- Truck Driving Adventures | Trucking Through Yellowstone
Hey guys! FX has been keeping me extremely busy, as expected. This week, I went to Billings, MT, twice, and to La Grande, OR. I hope everyone is enjoying the amazing scenery I'm getting to explore! One of my main goals is to show people that truck driving is not just being a "truck driver", but also being an adventurer, explorer, traveler, wanderer, and so much more. Enjoy this trip through Yellowstone National Park, and I'll see you guys in the next one!

I think i just met you in Idaho! Windy af out here today!
Thank you so much for what you and your friends and family are doing feeding the truckers!
@@ShelbyHBTM hello I am from India and I have question that is can I drive truck in us by international license ?? Ans this question pls ans because I want work as truck driver in us so pls help me and one more question is how can I come to us and what are the process so pls tell me proply pls....🙏🙏🙏🙏
You work very hard for a living,I hope that people appreciate what you do because I do🙏
@@rxpujari_ka28 I am living in Washington state. In my state, you have to be a permanent resident, aka green card holder or US citizen to be eligible for truck driver. And you have to have a comercial driver license issued by US federal agency. So your international driving license is only good for driving nomal cars in the US for a period of short time, let alone big trucks.
Enjoy see n you running down the roads i use to travel keep safe
That night day transition was neat.
Sure was. Anyone know what software does that and what the name of the transition is?
Shit yeah i thought the same. Great editing and the drone footage are cool
I was thinking the same things. These videos get me excited for starting my CDL classes next week
You are literally keeping us alive by staying out there, thank you.
When it's a bad day I just look out the window and remember why the job is worth it, most people will never get to see all the beautiful nature that's out there.
So true.
Let's give props and recognition to the gentleman that's recording. He does an awesome job and is one of the main reasons I watch. Great job sir!
To a anther female driver keep going girl! We are the warriors on the road! Have a good one be safe driver!
♥️ you too! Roll on
I've been driving for over 10yrs, 3rd gen driver. I grew up running the back roads. That's the only way to truly see this great nation as it was and is becoming. Get off the open road and see the sights of our proud and historical sites. We live in a beautiful nation that has such a beautiful landscape. Thank you so very much for sharing it with us!
Amen brother 😁👍🏻😎. OTR for life 😎
Totally agree, as a 40 year old Englishman who made many trips to the US at one time in life, I can’t buy the current depiction of this great country that the media are portraying, I choose to think of the vast size,amazing views and people, I wouldn’t mind trucking long distance over there. Great video, shows that if you have a passion for what you are doing, it is more than just a “job”, you will spend most of your days at work so if you can love it, makes all the difference
And this is why I have started watching your blogs, because you take me places.
Welcome to Billings!! Next time you swing through the city, let me know a day in advance and I'll give you a shout out on Planet 106.7 between 3pm and 7pm
Do you always travel alone? Do you feel safe?
@@roydolfan1 she travels with her 150 pound german shephard. and a cameraman.
As my old dispatcher used to tell me all the time “that’s trucking”. She treated me well and I ran my ass off for her. I never waited on a reload. And for a flatbed driver that money!!
But in all seriousness sweetie please stay safe out there. God bless all 18 wheelers and roll on.
Thank you I'm a driver as well
With everything going on, it is the people like you who drive a truck are the true heroes! I have the utmost respect for your industry. I just want to say thank you! Without you this country would be shut down.
Best drive of the day...that dark 3am into morning transition. Love it.
All though we never hear or see BKM it's got to be nice to have someone else along for the ride he's as good at his job as you are at yours another excellent video.

SOMEONE ELSE WHO GETS THE PROBLEM WITH DRY SANDWICHES
Exactly what I was thinking haha!
Europe here, but have you ever tried to solve that problem with some vegetables? Some slices of cucumber, peppers, salad or some slices of tomato? Mayo is not the only way to get a sandwich less dry. :) ...and to be even more European, buying real bread (not the plastic covered, white wonderbread that lasts forever) will make your sandwiches less dry - and add some fiber to your diet. I know I live in a part of the world where buying fresh bread is the norm, but the wonderbread Americans eat, scares me. Bread is supposed to get moldy after a while, it is nature s way of telling you not to eat it.
