I'm no fan of Trump, but I'm glad the gun-crazed kid missed. I haven't followed the latest info about the kid or the Secret Service failure since around when it happened, but those things almost don't matter. The Secret Service will learn from it, and all the gun-crazed kids out where with an AR-15 and probably wearing "tactical camo underwear" will more likely become copycats, than learn from it. Regardless of their politics, the bigger problem is that kids who have spent their whole life playing first-person shooter games, are just too quick to fantasize about using real guns in real life, to shoot real people. Older folks who grew up not glued to a gaming console, have a better perspective on getting along with people they disagree with. I was on the pistol team in college, got an NCAA varsity letter for shooting. Crazy, angry, or outcast kids simply were not allowed on the team, and it didn't matter if they were a good or bad shot. I suspect that the coach/kids in PA simply may not have been comfortable having an outcast kid on the team, because the bullets are real, and school-related mass shootings are a common thing now. I agree with you about the technical aspects of the shooting, how a trained sniper would not have missed, and how lucky Trump was. All you have to do is take a yardstick and touch the 18 inch mark to the top of your ear, and then see how little you can change its orientation (while keeping the 18 on your ear) without it touching your skull. As far as anyone who complains that he should have heard a crack rather than "whizzing", all I can say is that when unexpected things happen quickly, there's no telling how our eyes, ears, and brains interpret it. Personally, I've heard whizzing and crackling sounds of meteors probably 50-100 miles away, when there is no way the sound can travel to reach my ear instantly. There can be an electrical phenomenon that the brain directly perceives as sound, when it's not sound. In my case, I could even correctly tell where in the sky a meteor was, by the perceived 3D nature of its "electrophonic meteor" sound in my head. For me, it only happened on about 1 out of every 200 meteors or so, during the great Leonid meteor storm of 1999. Usually the brightest ones, but not always. As a golf caddy for 2 summers, my ears were occasionally closer to a fast-moving golf ball than is safe, and again, the sound was instinctively converted into a ball location and trajectory by my brain. So, I never question how people describe things like bullets whizzing by, especially supersonic ones like a .223 where it goes by with its own little Mach shock wave cone before the muzzle blast sound reaches the person hearing it. Also, with the bullet hitting his ear, the imbalance in what his two ears heard, must have been extreme. Unbalanced sound (like if a stereo channel is intermittently flaking out) is something my ears/brain don't handle well. It feels both really uncomfortable, and totally confuses my brain about what I'm hearing, and from where. Anyway, I'm guessing that he was more traumatized by it than he realized, and it's probably part of why he's doing do few campaign events. Probably more comfortable to go golfing than to go back to doing something that almost ended your life.

U have to get the old Freon out in order to get the Freeon work Cold.

Out of Freon

R-The company didn’t want to pay for the labor on the Fliaring

Thanks, brother, for putting up some videos

Good job converting to a mini split. It's a game changer. Get a level to mount to your dash, or a digital level to read out your roll angle. Find out what angles in each direction make the mini split leak. Them make sure to park only at angles between those two. On a bubble level, mark where you have to keep the bubble between. Or, of course, figure out how to finagle whatever catches the condensation, to hold deeper water to get it to the drain before leaking.

What do you guys pay to park there?

good payin loads right now, for a minute lol

These long rambling vlogs are great. Enjoy your time at home!

Landstar doesn't take cut from unload fee it goes straight to you

A master class in fast food purchasing. I've advanced to using the kiosks, but not the apps. I guess it's time, though I hate clogging my phone with apps for every store I shop at, every place I eat, etc.

Those APU's all suck. My Thermo King wouldn't run for more than 10 seconds. After 5 trips to different shops I gave up. The battery powered one I had wasn't reliable either. It worked about 1/2 the time. I don't get it. They can freeze a whole 53 foot trailer to -20 but they can't cool down a truck cab. HA!!

The worst agent I have worked within my 3 years here is one called WMD another guy made a video about him.Here's the link. ua-cam.com/video/Z4_ZihDCpbo/v-deo.htmlsi=pqNqtQxYeIQ54iiR

Hey brother Don't know if you remember me but I'm from Oklahoma also I'm at landstar also now I leased on about 2 months ago...I hate how the agents post loads and then won't let you book at the rate posted and try to get you to take it for less ...happen to me a few times already.

