You start your trips at the oddest times, and need to take your breaks when you have to, but you take it all in your stride. Enjoying all your cinematic masterpieces, thanks Ken.
Well done another excellent job quality production... Very wise to avoid Hwy down to the Gold Coast & Border in the arvo what a nightmare of traffic till you dart into that tunnel under Coolangatta airport.. Bin their done that & I guarantee this can make one a tad grumpy.. A little traffic to Redbank as per norm.. Lucky you are not going over the Gap Tues 30/10/23 Temps are going to be over the Mid 30c. Ipswich expecting 36c & we have 50knot plus winds perfect for driving in, at least you did not get stopped for nightly roadworks in the Gap...Great to see the professional way you do things, pre trip, weights etc. The butt stops at you & you are the boss in control, What happens is your decision & its your wallet that will feal the pain when things are not done right.. To many out here forget its all on them safety of the vehicle,.. that dirty word Chain Of Responsibility Legislation Law we have.. 😀😀😀😀
Two hours into the trip I’m buggered already, I’m hearing you mate, people like you keep this country feed, outstanding service mate, I take my hate off for you and for all the rest of you good people.
Hi Ken live pulling up the gap my 89 2 gm use to sing going up there I loved it ,,Newell seems to be busy ,when I was running it there wasn’t many trucks after midnight nice Vide old son I love so much I relive my past through you thank you so much pal keep on truckin stay safe god bless yu old mate cheers ❤️❤️👍👍👍😀😀😀😎🦘🇦🇺
Best videos by a long shot, that road hasn't changed 1 bit. Wish a lot more drivers had your attitude and relaxed a bit more. Just reading other comment, you have a lot of people loving your videos, I always look forward to the next one. Take care mate. 😎👌👍
Well done mate. I've been tuning into a few different trucking channels lately and yours for me is the most interesting, well edited, informative and honest depiction of life on the road. You guys are the backbone of this country and should get more recognition for the hard work you put in. Keep up the great work mate. Cheers 🇦🇺😎
Great video Ken..... the problem is..... You made a plan..... That's never going to work when there's trucks involved.... My Cat gets a bit hot when there's tail winds.
Hold ups really suck. They can put you behind hours especially when you’re on a demanding schedule. Good to see you’ve sorted the editing issues. Need my weekly dose of the Homeless Trucky!
Ken, you continually put out higher and higher quality videos! You're giving me that itch to get my MC...... Just a local in a HR at the minute but you're inspiring more younger fellers like me than you know!
Love your videos. Thanks for including the town names and some footage as you go through them. It is great to see places that I have been and places that I would like to go. Stay safe.
Great camera shots, like the weigh bridge bit, don't the fork lifts have load cells so they don't over load, its always hard after a long break to get back into the job, great vlogs Kenny regards John
another great video Kenny, i don't know how you do it mate, driving, rest breaks and life and a UA-cam channel on top of that. hats off to you good sir. much love and have a wonderful day 🤗🙏💗😁
Another great video, I appreciate all the effort you go to placing cameras outside the truck and then moving off etc, then you have to stop , get out and pick up your camera.👍 still love the trip down the newell, even though as you said it’s as rough as guts.
Mate im a kiwi but gotta admit your videos are the best out there....great mix between talking,yard and road clips. Thanks heaps for your time and effort, hoping you might get some financial gain from utube 😊
Great video mate it good to see u got it edited, and it great to see your face ken you bloody lenged.. sage trip and keep it shiney side up bud 😊🤙p.s i have waiting for your video lol and checked everyday for the last week 🤣🤣
Good trip ... Lookin forward to more trips and scenery. Any chance of an explanation of the modern 'auto/manual' box... all we had were Rangers and the odd spicer back in the day
Brilliant as always mate! Top camera angles and really admire how you take the setbacks in your stride especially with those load weight dramas at the start
Pulled up at Narrabri myself the other day had the super break roll for 11 bucks and a real good feed..Made me feel much better as I hoped back in my trusty T 600 KW
It's amazing how things change over the years. No way would I have gone the Pacific and the Hume to Melbourne. I guess the time difference now can't be much different than the Newell.
I drove from Coffs to Sydney on Friday and drove back on Sunday. I got a crick in my neck trying to read the numbers on the cabs on all the Lyndsays trucks. You need a flag on the front so we can spot you. Cheers.
Another great video mate yer having to unload a couple of times make your day longer make you feel buggered u got there safe that's the main thing have a safe one
I was busy in the NTO last night with diverting trucks around the warrick fires it’s bad up there I’ve got to nights off but I will definitely give u a call on ya truck phone and introduce myself and say hi only been in there for 8 months now!! Jamie is my mentor and doing a great job at teaching me the right way take care and stay safe out there
Nice one Ken. I felt for you having to muck around with minor repairs and shuffling your load around, brought back memories of my own. What was it Van Morrison sung ' Muma Told Me There'd Be Days Like This'. See you on the next one pal.
Hi Ken, Let's do a two up... You drive,i sleep... I drive,you sleep.... You eat,I'll watch.. I'll eat,you watch.... We'll get there in no time.... What do you think hey.... Take care, buddy safe driving....
Thx Ken, always look forward to your next video. Meaning to ask this once before, when you lock on to a another travelling buddy and follow on for a while. It would be a good focus and safer ride.?
Depends on the type of person you lock onto lol,… but most blokes are ok,but you don’t want to annoy them though, if they don’t want a chat, they’re probably in the middle of something,…home, audio book or just want to be left alone lol
kenny a couple suggestions about the over weight 1 weight the truck before putting fuel in it. Because fuel weight lesson as go down the coast 2 winded the B trailer legs down while on weigh bridge 3 take your lunch box and coffee cups out of the truck
Bloke in the roadhouse who was a bit short with you. Like me you’ve been around and some blokes…and girls…have good days and bad days and being stuck in a roadhouse working shift is not my idea of a career. Sometimes you have to do jobs that you hate because there are no other options at the time and looking ahead there seems to be no way out. I give these people a fair bit of lead as they are living in shitstreet and wearing it. Hopefully they can dig their way out, but in country towns that’s hard.
@@thehomelesstrucky 😂😂😂 nahhh I was in my car going the other way back to the airport to fly out west..just here for a few day’s cob,… people getting desperate to get you autograph these day’s are they?..hiding in green bins😂😂 or the heavies!
Hello Mr Ken Great video as always Ken been meaning to ask you this but do you prefer your truck or tge cab over kenworth? Is there more room in tge cabover? Or are they just used for local work? P,s you look knackered, have a beer 🍻 😊
The 610 is what I was allocated but I’m quite happy to drive a cab over if I was given one,… I reckon the room is about the same in the two standard cabs
You put so much effort in, here's a little something to show my support for your channel.
Thanks so very much I really appreciate it
You start your trips at the oddest times, and need to take your breaks when you have to, but you take it all in your stride. Enjoying all your cinematic masterpieces, thanks Ken.

