That guy totally missed the fact tim was basically saying get the fuck off my fenders politely
gotta get shit done...thing's built for work lol
Yes, I seen that too…..he should have known that something like that is an (no step) zone. I’m sure those expensive boat trailers have “no step” stickers on the fenders
I couldn't believe that I was seein' that! I reflexively took a couple of swipes at the guy to knock him off heh, heh. If his job is loadin' and unloadin' trucks he should be very aware of where to step, and more importantly, where NOT to step. Maybe he's the kinda fella who ya just can't talk to when he's workin'.
Some guy in a company truck probably told him to stand anywhere so now he does.
As a Canadian Thank you for your visit. Enjoyed a front row seat from my couch. I’ve never seen the inside of a truck very interesting.
I knew soon they entered Canada they be speeding lol they figured out the speed quick at least
Hi Tim, I just watched your first trip to Canada and I see you came to Lakefield. That is my home town. I've been following you for a couple of years now. I'm a retired trucker and love seeing old trucks being restored. Keep up the good work and hope you enjoy coming to the north.
As a Canadian I was like a kid in a candy store trying to figure out what roads you were on, glad to see Toronto traffic gave you a warm welcome. keep her rubber side down shiny side up!
Yr dumb if you can't follow them from the bridge
Tim did not like that guy on his fenders🤣😂 we’re testing, a polite way of saying come on dude! Really!!
Tim another country it makes feel little nervous great watching you definitely thinking 🤔 gentry Sons Trucking is on the up and up great video thanks
Everytime I traveled to Canada, it was like having a mini vacation! Had fabulous experiences. 😅🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸
Glad your first trip in was good. I am a retired trucker 35 years. Your delivery was up in what is known as Cottage country.
It's so weird seeing you driving were I drive all the time. Welcome to Canada 🇨🇦
Where are you going ?...Ontario , LOL , it take's 2 days to drive thru Ontario Tim.
Unfortunately
@@jafo766 Yeah, Ontario is twice the size of Texas and bigger than many countries
@@FrankBullitt390 There is a great video of train running north/west out of the Soo , TRAIN 185, see a small portion of Northern Ontario , the lakes and leaning telephone poles go on forever.
@@jafo766 Done it, rode the via rail Canadian from Toronto to Vancouver, everyone needs to do it.
Welcome to the great white north boys. Friendly place , nobody owns a pew pew, but we have great whiskey , hunting and fishing. Always read your signs going down the road and you’ll be just fine.
I hope to see more of these trips into Canada mate
Love these sort of travel vlogs, good work thanks for taking us along :)
Good day boys, Just a heads up, in Ontario the speed limit signs say 100/kph but most trucks run at 105 and the cops wont usually touch you under 115. Highway 401 is the busiest highway in North America. Hope you enjoyed your visit.
Lots don't believe that theres a busier highway than in L.A.
@butwhytharum I figure most would think New York but LA would make sense too.
401 is hardly the busiest highway in north america bud, i guess you haven't been up and down the east coast of the u.s. or been to LA
@@jimburdin Do a quick Google search.
Just from my personal anecdotal experiences I wouldn't think 401 is the busiest in North America. Maybe through Toronto it's close but the 95 through NY and Washington is pretty bad too
Hi Tim it’s been along time since I have texted you but I have been watching all your video’s, great to see that you and the boys at HSTubes are working together you both are on the same channel, they have done a great job on getting that Pete looking good keep up the great work Cheers from Auss Be Safe Buddy
I got a little anxiety when I saw that guy standing on your fender 😅. You handled that better than me. Hauling boats seems like a pretty good gig.
welcome to Canada Tim the weather up here has been great for a while now. hope you enjoy it enough that you haul more up here.
Great to see you guys up here. Welcome!
Hi Tim. I work at Waltron Trailers in Ridgetown Ontario Canada. Been watching your videos for some time now. I remember building these trailers back in late 1998-1999 when i first started at Waltron. We build very nice custom boat trailers! (And many other custom trailers) Would be nice to meet you when you take a tour of the shop.
Good job Tim glad you enjoyed your trip to Canada
Glad to see u made it to canada and to ontairo wish i would of seen u on the 401. Welcome to the 401 traffic jamb everyday.
U got that right , CAN,NUK,S DRIVER ARE BAD , 401 WHOOP,BE
Busiest highway in North America.
That bridge is a beast 💪
Canada is beautiful and amazing regardless of Truedildo 😂
Hello
Welcome to our great country Tim, nice to see you come here finally .
That was awesome watching you drive past my home in Sarnia, Ontario!! I'd love to see more trips into Ontario!!
It was good to see you otr again Tim, too bad Braxton couldn't make this trip. Btw, I just got my new T-shirt (classic) and it's true to your word, great fit and comfortable. I'm already cruising the merch store for my next one!
like your videos my dad was a trucker before his wreck i'm watching you guys from alaska !! keep up the good work brother !!