I just drove that stretch of road on April 19th when returning from about a 3-week road trip in my Prius Prime, to the solar eclipse, some visiting in AZ, some dental work in Mexico, and some hiking in NV. I stopped for gas one exit after your in Burlington CO, at a Sinclair about another mile down the road nearer the KS border. Decided to jam it full of gas before entering KS, with CO prices being better. It took 5.04 gallons, having driven 270.2 miles since the last fill in Avon (Vail/ Beaver Creek area). At both stops, "regular" was 85 octane. I hate that, but in Avon mid-grade was priced crazy high 60 cents over regular, so I used the 85 for the only time on my trip, only needing 3 gallons anyway. In Burlington, the 87 only cost 30 cents more than the 85, so I got the 87. Then inside the Sinclair, I remembered that at a Sinclair in NV, I had gotten a huge (28 oz maybe) hot chocolate and it had only been $1.70, so I decided to get another one here. Oddly they had a sign by the cups saying "The cups are NOT FREE. They are 25 cents." I thought "Do people really steal styrofoam cups from convenience stores?" So anyway, I made a 20oz hot chocolate at the machine, went to the register and asked how much. "Got a quarter?" "No, it's a hot chocolate and my change is in the car." "Then it's free." I guess it's free hot chocolate with a 25 cent cup there, or at least was on that day with that employee. Then I headed into KS, remembering horror stories on "Lehto's Law" about how KS troopers pull every trick in the book to do illegal car searches, claiming they are legal. Sure enough, short of Topeka, I got a bogus traffic stop claiming I'd drifted onto the shoulder line. He was "Just checking you're OK, not fatigued or drunk.... will run your license and if it's OK, will just give a warning." But while he is "running the license" his buddy the canine cop and two or three other troopers arrive. Dog jumps on the rear passenger window, presumably a bogus drug alert. Next thing I know, I'm being escorted two car lengths in front of the car while 4 cops rummage through my car for 15 or so minutes of warrantless searching. At the end of it, they just say "You're right, there's nothing in there. Bye" And they take off, leaving me to repack the Tetris puzzle what was my car after an eclipse expedition and hiking expedition. The only good things I can say about them, are that I was beginning to think they'd plant drugs, and they didn't. And that they were amiable guys while trampling my constitutional rights by doing their usual script at the very fringe of what their courts let them routinely get away with. They've been slapped around by the federal courts over it, but just change their procedure a tiny bit and wait to get slapped around again after getting away with basically violating the spirit of previous cases, in a new attempt to search any car they want to. Sandwiched between two legal-pot states, they have shit-eating grins that KS has a "zero tolerance" policy. Unfortunately for them, they fake-stopped and fake drug-alerted on a guy who had zero interest in any drugs. What's funny, is that I'd pulled over for them at a closed weigh station. They had no violation to pin on me. But as I rolled out, it showed me at 4180 pounds, 65 pounds over the car's GVWR, lol. All they had to do was wave me onto the scale to get a ticket on me! Maybe they just would have let me abandon 65 pounds of Gatorade with them. I do think they stopped me because you couldn't see through my back windows from one side to the other, due to having so much cargo in the car. But having a bunch of stuff in your car isn't probable cause for a stop, so they make up driving onto the shoulder line. The start of the trap had cop cars with super-bright lights on both sides of the road, I'm thinking to look through cars in profile. Pretty smart of them. Then chase cars and a dog car down the road to swoop onto the suspects. 66 year old retired engineer in a Prius loaded to the roof with camping and camera equipment. I wish I had video of it, the cops digging through my stuff and being disappointed at only finding more and more cameras, binoculars, camping equipment, dirty laundry, and Gatorade was virally funny in a way. They were pretty surprised to find a 50-liter freezer under my bed pillow, too. I kept driving until I was out of KS. Never driving through KS again, they're not doing their Chamber of Commerce any favors. I think that was a 950 mile day. No need to ever declare you're done driving for the day in a Prius! Glad to hear you made some good money on your loads. I hope they sorted out the loading/unloading pay for you. My advice is that it's good to make them get it right, it's never worth getting yourself upset over it. Stress kills. At some point, I learned to get myself through stressful situations without causing myself any of the physiological or psychological stress. Even during the maddening stop/search by the cops, I made my mind and body believe that everything was going to be OK, and that I was on a happy vacation. All of which happened to even be true. But if you have to lie to your body to keep it from exploding with stress, it's worth doing so.

