    Congratulations I wish you nothing but prosperity! You gained a new subscriber keep doing what you’re doing! I’m sure you know this already but just because it’s a new truck doesn’t mean it won’t have its problems if you keep that in mind when payday comes around you’ll be set! Also TAXES save your money!!

      Actually age matters a lot. There is an age limit for getting your CDL. Tf you talking about? Lol
      Especially driving, age = experience. I'd never trust an 18 year old in a truck. Strictly because of lack of life and driving experience.

    Get urself a dorm fridge from Walmart or HD or Lowe's and save urself a lot of money. Also that mattress from the company store is expensive but if you take care of it it should last two or three years so it's worth it that way. And it's all a tax write off so keep receipts. And since ur starting during winter you need to make sure the bunk heater works really good.

    A little helpful tip on your tandems bro, set your trailer tandems so so that your trailer and drives are almost equal with just a little more weight on your drives. That will give you a little better fuel economy as well as a smoother ride on the road. Good luck on your journey sir.

    • @IsThatJustDex
      @IsThatJustDex  Před 5 měsíci +4

      Hey boss thank you! Ive heard a lot of these other comments before but never this one genuinely lol I really do appreciate it. I’ll share the word im sure I’m not the only one that doesn’t know it helps fuel economy to carry your weight towards the drives 🙏 appreciate it

    • @thetexastrucker7934
      @thetexastrucker7934 Před 4 měsíci +1

      ​@@IsThatJustDex Yep balancing out the weights on ur drives and tandems gives you better fuel economy and also a smoother ride. I balance them every time if necessary. Also whenever you get certified weights from a scale use those numbers to calibrate ur gauges and keep them calibrated especially if ur live unloading at the 90. Calibrate the trailer gauge one last time before they start unloading in case ur next pu is a live load. That way you know the gauges are accurate for the next load. Be safe out there.