@@EspenX I'm from Texas and hate Wonder Bread. I usually put mayo and tomatoes on my sandwiches to make them less dry.
@@ninjasquirrel9744
BLT............
Fry or boil some eggs beforehand. Cucumber, egg, butter, some ham with rye bread. Rye bread better to keep off from being hungry and it's not dry with egg and cucumber. And as EspenX said, some salad will make it even better :)
Grizzly Bear @ 8:40 mark. Very cool!
When I was a trainer, I could not stress enough the need for proper route planning. I always had to remind my trainees that they were going to be paid by "Airplane Miles" and not the actual miles driven. So, miles save was money and time in their pockets.
Bless u Shelby , I’ve been driving for 18 yrs, and what u do 11 drive, 10 sleep, 11 drive, life is passing by, girl slow down
I have a plan 😁 it’s not forever
@@ShelbyHBTM Shelby - Your reply just lowered my anxiety a lot. Glad this is just part of the plan, and not an endless job.
@@ShelbyHBTM are you trying to save up money? same, your videos kind of have me really excited to get my cdl but i definitely have a plan!
So I think your awesome I drove truck for 40 years been all over the U.S and I think it's great how you show that women can do it just as good as a guy ,so God bless you and Safe travels
Your traveling since fourty years. Than I think that you experienced unfortunately not only good things... Roll on and enjoy..Greetings from germany... Dennis
I am 67 I had a cdl and when I git married he made me give it up , Gave up the wrong one !
Through you I can still enjoy trucking Thank you . stay safe LOve the scenery
She’s kinda goofy and cute at the same time. Love the way she talks
Dakota didn't have much to say this episode 😂
Not this time 😅 she was doing her own thing
@@ShelbyHBTM that is true i was thinking she could drive while you sleep haha
@@ShelbyHBTM she got tired of doing all the talking. Time for mama to speak and Dakota to chill.
Rumor has it, Her contract needs renewed by her agent. ☺️
@@robertstoler7209 😂😂 love your comment .
I've often thought that being a long haul trucker would be the best of jobs and the worst of jobs. It would be the best when the weather's nice and the worst when the weather is bad. But, thanks for keeping on truckin through the good and the bad and keep America rollin.
SHELBY, YOUR COMPANY AND YOU ARE AWESOME !
Shelby, I don't think it matters what you do or talk about. It is you people are interested in. You have a wonderful personality. I watch your vids because you brighten up my horrible pain filled existance. Thank you for sharing your life and experiences. God bless and stay safe out there.
My husband and I team, we love that route. Last year we pulled over for a 30 minute and jumped in the river. It was cold but was so worth the spontaneity.
Hubby and I team drive too. Would love to do that!
Cool
I'm trying to convince my husband that we should team drive in our retirement. I'm open to any advice team trucker couples have regarding how to get started or anything related to driving truck with your spouse.
@@stephaniefoster2899 do you already have your cdl? I recommend a school, not attached to a trucking company. That's what my husband and I did. After school that meant we had no contracts and could go to any company we wanted. My husband trained for 3 months and then I joined him as a passenger for 6 months. We evaluated how we felt, if it was a good fit and then I went to school. School took 1 month and it was so fun. Then I trained with the company for 3 months and then joined my husband where we super soloed for 1 month then drove team. Teaming is so fun, but also hard. You really have to make time for each other and sacrifice time out of your sleep if you want to maintain healthy relationship. Taking time between drives is also a choice, but I don't recommend it if you're out to make some money. My husband and I drove 10hrs a day, or close to, EACH. But what's great about running hard is you have more money in the bank and can vacation anywhere really.
OMG that bear was so cool! And it seems like he speaks Dakota's language in the end:D
Well I've got me a job and I am loving over the road for my first 2 days of driving. It's been very amazing and fun to drive for sure. I hope I get to see you on the road in my career at some point cause you are an inspiration honestly. Thank you for being positive all the time and helping us other new drivers with advice and everything. We all appreciate it 100%
I have great respect for people like Shelby who can appreciate the simple things in life like what nature can provide. She seems to not need or desire "glitz" and appears to be a wholesome young lady with a GREAT work ethic.Thanks to ALL the drivers for their long days and hard work because everything I touch was on a truck at one time. God bless the "Mayo Queen" and keep-a-rollin'.
