    I'm a truck driver in the UK and over here we call it "tramping" where you will typically spend all week away in the truck 4/5 nights out at a time then have a 45 hour reset. Some drivers will go over into Europe and then they could be away for a few weeks at a time

    Hi 👋, Josh! From what I was able to find out $1000 Canadian is roughly $735 US. I’m Andrew. As far as your loneliness and stuff goes … have you thought about therapy? I know it’s costly. But I have bipolar and it’s incredibly helpful. And you don’t need a psychiatric diagnosis to go to therapy.
    You haven't posted any videos in a while. I hope you're ok.

    When I started driving in 2014 Josh was pretty new too. I watched a lot of his videos. Good to see him sticking it out. The statistic is that most new drivers quit within two years. What happened to Diesel? I haven’t seen watched one of your videos in a long time. I have a black and tan Kelpie that looks exactly like Diesel. She’s 14 now. Keep after it. I’ve had my own challenges recently, but trucking has been good to me. I think we’re about the same age too, I’m 37.

    Yeah, sometimes this is what life is on the road and I never did a reset on the road and I with my dad, but oh yeah, I know what it’s like because of the company he was driving for in for they go to California and he he never went that far. He did to the south east in a little bit of the Midwest, like Iowa Minnesota we like it like over in Illinois on so he never had to reset on the road but there were lots of guys that were in West for that company that did so I never had that experience resetting on the road but they were allowed to go through the company dead so I know I know I realize what it’s like

    I always had the front of the truck as my "office" area. Everything related to work was in the front. Everything in the back was "home." Those Wet Wipes come in very handy! I have them in the big container like the Clorox wipes. Lol Its amazing how easy the inside of the truck gets so dirty in such a short time, and it's just you in it! But when a lot of places you go are dirt lots, it's easy to track in dirt. I even had my work boots and shoes on a shoe mat up front and slippers for the back to minimize dirt. Dirt, dirt, and more dirt. One thing you dont run out of on the road. Dirt. Lol

    • @jerryfbkify
      @jerryfbkify 3 місяці тому

      You wear shoes in your trucks? I'd say 90% of all truckers in Sweden leave their shoes on the steps. Although our doors closes over the last step.
      Boots, gloves and helmet are stored in a outside compartment.

    We’ve got a 20-year old truck, under 59K miles, with an electrical leak in the heat/AC system. We got a heavy-duty jumper, called a jump and go, for when we run out of juice. Finally put a battery kill switch on the battery, park it, open the switch, then leave the hood up as a reminder, truck is in the garage. The jump and go sure came in handy before the kill switch.

I’d like to know what kind of batteries do you have? $1000 that’s a lot of money for batteries. I’m also from Canada. I am pretty sure I know where you. It looks familiar. If I was in Langley I would come and take you for lunch or supper. Have a great day and be safe.
