I liked this so much, I watched it twice! And it answered the question from my husband: where would you move? Montana! Texas is out after the deep freeze and power grid problems this week!
This is one of my absolute favorite "Interstate Kyle" videos. I am from Washington State myself, but I have family in Montana and I just love the nature there and these great songs just make me love Montana even more. :-) Thank you, Kyle! Greetings from Washington State!
just be advised that there are stretches and curves especially that are not conducive to safe driving at 80mph. the highway crowning, banking, and leveling were made during the 65mph days and several places from the Helena cutoff to Missoula will sling you into the adjacent lane without warning. add to that sometimes stiff cross winds will exacerbate the problem. its not a stretch that you can just kick back and relax. it will bite when you least expect it.
Thanks for the heads up on the winds...I'll be towing a 24ft travel trailer west to east here in a week and a half. I'll make sure the anti-sway is turned up a little bit.
Fantastic Drive Kyle! I'm always surprised that Montana didn't become a more populous state in the history of the US. The geography and land looks fantastic, I don't understand why more Americans didn't want to settle there in the early years and build some big cities there too.
Thanks Phil! Believe it or not, 100 years ago, Montana had 500,000 people which is a lot for that time and this area of the US and was ranked 39th in population. Mining was huge and as seen from my previous videos, Helena was a very rich place to be during the Montana Gold Rush. As the mining industry fell, so did the need to live here, but it is seeing a resurgence as of late, feel free to google Billings and read about the city on wikipedia and learn how its one of the fastest growing cities in the USA!
No major waterways to make international trade more possible. If you look at major cities nowadays they are almost always close to a coast and have a port of some kind. I read somewhere that half of the worlds population lives within 2 or 3 hours of a coast line

As someone who used to live in Germany it's mind blowing to me that you're supposed to do 80 mph on a road like this. you could easily do 160 on the straight parts and it'd be fine. no speed limit should be the way to go here
they tried that in 99 the highway patrol threw a hissy fit about no speed limit would lead to more hiway fatalities it was fun while it lasted i got pulled over outside of conrad for going 101.7 all i got was a prudent ticket .
you are able to drive that way because those roads are maintained much better there. in Montana maintenance is a four letter word. here in Montana majority of roads get "chip sealed", which is a glorified "putting makeup on a pig". not fixing the underlieing problems
the scenery is beautiful in this video, and it's well edited. I've driven most of I-90 in Montana, but not the bit west of US-12. Montana is a beautiful state, particularly in the spring when everything is green.
I am in love with big flat lands like the great planes or the pampa. Just found by coincidence a youtube channel like yours. Can't say why, but I feel so free and relax on the open plane. Big blue sky, big clouds and horizon as far as the eye can see. My dream holiday would be to just drive from Texas to Edmonton (Canada) through all the states on the way (or from buenos Aires to the end of Argentina in the south). How are the people in this states? Are the open to foreigners? I am from europe.
Hello Sir, i am from Germany, i visit 2015 Montana (Billings )for Working by Farmer to Sugarbeet Harvest with German Sixrowharester and yellowstone. I drove from Red Lodge Beartooth Highway to Cook City and Yellowstone. My Film from this is Burnt by Housefire 2017. When ever you Drive this way and you Film this for me I will be happy
Ah yes, Blackfoot's "Highway Song"! One of my favorite cruising songs of all time! I can't help but push 100 mph whenever it gets to the long jamming at the end!
Brilliant video bringing back great memories of driving on this iconic highway in September 2019 which I so much want to repeat especially after seeing the superb scenery pictured in your great film.
Love your videos, reminds me of my Montana road trip and how I need to get back there. What camera set up do you use? Getting a new truck and want a camera system for road trips long recordings like this as well as protection in case of an accident! Keep the videos coming. Also great music selection
Winter driving is bad here. Summer can be bad if people aren't watching what they are doing. But it's all the snow and ice that make this a bad drive from October-April
I've never heard this song before but it's stellar. I'll be making this drive from Portland to Ohio with a 24ft camper in tow here in a week and a half. Thanks for giving me some insight on what to expect!
Just drove I-90. The speed scared the hell out of me. White knuckled it all the way across Montana and back. Beautiful country! Look forward to returning.
Thank you for this video. My Los Angeles born and raised husband has never been to Montana. I was born and raised in Western Washington State and grew up out on the coast. We now live in Olympia and love it here. I have been in Montana on vacations with family. I keep trying to describe Montana for my husband; it's greener than much of Idaho but also has that "big sky" feature, although there are mountains in some parts of that state.
We make the trip between Butte and Missoula quite frequently.....it's a beautiful ride in the spring and summer months, but can be a total nightmare in the winter. Very nice vid!
I’ve taken that exit off I-90 onto US 93 up to Flathead Lake, Kalispell, Whitefish and cutover onto US 2 into Glacier National Park. Really a spectacular drive and highly recommended.
Granite county has the same population as the number of people that live in my neighborhood. I'm just sitting here thinking about that for a good second.
@@BigSkyCurmudgeon we all mean civilized.......cars on this section of interstate are far apart so no going in and out but speeding oh yeah especially if you are from canada they think montana has no speed limit and do 100+ and seldom get caught. but is funny when they do.😂
@@thomasfletcher4765 Well, If you are willing to accept me... I'm still young so maybe I'd stay hahah. I love guns, food, American music, big expanses of countryside and I also studied American history/culture extensively. I think I'd feel right at home.
2:49 - BMW Z3 zips by you
3:09 - Police officer zips by you
3:43 - GOT EM!!!
Yeah not a whole lotta cops around in Montana, but they don't fool around
I love these empty roads in Montana .. I want to take a ride on this road with my Megane R26.R....Montana, beautiful state, nice racing raods 🙂✌️
@@MichaelKinzer more than you think
Oh, too bad, Z3! The popo's got ya!
(Cue TPIR losing horns)
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Very very nostalgic journey n the Rocky mountains are sooo lovely ❤❤❤
Great video. Great song 🎵 👌
I liked this so much, I watched it twice! And it answered the question from my husband: where would you move? Montana! Texas is out after the deep freeze and power grid problems this week!
Montana is by far the best state to drive through. I can’t wait to go back.
Very nice work Kyle, enjoyed the ride in Big Sky country
Vaction is over. Now I want to go back home on a real vaction
I just drove this highway
2 weeks ago on a
cross- country trip. It was an
amazing experience. 🌄⛰️🐂
Very nice choice of songs ! Love Montana 👍

