Could you imagine if the trucker that was supposed to be escorted before you drove for MIGWAY? That would've been hilarious. You'd never come back to a South Carolina Port after that 😂.
LMAO, Karma's a bitch.
Imagine when we only had maps to navigate and no GPS.
Nearly 3 decades of trucking, and drivers still talk to themselves. 😂
@@RidingWithDave stop cuminte
@@PapaJohn1969
We used the Atlas & called for directions.
A good escort can get you from point A to B with no incident but a great escort who knows his stuff will make you feel like you've done that drop off/ pick up a hundred times even if it's your first time.
An excellent escort will get your sails up
That Escort man needs a raise.
Safe travels, Dave. Thank you for trucking.
Idk, a $130 for showing drivers where to go sounds pretty sweet in my book. Not sure how many he does a day or anything though.
he works for himself
$130 for 30 min of "work" dont seem too bad
@@jmm9999 He's not paid for 30 min of work, he's paid for being available and knowing all the stuff that he knows
Considering he gets paid by the drivers, it sounds like he's got his own business going, so he would set his own rates to some extent.
I drove flatbed for years. We always got directions like this. Even better, just longitudinal coords because there’s no roads yet! This was the most realistic trucking content I’ve seen in a while and I like your commentary.
600k miles with a flatbed, another 150k hotshot flatbed.
Once you reach the point of no Fs given and the fear of driving in the unknown .. trucking becomes one of the best career out there if you can take care of your health . You get freedom , nice view , peace and awesome stories . I been watching your video since you we're on a kayak close to a military ship .
You're right, you just get used to the unknown and the bs lol. Never really phases me anymore.
A 40 minute riding with Dave video. Yes yes yes I will take it any day of the week.
I was on this ship a couple weeks ago! We went through one hell of a storm thats been on the news lately. Been watching your videos for a while and love them. Thanks Dave! I appreciate what you do
I do not miss swinging doors and backing into tight places frequently at CFI, making the switch to local fuel haul was the right move for me at the right time.
Im currently in CDL school and this looks like the PERFECT example of trip planning. Thank you for this, see you on the road!
As a Charleston native, it was fascinating to see you experience our city from the trucker’s perspective. Glad you had a fantastic escort! You can probably imagine, but Charlestonians also get fed up with the number of trucks downtown, it can cause some serious problems for the trucks and for other drivers! Not to mention the roads themselves. Hopefully the city builds more facilities to help reduce problem spots like that right turn out of the port.
Glad you enjoyed the city!
good video as usual, so glad you had the escort guy, he was worth the $130 to make your delivery enjoyable and easy
That's the ship I met my wife on, I would have loved that delivery.
I have had the privilege to deliver Rgt to a aircraft carrier in San Diego, seeing my semi parked next to that carrier made that semi look like an ant compared to a mountain
Hey Dave. I have an update for you, I got my cdl and went to training with Schneider and I now work out of London Kentucky on the Walmart dedicated account. Awesome people and I just wanna thank you for inspiring me to do this career for myself I love your content and just keep doing what your doing bro. Stay safe
Awesome, best of luck to you! Happy to hear.
Walmart love it when I was on that account with Werner.
It’s bad that you owe the company your first years or they will sue you for training expenses
All the best to you Tristian!
Enjoy your run(s). Be happy and live well.
Blessings.
How do you like Schneider? I'm in the nky area and I'm looking for a company to train with
Been there done that, canned goods paper products was a blast hung out with the crew ate with them stayed overnight in Miami best load I've ever had
Super cool adventure today, Dave. Thanks for taking us along. Stay safe.
I delivered to the port of Boston once and the escort literally said “ turn here turn right there go straight and blah blah blah you’re there” that made for a fun experience
Every video lately has been great and love the longer videos! Keep up the good work Dave and stay safe out there!
It's great to have an experienced escort like that, it definitely makes the job easier.
I gotta say that $130 fee was worth it to get a private view of the carnival view ship and a private escort it was like a mini vacation for ya but awesome video as always
As a SC Resident, its really cool getting to see my locale from a truckers perspective. I live in the Columbia area, but I know my way around this state. The behind the scenes looks at the Ports are something else. Look forward to the next vid
Try delivering to Fort Jackson, SC at oh dark thirty when everyone is out and about with their drills and walks, plus the guard doesn't know how to get to the commissary AND the streets are not designed to accommodate a tractor with a 53 foot trailer. FUN!
My first ride with Dave-- fun and interesting! Next time i take a cruise, i will have a new appreciation for all the delivery truk drivers and take care to let them have the right of way. Thanks, Dave!
Love your videos Dave! Working on getting my CDL now and you have been a big inspiration!
