#52 The exhaust swap was a FAIL ~ How am I going to fix this?

Episode 52 Oct 31, 2025 I'm an independent owner/operator, hauling flatbed freight in and around the Western United States. After making a local delivery on Monday, we take the rest of the week to make repairs, update graphics and install the new exhaust. It didn't go well... Hanging on to old school traditions and methods in a 21st century trucking world that's tracked and monitored. I own a truck, and I make a living with it. This is how I make a buck with a truck. On this channel, I'll share stories of loads hauled, places delivered to and some of the people I meet, while doing what needs to be done to earn a living as an independent owner/operator. 00:00 Morning Driver! 01:21 Intro 01:42 Loading and delivering a man lift 04:04 Tuesday 06:00 Tire swap 08:34 Sending unit swap 10:50 Wednesday 11:15 Tire rotate 12:27 Air line repair 14:05 Hood cleanup 15:08 New vinyls 16:16 Thursday 18:04 Alignment 21:08 Decal removal 21:56 Exhaust removal 25:14 Friday 25:41 Going to load and truck wash 27:12 Unboxing the exhaust 29:25 Saturday 30:02 It's horrible 31:16 Next week preview