It sure why your generator is so low. My carrier has a 6000w generator on it.

Safe travels 👍🏻 Congrats on your hometown's OKC Thunder great season

start looking for load

Hows the load board looking?

Maybe doing a short run to keep from dealing with them taking the trailer and having to get another one, would make sense the next time you have a trailer that's giving you no trouble. I know it's not how you run, but it could save you hassle.

Well, despite a bunch of things being a pain in the ass, it sounds like you'll be set up to move some loads. Hopefully the shop gives you a break, but if they don't, it would be a big bridge to burn over a few hundred bucks, if you're getting quick grandfathered access to them right where it's most convenient for you. And in May 2025, it will be nice to have your ID let you still get on a domestic flight if needed. They've extended that deadline so many times, that when it actually happens, a lot of people will be scrambling, or simply be unable to fly for a while when it doesn't get extended again. Try to be in the path of totality for the total solar eclipse on April 8th. For the best map of it, just Google 2024 eclipse map Jubier. It shows the path on a Google map, and you can interactively click anywhere on the map and it will give you the eclipse details for that location. I'm in NH, but will be based out of San Antonio for the eclipse, ready to drive wherever the weather and situation seems best. It will be the 6th one for me, the 4th for my kids, and the 1st for my grandkid.

Glad to see your videos

Is this that place 5 miles from the TA? If so i have been there once.

Lot's of fun to watch! Tough visuals with the wavy-ness but your commentary is great lol. I hope you post more!

Despite the wavy video, I liked this one. The Carrier service story, the complaining about bad drivers, the "Homeless guy taking a shit, welcome to Portland", and lots of other gems. It way classic Cyvster, meaning it was way funnier than you intended. Getting good loads in both directions was both lucky and well deserved. You're right about people being too competitive and self-centered when driving. And you're right about people (and governments) being too happy to choose sides when both sides are terrible. It allows our "adversaries" to worry us and our "allies" to use us, when we don't even need to be a dog in their fights.

Congrats on getting such a good load. It was a bit of a nail-biter to watch, not knowing whether it would disappear, or someone else would grab it first, each time the rate went up. You played it perfectly, and I think also got pretty lucky by refreshing multiple times at just the right time.

I failed mine because i told them to shove their cpap so far up their ass it would never come out

Lmao, so true about working from home people. Probably wasn't even home

I'm predicting Joplin area to the Dakotas with machinery, a deja vu run. Or stuff heading to AZ to fill up grocery warehouses, with millions of snowbirds arriving there soon.

I just took a dot medical and failed the cardiovascular test. My heartbeat was at 58bpm, and the minimum should be 60bpm and above. The chiropractor gave me a six month certificate and told me to visit a cardiologist to take care of the problem. I will shop around for a real doctor who does DOT tests for a second opinion. Prior, I have had issues with chiropractors and don't intend to deal with them anymore.

Good afternoon fellow driver, please be careful with replacing board on APU, an asshole “certified “ told me that my board needed to be replaced, I have a Thermoking, I went to a normal, non APU mechanic and it was just a red fuse inside the board under bunk. I also have spent way more money on my APU than in my truck., some how I found a way to fix the heater just by watching UA-cam videos. Good luck.

Great informative video , but you camera sucks

I think you've told that student project story about the exits and ramps before, hahaha. The next big interchange should be designed by a committee of 50 independent truckers, then let the "America's Got Talent" judges drive through both of them and see whether they both suck.

I hate dealing with insurance claims, other than being an expert at getting windshields replaced with no hassle. I've even just left a couple of cars unrepaired and no claim paid, if it's a car I plan to just drive until it dies, and it will pass inspection and run fine. But now that I'm mostly retired, I have time to deal with hassles, collect claims, and get repairs done to make myself whole. I like keeping things looking respectable, but on the other hand, you don't get extra credit from God, or a cash bonus, for junking a car with the body and paint looking factory new. It affects resale value a bit, but not by as much as you can pocket if you take a check and hammer stuff out yourself. I know an old UA-camr whose year old econocar got hammered by hail until it looked like a Titleist golf ball with 392 dimples or whatever the latest number is. He took a check for probably half what he'd paid for the car new, bought a "paintless dent repair kit" on Amazon for $35, and removed 10 or 20 dimples each nice day, until he thought the car looked good enough to sell as an almost-new car with low miles and slightly funky hail repairs, to pocket most of the insurance money. It's like the labor he did pulling out dimples was tax-free income that covered the car depreciation and maybe a bit more.

