The Trucker Resources channel is here to help you find the solutions to anything in the trucking industry. Whether you are a company driver, Independent contractor or an owner operator with your own authority, there are so many ways to succeed in this industry. I would like to help you do that. I will interview truck drivers from all aspects of the industry that are successful. I will review products for company drivers and owner operators. I will help you learn how to build relationships with employers, brokers, mechanics and shippers/receivers. Then we will also have a little bit of fun by exploring truck shows and a few other things.
My name is Rob Finch. I have been driving for 20 years with 12 of them being as an owner operator . What I have learned about this industry is that there are many ways to succeed and nobody can do it without the help of others. After 20 years in the business I still call on friends, mechanics, and yes even my dad to make sure I get it right.

The Freightliner FLD: Workhorse and Styling
Переглядів 1,4 тис.День тому
In this Video I'm going to talk a bit about the Freightliner FLD 120. In 1987, when it was released, it was an extremely innovative truck and went on with years of success. It is still a favorite for owner operators because of its maneuverability and its roomy engine compartment that makes it easy to work on.

Slow the hell down in construction zones!! We all hate them, but we have to deal with them. A driver that did not pay attention just killed 5 innocent people that were probably also mad that they were stuck in a construction zone. After Demolishing 2 cars and killing everyone in them he still had enough speed to hit a tractor trailer full of eggs and push it into a ditch. Enough is enough!! SLO...

