There's nothing like a Caterpillar engine 👍👍
Kurt, if you bought cheese cake and only purchase ONE PIECE, God Bless You, Man, you've got more willpower than I do!
Kurt as a singer, you make an awesome truck driver 😂
Nice Frankie Valli there. It has been very windy this Spring and the storm express keeps coming. If you want cheesecake, you get cheesecake. Thanks for the nice ride. It adjusted my mood for the day. Safe travels, and God bless.
That's the goal most times. To try to be relaxing and for the most part happy.
Uber mom. Kurt says youmread the comments. I wanted to let you know you and Uber Dad raised a fine young man in Kurt. His demeanor and outlook and approach to life is inspiring. Have a great summer. You all feel like family even though we will likely never meet in person.
If there was ever a law abiding conscientious Truck driver it’s Kurt Schmidt. Above the law, absolutely not. Points out needless ridiculous laws, all day long. Keep trucking buddy, you got this.
You should see out in ca. more traffic and yet they keep taking roadway away from us making it all use. Just come in and eliminate lanes all together making it for bicycles and pedestrians who pay no road use tax like vehicles do. They want us afoot or on busses ! Over 100 degrees where I live , and unsafe on busses. Commie fools. No common sense. Not what I voted for. No freedom.
How do you know that? What do you base it on? He strikes me as a left lane camper who doesn't care who or what he slows down, and can't be bothered to be courteous.
You know eht (it)
He's a professional with a touch.
It may seem like that in this video but if you watch his previous videos, you will also notice most trucks pass him but in this video, he explains why trucks were slower this time around. Obviously, you haven't watched much of Kurt's video, as you wouldn't have thought he wasn't courteous if you did.
Just during the construction, living here is not easy. Kurt, your my hero.
Kurt you are a good man, husband,father,son and friend to your people.
Congrats Kurt on your "EPIC'' load & have made it to 53,000 Subscribers!!!
Thxs 4 sharing All the Vids Mr Schmidt & Fam😊!!!!😊😊!!!
You rock Kurt! Love your shows and look forward to seeing them every day. Thank you for sharing your truckin with us.
Today, my wife and I took the Tri Glide for a nice ride. We left home with the temp about 65 with a little wind and low humidity. We got back home about 4:30. What a nice ride. Central South Carolina USA
I love the jet sound on your truck❤
Loving your videos. I really like the look and sound of your truck. You make truck driving look easy. Thats a sign of a true professional.
I loaded 53 flat beds for 26 years with 60' wood I-beams from eugene oregon. the number one thing was not enough places to pull over when tired. I saw these disappear in 80s. my hat is off to all of you who keep americans from starvation. I deeply appreciate your job in this life. thank you.
Really appreciate the video. Stay safe out there.
I may not agree with all your opinions, but I do enjoy thoroughly your videos
I’m glad you take breaks, it keeps you safe when your tired. Thanks for sharing trucking with us 😊
Love that steering wheel spinner,cool
Damnnnn. That's a sharp rig.
You make us smile Mr S.
Love the humour and the vids over here in Stratford upon Avon.
Kurt, you`re the first outlaw dork I ever met, lol. Nice video.👍
In the UK no trucks allowed in what you call the express lane. All trucks are governed to 56mph. Love the channel.
Nice video Kurt 💯
agree 1000% of your rant about road construction & stupid laws
NO Opie, no lava lamp, same old road back home, OH MY>
You go Kurt!
Love Kurt arguing with himself over clean trucks and cheese cake. 😂
Hello Kurt, you should come to Toronto, we have the worst roads in North America, not counting the many many road closures.
Drive safe out there and see you next time hope your family is doing well
Thanks for explaining why trucks use the left lane or park on ramps. I understand now, so I won't be salty the next time I see it.
A other great video once again.
Take pride in your ride, Kurt. Especially when it's your own.
I agree with that I got a ticket for third lane , Indiana has a lot of bad road laws, be safe keep our adventure going, love ❤️ your video’s
I AGREE
MANY "STUPID RULES"
I also park on the ON ramp not the off ramp, to me vehicles and trucks go slower, don't like to sleep in truckstops anymore
Never ever drive on LEFT lane if it says NO TRUCKS, and it is true, the have abused the No Truck Parking rules
Is great that you share your opinion and clear things for others, dont do as I do, do as I say. Breaking rules can be expensive, and I am cheap!!
You sounded happy, listening to you singing on your way home, was also, EPIC 🥰
Drive Safe.!!!
I drive for Nussbaum we have trucks with mirror eye instead of mirrors. I'm also not a big fan of the I365 going around Indy. Awesome channel. MOM he's not the only driver parked on the ramps.
