No better way to experience the rural United States, grab a seat with Super Trucker Dan and enjoy the ride!🤠👍🇺🇸
As I get older Dan I run more back roads all the time ... after 36 years @ this my patience for the stupid driving nowdays on the Interstate is wearing thin. I don't really care if it takes longer , I'd rather have peace and see some sights along the way. I'm getting too old to be in a hurry anymore .. feel way more relaxed on the scenic routes
Thanks Dan, Teresa, Bailey, coordinator and subscribers/viewers.
Good little project. Think of tractor parts stores for that smaller stuff for the genny.
Hello Teresa sign is back 👍
One of my favorite parts of our world. Train for the day and all. Stay safe.
Safe travels. Love ❤❤❤ the way you picked up Miss Bailey @ the start of the video. Give Miss Bailey a hug, smooches, & scratches behind both ears.
That was a great rest area for Bailey. Not a truck in sight with the whole area for her to play at.
Dan the bulkhead and your tarp jobs are always spot on . They look quite professional.
God bless America 🇺🇸
Dan, I love the farmland. Reminds me of when I was a kid. Thank you for sharing.👍👍👍
truck and trailer looking good Dan , little Bailey happy camper , Is that load of pipe pay pretty good , Did not have too many straps on either load Dan , for sure good idea bulk head on the front of it safety for sure , If you hauled the same stuff over and over where it did not hang over the front of the trailer you can put a bulk head on there , But I would not do it , For sure running the farm ground best way to truck,
be safe take care yourselves DAN
Dan Dan the AC Man - oops - now the Generator Man!! Thanks for the train of the day, keep safe out there.
Dorsey trailers for all your trailer needs Dorsey Trailers
You are a fine example that an independent trucker can survive but you have to be a good manager and able to keep your equipment in good shape. Thanks
A Saturday night surprise!! Thanks for doing a first rate job of explaining how to load things in a safe manner. 'Was surprised to see you clear some of those low hanging trees in the beginning of the video.
Dan Dan the professional flat deck man. Loved the relaxing video. Going through the back woods is a nice change from the freeway. Tractor and trailer look top notch as usualThanks Dan for taking the time out to make and post these videos. Have a great and a safe day. Happy trails and happy motoring.
Never heard of that Railroad but it looks like they were Hauling Grainers. 👍🙏
Thanks for the video, Dan!!!
Another “run through the woods” route that you may consider around Chicago when heading East is one of my favorites.
From I57, take 17 East at Kankakee to Momence. Take 114 East on the south edge of Momence. 114 will change to hwy 10 at the Indiana state line. 10 intersects with I65 or you can stay on 10 until you get to hwy 49 to go north. This option lets you miss the I65, 80, 90 mess .
It’s about 30 miles from Kankakee to I65 and about 50 miles over to 49.
Have a great weekend.
I use that exact route occasionally. Sometimes I make my way from 10 to US 30 or US 24 east, maybe even US 6 depending on how much clock I have. All will take me close to home just north of Fort Wayne In.
Nice work on the pipe! I always told new drivers to put a couple chains or straps on for “Your” safety!
Dan, I really enjoy when you take "the back roads". I believe the best of things/places to see when traveling are usually away from the major arteries (Freeways/Expressways/Toll Roads. Thanks for sharing. Wishing you safe travels.
You found some serious back roads, a couple of those didn't have lane markings even. Safe travels and favorable tail winds you Dan, I sure enjoy your videos.
You weren't joking about going the scenic route, some of those roads didn't even look like two lane roads, more like a lane and a half country road.
Glad to see the Kankakee, Beaverville an Southern is still in business. I spent the night in that rest area in Coldwater many years ago. Lived up to its name that night. Froze my a$$ off 😁
Hey Dan...
That's my Red Peterbilt (big sleeper) parked across the parking lot from you tonight.
If ya don't leave to early in the morning maybe we can say Hi!
Be safe , have a good one
I think if I was that other driver I would have taken advantage of learning something from your bulk head safety. Really nice dog harness she knows what putting it on means ,HA!!! Staying away from crazy traffic has to lower the stress levels.
You know it’s serious when the soup can gives out. Stay safe.
Thank you for the content.
Running through the woods in Michigan in the summer. It doesn't get much better. Stay safe.
Nice video, like others I love the backroads, especially to avoid high traffic areas. Stay safe.
Dan i love the scenic rought you took makes a nice change
Thanks for your time and the video Dan
Very interesting how you strap your loads in the US🇺🇸
Thanks again stay safe out there
🌵🇬🇧👍
No such thing as too many straps Dan!. Better extra than not enough. Nice professional job there. Great video as usual. Safe travels!
Did anyone notice Dan disappearing into the clouds with the phone call? Nice editing!
Good video
A very nice repair and a very good bulkhead, those things save lives.
You truckers see some of the best of the United States of America that some people never seen or thought of. You share it with us. THANK YOU. Family safe. You and the co driver B SAFE 🇺🇲 🚛 💨 💨 💨 💨
That was a real nice ride through the country. Similar to some French routes. Love the soup can repair, common exhaust fix in the 1960's.
Beautiful video of the backroads. The low hanging trees scared me a bit!
Stay safe you and Bailey.
Best, bob
Another good video. Keep them coming and be safe in your travels. Like the new hi Teresa sign
Love taking the back roads less stress great video.
I’ve hauled lots of steel bars and tubing shells into South Lyon MI
you bet scenic right thru local neighborhoods
You have to be a jack of all trades to be a truck driver
Hi Dan. I enjoyed the ‘back roads’ drive. Avoiding anywhere near Chicago is often a good choice. Some of those overhanging branches thru that residential area looked pretty low! Any time Bailey gets camera time is also a joy. Thanks and stay safe.