That bear footage was pretty cool! I’ve never seen a beat in the wild before! I’m running from Washington state to Pennsylvania tomorrow so I’ll be running through the same area! Can’t wait! 🙂
I really enjoyed the snow lunch, the drone footage, and the 'nature' walking, thanks Shelby - keep the great videos coming.
I come so close so many times hanging it up and stop driving but when you are a trucker it’s so hard to just stop I love watching your videos I love what you do keep it up trucker
I hear you. I used to drive back in the day. I ended up being in the navy and later airforce. Now that im out of the forces, im thinking about the next step, and trucking has always stayed with me. The good, the bad, the ugly. This girl really put a different light on trucker life. I swear I feel like im watching someone on a RV trip cross country, rather then a trucker. Im glad she’s enjoying her job. I guess in the end, thats all that matters. Drive safe!
I was so excited to see the Bison and then I saw the one that’s at the back of the line of them. He or she is lame on the left rear leg. My heart goes out to him or her and I hope it heals!! Yep, I’m one of “those” people that notices stuff like that. I’m such an animal lover that it really does break my heart. 😢 Poor baby.
I think you're a huge inspiration to young women trying to get into your field! I started operating heavy equipment as a 19 year old girl and having another woman to look up to back then would have been awesome. Keep it up and stay safe out there lady 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Wow thank you ☺️ so kind of you to say. I hope I do it justice. I’m always learning too. Always a student, but I share what I can 🙃
What did you operate?
@@ShelbyHBTM That's a great mindset to have! The best drivers and operators are the ones that never get complaisant! Love the content you and your cameraman are creating 😊
@@timothykissinger4883These days I operate a 938K CAT loader daily, but I also run dozer and skid steer occasionally 😊
Friend: "What have you been doing to pass the time during all this?"
Me: "Well, I got on UA-cam and watched a truck driver make a sandwich in her truck."
😂
Happiness By The Mile What was the meat and cheese substitutes? Are you allowed to say? After 5 plus years still trying to find a tasty sandwich meat/cheese combo that's vegan and lactose free. BTW, we use the same mayo., it is great.
At least she used a lot of mayonnaise yummmmm
Keep making more content! I know people would love this channel! 🙏
The scenery is outstanding!!!!
I can certainly think of worse ways to spend a 12 hour shift at work. Glad you take the time to enjoy where you are and where you are headed.
I love the videos. As a kid, even still today I always wanted to be a truck driver. (I’m a chef)
I just love to drive and see the country and would love to do what you do. Thank you for sharing your life and letting us experience you’re journeys and adventures.
My husband is a truck driver who wants to be a chef
Why not take the chance?
YOLO. You can always go back if its not what you thought it'd be like.
I'm going for it.
But first I gotta make me a sandwich...might not be able to eat it...But a girl can try!
Your pre trip cab routine resembles a pilot in a cockpit prepping for a flight. Easy to understand your taking US roads, you probably see as much country in a week as most people see in a lifetime, easy to see the reasons for the lifestyle.
Thank you for your service, Shelby, especially during these challenging times: stay safe! Namaste!! 👍🙏
Namaste 🥰🙏🏻
I love taking U.S. Routes for the same reason! They're such hidden gems. I also secretly Iove cruising thru small towns and getting smiles from the locals. They love lady truckers out there 😂😉 #KeepTrucking Girl and stay safe! Your channel is A1👌🏽!
Meanwhile I'm here between 4 walls, waiting for my employer to call me back to be inside some big walls, I have alway wanted to be a truck driver because I like to travel, with family and other priorities at the moment I couldn't probably be able to deal with the trucking life, but I would love to have and live the experience of trucking.
Your channel and content is awesome.
Cheers.
23 minutes of wholesome goodness. Thank you
Nice your hair looks beautiful !