I’ve been through there many times we used to go to Manitoulin island every year for a couple of weeks to go fishing and we would always take are ranger bass boat with us I miss going to Canada so ready to go back. I hope y’all enjoyed your trip!
I drive in canada and if he was stepping on my fenders like that. i sure would not be as nice as you. Plenty of other places to step.
I wish you'd haul more big boats. Thats how i found your channel.
It was good to see you in Canada tim wish i would of come and met you i live about a hour a way from lakefeild watch your channel all the time love it keep up the good work love watching brax i started the same way with my father and family
My wife and I ran auto parts from New England to Detroit, three round trips a week, crossing at Niagara and Sarnia. Wife loved the Blue Water Bridge...especially when they opened the second bridge. She didn't like waiting in traffic on top of the bridge as it bounced and swayed. Also glad when they opened the 403. That cut out having to take the 6 from Hamilton to Guelf to get to the 401. Great days, then. Thanks for the vid!
LOL TIM IT's Cheaper To Properly refurbish a clean new trailer then an old trailer you should honestly be trying refurbish every year pick one or 2 for every month you have in equipment 12 trailer 1 a one month 24truck and trailer well 2 a month, spot painting, blasting, inspect everything and no one can complain you always keep one truck and trailer ready for them to take for a month and premium everything once a month for a year go thru repaint and blend all the scratch's, nicks, dings, rust inhibitor, blast then spray inhibitor so it want rust ever again! Powder coat the wheels somebody got an old oven you can build the oven with that but new cost more! everyone complains about maintenance cost but if its kept up everyday its cheaper the longer they go like rust it grows and grows but when new it last years before needing work! Just maintain a New state and simple it will last forever!
Great content guys 😊. Thanks for sharing.
Truck sounds nice and smooth....soothing! Glad you enjoyed Canada.
The thing about boat season up in Canada and the Upper Midwest is when the ice melts is when the season starts much like for the Great Lakes steamer ships that go until the ice pack locks the lakes until about late March when the temps start to rise a bit and the time changes to longer days.
Pretty cool to watch, north Port Huron area is old family stomping grounds. You are crossing the newer bridge built, when you come back on the old bridge built 85 years ago it's pretty cool feeling the bouncing steel; when there are several semis crossing from Canada back into Port Huron.
Hello
Wait for 50 below and living inside a freezer for 8 months of the year! There is a reason that so many snow birds move south! I grew up a few hundred miles from Canada and remember bone chilling cold and 10 foot snow drifts !
I love your excitement coming to Canada. I live an hour east of your drop off location of Lakefield, in a little town named Madoc. This part of the province really is beautiful. Thanks for another great video.
A most enjoyable video guys. Thank you for posting...
12:10 you guys drove right by my work on the right hand side and home town that's so cool!!!!! Sorry about the traffic Safe travels enjoy your stay and come back for a vacation with the family. Cheers
ah up in my home province. ontario is huge and full of lakes! glad you enjoyed such a nice drive out to the kawarthas. the 400 series highways are bonkers though if you did not notice.(ps i love how you pronounced the names of places you sounded more like a local then from south of the border)
Best conversations i ever had was coming back and chatting with Canada Customs
Our roads are bad up here! Great video Tim!
Welcome to Canada! Lakefield is my hometown crazy watching videos of you and seeing you in my area.
Love seeing real footage in my backyard, regonizing familiar roads. I'm an hour from Buckhorn
Aaaa Tim welcome to Canada I live in Sarnia at the bridge crossing in joy
As someone who lives near the marina you dropped at I loved seeing you travel familiar roads!
Pretty neat to see a big UA-camr in our little community!
Hats off, most the time it's a easy cross, watching u run through my back yard was cool, I'm 20 mins from that crossing. Keep up the safe trucking, from meyer transportation
Glad ya had a good safe trip
You guys are doin' all the heavy lifting, but the local wildlife steals the show; welcome to Canada! 🤣🤣🤣
Man you boys lucked out on both crossings!!
I used to do that every 2-3days and NEVER hit it through as quick as you did 👍🏻
I never crossed in a truck, only in a car years ago when I was in my 20s and had a nice Camaro. I got searched in secondary every time lol
I applied on the website. Ide love to hear from you guys. Love the content.
Hi guys! I'm in Nova Scotia but please allow me to welcome you to Canada. I realize that you were here and gone so I hope you enjoyed your time here. If you ever deliver into where I am in Nova Scotia I'll certainly try to catch up with ya and treat ya to some Nova Scotia seafood. Your border crossing and the chit-chat between you fellas made me think about my first truckin' trip into the U.S. Of A. in 1996. We're not really that different from each other.
