Thank you for showing us the beautiful places that there are near the freeways and roads and thank you for sharing with us your experience as a truck driver. Thank you very much for your creativity. I wish you all the best in my projects because you deserve it!!!!
They had the best pecan pie back in the day.I would head out that way to Texas when I was driving and go to the monfort meat plant I think cactus Texas.Your videos are great keep up the good work and be safe.
not to mention, It was extremely hot, as I was on my way south from Weston Georgia on my motorcycle, making a pecan pie run. 114 air temp. geez, Had I known you were in that lot, I would have stopped in and said hello. I went right through ocala on my way south.
Hi Jack.. I know you said Volvo told you that your Suspension is normal for a Volvo but you would really do Big Red and yourself a favor by putting some new springs underneath her. I had a Volvo for 14 years and replaced the springs every couple of years. those large leaf springs really carry a lot of weight and take a beating. keep up the good work and drive safe. P.S If i run across you out on the road the steak dinner is on me.
Always enjoy your vids Jack!! I live near Ocala, Fl , good to see ya there, hope to meet ya one day out here on the road, I always look at red Volvos, but its never you. haha. safe travels
As a former new century transportation mechanic out of westampton nj, the way we used to find air leaks was to drive the trucks into the retention pond by the shop and look for bubbles. The driver's didn't like it when we had to open the doors to find in cab leaks.....lol.....mabey that why they filed bankruptcy and closed..hmmm
I've been on the road for over 20 years. Last month I quit my job and plan on taking the summer off. I'll be honest I don't miss the road at all. I love being at home and having a life. But I also know I'll have to go back by September and I hate the thought of it. I'm not sure what happened. At one time I loved running the road.
The WIFIconnefction is great at the Gulfport Ms, FlyingJ I use it all the time I pass through there weekly the use to have a pretty good restaurant and they took that out too, Be safe Jack catch ya on the flip-flop.
Love the trip to California, although the new camera position makes the video very shaky. A more steady camera location would be great. Keep on Truckin!!
I remember a Chinese writing about sleeping with your head pointed north is beneficial for good blood flow and a good awaking. I haven't tried it though.
This is the second one I have had in 1 million miles.... There was a gear or something like that inside that went out. Plus the seals would no longer seal the unit. Every couple months it would start leaking again.
JACK I liked your video and the weather your getting over there send some over hear. I know what you mean waiting to load . I am glad to be retired. [keep on trucking]FRED . from ESSEX U.K.
Meh! I so HATE the U.S: pallets when we get them in Europe. Some of you might know (or not), that a lot of times drivers here have to do the loading themselves and the U.S. type can't really be moved with a pallet mover, as ours are all designed for the standardized Euro-pallets - thus you have to force the mover in and that breaks them 9 out of 10 times :s p.s. Why put up a sign...that would spoil all the fun, wouldn't it? *irony mode OFF*
Did you lose a days earnings by loading a trailer then giving it away then having to load another the following day with no mileage. I'd be spitting feathers ! Shounds like Volvo's workmanship in the US is a bit shoddy !
this is the best trucking channel hands down
Jacks adventures are always the best, guys got such a great positive attitude for a trucker, great video as always Jack, keep on truckin.
Top video,Jack.
Always look forward to them!

I love that Oasis ts too, their gift shop can entertain me for hours!
Good video Jack. Good scenery and I like that you tell it like it is.
So nice to ride with you again, and in Red, even if it was seven years ago.
Another great video. Keep em coming Jack.

Hurry up and wait I see hasn't changed. Why do I miss driving? LOL glad to see all is well. Stay Safe!!
9:02 That is one of the most frustrating parts of OTR trucking. Jack, I feel your pain, man.
I just stayed at the oasis Monday. I love that truck stop
That Oasis is really an eclectic place! Enjoyed seeing it, as well as the other places you've been.
you are good man
you work hard
jack, I Google shippers before I arrive to get an idea on what I may be hauling. it gives me an idea on the weight the load may be.
Thanks for the ride Jack !