You did good 🙏🙏truck drivers helping others
Damn Dave, I remember when you had like 2000 subscribers when I was like just turning 19-20. I loved your Gromski videos, still do remember all the fun shit you got up to, and miss them so much. But this is the first time a vid of yours has popped in my feed in so long and im glad you're doing well, even if this delivery went wacky at the start
Really liked the causal tour footage towards the end! Perhaps add this type of footage in more often? Great video as usual!
Great video Dave ! Thanks for sharing!
Heck yeah he was a great guy!!! Totally earned his keep❤. What a great experience AND tour❤
if the guy does see this comment here me and a ton of other people do think you for the tour of the port there. that was pretty dam cool for one of dave's videos.
Didn’t know you were back in the game dave thought you were done for good brother. Nice to see you on the road again bro. You where a big inspiration for me to get my cdl around two years ago. Keep on trucking gear jammer
I live in Charleston and love seeing your videos of driving through here!
That was a very good and interesting video. Enjoyed the scenery. I could almost feel the ocean breeze. Thanks.
I know some guys who go to Miami every week with everything you can imagine for ships to bring to the Islands. Bahamas and Jamaica. Frozen food, milk, meats, on and on. Everything has to be shipped to the Islands and the cruise ships have to be loaded with everything imaginable. I know a guy who brings caustic soda to the ships directly to use for exhaust treatment to reduce pollution. It's a nice niche to keep
this looks so stressful. Glad you're having fun.
When you started showing Fort Sumter I started to get goosebumps, so much history there❤. Bravo on an excellent, and informative video. Lots of twists and turns!❤
This is the dispatchers job Dave. What the hell else do they have to do? That escort is probably making a grand or 2 a day . Good gig if you can get it.
That tour was nice. Great way to pass the time while they unload.
I love vacationing Between Georgetown and Myrtle Beach. Never made it down to Charleston. Thanks for the video.
Nice to see that you are trucking again! I also saw you in Kingsport, TN!
Dave, great video. I've been to Port Everglades, FL but not delivering directly to a ship. And I drive a Volvo as well. And you are right about the turning radius. Another great thing is the transmission. Hands down, best on the road!
Hi Dave,first off,you are a professional driver no if's or but's! Watching you enjoy your work makes the whole experiance a pleasant one,very chilled,and courteous to other road users.
Aany would be drivers out there should watch this guy,you can learn a lot from him. I don't think you do it on purpose,bit you give so much info while driving. Planning a route and what to do when you get there is the most obvious one,and one so many dont seem to do and wing it! If you plan ahead it makes your day so much easier and less stressful.
All the best mate,keep it shiny side up,from us here in the UK.
I would have to sat this was a 4 star video Dave. Awesome job.
Nice ride Dave an getting paid for the adventure is priceless 🎉
I used to be escorted onto big jets at Teavis Air Force base with several loads...
Wheeee... Them are BIG planes 😊
STAY SAFE around all them 4 wheelers ❤
I actually went to Charleston, South Carolina several years ago and went on the bridge at the end of your video and went on the ships that you seen during your tour of the port and I can honestly say that I had the best vacation there.
awesome video and so cool to see the Charleston area again :-)
nice to have a good helper
As an often cruiser watching all the trucks come in and out of the port, this was an awesome point of view, thanks for sharing!
I love your videos and your jokes hope you had a great weekend and will have a great week
i'm a security agent working at a gate entrance, i love talking with the truckers and ive heard the most absurd stories happen to them on the road. and of course talk shit about the office or dispatch xd
I’ve read quite a few absurd stories from truckers as well😂 I have a love hate relationship with them honestly. A few years ago I was traveling with my mom in our car, and there was only truckers on the road at that time, and surprisingly we didn’t have any issues, the truckers just zoomed and we just zoomed. But like last year, we traveled and the traffic was so bad and the trucks were making it worse because they wouldn’t get out of the fast lane😂 but I respect how hard it is to drive those huge things
Well done dave I’m so proud of you always laughing on these adventures and 16:39 magnificent
Nice to see u down at the pilot in prosperity back in my woods hopefully I run into u down there one day until then keep on truckin 🤝🤝
Awesome escort! Hope my journeys are the same! Great stuff Dave!!
The amount of bugs on your windshield 😂😂
dave your funny man ive been wacthing your vids for 3 years i enjoyed your videos
lol it’s so weird hearing you talk about South Carolina towns because that’s where I’m from. Especially Georgetown and mt pleasant/Charleston
Good thing you were on the outskirts of Charleston instead of being downtown
Loads like this one are stressful but it's always something refreshing that give stories to tell, it remined me of my first load on my own from Poland to construction site next to Wembley stadium in London or unloading at the Amsterdam airport with all it's security and procedures to get on the site
Great video….Stay safe out there!!!!!!