Last Bison had a sore leg. Poor fella. Thanks for the great perspective Shelby. You are such a peaceful spirit. Keep safe :)
Great video, You are awesome Shelbi and BKM!! You guys are fun to watch!!!
Je suis routier en France depuis 20 ans .c est un plaisir de te regarder t épanouir dans ton travail avec ton chien . Tu degages de la gentillesse et la joie de vivre Mme
Thanks for being essential, and engaged!
I’ve thought about being a trucker for years, but I learned many years ago to not live to work. Work is just something we have to do to make money to support whatever lifestyle we have. Being on the road all the time and not having true free time when not driving is what turned me off to pursuing truck driving as a career. I give mad respect to those like you that don’t mind the lifestyle and keep the freight moving!! Love watching your videos, be safe! And I love Dakota 🐶
I love all your vids, and what I love most is the dog and her comments. Cracks me up the way you edit her in. Stay safe!!
It makes sense why you chose the more interesting routes. Keeps you sane and happy by the mile. 👍
Agree with M miss Dakotas input. It is always cool. She is so tired from being the star of the other video driving. Be safe both of you!
Absolutely Gorgeous! Miss seeing the country. I used to do flatbed OTR.
Easy work driving in that Western Star, best truck on the road needs a good driver like you
I liked that truck also when I got to drive one. But I had to admit the 2019 Freightliners were freakin nice too.
Wwaayy better than the older models by far. Nicer looking inside and out and bigger too.
Love the music you add to your videos. Keep your head up, You are doing nothing short of a miracle for those you have never met. You are doing great things!
Good video, You look happy being on the road, just an advice get steps for your dog, German shepherds are known for bad hips and knees and jumping in and out of the truck doesn’t help it’s going to do some damage, the steps cost about 400 bucks they fold out, definitely cheaper than a knee surgery, it’s something to keep in mind. Be safe out there
Can you do a video showing your daily diet and how to eat healthy on the road. For example your meal planning/prep etc...
I will 🙂
Happiness By The Mile thanks
Oh no... that one bison was limping... :( he's not gonna outrun a predator
Mother nature at work. Thats not fast food for the wolves.
Mac Townsend it’s the circle of life
Should have caught your comment earlier. Didn't scroll far enough.I think you are right.
I saw that too... poor guy/gal...
The drone caught a bear even ! Spectacular.
Nothing better than mountains and trees. And trees and trees and trees.
Stay safe out there ! And enjoy.
OK first of all I absolutely love your videos in their entirety. But your cameraman is absolutely incredible with the shots that he is able to pull off. Thank you for everything that you do in explaining the trucking field. Continue to be amazing and showing that not all of us Are bad people.
Oh by the way thanks for the ride.Stay safe out there.
The bison in the back was limping ☹️.
I want to tell you that this video is one of the best. Your work is not easy and your face as well as your truck know it ... but I think that everything is rewarded when as a woman you make the sacred food and share it even with nature by enjoying in harmony even the air you breathe. Take good care of yourselves and continue to allow us to accompany you on your travels ...
😘🥰🐶🚛
Hey .... thanks to you and all the other truckers for keeping things moving...especially with everything going on. From a general contractor who is in Southern Ca.
Hey Shelby you guys stay safe out there, God bless you🙏🙏🙏
Good Afternoon Shelby, Absolutely my favorite. I cant wait to load up my fifth wheel and take a trip to Yellowstone. As always your videos are amazing. Keep up the great work, and above all Be Safe out there.
Always looking forward to your new videos. Please keep on trucking and keep on filimg.
i love the way you did the camera work with changing the scenery and time of day was awesome and America has some of the most beautiful country side and being able to sit out and eat your lunch is such a privilege for you
Thank you for the vlog it had some really beautiful scenery.
Another great video.The man with the camera is great.We love Yellowstone,been there many times. Stay safe out there.
I know this was 7 months ago, but before I became disabled. I used to leave the house around 7am n got home at night around 515pm-600pm so that’s about 10-11 hours. Then I’d have dinner/tv/computer time. Depending on your commute to/from work it’s fairly close to a truckers 11hr driving time. Except you’d spend your after work time in the truck everyone else at home.
