Backing a trailer is a no-brainer breeze!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Indoor dock from an alley with a telephone pole in front of the door. Got it, but definitely took better part of an hour. Gotta love NYC.

 

Can't wait for the day that you show up to the truckstop late at night and the only spot left is on the front row, in front of the pumps nonetheless next to this beauty. Let's see how easy it is then.............

Be humble in all aspects of driving whether it's going forwards or backwards, your training pad at school is in no way a representation of the real world. Those orange cones just fall over, the hood of this truck won't react the same way, and yes this is a working truck owned by CDT out of Lake City, Fl so don't think you'll never have to back in beside a truck like this.

 

Is that the truck named Orange Crush ?????

 

yeah, from what I know when TDT got bought out by TMC, Clint who is the son of Terry Dicks started CDT and runs reefer trailers now. Don't quote me on all of this, but I think that's how the story goes.

 

Oh crap......that 1/2 eaten bag of cornuts and flat soda on the frontage road next to the large bush is looking pretty good now....

 

You got that right. One momentary lapse of concentration at the wrong time and it will be a very bad day.

Crash

 

3 am you have been up for 14hours 1 spot in the back of the Ta in the rain mirrors are covered in water the truck on the right is crooked the the one on the left is straight as a board ... The guy behind you has his lights on bright and you have that attitude of I LOVE IT.. you will hit that truck on your right side

 

I am glad you feel good..I hope everyday is great for you. Just be mindful of your surroundings.. some people in this industry are not very forward thinking and will not do anything to help you out.. even if it is as simple as turning their headlights off so they wont blind you.. like I said on another thread keep us posted and be honest with yourself.. this is a harsh industry with no room of error... The difference in everyone going home safely and prison is a split second.

 

Paris,TX. Campbells soup, reefer, blind side back, over the railroad tracks, with pallets on both sides and in front of your truck into a indoor dock with trucks on both sides. so much fun lol. Oh, make that dark 30 too.ewww
