    The small truck stops you and Schmidt stay at will only be around if you guys will also start buying fuel from them, I understand saving money but it’s the same reason I don’t shop big brand stores, so please consider spending a few cents more to keep the little guys going

    Josh, you amuse me! The irony of your comment that "Texas Does This Right! Highways in the sky." is really funny considering the fact that you were driving on I-10 (also known as the Katy Freeway). The Katy Freeway is par with the Ontario 407 for the competition of widest highway in North America by number of lanes. Its funny because The Katy freeway is known for being an absolute parking lot of traffic congestion. Clearly, they haven't learned that adding another lane does not fix traffic!
    I just thought that was funny! Keep on truckin!

  • @JanesDough855
    @JanesDough855 Рік тому +7

    You're pretty lucky with your loads, going in and out of the US. You also have such a great attitude. So many newbie drivers could learn a lot from you. Love hearing about Theo. I can't believe how much he's grown!

  • @tomadelsberger6101
    @tomadelsberger6101 11 місяців тому +1

    I always used a tape measure If load is 45k and 45 ft load It's one k per foot put it two ft closer to the back gives you 2k less on drives and on the trailer no need to be slide just measure it is way easier

    That 99 Toll Road is a lifesaver for those of us in Houston. I live on the southwest side in a town called Sugar Land and 99 let's us get up north without dealing with most of the notorious Houston traffic.

    I have learned the mom and pop truck stops. Many are small diners. I have breakfast to thank them and head out. When the chain law is on, I never stop. 150 trucks in a 50 spot truck stop, there will always be several hoods lost.

  • @scottymartin3242
    @scottymartin3242 Рік тому

    Just make sure you help keep those mom and pops open. Without your fuel business thats a major part of their business. I don't disagree just remember what keeps them open.

    I went to Cali a couple times with a friend 15 yrs ago, and your right the small truck stops were less crowded. Tho we stayed at a brand name truckstop, forget the name, but the parking spots were arranged at the angle. Super easy to get in and out.

  • @Bugoutnow589
    @Bugoutnow589 Рік тому +4

    First turn off the GPS, or at least mute the dam thing. Second if you’re looking for a second load why you driving as fast as you can in the middle of the night through the two largest cities that could potentially get you that load. I never understood why you’re always so worried about getting home asap. You should be a company driver with that attitude. Drivers can’t cry about missing their kids or wife when you can easily make the same money working local or finding a skilled trade job. You’re driving over the road because that’s what you want to do.

    In late December 1998, my hubs and I were traveling to Florida on I-10, as we came into Houston, there had to be half a million snow geese in the marshes on each side of the road. It was spectacular as they took to the air. Thought about Canada last night as we got 10” of snow, and there’s more to come.

    Night time is the best time to go through the big citys.
    Definitely mandatory.
    Sometimes you'll have that when a car goes flying by you then later you see them in the ditch.
    I saw on the interwebs that when a baby is standing but not walking yet if you put a ball in each of his hands he'll start walking.

    Almost missed you on return to Canada 🇨🇦, about 25 years ago, I almost bought a house in FLATONIA, Texas in Downtown Flatonia which is about a mile South of I-10 on US-90A.
    Unless you drove through Downtown Houston, you may have used Loop I-610 to get around the business district to go to Dallas & Oklahoma.
    Your time in Texas all too brief, hope you got a taste of Texas cuisine, such as a breakfast burrito 🌯 when in Laredo, PALERIDERTV on UA-cam used to LOVE the breakfast burrito from mobile vendors at the truck terminal in Laredo.
    Have a SAFE trip home,

    Hey Josh, hope you’re feeling better. I get sick when i go from CA, AZ and TX back up North from 40-50 degree F temperature changes.
    Just a suggestion, when you record at night especially outside of truck, carrry a flashlight or use Camera Flash Flashlight on your cellphone that most of us forget we have. That way we can see things like the load in last clip the fifth wheel placement in this clip etc. lol stay safe brother get to feeling better.

    You don't have the Cat Scale app on your phone Josh? This way if got the app you don't have too push button, wait for someone too weigh ya an then the system emails the scale ticket too your email. Also, when have the app it'll show ya what Old Blue's gross weight is on phone screen. This way ya don't have too find place too park an run inside too get physical ticket.
