Congrats!!! Can't wait for the viewing of Betsy!!!! She is young on a 2019 model. Great decision, be your own boss. Praying for Mike... Enjoyed the ride in your Jeep, it felt like a was on your lap and you were having a hard time stirring the thing. Boy that was a ride & a half right there. Peace!
Congratulations on getting your own truck !!! Can't wait to see her !!! Sounds like you're still doing a good turn for your former employer lets hope they reciprocate appropriately !!! Happy New Year Mike !!!
One thing I like about you Mike, Your not going to take it from the man and be manipulated into being taken advantage of but you do it in a professional manner. I am also inspired by your determination to live by your own rules. And seeing your driving skills in action. Thanks for the videos and have a good break. All the best for the new year.
Congrats on the truck purchase. Don't forget to paint your set of chains as you suggested in your other video. You'll have to do a video tour of your new ride.
Oh I was craving SNOW and this ride made my day, thanks. Congratulations on the purchase of your truck. Hope your Christmas was nice and have a blessed, safe and prosperous New Year❤️❤️❤️
Super to hear about the glider Mike! Can tell in your voice you are happy about the process too. I enjoy your content and this new adventure you are on is going to be fun to follow for us !
Great news, Mike. Smart thinking to be back in the saddle longer term on your terms. "God Bless The Child Whose Got His Own". Your Jeep is hauling ass.
Congrats on your new truck, I feel that things are turning around for you because; you probably have a good Heart and Spirit and that's a cause for good things to come in. Blessed ✌️
Oh, love seeing the snow again. Congratulations on getting your own truck - 2024 should be interesting for sure. Happy New Year and hope you had a wonderful Christmas.
This is Wonderful!!! Your voice sounds amazing today, alot of Happness in it. Great Move. Excited about seeing your own truck. Stay Safe an keep on trucking.
Congratulations this Christmas buying yourself a gift to enable to stand on your own feet working for yourself. Keep on chucking and hope you own more trucks and start your own trucking company. MERRY CHRISTMAS & A VERY NEW YEAR to you and family
"Yeah say Hi to your boss!" Mike some people just have a knack for stepping all over there own air hose. Congratulations on getting your OWN truck Mike, you have driven down a long road to get to where your at..................Now the Adventure really begins, prayers up for you and Happy New Year!
Don't know much about the trucking industry,but it seems to me with as many subscribers as you have,not only riding shotgun but learning as 'we' go, your employer would utilize that fact to their profit. Also you're not an OK driver,you are the best I've seen,even though you've scared the dickens out of me a few times. Be safe Mike,thanks.
Greetings Mr Pierce AKA MMM and Complements of the Season to ya. Thank you for calling out where it is you were driving from and to as I am then able to Google map where you are and view the route. It gives me a bigger picture and a better understanding of the content as I find myself in the city on the Southern most tip of the African continent. Go see what's there.
I had 2 Gliders from a place in Tennessee . I had 188 inch custom sleepers put on them from Indiana customs . They pulled my horse trailers like they weren’t even there .
I'm glad you bought your own truck. Loved watching you when you drove for quality but ten when you started driving the oil/gas trick, wasn't interesting. Happy you'll be your own boss. Congratulations on the new truck. Can't wait to watch them in the new year.
I'm enjoying watching your videos. Could you please, frequently, state where you are? I assume Colorado, but, not sure. Date would also be helpful. I live vicariously through your video. I appreciate that you frequently state the temperature.
I look at that snow. Even as a ride along sitting on my couch. I'll be glad when we get out of the snow and icy road. Thought watching it on live tv i could sit back and enjoy the ride. I'm working the brake and chewing my nails. So that didnt work. Can't stand in front of caves either.
i love petes but 205000 for a 2019 glider is way over priced. you can buy nice 2020 ex fleet trucks for 60000. true they arent long nose petes but will do the job.
@@DaveSorenson Paid 25k for a new one in 2006, just needs a paint job. Best vehicle I’ve ever had. Toyota stopped making them in 2014 for U.S. and Canada. Off topic: we have a wild squirrel with your last name but different spelling: Soarenson.
Seems like you have run into a series of difficult encounters with bosses. When you are in business for yourself, most people think they are your boss. You also get to deal with maintenance, supplies, liability, business development and debt load.
As a Colorado guy that spent a lifetime driving cars & trucks thousands of miles to work everywhere all over the west in blizzards you should loose traction all the time. It is the only way to tell how slick the road is. If you are afraid of loosing traction in a snowstorm that is what they make motel six for. They have weekly and monthly rates.
From. Canada drove. 18. wheeler and oil patch in mountain’s and. flat Land. (for year’s ) you. we’re following too close too that plow truck from. what I could see, I never drive that , close you could. be an. accident Looking for a place too happen , drive safe ,or you will be not around. to. tell the tale , and the older highway trucks. we’re better than. the new truck’s, /. hope you. make it. back safe on all wheel’s/ Bill.