Thanks 👍
I'm driving nights too ,mate if I have a coffee at the end of night I cant sleep at all. Your a machine .
For some reason it doesn’t bother me

Some of your best work Ken thankyou for letting us share your trucking good life!! Keep her clean and between the ditches mate💪👍👍
Thanks 👍
Top job Ken. The weigh bridge music @ 5.20 was a laugh, almost burlesque. "What the gentleman saw next".
Great camera angles Ken. Superb music. Thoroughly enjoying your journeys. Thanks
Thanks so much
I'm glad you're back I really enjoy your vlog and I can't wait for your next vlog keep on trucking 👍
Thanks 👍
Great video Ken..... the problem is..... You made a plan..... That's never going to work when there's trucks involved....
My Cat gets a bit hot when there's tail winds.
You usually have to make 3 or 4 plans and pick one 5 minutes before you leave lol
Worth waiting for, Ken.. You found a replacement software...🎉🎉 Keep safe as always.
I tried a couple of other options but I like VN,so just have to pay for it now lol
Hold ups really suck. They can put you behind hours especially when you’re on a demanding schedule. Good to see you’ve sorted the editing issues. Need my weekly dose of the Homeless Trucky!
These things happen
It took me half a day to carve out the time to sit down and watch this uninterrupted. Not disappointed. You're a bloody National Treasure Ken.
Thanks mate
Brother outstanding as always mate, keep it goin brother
A long time no see Homeless trucks,good to see you
Ken, you continually put out higher and higher quality videos! You're giving me that itch to get my MC...... Just a local in a HR at the minute but you're inspiring more younger fellers like me than you know!
Thanks mate appreciate it
Another top video, Ken. Stay safe out there.👍
Well done ken, I take my hat off to you, multitasking truckie, gotta hate it being tired and have to drive for another 12 hours, thanks mate 👍
You get used to it lol
The production values keep getting better. You have set a new standard with this one, Ken.
Thanks mate, trying to learn new stuff all the time
Love your videos. Thanks for including the town names and some footage as you go through them. It is great to see places that I have been and places that I would like to go. Stay safe.
Thanks Peter
G'day Ken, love your videos mate. I see you didn't turn the opposition's plyboard around on the back trailer LOL. Safe travels.👍👍
Great camera shots, like the weigh bridge bit, don't the fork lifts have load cells so they don't over load, its always hard after a long break to get back into the job, great vlogs Kenny regards John

It's amazing how things change over the years. No way would I have gone the Pacific and the Hume to Melbourne. I guess the time difference now can't be much different than the Newell.
We all had to go via the coast road while the floods were on and a lot of blokes never went back lol
I drove from Coffs to Sydney on Friday and drove back on Sunday. I got a crick in my neck trying to read the numbers on the cabs on all the Lyndsays trucks. You need a flag on the front so we can spot you. Cheers.
On ya kenny .
Keep on trucking. 💪💪💪

When I loaded trucks I knew to the Kg how much each pallet weighed, That must suck mate.
Forkies are like truck drivers now,… not what they used to be lol
@@thehomelesstrucky Yeah but it's wrong mate, we all have a job to do and you have a time limit.
