Oh yay congratulations! Welcome to the family! 💜💚

Remember the adage...you go down the hill the same way you go up. Slow and easy. I pulled the same when Fed Ex Ground was ROADWAY PACKAGE SYSTEMS. I did my test in a blinding downpour in Scramento....the next night I was pulling over Donner on my way to Chicago. Been operating since I was a kid, with my dad's 10 wheelers. But, I'd only hooked up and took a drive one time....the only experience I had. I sure made some good ducats for a couple of years! Once you really get the feel, you'll be white knuckled most of the time. Tap er Light, and maintain your speed. You'll be fine. Good Luck!

ONE MORE THING!! Although the long hauls are in short supply...keep in mind this. Get to know your McNally's and study the hell out of your mileage. If you can't go eastbound on 80 from Sac. Head down 99 and jump on I-40. From Sacramento to Chicago the difference in miles is 110...that's only 2.5 hrs. There are always ways around...75% of the time. Make sure you can grab a light gear for your pup...you'll thank me later!

what,s your name

Fascinating job on the doubles💪 🏦........🏦........🚚 Happiness By The Net Worth 💰

Oh my! I’m too paranoid not to look.

@@ShelbyHBTM Many years ago I was pulling a flatbed trailer, with 46,000+lbs of drywall on the deck, that completely unhooked doing 70mph while I was headed I-68W in West Virginia. This happened right around the 17 mile marker early in the morning. I had hooked to a preloaded trailer a couple of days before in PA and went home for the weekend. I dropped the trailer and took the truck home to clean inside and wash it. With the weekend over, I re-hooked and made three ninety degree turns and traveled about 8 miles total before I felt a little 'bump' just after coming back out of overdrive. I looked back in my mirror(s) and sparks were flying everywhere! Another driver, I had recently passed, was screaming on the CB that my trailer had just came unhooked! That driver was about as nervous as I was! I was so dumbfounded by what I was seeing that I let the truck slow to a point where the trailer was now sliding towards me! Talk about a fireworks display! Thank God there wasn't traffic beside of me, along with the fact of having a big enough engine to be able to roll back into the fuel and pull away from the trailer without the possibly of missing a gear due to the excitement level! The trailer slid for a good distance, uphill, before coming to a sizzling and asphalt boiling stop. One of the dolly legs was on the verge of rolling completely under the trailer but the trailer was still resting on both legs, nevertheless! Had it slid much further, that leg would have collapsed and there would have been a load of drywall scattered everywhere! I didn't have a single broken sheet upon delivery! For a long period of time afterwards there were gouge marks from the trailer dolly pads up the hill. The wrecker service came out with a tow truck and a bob tail tractor to see what needed to be done. Summers Towing was a great help! summerstowing.com We were going to re-hook the trailer onto my tractor but the fifth wheel wouldn't unlock. They took the trailer to their shop and I went to New Stanton, PA Kenworth to have the fifth wheel checked. It turned out the fifth wheel was worn out and needed rebuilt! The safety latch was even wedged from where the trailer had came unhooked. A few people have said that it was my fault because I either high coupled or that I didn't get completely latched but it was the worn out fifth wheel that caused the unhook. The mechanic at the Kenworth shop said that it was in no way my fault, he showed me the fifth wheel after he had removed it and had flipped it over. I had driven a tractor pulling trailers for at least seven years at that point and a total of driving commercially for about twelve! So, I wasn't a rookie, nor was I a complacent driver. I had just started working for the owner of the truck the day before I picked up the load. It had been his personal tractor, until he bought his new one. The phone call to him that early morning was a very pleasant experience, considering what had just taken place. I broke the bad news to him first and followed up with the BLESSING that no one was hurt and there wasn't a major accident or damage! He wasn't upset or anything! I commend you for the way you coupled to the trailer! You did not slam into it like a lot of drivers do. Backing up and slamming the king pin is what causes premature wear on fifth wheels and failures such as mine! I have always hooked in the same fashion as you and the individual that you replied to, Steve N. I always have crawled under the trailer to visually check if the fifth wheel was locked and I've always carried a flashlight, even during the day, to shine back onto the lock! Always gave the trailer a tug / pull test, just to be sure. By the way, my first trailer experience was a petroleum tanker in the beginning of winter all the while learning how to back up, too! Keep the shiny side up and the rubber side down! Safe travels and may it be an enjoyable journey!

I always give a tug and look at the jaw to make sure it's locked on the kingpin. It only takes 1 time cranking a loaded trailer back up to learn your lesson.

robbie G she doesn’t have a husband bro or a boyfriend. Don’t be so salty. 😎🤙🏼. Let a brother just enjoy the view.

robbie G I don’t feed the trolls...but for you I’ll make an exception...obviously she has a camera man look in the description it gives his name etc... 😂🤣🙄. My bubble is good bro you’re the one sounding like somebody peed in his Cheerios this morning.