Why didn’t you get a lot of miles? Like idk you’re the one who told me where to drive. Anyways best of luck on the repairs. I wonder if the spot market is a little better now because of Yellow officially shutting down

My suggestion, be sure to let them know you weren't moving at the time of the impact

I feel sorry for you bro.. let's hope the clown that hit you really does have insurance, for your sake. So sad, for you! 😢

I feel sorry for you bro.. let's hope the clown that hit you really does have insurance, for your sake. So sad, for you! 😢 By the way, audio was fine.

The audio was fine with the truck running. Bummer getting hit. Here's where it would be good to know a body/paint shop that does good, cheap work. You'll have some tricky decisions about whether to make them pay to make it as good as the other side of the truck, or to do some pocketing of money like if they pay to replace the door but you just have it banged out 95% and painted. I'd be nervous letting them off the hook for a fixed amount before getting firm quotes to do the work properly. I'd hold out for an OEM tank installed by real pros, for starters.

I filled out an application yesterday for Walmart Bentonville

Rember to get lost wages ...

12k to fix ...sorry brother my opinion not your fault ......

What dc u pull out of? I was swifty swift for a while pulling from Johnstown NY

Nice to see! Interested to see how this account goes

As a suggestion, not being sarcastic...lose weight, it's affecting your health more than you realize...and definitely subjecting you to a major heart attack. Hope this is taken as "constructive criticism" just trying to save you a lot of problems that can arise sooner than you think.

Not really sure it's the democrats fault, it's just collective bargaining, and capitalism at work. I wouldn't worry about the yellow bankruptcy, someone will pick up the slack. A UPS strike probably won't last long, there just like Coke,Pepsi, tough job, people just can't fill those jobs easily. UPS workers will get most of what they want. It's just business.

I was saving this but it's calling me to hit the play button...

Umm, I think the government following the Railway Labor Act of 1926 wasn't a union-busting plot by Democrats. It was signed by President Coolidge, a Republican. Amendments were signed by FDR, who yes was Democrat. The one who got us out of the Great Depression and most of the way to winning WWII. Modern day union busting was revived by Reagan during the FAA controller strike, firing them and bringing in scabs. Balancing the rights of labor and management, while trying to prevent major damage to the economy and national security, is a complicated dance. Regarding a UPS strike, one complicating factor is that while Amazon/Bezos has managed to cut his dependence upon UPS, most small businesses have not. Combine that with the intentional crippling of USPS by the Trump administration (to discourage voting by mail) and small businesses relying upon USPS, UPS, and FedEx are going to be hurt much worse by a UPS strike than Amazon is. Truckers may see a mixed bag of higher rates, but third-party Amazon and eBay sellers who do their own shipping, plus a huge number of other online businesses, will get absolutely smashed by a UPS strike. So, ironically, the extremely well paid UPS drivers, if they strike, are just going to move Amazon to put even more containers/trailers on trains, and hire even more extremely poorly paid "contractors" in vans who don't even have time for a pee break. "PowerAde, the pee bottle preferred by 4 out of 5 Amazon delivery drivers." A strike would speed up the replacement of well-paid UPS drivers by lower-cost options, while punishing small businesses without access to those low-cost options. Realistically, UPS will always be busy, but their growth rate will be reduced for a long time after a strike shows them to be unreliable. Like you, I think they'll do what they can to avoid shooting themselves in the foot with a strike, but a strike is the biggest hammer a union holds, so it wouldn't be shocking if they do play that card for a week or two. Personally, I'd support them if they decided to strike for all of August, to make a point about the lack of AC in delivery trucks, which is ridiculous. From the union's perspective, it's treating them like sub-humans. From management's perspective, it's just plain stupid to pay someone 6 figures and then dehydrate them and piss them off all summer long.

Been to that collection site many times. Just a couple weeks ago. sometime when you're in Fort, Smith hit me up.
