    Enjoy your videos Dan, a true gentleman, I'm not a driver but grew up the son and grandson of owner operators and your videos show trucking for what it is , no BS no glory, just stay busy and loaded. Best I have seen on you, you make most the other boys on here look like they're standing still

    I'm in full agreement with all the other positive comments about your GREAT channel and videos. Dan, your doing a wonderful job showing the reality of truck driving, without any bs or spin, just the way the job is. Your opening imagery, and camera perspective, ( very creative and cool) on this video is a perfect example. How many so called, "professional' truck drivers would show the amount of 'pull ups ' it takes to safely enter an inside dock? I think you only had 2, and with your 'rears' placed as far back as flatbeds are, only 2 pull ups shows you know your stuff. Heck, I could slide my rears way up, in extremely tight inside dock deliveries, and I can't remember how many pull ups I did to plug in the 53' box, safely. It was way more than 2 and took way more time than you did. Thanks for the sharing of your expertise, adventures and honest approach to truck driving, oh, and the work of putting out these videos, that's a job in itself. Be safe...PRO driver.

    That opening part where you had the camera overlooking the flatbed while you backed in and got loaded was awesome. Really good stuff! What do you think about putting your coordinator on speaker phone and pre-arranging not to talk specific dollar amounts so you could maybe share one of those conversations?? Your channel is growing faster these days. Congratulations!

    A quicker fix would be one of those wide clamps like the one on there, good to get you home and then fix it. Of coarse as hot as it's been over here in AZ. it might be better to fix it there. Dan if you read this check on a load of sheetrock. A lot of drywall comes out of Vegas to AZ. Worth checking out. Stay safe>