I was wantin' to smack that fella offa your fenders, I can't believe he did that! I used to haul cars and, at first, we used the high-mount trailers (using regular 5th wheel position but moved to the back of frame) so shiny fenders were a concern then. The stinger units have the 5th wheel behind the tractor and down low and we load onto the tractor too.
I had my own trucks and trailers, and other businesses as well, and I believe that some of the best business deductions are reinvesting into the business to make it safer/more efficient/more enjoyable. What you said about findin' a trained boat hauler is the same as car haulers, when ya meet one who is trained properly and even has experience ya try to sign 'em up.
I always get a kick outta folks comin' from the south when they are surprised by our weather heh, heh. When I was a kid, in the 1970s, it was NOT unusual to see cars with southern U.S. plates and snow skies on their roofs...in July! It has been a few decades since I saw that one, though, and please don't think that I'm hatin' on my neighbours. I poke fun and laugh at myself more than I do anyone else, I believe if we can't laugh at ourselves it's probably time for some reevaluating heh, heh.
Those rate cutters can be found anywhere somebody else is actually working and earning an appropriate living. The thing is, they're only around long enough to ruin rates for the next ten years because their ways are not sustainable.
Did you know that the 401 Corridor, which you partially traveled, is the busiest highway in North America? I was surprised when I learned that. I'm glad you had a successful venture here in the "Great White North" heh, heh. Keep 'em between the ditches with yer shiny sides up and keep on keepin' on, folks.
Oh yeah charged with assault I'm another country great idea
@@WillChandlerFLD120 I said that I wanted to smack the fella, not that Tim should. I think you must have misunderstood me.
Hi Tim another great video it was good to see Peterborough I live in Peterborough UK drive safe phil 😊
Hi Tim glad to see your trip to Canada was great for you I love living in Canada somethings are great somethings are not hope you come over again maybe I can see you and shake your hand and go for a coffee take care stay safe G.Whyte
You're all liberals Id cross only if I had to. Then gtfo .
Good ol’ sarnia boarder. Amazed you made it through without the guards power tripping
canada is easy! been there 100's of times go out west. its nice!
i like your black petercar with a detroit rare truck!
great video! ❤
You were in town. Didn't even stop by for a coffee. Next time bud. Next time
Welcome to Ontario Canada. Our cottage countries are very beautiful. Come back up any see more of our beautiful country. Doesn’t matter if it’s the mountains in the west, the prairies in the centre, Canadian Shield in Ontario, Quebec, Maritime provinces, Newfoundland and Labrador, or our Territories. All different, all unique. You had good luck crossing at Sarina/Port Huron. Safe journeys
I live 40 miles straight east of port Huron blue water bridge. We know our roads suck. Sometimes that bridge is backed up a couple miles. Glad you visited us. Lol
We used to send alot of our flatbeds to canada over ambassador bridge and into Saskatchewan. Detroit roads have always been a pain for our drivers and trucks. 2, we sent our reefers to California and our cattle trailers to texas and midwest. Come on back therr driver, be safe and god 🙌 🙌 🙌
Took several vacation trips to Canada and spent 3 months in British Columbia it was amazing and beautiful and met some really nice people..BC is the Florida of Canada. Milder climate compared to the other parts but more expensive to live. Hopefully you got some poutine while there😎🛠️🇺🇸🇨🇦🍁🚛
Tim,had a wonderful trip really had fun 😊
all of our semis and lowboys have that "d" sign
You crossed into where I’m from! So crazy would love to meet you next time!!
It's pretty up there a nice ride glad no trouble at the Broder
We used to go into Canada from Buffalo N. Y. and come back into U.S. in Detroit. A very nice and beautiful ride.
Welcome to Canada only a few minutes from where I live hopefully you come back soon
I believe I would ask the guy standing on my fenders, please don’t step on my chrome of any kind! Work fenders or not! Piss me off!
Welcome to my neck of the woods! Lots of beautiful lakes up here!
God Bless, From Canada. Lots of good ol boys here.
As a resident in the Detroit area, hopefully you enjoyed it. We know our roads suck lol.
And rhe natives are dangerous
I love Detroit. I have crossed the Ambassador Bridge or the tunnel hundreds of times. I'm a car guy and a fan of Motown music and Art Deco architecture, so it feels very comfortable to me. But yes, agreed, the roads suck. LOL.
If I'd known you were coming up here I would have shown the both of you boys some hospitality!👍
Pre trip and end trip are so important for the longevity of your truck and trailers , my 82 w-990 A 3408 18 spd , big aerodyn sleeper 290 wheel base super 40s on kw 8 bag suspension, powerful , smooth , beautiful, and still shining like a brand new truck with some help from Jakes chrome shop 😊, that dang 389 sure looks crisp and new Tim , super nice edition to y’all’s fleet 👍🏻
82 w990 ? Never heard of that one, just sayin.