ADM chocolate in Wisconsin and M&M/Mars in Waco, TX were a couple of my favorites for the way they smelled.
i am in a suburb of Atlanta (Marietta) ... different world ha ha ...my son lives in Omaha ... we visit and gamble at the casinios in Counsel Bluff....enjoy your videos
GREAT VIDEO KURT MAN YOU ARE A EXCELLENT TRUCK DRIVER !! BE SAFE & BE BLESSED !! 🐾🐾❤️🐾🐾🙏
If you do not have a no truck lane . If there are three lanes and three trucks, they will be side-by-side doing 61 mph. Still love your channel
From what I have read is that the express lane is temporary , while they widen and replace bridges on 465 , That said, It has been on the books for maybe 25 - 30 years that semi's can not drive in the left lane except to pass another vehicle and that applies to all interstates Indiana . Back when I was hauling a lot of grain to Indy , it was that way and that has been a long time ago .
As far as parking on the on/off ramps , you could be opening yourself up to legal action if you park there and a car slam's into your ass end , that is one of the main reasons they put up the NO Park sign , for safety of blind drivers I guess they can't see your marker lights - Keep on trucking ! btw , I live 15 miles south of G-Field .
Yeah that’s what I was thinking. Get this menace to society off the road. Dude you like radiate goodness and light. I think the tooth fairy uses your head like a homing beacon your such a nice guy. Anywhere she sees it she knows she’s safe. You can bend the rules a little. Keep up the great work.
Lol! Got it;) Nice shirt by the way:)
Welcome to Indiana!
THANKS
Hey Schmidt, just a thought, but maybe try a stainless steel mount instead of aluminum for the light.
It's been a very windy couple of years
love to hear your stories of what you have to contend with out in the crazy world of laws. Your are a very conscientious driver who is doing a heck of a job keeping this great country fed. Wishing you the very best and safe travels
Dang kurt! You got cheese cake, im jealous. Now you gotta go home and hit the electric bike a block or two! 😂 i juat started a new diet and its horrid lol
New to the channel…I’ll weigh in on the traffic infractions…I wouldn’t drive in the express lane or left lane if prohibited primarily because if I get pulled over the delay would be longer than if I had used the non express lane, besides, the cops have other fish to fry. Also, it’s dangerous to be stopped on the highway, and there are road ragers out there who might cause an unsafe situation for myself, and other drivers by inflicting their own brand of stupidity justice on me for breaking the law…now for parking on the ramp, I would do that all day or night if I’m tired, and I’m confident I could talk my way out of a ticket. I’d put my safety triangles behind the truck, and maybe even light a flare for added safety. Just my 2 cents. Stay safe, calm and always drive defensively.
Just had a thought, not sure if there’s a liability issue if you get in an accident while in an illegal lane for trucks where the other driver is at fault, are you liable because if you weren’t in the illegal lane, the accident never would’ve happened? This also includes illegal parking on the ramp, if someone hits you, are you liable? A lot of these laws for truckers are safety issues, so if an accident happens it might not be worth the hassle to infract the traffic laws…an accident is an accident, you’re not going to get in an on purpose, and some people look to cash in on an accident if they see an opportunity. You might check with your insurance company, or a lawyer regarding this
Hey kirk how does opie feel about your statemint Thanks for sharing
That's Indiana for you..... I moved away 4 years ago and never looked back.
Kurt, I am from Indiana and the express lane you are referring to is for construction purposes. I see Semi's parked on off and on ramps all the time. When your time is up for driving you need to stop.
Iowa 80 truck stop been there a few times because I used to drive from Minnesota to rock island iLL to see my best friend Richard jett
Mr Kurt the only thing i got to say about the chesse cake is i sure hope you got yourself 2 slices. Roll easy roll safe 🇺🇲
Hey 👋 Kurt 👍✌️❤️💪🏻☮️
I didn't think that. You doing what you have to do to be safe.
Cheesecake? "...I'll have the lot"..."
(Epic beard, btw.)
there is noway i,m walking out of that store with 0ne cake.... will power Kurt you go man ;]
You are when they are $3-5 a slice, at least I am. It is good though.
When we ignore stupid laws. It's not disrespect. It's intelligence. The English generally ignore stupid laws. I'm pleased to observe that many inhabitants of the land of the free. Seem to as well. Was wicked to hear you so happy at the beginning of the VLOG. Mick London
Hi Kurt and Opie
I used to get stress for the way my pickup looked. It was beat up and many colors but it was a scrap truck. I hauled scrap metal with it. The money was great. I had a deal with one of the scrap yards here that when they had loads that were too small for their trucks, they called me. I made good money until the prices got too crazy.
First question does the Warden know about the cheesecake? Second question I bet their is a German that's going to be a very happy puppy. Stay safe
I saw Estes trucking company in that parking lot company that pick up from is in Pennsylvania areato
Nice
The place in Georgia you took the Ice cream loads was Cartersville Ga. Your welcome.