This was filmed a few weeks ago. Hope you have a good trip home and a great 4th.
You have a great 4th yourself and keep making great videos and safe travels.
Love the trip to California, although the new camera position makes the video very shaky. A more steady camera location would be great. Keep on Truckin!!
Just hearing you mention Quiznoz makes me hungry Jack. I'm gonna get one right now..
watched every video you have put out, really enjoy them. just wondering are the pros and risks worth leasing my own truck or stick to company driver?
where in Cal. are you going? when will you/were you here? If it's so Cal, I'd like to meet you to say hello.
What kind of vibration dampers do you use for your truck mounts?
Very fine. Archive
Jack, do you ever haul haz-mat?
How can you sleep comfortably in your bunk this time of year with the heat and humidity down in the Southeast? apu? idle?
I remember a Chinese writing about sleeping with your head pointed north is beneficial for good blood flow and a good awaking. I haven't tried it though.
17:24 if you use it inside it's free. Outside you pay.
That was a cool looking tunnel in Mobile, where was that?
It is the tunnel on 10 in Mobile. It is right downtown.
Hi Jack, thats cruel life. Eyes get worse when beard turns grey😢😆
Hello sir. How you doing?
Bye the way great singing.I try to sing. Great day.
Hey Jack, do you still have your other channel? I was looking for the vid on what editing software you use.
Yes I still have the other channel... and it did start the series on editing but only did one or two videos so far
Ok stupid question, what was the name? I cant remember lol
+Wally Twixter its called life is a jurney
Hey Jack do you have a merch shop?
Jack did you remount the camera ? I was getting car sick with all the bouncing..
Hi Jack, Did your steering gear get loose, or did it start leaking? Do they have rebuilt boxes for Volvo?
This is the second one I have had in 1 million miles.... There was a gear or something like that inside that went out. Plus the seals would no longer seal the unit. Every couple months it would start leaking again.
is it your own truck or company's truck?
👍👍👍
Yes! Finally leaving Florida and heading WEST. I admit that I was losing heart with the vids of late.
is this a part 1?
How can you not know what you're picking up? Don't you need to know weight to decide if trip worth taking?
JACK I liked your video and the weather your getting over there send some over hear. I know what you mean waiting to load . I am glad to be retired. [keep on trucking]FRED . from ESSEX U.K.
Hello Jack
Hi Jack' Check your mount, it shake the video. Thanks. Ben.
I was noticing it too, but I thought it was just shaking because the whole truck is bouncing around.
Is that loxly Alabama?
Yes it is
Heavy load??
Jack, How can someone send you a video ?
video was a bit short today jack!
In Breaux Bridge, crawfish is king.
What is the name of the company that they guy works for that gets $25 a hour to wait on his load?
Mr Brownstone rohel out off Wisconsin. Hard to believe 25 hours
25 dollars an hour after how many hours? Generally the first 3-6 hours are free.
how do u like your job
You mentioned losing time for a "Wreck"? We didn't see a wreck.
dont you bid on own loads instead of some dispatcher dictating what loads to take or not jack?
I've yet to find a mechanic that could fix an air leak. But they always charge for fixing the air leak.
Always enjoy your videos, but the new camera location vibrates way too much. Makes the video tough to watch.
I hate when there are no signs for shipping or receiving it drives me nuts
the rules for driving is set by World Health Organization
Maverick trucking pays their truckers $25.00/hour. But only after you wait for the first hour for free. A flatbed trucker told me this.
can you muffle your turn signal sound please. thanks jack. amen
US$ 3 for a sandwich plus tax, that's daylight robbery. I can get my breakfast here in Spain for less than 2.10 €uros
Banana For Comparison
Quiznos pretty much out of business.

Montag fahr ich von Mogendorf nach Frankfurt.

pallets. .. big time money load there. even still, I'd rather haul cheap ass pallet load than step one foot in California.
