    May I say, "You are certainly a busy man." This "behind the scenes" video shows me that your line of work takes a lot of coordinating skills to get things accomplished. I can appreciate the fact that you save a ton of money by doing things yourself, as opposed to hiring things out.
    Thank you for sharing your part of your life with us, the viewers.
    Keep on trucking. ✌

    When you set that tailer down beside Aaron’s foot reminded of story. Years ago there was a local guy had a land clearing business, we hauled their equipment around to job sites. One of the guys always hauled his equipment, had a D-8 on with a the brush guards, they were heavy. He was dropping the trailer( a Talbert) and set it down on the owners foot, when he screamed it pain the driver jerked the handle up, it broke off and they had to find some vice grips to clamp onto the valve to raise off his foot. Yes, he was on crutches for a while.
    I had to plumb Bob to town the other day to get one my trailers! That’s his new nickname “plumb Bob”, that was a good one!

    I was OTR for a few years. There is a road in northern California that as you are headed west, you will start passing billboards with flashing caution lights that say 2 mile long 12%grade ahead with stop sign and 90% turn at bottom. I don't remember how many warnings there eas but there were several. Not only was there a stop sign and 90 degree corner at the bottom, the fire department was directly across the street in a brick building

    @q10498 Před rokem +2

    I'm a religious viewer for over 2 years at this point and until this video I never really understood why you always slow down so slow when at the pivot point when loading heavy equipment. I previously thought you would not want to stay at that point so long. But, now I see that if you slip on a brake, a track slips on one side, or one track moves a bit faster than another at that point you would loose control and you would be in serious trouble. Sliding off the trailer or worse flipping an excavator or dozer. So little credit is given to the skills required by heavy equipment operators at the level you and your team work at. I appreciate your videos thanks for posting.

      He and DP both move equipment around, as they're the only 2 with class A CDLs. I imagine which one makes which particular move depends on Captians schedule in his "real" job vs when DP needs stuff moved. Sometimes DP can wait til captain has his off shifts, and sometimes he can't
