Hello guys and welcome to today's video! I've been to this delivery before, and even have an older video of it! But today we almost get into the place in one straight shot! Come along for the adventure....
Side note, I wasn't intending on releasing this video right now but my last video I've uploaded twice now (and with it being over an hour long, the upload takes me multiple days on this old rural wireless internet) and each time it fails during processing, so here's a little video to tie you over with!

If it was a Deepgrove place in ATS, I still would NOT be there today. Those are **bleeping** unreachable because the engines are too weak for taking on even just a 10% grade if you get a job with 100+k lbs oversize load... Only time I ever had an issue like that in ETS2 was in a quarry with the skilled parking option set an the spot being on a ridiculously high hill - and I just have a 600hp truck there with a single drive axle currently. Just had to switch to safe parking to "fix" it... XD Why do they keep giving me jobs to deliver heavy stuff to places where the trucks basically are incapable of going to? XD PS: On my first oversize load job in ATS I couldn't even get out of the place I started in because of that... and those trailers with the jeep and booster are an absolute nightmare, simply because you only get one try as they're impossible to reverse due to immediate jackknifing even in the slightest attempt... :D

I admire your patience driver. You set a good example for new drivers out there who think they have to rush through manoeuvres like this for the benefit of others who are only thinking about themselves anyway. You start rushing and that’s when things can go south pretty damn quick. Take your time and do it right the first time.

@Kenneth James.....well said, but putting it in is one thing, getting it out again a completely different story (when backing up, you make the "rear-steering" of the combo your advantage (it doesn't cut corners), but coming out, your trailer(s) will cut the corner...and you won't necessarily always have the space for a wide turn. I've had situations where the only way to get my T/T out of a certain customer's dock was to drop the trailer, swing around the building with the tractor and re-hook the trailer to pull out that way.....all other drivers refused to go there because of the extra hassle....but I enjoyed doing it ;-)

I used to drive a Pete 379, and I can tell you that they look cool, but they are 40 years out of date. They are claustrophobic with their narrow low roofed cabs. But the thing that concerns me is their floors are 3 or 4 inches lower than any other truck. People think that guys sit low in a Pete because it looks cool. Nope! It's because of the low floor! If I set my seat at normal height my feet dangle in mid air. To reach the floor I need to set the seat low. The problem then is, I can't even see the hood, or that nice hood ornament! Give me a modern Cascadia or even a Columbia any day. Ya' I know. They don't look as cool, but at least you can see where you're going.

@@SternDrive Prefer a Volvo myself. A Volvo with the same wheelbase gets into tight spots effortlessly compared to a 379 not to mention the room and comfort. My company buys new 379s for the resale value. Most people may not believe it but a Volvo does pretty good when the pavement ends and the grades get a little steep as long as you don't hit a big rock.

Once you catch onto it, a B train is more maneuverable than a conventional trailer. The key is knowing when to catch the trailer to avoid jack-knifing. Watching some dump truck drivers pulling wagons is pretty impressive too. Tight spaces show who the good drivers are.

The most important thing on backing up a tractor trailer is preplanning, knowing where you will place your wheels of your trailer/trailers and your front tractor axle. This guy has pre-planned his moves that why he makes it to look easy, BUT IT WAS NOT EASY. I have been driving for 36 years and I have to admit that you are a great driver! Driving a tractor trailer is not only knowledge and experience but also a talent! That is the difference between a good driver and an excellent one.
