My husband was a driver for 20+ years until he had a heart attack and open heart surgery the first time was 10 years ago he had to have another one on Aug this year that almost killed him. He was in a coma for 9 days they could not close him up for 3 days because the doctor cut his aorta half into he had to repair that and he lost a lot of blood his heart swelled so bad it left him on dialysis and was a diabetic and liver failure thank God that all has reversed but it also left him with no feeling in his arm and legs for awhile he can feed himself now but still can’t walk to good. But he watches you all time and wishes he could get back out there. He loved to drive he sits on our porch and watches all the trucks go by. Be safe out there 🙏❤️. He and I both would love it if you were to mention his name or say hi to him. His name is Scott Sullivan thank you 🙏
Do you wanna hear an opinion I’ve been driving for 15 years. I just heard a manager in DMV in New Jersey got busted for selling CDL’s to foreigners that’s bullshit.
@@fred379-y8l she was selling them to the idiots that are bringing the trucking industry down and putting lives in danger! Shame on her! I hope she gets in so much trouble!
Great video bandit love the scenery, i didnt mean to give someone your video secrets brother, i was tired of watching his videos and him saying he had the best trucking content, i had to tell him whats up bro, stay safe out there buddy!!!!
Thanks for being an honest bandit .It might not be nice to hear, but it's for their own safety and the safety of everyone else on the roads. Good job, bandit
Back in the late 70s, I was running double with my old man. We were hauling machinery loads from Montreal to lots of places in Florida, Alabama and Louisiana. I'm sound asleep in the bed when Pops wake me up and tells me he ran by a portable scale. He saw the sign but ran it anyway. Cops caught us a few miles down and my father told me to tell them that he ran it because he didn't understand the sign!!! That's what I said to the trooper, next thing I see is the Policeman going back to his car and coming back with a little book. He ask me if I could read and understand English and I said Yes. The next question was....Can you drive that truck legally and I said Yes!!! Than he showed me a text of law in his little book...Plain and simple, if you can't read or understand English in the U.S.A.....You are not allowed to drive a car or a commercial vehicles in the U.S.A. I Don't know if the law was changed but how crazy if it didn't???
Thank you for the extra long video Bandit. Beautiful views even though it wasn’t 40 through the Gorge because that’s priceless!! Looks like North Carolina wasn’t good to you (Aldi). Stay safe
Thank you my friend, for the scenic ride thru parts of Va., N. Carolina, Dang what a cluster *uck there at Aldi's, hope you are able to fix the coolant leak, reefer, maybe something you won't need to bring to thermo king. Stay safe out there, I think Richard dumped that micrwave, lol.
Mt. Ary is the birthplace of Andy Griffith from the tv show Mayberry rfd. And The Andy Griffith Show, with Barney, Opie, Aunt Bee. The town is also home to Donna Fargo she's a country singer. I had the pleasure of touring that beautiful little town. I was in Otis jail cell, I rode in an Andy Taylor squad car with lights and sirens. It's so laid back and enjoyable there. No ones in a hurry to go anywhere. Very very pretty place to visit. Not overly priced on their shops either. Would I go back heck yeah.
Hi bro nice you rolling again I know y'all going thru. I still have my CDL but I'm 67 years old don't drive anything but a Cadillac and a Chevrolet Silverado these days. I might just renew for a regular license. Next time right brah lol
I hear you bro, vehicle insurance went way up. I called the company that I've been dealing with for 7years, told my agent to lower my rate or I'm gone to someone else. He clearly back next day, wea $70 lower.😊

Very nice trip alot of traffic out there on the weekend. Glad you had a good night sleep to make the rest of your trip. Alot of Jake brake action very nice! Neat mountain top. People aways wait till the minute to push over I like to not let them in they either horn their horn or flip you off! Hope there is no leaks anywhere. Holy shit it looks like you will maybe be there a while hope you don't have another pick up? You will maybe say on the don't go list! What a bunch of shit you go through. You stay safe on that on ramp! 🙏
I always shop around every year for truck/trailer/cargo, automotive, motorcycle, homeowners, flood, hurricane, life, etc. Everything. You would be surprised how much you could save sometimes and it could force your current insurer to price match if they want to continue to take your money and not pay your claim. 🤣😂 I delivered at a place where all drivers had to lineup like what you show in your video in Pennsylvania years ago. Never ever again. I’m 75 feet long.
Out here in CA, when lanes are closed, they are telling people to drive to the end of the closed lane and THEN MERGE! Like a zipper they say( Makes no sense to me) it just causes a backup! Guess what? That's safer because nobody is moving! Ha, ha 😅
Automatic transmissions are unsafe, and that's another way they are allowing unqualified drivers to be unqualified drivers. You either have it, or you don't. Some can get it over time. Some will never get it with all the time. To keep it honest, it should be mandatory, manual , mandatory, read, write, and speak English.
I live in the area going down 77s in carroll county pretty country down this area especially going down the mountain, just don't speed through mm 26 down to mm 1 going south or north, cause our country revenues (county sherrifs likes to write tickets alot) just be careful buddy
Coffee remember the good ol days had your cup .Went to cashier if that's all you got .It was not rung up IT WAS HAVE A NICE DAY. But today I know coffee itself cost more
The real reason that your insurance rates just keep going up is that most of these insurance companies quit selling insurance policies down in Florida due to the risk involved because of climate change making hurricanes more prevalent and powerful and they lost that revenue, so to make up for that lost Revenue they are fleecing all you hard working men and women driving trucks, contract delivery parcel drivers and UBER cars because the Secretary of State or Insurance Commissioners get re-election money and cushy high paying jobs when they retire or run for other political offices. The regular joes out there get higher rates too because auto insurance is mandated in every state making us all an easy target with a big sucker sign on every policy, Merry Christmas EVERYONE!!!
Lol i know who you're beefing with over the "family friendly" shit. I watch that guy too and heard him talking about trucker cussing alot and I knew immediately he was talking about you 😂 Likewise, he started doing that camera from behind recently too. The irony of it is that being too obsessed about maximizing viewership turns viewers off, atleast I feel that way, but doing it your way, being authentic and yourself resonates with the trucking demographic highly.

Mount Airy I used to live in North Carolina I used to run down that mountain there every week several times a week
last time you washed did they use red soap? could be the dye they used.

@OTRbandit I’ve never understood why an engine break on a truck is so loud and why it is.
