanted a beter truck to look at like in beter condition than the one i was in when i look at a truck i want it to be in best condition to i can understand it more get a feel for it u know?
@TheLargecars Over all, they are pretty good. I'm into the bricks, like the pete 37/89, W900 ect. I had one right after this freghtliner, POS. But it all depends on how they're taking care of
You edited the video so that the guitar solo begins with your wheels spinnin' on the hiway... It rules! You do all this work filming and editing just to share your life and work with us. Thanks!
hey sean you still driving for challenger? my buddy drives for them and i am thinking of driving for them as well in the next few months! what did you think of driving for them my buddy has been with them for 6 years now and says he likes it do you have a opinions on them ? love the videos keep on trucking buddy maybe see you on the road some day! till them keep safe and have fun! James
@justice9829 I only did two trips with them. BOTH trucks brokedown, stranding me. They didn't compensate me for that. This Frieghtliner had transmission problems sending me down a 10% grade in top gear (automatic transmission over ride manual) and with no jake. the shop it was towed to showed the transmission had been "fixed" at least three times before.
I was also lied to in the hiring process. I was told I'd be long haul, what I wanted. I was put onto a BC/AB run. NOT what I wanted, and they weren't going to fix it. From what I understand, you either like em or hate em.
i see you worked for a few companies so what did you think of chalenger. I heard bison was no one to work for thanks for the nice videoes keep the good work up
They didnt accidentally put you on bc/alberta they just lie and put you on whatever they want regardless of what you tell them you want to work....typical bullshit from another shit company.I bet that previous driver of that volvo truck discharged that fire extinguisher on purpose to fuck up there truck because he was quitting anyway.Why didn't they put in a fridge? because there cheap bastards thats why.
I've seen some of those Challenger trucks here in California.Are they Canadian based or from the Eastern U.S....I don't remember seeing any trerminals here in the u.s. for them.
Oh I see.They must be a fair size outfit.I understand when Canadian drivers come down here they can only pick up loads heading back to Canada and can't pick and drop in the U.S. once their here.
I live in Spain at mo tho am English, want to move to Canada. Found out challenger are looking 4 drivers.What was wrong with them Sean? Who you working for now?
Drove for Covenant. Almost starved to death. Still, liked the volvo they gave me. Then went to SRT. I enjoyed it there. Good people. But they are getting big too. I think it is better to go with a middle sized outfit. But then, everyone has his own haul.
enjoyed this video Sean because it looks like Challenger is who I will be driving for when I get to Canada. Do they have a depot in BC where you can work out of. I will be living near Kamloops
I would say stay away from challenger. watch my "last" video. kamloops in about 3 hrs away from vancouver, where most companies are. there are some good local companies up there, jsut dont ask the names... cuz I have no idea other than clark or Arrow
what a amazing video this almost got me crying WOW for some reason this makes me really proud to be a trucker..The editing on this was also top notch ..this gets 5 stars and a favorite from me ..
This video is definitely a grade A video. You put the video together very nicely. You choose the right song (whats the song title?). This is really getting me excited about hitting the road again. I do a dedicated local route, but i'm tired of the re-runs same place,people, etc. I just got a appl. going to fax and hopefuly hit the road end of Nov. Good Luck, God Bless. C U on the road.
thank you very much. I realy like this video too for some reason. The song is Ozzy Ozborne, Mama, I'm comming home. here's praying you get what you want, and whats best!
Hey, Sean i just wanted to tell you im glad ur back on the road again to make some money!As far as Fraightliner Columbia it sux, hope u get that Volvo.
Wicked video. well done! The editing was very good with the audio from you driving truck to the different video scenes. Nice truck by the way. Can't wait for more vids. Keep up the good work!
Nice, I'm glad you got your Volvo. So i guess for the time being until the cab gets redone you will be driving the shaker BC to Alberta during the winter?
this is one of the best videos. back again for a peek.