53 K hell yeah 👍🏻 !🦅🗽🇺🇸
Kurt there is nothing wrong with the way first class looks. The more spit an shine on a truck. The less time you have with the family.
I agree with you on the too many stupid laws! And so many people want to call people out on their law breaking, like they are saints or something. Guarantee they break laws too. Like speeding. That's a law everyone breaks at some point. Question do you do all your editing from your smart phone? Or do you do it from a computer?
Both.
Ya know what they say eh Kurt?? The good thing about a radio is you can change the station or shut it off. 😂
I was just joking sir ! Honestly 😅
The clip you showed in construction on the NE side of 465, you weren’t in the express lane. The express lane is about a mile north of where you were at the time and has concrete walls on both sides and isn’t wide enough for a semi. It skips about 4 exits and it’s a temporary lane during the 3+ year construction project.
Niblets ??
I still believe no truck in a certain lane is unconstitutional. We pay taxes for all lanes on the Interstate.
I think the colour of that truck was based on a lemon cheesecake both nice but a bit sickly when you get too much
I don't own my own truck but, you best believe I'm gonna take the extra time to keep it clean and shiny... and I haul heavy construction equipment. I'm on dirt a lot.
What’s that blue box behind your cb? Is it an ezpass for tolls?
Theres laws for everything these days Kurt. So glad im retired. By the way, it just aint the same without the german. Hope hes back soon. Keep on truckin!
I don’t understand the ramp parking laws either, and no one blames you for running the hammer lane. But the cheese cake??? Eh, it could be something worse than that… stay safe and hello to the family 😊🦮🐕🦺🐕🦺
I was surprised to see in the video that when you enter a truckstop you grab the nasty door handle where everybody else grabs it. I do the downlow one finger deal
Plenty of Interstate construction to put in express ez-pass lanes so they use your tax money to build a road you have to pay to drive on and then they can say we didn’t raise your taxes
That no parking sign would look good in your garage 👹😂
Where did you get your spinner? I want one just like it
But with the paper log you can plan your stops where you actually want too. I understand what you are saying about passing other trucks. Your truck is heavy enough with your load at this particular load and the trucks you are passing are probably much lighter in weight. About parking on a on or off ramp. Just set up a couple of cones or triangles and you won't have a problem. Trust me it works. If you get checked well you had a problem that couldn't wait until you arrived at a travel center or rest area. Safe traveling on the two lanes or the big roads!!!
Schmidt you might rethink driving in those toll no-truck landes. The fine for trucks driving in restricted no truck lanes are big. In Maryland, a truck driver was jailed. States are desparate for $ and creating no truck express lanes has become a major money maker. On the east and west coasts special toll lanes are popping up everywhere. There likely to begin to move west.
We're not here to judge ya Kurt, we here to ride along with ya, you pull over, we pull over with ya and so on.
Just pull over and leave the people that judge on the side of the road. They can catch a ride with a holier than tho person.
Drive on man.
I see you use I74 through Peoria instead of the bypass route. Is going through on I74 quicker or shorter than using the bypass route around the south side of the city?
Schmidt, what did you think of the roundabouts?
I always see the orange w9 around joplin area. Shes a beaute for sure
When is Indy not under construction?
Delicious Niblets. ✌
I am born and raised in Indiana the no left lane for trucks has been around for a long time,as for no parking on ramps that may be a new one Iv'e been retired for a while so not sure about that.
Did you buy enough cheesecake for everyone? Lol.
Damn def
any chance for more live stream on road ?:)
Sparky’s is my shut down spot. For some reason I sleep like a baby at that spot.
that new truck can be called first class un like your old second class. spend the money and paint it its not going to get any cheaper. lol keep up the great videos
You can sleep on the side of the interstate anytime you want, buddy. Love listening to that Cat and the turbo spool up. Got to remember that first class may cough up a fur ball from time to time but it won't be a bad one. Stay safe dude.
The shoulder on interstate highways is for emergencies, it’s not a parking lot for tired travellers. imagining driving 60+ mph and having a tire blow out, which happens often to all vehicles or some other mechanical problem and you need to get pulled over and off the highway and out of the way.
but you can’t pull off the highway safely because there’s vehicles parked there while it’s inhabitants have a sleep. There’s rest areas and service stations along the way for that. Emergencies are the exception, like medical or mechanical emergencies.
Yeah those fancy trucks are cool and all but the insane amount of care and cleaning to keep them looking like that would drive me nuts, at least if you use it for hauling and not just shows.
Do you think you could drive your truck fast off the over pass and land on the roof of one of those buildings?
The express lane thing in Indy... Is just for the construction