There is Something Coming Down the Oil Pipeline!! Yep and it sure as ain't oil, snake oil maybe but not oil oil. What a waste of lost time, as all you did was rabbit on about getting a new truck (at way too expensive a price) and whether or not you have work after Xmas? Nothing to do with anything IN or down the pipeline at all really. Gave you a thumbs up for the long winded explanation about nothing in particular.

Merry Christmas, Mike ! God bless you and your family. A great new year for you with your own truck !
Thank goodness we have our snow plows working on these road. No need to pressure them while they’re doing their job.
You snagged a truck with a Kitty👏. That beast will be a big plus in pulling heavy haul up and down those mountains
Good for you Mike. A great start to 2024.

I asked a neighbor trucker if he watched MM, and he said "No," I only watch the bad ones.
CGs on the Pete! Glad to hear you went the Glider route! What transmission? Speeds? Can't wait to see it!
I'm riding shotgun, and I'm SCARED TO DEATH!😮
I thought it was just me
Sounds like a good start to 2024. Wishing you the best. Looking for more videos. Happy New Year.
Thanks Mountain Mike for taking us along. Good luck with the new truck. Where do the trailers come from? Do you lease them?
Congrats! Wishing you nothing but the best!!!
Congrats Mike, i want to see your new beast and all the best for this new adventure i am certain you will do good. Regards from Portugal

Starting the New Year with a new venture and attitude, good luck.
I had 2 Gliders from a place in Tennessee . I had 188 inch custom sleepers put on them from Indiana customs . They pulled my horse trailers like they weren’t even there .
How exciting! Good for you! Yes, everything happens for a reason.
IM EXCITED FOR YOU.... WHAT MARVELOUS, & EXCITING ADVENTURES AWAITS US....RIDING SHOT GUN.....😮😅

Nice, running an XJ. Good luck going forward!
Hope all’s goes well mike. 👍👍👍👍👍
Oh man I would pay to ride with you in such nice cozy weather mike!
suddenly got this thought🤣
The 4k video looks amazing!!!
I'm glad you bought your own truck. Loved watching you when you drove for quality but ten when you started driving the oil/gas trick, wasn't interesting. Happy you'll be your own boss. Congratulations on the new truck. Can't wait to watch them in the new year.
Would not want to drive this route. Seen way too many bad accidents in good weather conditions.
I'm enjoying watching your videos. Could you please, frequently, state where you are? I assume Colorado, but, not sure. Date would also be helpful. I live vicariously through your video. I appreciate that you frequently state the temperature.

Merry Christmas and Happy 2024, Mountain Man Mike!
Excellent 🤩⭐️😎
Good luck on your new adventure. I'm sure it will be a great success.

mike it is little more paperwork but my advice to you is get your own authority and do what ever you want you will truly be your own boss
Congratulations!!!!
I hope the people you haul 4 appreciate you!
OMG! You must have nerves of steel! 🤪
No Mike,not the Universe but God has a plan for you, He will Never stir you wrong!
Things are looking up for you, yay universe!

Can't wait to see the new truck.
I am a Canasian Driver.. All Same!
i love petes but 205000 for a 2019 glider is way over priced. you can buy nice 2020 ex fleet trucks for 60000. true they arent long nose petes but will do the job.
Got a Jeep and an FJ. FJ every time!
I’ve noticed fj cruisers are quite pricy.

Yea but they ride like shit!
FJ = Fake Jeep
I think two years on the tires will be the maximum.
i don't like when people bitch about time off
I Always gave plenty of notice of my time off. And figured I was looking for a job when I found this one and took the time off…
Hola desde Madrid -España.

If you lost traction and went straight on a curve while recording a video, would you post it?

@@sofakingrad3530 Haha, yeah I test the brakes when it's snowing. I meant an actual going straight on a curve.

Hello Mike ❤
Cool title 😁
Can’t wait…

Then you can truck your happy ass to Washington state and come and do some salmon fishing and crabbing with me finally!!
💪💪💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🏆🙏
Following the plow truck can be great. But it is slow, hard on your paint, and windshield.
I prefer to be the leader of the plow truck.
There is Something Coming Down the Oil Pipeline!!
Yep and it sure as ain't oil, snake oil maybe but not oil oil.
What a waste of lost time, as all you did was rabbit on about getting a new truck (at way too expensive a price) and whether or not you have work after Xmas?
Nothing to do with anything IN or down the pipeline at all really.
Gave you a thumbs up for the long winded explanation about nothing in particular.
