Kevin was lookin for a Labatt’s sign😉
You would think they would have a sign out there telling drivers to slide tandems before getting on scale.
Some days you're the Louisville Slugger...some days you're the BALL 👍
Been to that customer. They sure make it a process to make a delivery lol
👍😆😆😆
worst thing about a new place is its a new place and u know nothing and are relying on info from someone who also may know nothing,
😆👍👍👍
Yeah Kevin is right because neon signs actually light up. It's from a gas inside the bulbs of the light. So the color yellow is a whole different description.
👍
No, it’s a song by John Mayer😉🎸
Hi Kevin and Tonya. I filled an application for Crete.I am 76 years old and retired from meat cutting that i did for 53 yrs. I really enjoy your videos and your commentaries. About the application will Crete contact me? I would like to talk to them about my options. Your videos are like driving right along with you. Thank you for your honesty. Hope to hear from you soon and safe travels to you and Tonya.
Kimberly Clarke just pulled out of Canada. No more Kleenex🙁
Good to know about the chocolate
😆😆😆👍
It’s mad how American trucks are so under powered the sign of the slightest hill and you can hear the engine crying in pain why oh why do they not make more powerful engines your trucks even carry lighter weights crazy
And why oh why in this day and age do they not have hands free calling in the trucks either instead of those silly headsets
This has been the longest trip in history going from Florida to Mobile!
Wait, Florida to Missouri coming up. 😂
Hey Kevin, what do you do when you pick up a empty trailer and it’s got a flat or two ?
???
That paper mill looks like one pain in the neck place to drop off at.
great watching you. i drove for Werner int. some 30 years ago...
You're to young to remember the "Burma Shave" signs.
Ran from 1958 to 1963.
ibeen to places like that , even worse when the place in a a location with only 1 legal way to get there ,
👍👍👍
I'm your number one viewer ❤always ❤️ watching u2 channel greatest channel in 🇺🇸 🌎..be safe ,God bless❤
Hello sir, I live in England. I have been a truck driver for 6 years. I have a UK passport. I want to come to America for work and life. How can I do this? Can you guide me? Thank you.
At the southern border you can just walk across anywhere with NO papers with the mega millions of others... Or do it legally at port of entry
I have a question what size of fridge fits in a truck ?? Anyone with knowledge??
I love you Keven they are going to pay you $70000
We appreciate that! You mean Crete?
Nice Video

Hi hi Happy Sunday from the U.K.
We r not sludge she said. Lol i hope not
😆😆😆👍
Great video.
Thanks!!!
Just left there a few days ago they had a alligator on the loose 😂
Been to this KC so many times used to be my coming out of the house load.
You two are having more fun than a barrel of monkeys 👍🤠
the bear always wins.
Some Days you are Kevin.; Some days you are his wife.
Cool to see you working in my neck of the woods.
What's the name of the chocolate please
Glad to see you guys back in the truck, again congrats on the house 🏠 👏
What is the name of the chocolate bar.
I read a article last night that said eating at least 70 percent dark chocolate is great for cognitive and memory functions.
How much is that??
@@efil4kizum how much is what?
@@Ohiostategenerationx the 70% dark chocolate compared to the standard chocolate
@@efil4kizum your question still makes no sense. Regular chocolate has milk and other ingredients. The dark chocolate has very little milk in it. So I still don't understand your question. If you are asking price it depends on where you live at the most. In my area it was a few bucks for a chocolate bar.
Yes I’ve heard it
The Joy of Chocolate 🍫
Close doesn’t count !
Nope.. i havent
Been there
Hope yall been doing well ❤,,always ❤️ watching u2 channel, greatest channel on earth n 🇺🇸 🌎,, keep posting.. u2 be safe God bless both...
Yikes, I’m convinced whoever designs these places has never seen a tractor-trailer before. Walmart load! My favorites, though I wonder how their dry goods facility compares to food. I made a delivery of beef and assorted beef products to a Walmart DC in Robert, LA, and that place was just sort of a chaotic nightmare! Only four hours to unload! At least Walmart is consistent. Safe travels
Do you understand the words coming out of my mouth? Lol. Sloane, hopefully Kevin is a fan of Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
I heard the bug and windshield saying from a very old trucker that came by my grandparents cafe diner when I was eight years old back in 1956.
Yep Yep.... And the Bugs last words were "That's Me All Over"....LOL....
Africatown is where the clotilda, a ship bringing slaves illegally to the U.S. and the person in charge wanted to hide the evidence burnt the ship so it sunk. Part of the ship is still underwater and in Africatown I believe there’s only 3 families that are decedents of some of the original families that were on that ship. I’m new to Alabama so some of this may be mixed up.
As always truly enjoy watching and listening to Tanya's narration. B safe🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🇵🇭🇵🇭
I have heard this expression my whole life. Sometimes You eat the bear sometimes the bear eats you
👏👏👏👏👏
😂😂😂According to google neon are bright colours to glow with intensity 😂😂😂😂
Your wife should get her CDL and then you guys could drive teams and really kill it.
I'm turning 60 in a couple months. I was hearing that bug on the windshield saying in the late 60's.
😄👍👌
Beer is extremely heavy. Pulled a load of Bud from Delaware to western SC
Great job, being from the south have heard that saying all my life 😊
Have you driven that bridge at night?
It’s beautiful.
Those paper mills always are pretty big and is very interesting love the video and so glad ya’ll are safe
That way station needs to redesign it’s so crazy tight specially with how much space they have .
Very interesting, enjoyed. Have a great day and be safe.😊😊😊😊
Some days you get the chicken, some days you get the feathers. 😂
😂 And if you drive for Tyson Foods, you always get the chicken… and assorted chicken products.
@@chasedooley6237 Lol.
Fun,fun. How did the bathroom remodel go?
I think he meant (fluorescent) and said neon.
Hello my friend be careful and safe out there
We say that in construction,, the bear
Sometime chicken, sometimes feathers
I love Kev when he’s Philosophical 😂
How you liking tgat new truck?
Kevin is right about being the bug
Great video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🛎️🛎️
Do you know why it’s called Africatown ?
???
The bear thing is real.
I heard that back in the 80s. A friend of mine used to say it all the time Some days you're the bug and some days you're the windshield.🎉❤❤
IF YOU CAN BEAR IT
Nice video👍👍🌴🌴
Mobile?
First
What's the last thing that goes through a bugs mind when it hits the windshield?
It’s colon
I don’t know and it’s really Bugging me.
that's correct.@@1gabemid
Splat
