thanks to all you drivers and thanks for keeping america strong and supplied im not a driver but want to let you know that there are some of us that appreciate your doing what most could not do god bless drivers
Thanks a lot Kenneth. So nice to see others appreciate others efforts, no matter what line of work we're in, being a part of that wheel. Just helping make the world go 'round. Peace.
Thanks for bringing back this memory. My dad and an older brother taught me how to drive truck in 1975 after I graduated highschool. Things were different back then. It's definitely not the same. Nobody respects truck drivers like they used to.
You are very welcome I haven't done much with trucking videos as of late today's society has changed but your comment has made me want to do one so be watching
I was on the way to Baton Rouge , Louisiana when the radio station first played this song ! I had been up since early that morning , and I really wasn't in any fit condition to be wrestling 75 feet of truck down the interstate . When that song started, I was like an adrenaline shot ! I was wide awake , and felt ready to go another 12 hours ! 😀
Driving for 44 years, driving in the early 80's and 90's was actually fun, but, between the population explosion and the untrained foreigners and, so called school trained rookies, and DOT, and cell phone users, it's not fun anymore, it's a challenge
Yep I cut my teeth on my father's international cabover steering wheel when my father took me with him hauling cattle.and found out young I was hooked.and started driving in 1981 on my own on the farm driving grain trucks and farm equipment went into the navy came home and drove from them till now. trucking has gone to hell all that time.from good back in the eighties and gone to hell right up to 2024 and don't think it's going to get any better.
@@RonaldHill-wo3yb actually Ronald, I drove only one cabover in my time, but in those days, carolers were bad ass, and every now and then, you'll see one out there....RESPECT for the old days
6 millon miles and still rollin love this song cause it's truth. Some people wouldn't understand. But take of your woman. She's in it for the long haul too.
@@tylerlittlefield9201 agreed if I get my dream job I'll be a prisoner of tow truck ing doesn't bug though cause it's always been my dream job I already got a job of from a friend I made in high school who owns valu auto emgancy towing service
A HUGE "Thank You" to all of my brothers and sisters out on the road. This country could not run with out you. I was out there for 10 years as a solo female. Saw a lot of good and bad. Caught a lot of flak from "super truckers" but also had a lot of great interactions with other drivers. Made a lot of friends....and told a lot of "trucker stories"! I miss all of y'all! Stay safe and Keep Rollin"!!! from Lady Dreamer
We don't know what your retirement is Mr Gary? But we know it's not enough. On behalf of the citizens who know your worth. We will always be grateful. Sir.
Old school Trucking up all night to get the freight delivered on time running 3 log books dodging the scales souped-up engines trucks that are running down the road at 90 miles an hour just cruising
I have been a prisoner of the highway for over 14 1/2 years now, I am asphalt cowboy, and I will keep on living in that left lane with my Peterbilt 379 Until my body completely gives out. I have no regrets of what I’ve done and where I have been, I wouldn’t trade it for nothing
40 years, over 4 1/2 million miles. I can't see me ever being a suit or factory worker, I have been free for too long. I may retire someday, but I'll probably die in a truck.
All these newer trucks are all choked up with exhaust filters and can't breath. Automatics picking their gears. 1 mph race in the hammer lane. Not very safe out there any more. MEMORIES.
My dad started driving after coming home from Vietnam taught me how to drive a big rig when I was 14. Once you get that diesel fuel in your veins you don't get rid of it. Running the roads of this beautiful country isn't a job it's a lifestyle most of this newer generation of drivers take no pride in driving it's just a job to them. My dad retired in 2015 after 40 years on the road. I came off the road last year due to health issues but still think about every day.
43yrs on the road.Enjoyed every mile.Retired Aug 26 2023.Be safe and courteous Fellow drivers.God bless each one.👍
Don't ya miss it yet ? Come on back out
A very positive note from a great man and a driver 👍

Once a trucker, always a trucker. God I miss the road. :-( But music like this brings back the memories!
I drove for 20 years and I live with this song in my head everyday to me all other trunking songs pale in comparison,,,,, thanks Ronnie