Spent a couple summers around Drummond. My brother still lives there. I miss the songs on these old videos Kyle
I wish interstate 90 can reach all the way down south to California,Arizona,New Mexico and Texas. Unfortunately I-90 is located up north
Ah yes, Blackfoot's "Highway Song"! One of my favorite cruising songs of all time! I can't help but push 100 mph whenever it gets to the long jamming at the end!
I am amazed at the tastes for music that people have when they drive on the interstate. I use 70s disco
Brilliant video bringing back great memories of driving on this iconic highway in September 2019 which I so much want to repeat especially after seeing the superb scenery pictured in your great film.
I think the police pulled over that car (possibly a BMW Z3) that passed you earlier in the fast lane! Instant justice!
At 3:44 you will see them both on the shoulder 😁
did you noticed before that you never passed a cop
Shame that BMW got caught
if it was a canadian they still believe montana has no speed limit
Damn it's really 7 hours of hills and open land
Great music and scenery...it really goes together perfectly !!
Love your videos, reminds me of my Montana road trip and how I need to get back there. What camera set up do you use? Getting a new truck and want a camera system for road trips long recordings like this as well as protection in case of an accident! Keep the videos coming. Also great music selection
wait till walmart and target start building
From Seattle
Pacific NorthWest!
Is it dangerous to drive I 90 from Idaho to Montana? What makes it so? Planning on driving from CA to Kalispell.
Winter driving is bad here. Summer can be bad if people aren't watching what they are doing. But it's all the snow and ice that make this a bad drive from October-April
what part of cali......when i was younger i took a bicycle ride from ft bragg cali to kalispell i thnk it was 82
You guys saw the cop get the speeder? If I lived in Montana first thing I would buy is a radar detector!
At 3:44
I've never heard this song before but it's stellar.
I'll be making this drive from Portland to Ohio with a 24ft camper in tow here in a week and a half. Thanks for giving me some insight on what to expect!
Driving a uhaul from Boston to Seattle on I-90 with my son. Awesome video.
Nice, but I always thought Montana would look more rocky majestic.
Just drove I-90. The speed scared the hell out of me. White knuckled it all the way across Montana and back. Beautiful country! Look forward to returning.
alot of memories i lived in east missoula /missoula/kalispell /helena /coram/hungry horse/shelby
Nice rugged scenery out there. Thanks for the ride...
Thanks for the support, sadly this is the last from Montana but I will be back someday!

There’s a county called hope county it’s from far cry 5 you should go there and to Missoula
We make the trip between Butte and Missoula quite frequently.....it's a beautiful ride in the spring and summer months, but can be a total nightmare in the winter. Very nice vid!
Did this drive twice in Sept Helena to Missoula and back was a beautiful drive..great songs ! 💪👏
Nice vid man! The right music too! Montana is a big state and I believe you're not to far from The Canadian border, did you pay a visit there?
fun fact montana has some of the fastest patrol cars in the nation most of them have modified interceptor engines and powertrain
Hwy 12 , been over that pass . Very nice drive
I'll just ride with you Mr Kyle
Just curious. How is your camera mounted to take these videos?
Love driving around Montana.
I’ve taken that exit off I-90 onto US 93 up to Flathead Lake, Kalispell, Whitefish and cutover onto US 2 into Glacier National Park. Really a spectacular drive and highly recommended.
ikr so so beautiful
Im about to be making this drive soon omw to PA. Is it dangerous to drive these roads in November? How snowy/icey do they get?
there is no definitive answer to that weather in montana is unpredictable but i say it will be coooooold
Granite county has the same population as the number of people that live in my neighborhood. I'm just sitting here thinking about that for a good second.
Same here, I'm in Houston Texas, where u at. I'm going to glacier national park in Montana in exactly 1 month
What a great song
Wow very beautyful wow very good Kyle 💓💓💓💓 Mon tana beautyful
Thank you!
Can you go 90 on this road and not get pulled over?
no
@@luci-fer250 But isn't the rule usually 10 over the speed limit is OK? I'm genuinely curious by the way, no malice intended.
@@hsun7997 85 you are fine 😁 86 you get a fine 😭
@@luci-fer250 it depends on how you are driving that 85. weaving in and out will get you pinched. staying in the fast lane too.
