My First Day As A T880 Kenworth Super Solo Dump Truck Driver. Spoiler, I Screw up. Trucking VLOG.
My first day of driving the T880 Kenworth Tremendous Dump Truck did not go as deliberate. Trucking and development. If you need to assist my channel, see …
Just found your channel watched a few previous videos great content. My wife is the office manager for a construction company she says her most important job is to make sure the dump truck drivers are paid on time and hours/ overtime is correct !
Take care out there & Blessings to you….from Boone Iowa
Hello! What’s the brokers in ur area? Or who do you haul for? Planing to move to Seattle area and I own a 10wheeler dump truck here in California.
Yes the phone mount is important !
Good video
Shit happens girl! Heavy equipment has a high failure rate, just the facts
Drove one of those for 2 years, like 120,000 miles, the most dangerous truck on the road, everyone around here has gotten rid of there's. The maintenance and all the bullshit that goes along with them have proven to not be worth it, we called them super sevens. Mine was a t800 with a c13, probably the the biggest dog of a truck I have ever drove, actually got out of trucking for 2 years after driving that truck was so sick of it.
Woooops all good no worries mate your good be safe!!
hey like they say shit happens.
Why the cab has a handle outside? Snow, ice, dirt. Inside looks like lorries in Europe from 80-90, switches, style. So many axles to carry weight but just one steering one, not clever at all.
They should put some kind of limiter switch on it to prevent that from happening.
Still beautiful as usual
Lol. The company I drive for, everything is driver abuse. According to the Mechanic:)
My first word upon discovery of the tarp still out would be f#ck! But yes, we shake our heads, suck it up and move on 🙂 Stay safe D.
Shit happens
Good job
Good luck
You will be ok
You are doing exactly what any reasonable owner would want you to, owning your performance both good and not so good. I've had many people on teams over the years that have done exactly that and it says a lot about your commitment to being professional. I'm not CDL driver but have driven many things over the early part of my career, have to say I'm a bit peanut butter and jelly over your new K-whopper.
Cut yourself a break. It was your first day!
I was taught ….. when you quit making mistakes…… is when you quit learning. Hang in there sweetheart, you'll be feeling like an "old hand" before ya know it. The new rig is beautiful, ….. so is the driver.
Didn't anyone explain the workings of this truck to you ? Fasten one of those bubble levels on the hydraulic tank in front of the box, it'll take the guessing out of the equation. As per Donald Trump, your fired !
Seems like an honest mistake, don't let it ruin your week!
So does everything lift up if you back up and they’re down?
Never drove a dump anything looks cool though what is the purpose of that pusher way out back like that.
Needs a rethink on that tarp system, some kinda lockout!
wonder why some kind of "interlock" couldn't be added so the axle could not be lifted or stopped at a certain point to prevent an "overlap" !
you noticed the rear axle steered – it looks like the other 3 are that way also from viewing the vid you did checking out your new "ride"! ohm and the "good" part about making mistakes is that we learn from them – part of that slogan of learning something new every day.
If you are looking for a great phone mount check out a company called iottie on Amazon, I have used these for many vehicles and phones and they grip to almost anywhere
You came in on a Saturday to Familiarize Yourself with that Truck. That Company should have been part of that. Shame on them for the lack of Training!! You did nothing Wrong! It doesn't matter how Long you've been Driving. New Truck, New Training!!!
Thank You See you on the next Haul