I’d personally would prefer a truck n be able to see the country. If I can ever go back to work I’d become a OTR Trucker. But god bless the women/men in the trucks. They are the unsung hero’s along with farmers/ranchers to our great nation!
Just found your videos and I have to say that it is refreshing to your point of view in the world of trucking. Thank you for letting us ride along and for all you do to make trucking better.
Let’s get her to 1mil subscribers by the end of this pandemic
What? While there is a virus out there most of the stories we are told about are complete BS.
@@RogerWittekind which ones?
Cool video Shelby especially with the Bear in it. Stay safe
Awesome scenery and camera work..You are amazing,Shebly...You've learned the lesson of life early..To appreciate the journey and not just the destination..You have put class back in truck driving..Thank you for the video..Have a blessed day..
Ok I regress on all my past comments this one felt more like trucking life. The stresses schedules and trying to find time to relax. Great video
Thank you for making videos
Yes thanks for sharing your adventures .
Wow your trucks an automatic you must like that more room for a little home right on keepa those wheels turning peace love n light sis n family be safe ❤3
Thank you wendy for your videos. Here from New York City. I'll be seeing lots of your videos. Thank you for what you do. Truckers are very important to this country. I always love seeing 18 wheeler on the road. Especially at night with their Christmas lights on so beautiful at night. God bless and be safe. Love your dog.
Hey neighbor ! Iam Robert Toomey and I grew up in the south too.
I am enjoying watching your channel this morning on my tv mounted in my tractor .
Good health and happiness
Robert Toomey
While your making your sandwiches Dakota had the look of look at me I am a star . You do have some amazing scenery on this job .
french toast bread usually is Texas Toast bread ....
Haha everyone is correcting me to that so I must really not know my bread 😄😂 thank you I will get it right next time!
@@ShelbyHBTM
"Texas toast is a toasted bread with butter, and often garlic, that is often made from a type of packaged bread that has been sliced at double the average thickness of most sliced breads. ... Texas toast can also be used when making toasted sandwiches."
Never downplay the mundane. Those are things that keep us alive. Thanks for the great scenery from Yellowstone! Great sandwiches! Hope you start getting more than 5 hours of sleep a night soon. Take care of yourself.
Beautiful USA out there, so much to see. I get the whole water thing, very peaceful and relaxing. Thanks Shelby, you guys BE SAFE!
Awesome videography 😃, loved the scenery, seeing the bison was cool, catch some zzzzz,s💤
Awesome job shelby.💯
Truck drivers are not alone.They have everyone.
I sorely miss driving cross country and enjoying it all. Thanks for the views!
Ive been watching your videos and I enjoy them, I think your a great women, your smart, beautiful, hardworking,and funny women like you are hard to find, your a rockstar I really hope you succeed , be careful in your travels
Beautiful scenery,you are pretty awesome,great content,stay safe
I'm dying, this is so funny and great. You have great videos! This channel will EXPLODE. SupaStar!
I appreciate your approach by taking the 'road less traveled' and taking advantage of the places between the origin and destination of the route!
i"ve got an idea that might actually be pretty cool. Stream live on twitch or UA-cam on each trip, setup like a dash cam
Take Good Care Of Your Health Dear.
Trucking is one of the roughest jobs. I've been trucking for over 35 years I'm ready to retire. Hope everyone has safe travels .. Keep the dirty side down !!
I am from the UK but my dad lives in MT. One of the best roads I have ridden a motorcycle on is the east entrance road from YS to Cody WY. Love it around YS park. I wish my GSD could go to work with me. So nice to see.
great videos I woul like to learn more about dakoda
Check out the trucking with my dog video :)
What did the Buffalo say to his kid as he sent him off to school?
Bye son! (Bison)
I know, I know, I'll see myself out...
Hahahaha!!!! Wow! That bear was awesome! I love the transitions between the various parts of the day and night- great work, as always!!!! BKM, you never cease to amaze me! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🍪🍪🍪
Bub Zilla this is always my go-to joke 😂
its called texas toast
Thanks Shelby for everything you do, to keep everything going.