@@bonebusterpnw7181 my apologies a w-900 A of course pal , last year for the A models
Love the videos keep it up
That was cool glad you made the video
Slogan “sh tube, we do shift better” lol
BEAUTIFUL RIG GREAT VIDEO !!
I like your new intro its good and simple
Got to cross in a bay just past Watertown ny easy in easy out
Toronto is always packed.
Welcome to canada Tim!
You went right passed my home in Kitchener. I wished I knew you were here. I’d have taken you for a nice steak dinner.
We have lots of boating here in Ontario. There is a place where we have 10000 lakes in one are!.
Have a safe tripe back home!
Tim I cannot Believe that man walking on your Chrome fenders he needs to stay off of them
Hey Welcome to friendly Canada. Always exciting to watch your Vlogs. Canada 🇨🇦
I'd rather cross Mexican border and fight the cartels than deal with (friendly Canadians )
At the border in Surrey BC, there's a stone arch that is inscribed with "children of a common mother". That border should always be that easy to cross.
Things have changed since the 80s and 90s. The border used to be really casual. I watched a Canadian woman walk out of her house and take her dog for a walk in Peace Arch Park on the US side of the border. In 1999. These days there are agents waiting to pounce in places where the border is easy to cross accidentally. In Derby Line VT you used to be able to enter one Canadian public building from both sides of the border. Now it's a huge issue if neighbors walk across the road to say hello to a friend they've known for decades. One of the things we gave up with the overreaction to 9/11.
@@cageordie There is a town in Maine where they have a library. Half of it is in the US and the other half in Canada.
Id rather cross the Mexican border and deal with the cartel than talk to greasy Canadian citizens
Love the way that hood looks from the cab
When you refit that trailer you ever thought of air so you can raise trailer to clear ground like you had when hauled that big boat and grounded on crest of road plus could incorporate a lifting axle for when running empty as they run safer than a less weight on double axles.
I hope the loves speedco's are better down south than they are in the Pacific Northwest. You can pretty much count on a 5-6-hour wait for anything on the i-84 corridor. They pretty much prioritize service calls over shop work
I live in Ontario, last year I drove across Quebec and I will never complain about bad roads here in ontario again.
I used to live outside of Detroit! You could lose your semi in some of those sinkholes! Don’t get me started on the potholes! I feel your pain! Now I live just outside of Knoxville!
Soon as you said how bad the roads were my first thought was... "Gotta be Michigan." Not ten seconds later I heard "Almost to Detroit." 😆
The worst roads I've ever been on and I do them everyday are in Quebec. I don't care which part of Quebec, the entire Province have the worst f*cking roads in North America.
Awesome content Tim. You know your business and I know that but if it was me I would not spend a ton of money on boat stuff right now. I am in South Florida and the dealers are packed with them, far fewer people are buying them due to inflation and high interest rates. There are always the rich and oversize stuff that are not as effected but I would expect the smaller ones to slow down pretty dramatically.
And now I know you will transport to Ontario! Awesome and love the channel..need anything in Ontario hit me up! We got you
The lake area you went through in Ontario near your drop-off point is part of the Trent-Severn Waterway, which connects Lake Ontario to Lake Huron via numerous inland lakes and rivers and incorporation several lift locks. It is 386km (240mi.) long and is used for recreational boating. The water is cold now, but in a few weeks you can swim in it through 'til Labor Day and some years later than that. Glad you liked one small piece of our Heaven.
Are serious, we saw how Canada hates truckers
Lol that oversize wasn't talking to u was he
That certainly is a beautiful part of this world. I briefly lived in Campbellford, ON, which is also on the Trent-Severn and they had a wonderful chocolate factory there. The whole town was as pretty as a postcard and smelled of chocolate...very special.
@@billcrawford9905 I can't believe that there are truckers who operate without one and then there are the ones who have one installed but run without using it. I know that they have saved me from more than one potential disaster and they used to be great for local directions and such too. ANNND ya get to talk real cool with yer echo turned way up, c'mon. Hahahaaa!
No shit Christopher Columbus 😂
good stuff hope you have many many more years of canada to go BIG .T.
Oh wow, Lakefield is a beautiful area. My in-laws have a cottage up that way. Welcome to Ontario
Wow up in the Kwartha's! My backyard! Glad you loved visiting my country! #Welcome :)
I spent a lot of my youth in the Kawarthas, Lakefield in particular. He missed some of my favorite spots by a few miles. That's one of the frustrating things about driving a truck. You pass places and don't have time to stop and enjoy. When the truck breaks down and you do have time, you're always in a motel surrounded by cars, trucks, and noise.
welcome to my country & my province Tim.........I am retired trucker about an hour south west of Toronto, Ontario
Sweet video thank you