@robbie GYou're wrong. In her previous video she states that the camera man isn't allowed to touch anything on the truck. She's the trucker, he's the camera man/video editor. If it hurts your masculine pride that she can do what your precious Indiana Jack can do, go home and cry to your mama.

@robbie G come back when you become Robert or Bob.

Lots of practice 😁

Awww oh my gosh you are so kind. ☺️

Hmmm

Lack of experience and knowledge combined with a few company regulations can buy and construct places like Primatara, a 188 acre nag farm with a 70,640 sq/ft shack. Same can also produce "Liver Belly" which may become a tombstone eulogy, based to lack of experience and knowledge. Enjoy!

Hooking doubles presents another problem. Do dolly safety chain hook left to left and right to right, or do the cross and hook? There needs to be a law on that question.

@Mars Exulte Actually I am. The regular girl would be afraid of even staying or touching that tractors and dollies. But Shelby is adorable and brave one!

I was kind to our LCV drivers. One guy bribbed me with a coffee everyday to help ! Dropped rear trailer in a good spot . Drivers set up dolly then I would hook up lead trailer . Stuck around long enough to test all lights . Then he just had to hook and go !! A 53 and tandem axle shunt truck is easy. Give me a bunk truck and short trailers and I would be completely lost !! My 1st shunt truck was a 84 GM General.

😂

There are a ton of free full length movies on youtube.

😍

Sexy too!!

doubles are easy. Try triples

K L you would think so. But its hard staying in shape doing trucking.

@@abdallahghani4754 Round is a shape... LOL

I hear this so much! When I used to train people I’d have them back a dolly for a solid hour 😂 it was so much fun and so many laughs! I used to do the orientation and a full day of training with new hires. I’d run through everything super hands on. Always setting people up to succeed!

I worked for Estes for a cpl years, watching the old boys back that dolly behind their lead and hook their tail was impressive. I got decent at backing the dolly behind the lead but not that good

gun freak , you don’t help them?. I do at work all the time.

@@anthonymartinez8488 Good man too many people stand back and watch shtf.

Don't let an old farmer back stuff up. They will break your ego. My grandfather thought nothing of backing a steerable wagon, hooked off center to an offset bailer into a barn, tractor and all, in about 5 minutes. I shrugged and gave up. :)

Hooking up double 40 foot containers with a tandem converter is also fun I use to do that 3 or 4 times daily

Yay

He is pretty cool 😎

They have air ride even on their dollies. And us at Freight, we still run damn Silver Eagles with those 5th wheels on top of leaf springs. Our dollies suck.

@@Gun_Talk yeah they do! I’ve seen countless silver eagles and still say “Viking” on them!😂🤷‍♂️

Stop and sleep.

Hell yeah! It was nice to meet you this morning!

@Randy Rodes How? He just said he's the guy that set her internet up. What's wrong with that?

@@jonnywilson9117 haters want to hate on someone.

Sad that you call someone a creeper just for saying hi.

@@ShelbyHBTM Bahaha! That's funny, getting a comment from the actual internet technician!

Hey girl!!! 🥰

Yingnan Zhou dang right she is beautif. I would go team driving without a doubt

No Azz No PLAZZ

Most people aren't full of unstoppable determination and 4' tall LOL

The camera mans info is in the description , did you even check? a Also she mentioned it in the previous video.

Exactly!

I checked, doesn’t really explain. You guys seem touchy about it. Is he her boyfriend?

@@1214101 this guy has a point, cuz I mean come on what guy goes on long trips just to record..you know they banging lol.

Sorry you got the grumpy folks.

@Austin Afridi try hauling cars lazy

Try dollar tree unloading 40 thousand pounds of freight by hand 3 times a week!!

Why would I want to try anything harder then what I currently do? Lol Hauling liquid is good money, aerodynamic trailers I don’t wait too load or unload. And I can get into tighter spots at truck stops. Only down side is freezing my ass off in the winter and trailers valves freezing since I’m in Canada. Haha

@@dakotarussell5941 In my book, you won this one, hands down! Keep up the good work driver, we gotta make it through this toilet paper apocalypse! Thanks for all you do.👍👍😎

Tanker sounds good. Can't be much harder than heavy haul in Alberta during winter.😄

Rather pull doubles than a 53' anymore triples is when it kinda gets to be a pain.

Friends!

It’s that smile! 🤙🏾

high production qualitym good personality, doesnt bitch and moan about youtube alogrhim or demonitized. its not about being fair its about being likable.

Yeah I’m digging the production quality and the music. I’m done listening to dudes on go pros with wind noise making videos

Content is why, some people "grind" years making trash. For you to assume anything else is demeaning to her and everyone else successful on KZfaq.

Sorry to burst your bubble but it is called algorithms. She is in aligment with youtube philosophies and gets a wide array over the ''suggestions'' tab, relatively to this. Its more than being agreeable at that point it requires strategy to blow up like this.