Hi Dave, thank you for this great video. greetings from germany
Hey Dave back again with another banger I be watching your videos like I'm watching a movie lmfao 😂 🤣 I love yo videos so intertaing.
Hi Dave,
Cool Video again.
Best Greetings from Germany
👍😎
When I saw the into for the video, I knew exactly where you are because I had to go to the same pier when I went on a cruise.
I was getting off that ship 6/5/23!!!!!! Good job trucker!
I like that the escort was driving that Silverado like a simi pulling a trailer, taking turns really wide.
Lol about that same time I was in a CFI truck crossing the bridge next to the USS Yorktown delivering to a greenhouse
*Hey Dave’s escort!* You did a wonderful job as a true escort including sightseeing and all.
Bless you bro!
Nice to see you in South Carolina
Enjoyed the Ride!!!
Awesome job dave 😎😎
I live right there off Columbus, just be glad you didnt have to go further down the peninsula, its a nightmare lol
Nice. I’ve been to all of the ports there but never to that one!😂
Dude that guy you talked too was very helpful.
Great vid! Always challenges. Been to multiple ports; was just at Gloucester City, NJ. Had a TWIC, but they expire, so haven’t renewed. I just pay the fee, and each port is different, ComCheck/no cc, cc/debit/no cash/or ComCheck. Escorting is great. At NJ they texted a PDF of Port too. Ports like Ft Lauderdale, no escort needed/payment, just check in with Homeland Security (and easy access from I-595!) When I lived in SoFla, the Sysco drivers loved delivering to Port Miami Cruise Ships, pay included piece pay, but was all “no touch” and they’d unload a semi in 15 minutes, usually 3 per ship! Easy money for them. Drive safe!
i just realized the bob ross he has in the front
Ports are like that. First couple times I was in the port, Port Newark NJ and Wilmington DE and Baltimore and Buffalo NY. Each one was unique.
I’ve delivered to an island. Had to get on a ferry and we were squeezed in like a can of sardines.
Was that Palm Island…west coast Floriduh?
This guy was awsome !!
Did a port drop for a Dairy I worked at once, was a nice easy day. and the view was great.
Delivery trucking what comes
that was interesting, tks for the ride
Been on 8 cruises out of that port. Give me a shout when you are ready to book a vacation Dave.
you can custom routes on google maps, just drag the route line where you want to change something and it will add a stop where you moved it
example, if you want to turn left at road x instead of right, you drag from that point to the intersection you want to go and it will reajust the trip including this.
To remove a customization, you zoom and click on the dot on the trip line that have been created when you modified the trip.
I was in a US Navy aircraft squadron from 2003 to 2007 that shipped all our tools and other gear from WA to Norfolk, VA when we had to meet up with our aircraft carrier and go to sea. Typically we would get two 50 foot trucks, and we would load them at our hanger in WA, fly to VA, and unload the trucks on the pier by the carrier. So, imagine doing this, but the receiving end is a _Navy_ pier, with a big ole nuclear powered aircraft carrier sitting at the pier 100 feet away, and there was no loading dock, all the pallets were picked off the end of the trailer by forklift, and guys would hop in with pallet jacks to move the pallets to the end of the trailer.
It was good times, I miss it sometimes.
Nice driving. Nice truck. Nice vídeo
First video I have seen from this channel so far. It is spot on.👍
One small suggestion. Blur out phone numbers as you might not want to put it out there for everybody to see. His phone might get busy otherwise 🤣
I saw the intro and knew exactly where you were. That’s Union pier downtown at the state ports
Very cool Dave.
good memory's come back when he showed the ravenel bridge ,Fort Sumter ,and the USS Yorktown
Love thw videos Dave
We had a condo in MT .Pleasant SC. We learned really quick.. Down Town Charleston is not a place to be after dark..
From a South Carolinian Charleston is very tight in places. love your vids btw
That is one beautiful truck
Dave those were not chuck holes, those were craters. 😂
Online Transport dispatches you all kind of interesting places. Your escort being a former truck driver definitely helped you. The view was amazing as well. Thanks for the video!
Those people walked right behind your truck😲🫣
HooAH !! You made it !!
Thanks bud!
Up next: "What's up boyyyyyz you'll never believe where we went this time"
News: "breaking news....first successful truck delivery on the moon"
Then...
"Whats up boyzzzzz, we in Hawaii this time and don't ask me how I got here"
Awesome vid Dave! Really enjoyed it. Tip for tight rights; assuming you do safe & slow intersection maneuvering, Lol!
Approach turn down center lane, right signal ON. Do a lane to lane serpentine so that your just inside & pointed into turn from the left lane; leave yer butt only partially, not fully in the right lane behind you.
Won't prevent motorcyclists; however if they SEE you set up like that, and you don't see them, well Darwin. 😏