Thanks for explaining the bulkhead. My uncle Delbert used to tell me that a load of steel can be nasty if it ever slides forward. He used an early diesel with just a cab. He gave up trucking when his truck had a steering box lock up and his truck with gasoline rolled in a prairie field. He gave up trucking even though he survived the resulting fire. He took a payout from his insurance.
Long time no see brother from the imperial county California 👍👍🇺🇲🇺🇲
He just had a video of 2 days ago.
never too many straps...safe travels to you and queen bailey!
Better to be over strapped than two short.
GOOD SATURDAY MORNING DAN COOL VIDEO YOU DO GREAT WORK & I APPRECIATE YA ! STAY SAFE BE BLESSED 🐾🐾🐾❤️🐾🐾🐾
Train is route 24 at Sheldon Illinois, I live next town west in Watseka!
Cool video Dan 👍
Interesting bulkhead Dan. I would think that some company in the industry would make a flexible one made out of a style like chain link fence. Flexable enough that it can be folded to some extent.
Wonder if the place in Springfield Illinois is the same place i loaded plastic pipe out of 40 years ago.. used to run it too Wallingford CT. But hated they made me smoke tarp…😂. Winter time fun climbing up .
Thanks for the Memories…..and the train 👍👍👍
Good stuff!!!
Back in next to you bout 0200 @ the ranger keep trucking buddy
Thanks for the video Dan and Bailey. Take care of yourself and family and be Blessed. Safe travels.
Bailey is so cute. Love the video. Stay safe! Rest up!
Thanks for the scenic and informative trip.
Welcome back my friend and you guys have a blessed week 🙏
Safe travels
Love the train for the day segment! Thanks.
You remind me of my dad making things work with you got I watch your videos all the time
Gr8 Vid & Content Mr Dan!!!!!!!! Safe Travels out there 4 U & Bailey!!!!! 😎🇺🇸
WOW ! ! ! Kankakee, Beaverville and Southern Railway, great catch !
as a viewer, I like you showing going thru the backroads instead of the super highways.
Safe roads always trucker 🚛🚛🚛🚛🚛🚛👍
Thanks Dan
Saw you westbound I-44 going through Missouri today, tried reaching you on the CB but no luck. Safe travels Dan & Bailey.
Hay Dan I really enjoy it when you hit the back roads. Get to see parts of the US that I am never going to see otherwise as based in the UK. (I do a yearly to Phoenix to visit family)Well pleased also that you brought up the subject of the front rack. I have wondered why these are not on trailers in the US. I worked in the road transport industry in. auz in the 80 and most fleets (not all) would have front and rear racks and usually a full set of side gates too. I am still involved in transport here in the UK but not operationally. Here in this part of the world it is mostly van and tort liners. Of course there are plenty of flat beds but have a tendency to be used for specialised freight and machinery.
🙏🙏🙏stay safe out there 🙏🙏
SVG Killer Kiwi fantastic race. Go Chicago. Still buzzing
When Ice Road Truckers Tv show first appeared several years ago I never
could understand why none of the trucks running the Ice Roads thru the
Canadian Arctic had an APU.
!
I like US 24 as well, I like to go that way if I have the time, saves in tolls too
Have a safe trip Dan!
Have a great trip God bless from GA and stay safe
Hi dan here in Australia 🇦🇺 they put bulkheads on the front and back of trailers dunno if is a leagal thing or not
Great video Dan
With them ears Bailey has to be the offspring of YODA! May the Force be with her!
Thanks Dan, great job
Great videos and getting lots of useful information and just going through the days living vicariously through you! Where do you get your coveralls? Looks like a really good idea. Thanks for the content!
You must @ the Road Ranger Graysville. Good quiet little place to park. Been there myself a few times
The master mechanic saving himself money again.
Another good video Dan KEEP ON TRUCKIN 👍 🇺🇲 🚛 🐘 👌
The bottom pipe more than likely schedule 20 easy to squash if it were 40 or 60 you couldn't dent it with a strap.
Because there are many train rerailments, good idea to stop a long distance from crossing.
👍
Saw this load on Instagram👌
G'day, Dan! Enjoyed the video! By the way... The bulkhead and your tarping job is spot on, as always! Thank you! Cheers! ❤😊✌🏻🚛
P.S. Wait for it... Lol! 🤣
10:32 In the UK we call that oiled steel. Nightmare!! here you are not allowed to leave the works (depot) without a reinforced headboard. Not sure you have these in the USA?
zinc is better than black straps if you want something tied down tight. black is strong enough to hold this pvc, though
You missed me by about five miles. I live in A small town about five miles south of the next to last exit from I - 64 in Indiana.
Dan you weren't shitting!!!
Back roads that one looked like a tractor path on some farm?! Lmao
You can never have too many straps on metal pipe!!
Muffler on the generator.
If you build a pipe muffler you would be amazed on how much it would get.
I'm the winter we runs Honda generator for the ice eaters to keep the water open. If you want look me up.
Thanks
Dan V
2 🚂🚂🚂 in 2 weeks. 😊
Finally...a trucker blogger channel w/o a foul-mouth😜
You tell me where to buy the straps that are a combo of strap and chains please
Google Mytee flatbed equipment. You can find them there.
Thanks for Watching
South Lyon is quite a far cry from Us Detroit Metro Suburbs !!!
I gotta say, I’ve never seen pipe like that before. Looks like some kind of weapons grade stuff.
No smoke tarp?
when you threw the chain on the flatbed, i paid better attention
You were serious when you said back roads
Detroit is 10 miles straight down Gratiot from Me. But I tend not to go past 14 mile road 🤫
You can never use to many straps 😂
