It must always be a risk when hitching up someone else's trailer with all the usual unknown damage, kerbed tyres and rims, crappy brakes, leaking air lines. I felt your understandable concern - definitely not an enjoyable trip this time - and get this - you would be accountable if anything went wonky wrong in terms of an accident
Hi Kurt. Love the videos. My husband is also a truck driver, but now is local concrete truck driver. I do notice that you don't wear a seat belt when driving? Please be safe and consider wearing it. 😊 stay safe and keep the videos coming. Much love from Canada 🇨🇦
Its only illegal if you get caught!!! LOL At that time of night you'd have to be something really wrong to get pulled over short of a scale still being open. Me personally, I would of gone for ride over legal as long as not too heavy on the drives
Sometimes when I didn't have lights come on,I would lightly spread the prongs in the 7 way where the pig tail goes so they would make contact with the pigtail and work don't spread em a lot because they will break and snap off,then you re screwed until the 7 way is replaced. I know you know that but a lot of viewers don't.
Had summer for 5 days already, my grass is dead, had too use a heater this morning because it was darn cold hehe it should be 25 celcius already in the Netherlands.

Hello Kurt and Opie, I watch and enjoy your channel every day. I live in Omaha, Neb, and I'm always on the lookout for you and Opie on the highway, but haven't been fortunate enough to see you.☹️. You have a beautiful family and Uber dad is awesome!😉 You and Opie keep on trucking and stay safe. 🙂
Hey Kurt, I was watching a video and just waiting for you to take off running. You said you had to run over here to the office and I watched intently but I never saw you running. Did you change your mind?
Ok I admit I look forward to the videos everyday now. Really enjoy and appreciate them. Your final scene today with Opie walking away cracked me up. Thanks again for letting us tag along with you.
Kurt you were talking in the last video about the pinion seal leaking. I replaced one in my buddys 379 I always replace the locknut because the neoprene seems to soften and you don't want that yoke coming loose also had to replace 2 ujoints it wasn't that bad on the farm in his machine shed and shop. I definitely think you gotta bad airdrier. Stay Safe happy truckin🇺🇸👍
I hauled pork for 7 years back in the 90s ! 60,000 lbs loads on tri-axle reefers ! comming back with frozen doe, pies, cakes ! ! sometimes pork fat in totes and for some reason there was always some totes leaking ! trailer wash every trip ! lol ! 🥴😎
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 So, if there's a broken wire you have to climb a ladder and trace it and fix it? Do they get checked by someone at the yard to prevent that from happening at least?
Hey Kurt & Opie! Send the rain to south central Iowa, down by Chariton please? We haven’t had measurable rain since the 2nd Tuesday of May 😢. The grass is dormant already. I hope you safe travels and a great weekend!
OK I seen that Harley logo... in the beginning yeah I think I started watching your channel on the Mnt Rushmore/ Sturgis rides I'm a driver I get it By the way
I'm gonna say it again..check the fan clutch. The reason the dryer can keep spitting because of the fan clutch is that the clutch is fed directly off the air governor. And since its not on an air resevoir, any little air leak will drop air pressure quickly and signal compressor to pump, then the dryer spits when pressure is back up, and then the cycle starts again. The worse the leak, the faster it will cycle. Great video as always Kurt! Good luck!..and keep on truckin! 👍👍💯🇺🇸
It's always good to see Opie and his bald friend...
Stay well...
I remember that feeling well
Like riding a horse! An iron horse!
I imagine the newer tractors ride a little nicer
Good old seaboard, i go there frequently

Wow they wash your trailer out?...nice
after you drop the a trailer do you set the parking brake still and if you hit kids its 200 bucks
Lol sometimes
Nice easy, but bumpy night
I'm a black man. I love your channel because it's trucking based. But mani
Good thing that was a short trip. Have a great rest of the week and weekend. Stay safe, and God bless.
Yes I agree Heather
Good thing you got that new air dryer with all that humidity! . . . Oh wait, what?! lol

Hot and humid in NE Texas too.Supposed to be 96 to 98 late next week.

What do you do if you have to connect to a trailer that had no working lights?
Fix em. If you can. Its actually not to complex of a system.

Did you come down 75 from s Sioux city? That road is brutal from there to fremont...
Except that US-75 does not go to Fremont
Oops I mean 77
No
When I was a younger guy US-75 was in Iowa. US-73E ran from Winnebago to Tekamah, US-73W ran from Winnebago to Oakland, then east to Tekamah.

Thanks for being around, we have a couple bike trips in the future hopefully

👍👍💯🇺🇸
It's the dryer itself that has the leak
👍
Opie always makes me smile. Where’s your big bike trip to this year I haven’t heard you talk about it unless I missed it?
Hopefully it's out east
💙💙
looks like you had a better day then i did. I had a trail tire blow out on me today. waited over 2 hours for my shop to show up, Stay safe!
Ouch
Can someone please explain. How does the cooler stay on the whole time? Or doesn't it? I'm confused. I assume it runs on electric not gas.
Cooler? The Trailer or my refrigerator. Ones runs on diesel the other is electric
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 I'm pretty sure he is talking about the refer unit.diesel,my friend diesel.
is it just the spitter valve on the bottom of the drier?
Yup. But it's brand new, im not replacing parts on a brand new part.
They’re teenagers they don’t care about you no more only thing they care about that sure the bank and give them the money