That's one rig..
Love your program really good work my grandfather was a trucker all his life he started with a wooden wagon hauling sheep the name of O M Cozad
Like these trucks, started at a mega carrier and a local company took a chance on me and hired me on automatic restriction and all. Anyways, a 98’ FLD 120 with a 10 speed is what I learned on. Only complaint was how dim old trucks headlights are.
Work 55 hours and no overtime…I washed my hands of this LTL carrier long time ago
I love your Channel, you give more unique interesting news stories and more detailed information than any other channel
She had to be more than drunk to think see could get away in a truck. When a hopped mustang can do that
Some people are just that stupid lol
I was born and raised in South Western WV. In general (and I dont mean to sound biased) but WV turns out some of the finest most skilled truckers in the industry because the tiny, steep, switch back riddled roads that most truckers wont attempt is the roads we learned to drive truck on. The WV natives are for the most part pretty trucker friendly as well. When her mugshot was posted, I had to go to the comments section and was especially disappointed to see a lot of people taking shots at truckers and lumping all of us truckers on the road now with this dirtbag. It was a big black eye for the industry and especially those of us truckers who have done our best to respect the communities and residents where we have worked which I still do to this day anywhere I'm at in the country; just to have some loose cannon from out of town get negative attention put on us and judged by a lot of people because she dont know how to act. Her home state isnt listed, only her current charges and a lot of assumptions that this is just the breed of truckers we are today. That should piss off every trucker everywhere too.
I don't disagree with you at all. I always say that WV will make you work for every mile. There isn't too much sitting back and driving straight lol.
@@truckingresources4240 that’s a fact. Lol
Hey ! I knew a guy that was a crane operator in the oil fields and drank most of the day, also a lot of them do drugs. Be careful out there.
What a shame!!
It's because women truck driver's are better
Will never end.Not enough enforcement.Laws are a joke along with plea bargain.
Amen to that!!
A truck I always wanted to drive a fld120 with the big condo sleeper. Instead my first truck was a 2003 century with schneider unit 59278
Don't matter. He. She. It. U drive a truck. YOU MUST BE HELD TO A HIGHER STANDARD
Absolutely!! I can respect any driver that can respect our industry with professionalism. It just seems to be getting less and less.
I heard she was hauling a load of Red Bull that be delivered to a beer warehouse in a town somewhere this makes good truck drivers look bad
I hadn't heard that one yet!!
I happened to work for Fedex Ground in Sacramento and I remember a Celedon trailer parked in the yard less than 2 weeks before (Celedon's) shutdown. My employer receives these trailers and we load them customers' packages, then send the driver to the destination hub. The provider strictly designates that trailer head to that destination (FedEx's) prior to heading the provider's local terminal.
They said on the news she was hauling Red Bull.
its not ok? but she drives better than swift and didnt hit the poles she might be trainer for swift in the future😁😁
🤣
I don't have a answer for this stuff, but I do have a question. Do you think some of this goofy shit can be avoided by tightening hiring practices? Seems like the only requirement nowadays is a warm body and a heartbeat. On the other hand, I have no idea how to tell if someone is going to go batshit crazy in the future. Pretty damn frustrating.
Absolutely, I am so tired of these things happening and making our industry look bad!!
I am a female driver myself. Have been for 33 years. Not worried about this making me or any other drivers look bad. As far as I’m concerned she just made herself look bad!! We have a whole lot of drivers out here making us look bad just by how they drive!! I do get your point though. The trucking industry is going downhill so bad because of a whole lot of companies putting the wrong people behind the wheels of their trucks. Look how many of them can’t read, write, speak or understand English!! That is a really big problem for the whole industry!!
You are right. It isn't getting any better. Stay safe out there Driver!!
What a moron she is so stupid thanks to the police for doing a great job getting her
The Irony of Driving Intoxicated hauling Alcohol 🤨🫣🤫
I thought the same thing lol!!
How bout a few of us go bail her out and take her to the local bar? I bet she could really use a drink right now!🤣🤣🤣. JK
Wowŵwwwwŵ!!!!!! Definitely RIDICULOUS 🫣😬🙄🤯😳😲😫😤😡
Mabey a story about yo-yo?
Not a bad idea. What an icon of our industry!!
This is the sort of thing that causes the rest of us more hoops to jump through do do are job
Amen to that!!
What you see on the outside on people half the time is just a disguise for who they truly are
Saw this video on Bonehead Truckers the other day .He didn't have any story along with it though.
I was sick for a couple of days and didn't see that Bonehead covered this.
@@truckingresources4240 It was great to hear the back story on this video!
I seen that the other day some where, dont know how she thought she was going to get away be safe my friend🎉
I know, the whole thing was ridiculous!
I saw this on Bonehead Truckers but Ike didn't know the backstory
My dad had over 10 million miles with McLean trucking
Great video, sir. I like the idea of specific equipment history videos.
I knew Harry back when he was an owner operator,,,great guy and when he had those trucking companies he treated and paid his drivers very well.
Never heard of Transcon huh, we used to call them trashcan on the CB and they were all over on the PA turnpike
The FLC is an awesome truck too liked them much better than the fld they the had the best interiors and dashboards dont forget the glitter steering wheel they also had a nice front grille with the double round head lights just a beautiful truck
I worked for ANR advance we shut down in 1998 at that time we had the oldest icc number I think it was 264 originally Garrett freight number but was purchased by ANR in the 80s and they kept and used the number until we closed now I work for ABF freight and were 101 years old starting in 1923
I'd love 2 clean this Bad 1 up come see us @ HNH Truck n trailer wash address 227 AL-186 Tuskegee Al 36083
This is what happened to most of the major carriers after "Deregulation" . President Jimmy Carter signed the Motor Carrier Act in 1980. The legislation removed federal entry controls in interstate trucking and made it easier for carriers to reduce rates. I was just a 12 year old kid in 1980, so I don't know the whole story. My grandpa started driving truck in 1945 after the war as an O/O. In 1950 he joined the Teamsters and drove for Chet Base, Time DC, US Motors, and finely for Rogers Trucking. Inc; hauling for Simpson Paper out of Pomona California. He retired in 1989. I was an O/O from 1990-1996, then hauled food grade tanker for local family outfits until 2000, when I joined the "Smokies". I'll retire soon, but miss driving.
Sweeeet!!
Chulo penco..
Nice history lesson
Thanks for this video. I'd like to enter the boot contest. Thanks.
Thanks so very much for this video. I worked for Sea-Land Service, Inc. and we knew about Malcolm McLean and our heritage. Very sadly, Sea-Land Service no longer exists. It was sold to Maersk Lines in 1999.
What about doing celadon
I really enjoy your videos on old trucking companies. I worked in the railroad industry in the late 70's and early 80's when deregulation turned the railroad industry upside down with mergers and acquisitions. Lots of good folks lost their good jobs. I'd like to request program content on the following: The Sunset of the ICC & Deregulation in Trucking. Lee-Way history. Demise of Texas Intrastate Giants Central Freight and Merchants Motor Lines. Thankyou.
My Grandmother worked for R & L carriers for 28 years. She was still working when she passed suddenly. Her life insurance policy beneficiary was her mentally handicapped daughter who was legally incompetent and unable to sign over money from the life insurance to pay for the funeral. I was 24 years old at the time and had just taken in my disabled aunt. When I found out that I had no way to pay for the funeral I was devastated. I received a call from the funeral home that the whole funeral and burial was paid for a whole $14000. Apparently the HR representative I worked with contacted the owner and he personally paid for her entire funeral. I can never fully express my gratitude to this company for what they did for me and my family! This was in 2014
I worked at the Houston location from 2005 - 2009 as the Sr. BILLER and I don't recall a couple things you've mentioned.
Yeah, on my UA-cam channel, I have begun to show off my custom Lego trucks from the late 80s to the mid 90s
I own a FLD 112 with a Cummins M11. Air and all still works. Great truck.

but its ok for all the 4 wheelers to smoke be on their phones speeding and reckless driving and making unsafe lane changes passing on the shoulder . Not many hw cops around chicago.
I was stopped for speeding once the officer opened my passenger door asked for the nomal thing's no problem then he asked were is the beer whiskey. Me being a old school driver I don't carry anything like that in my truck. Feel free to look anywhere you like.he said I don't have any reason to your answers was all I needed. I ask him do drivers really do that. He said more than you could imagine
