After 30 years on the road I'm proud to say I got to Truck America when America was truly Free 1970's 80's & 90's was the greatest Truckin days of all time, We got go across Hover Dam we got to Truck over 100 Mph with no fear of jail We partied anytime we wanted, Truckin or Parked up, We did it our way and we done it right, Back when you could recognize a Trucker by the way he dressed, Those days are gone forever in the past, The True Profesional Trucker very few are left. ❤

Wow so true! Brother keep it up, been trucking for 35 yrs and have 40 trucks and we are all tired of the brokers getting Rich off is! Should be against the law. Without us no one will get groceries or anything else! True American truckers like us are a dieing breed. Outlaw trucking for life! 💪 🔥 smoke! Damn ELD’s! Much respect brother!

I am my Father's Daughter and God Rest His Soul. He was a Owner Operator Over-The-Road Truck Driver for 40 Years and had the Respect, Honor and Dignity of the Old Scool Truckers. I had the privilege of riding with my Dad on many Long Hauls and that Old Truckers Law of the long roads he Taught me. God Blessed me with both my Parents giving me a little bit of each of there passions. This Country would HAVE to shut down without Truckers like you Men and Women. Thank ALL of the OLD TRUCK DRIVERS.
Started in Sept 1983. Seen a couple sunsets. The good lord will and the creek don't rise I have 4 more winters.calling it at 70.its been a good ride so far
😢 I am the widow of a Truck driver, as a matter of fact I am wearing a t-shirt right now that says "The only thing tougher than a trucker, is a truckers wife" He drove a truck for nearly 40 years and was an owner operator for the last 8 years before he had to stop working all together due to the fact he had been diagnosed with Silicosis (black lung disease) caused from hauling sand, gravel, fly ash & gyp rock for so many years. He is greatly missed. He passed away October 3,2014 and was on Hospice care at home for 2 years. He was 60 years old and was my world. Thank you for this song. To all the truckers out there "keep the shiny side up and stay out of the ditches", as my husband would always say. 😉 ❤
Thank you sister.for your post and your story. I'm 60, and after 33 years on the road i was pushed out buy a young female dispature that couldn't respect age. But that's this insane world we live in.
@ramblinman3318 I'm so sorry to hear that, and you are right about the world we live in. It's sad, no respect for the hard working older generation 😪 I'm blessed that my husband raised our children with great work ethic. Our oldest is 37 years old and owns his own business in landscaping, & tree trimming. 3 years ago he got divorced so he moved back out here to the farm, and is bringing it back to a working farm, and he is a great help to me as I have severe Lupus with stage 3b kidney failure because of it. He has been teaching his 2 boys and my 3 other grandsons how to work hard. Our 2 daughters followed in my footsteps and are nurses. It hurts me to see the generation now that show no respect and expect to have everything handed to them. Sorry for the long reply. I Pray that God blesses you today and everyday 🙏 💙
They don't make them like you anymore 😢 My wife of 10 years left me because I was a truck driver, when she had a $2,000 a week budget and a life that most women would die for, but nothing is good enough for modern women.
@nunyabiness417 I am so sorry that your wife left you. That's terrible 😞 We made his trucking a family thing, weekends were spent getting his rig ready for 4am Monday morning. He and our son would be doing all the maintenance on the outside while our 2 daughters and I cleaned the inside of the cab and sleeper. He also used to call me & say "Load the kids up & meet me" it was usually for a weekend or a week. I remember when our youngest daughter had chicken pox and I had to work, I am a retired nurse and he took her on the road with him, she curled up in the sleeper watching movies on his TV. Oh what precious memories that we made and now cherish. Sorry for the long reply, got a bit emotional. Bless you
My father drove a truck for Budweiser for 25 years! He was your typical trucker ,hard working and honest as the day is long! Thank you to all the truckers for all that they do! Stay safe and god bless!!!!!!
Love the I5 shots. My dad drove the I5 for 62 yrs and he died 3 months after he retired. He retired at the age of 72 and started driving when he was 13 driving the logging trucks out of the mountains for his grandpa. Been in southern Oregon all my life and so was my dad. This is an awesome song. Thanks for the video!!! Damn I miss my old man
So true .I was an out law trucker for 40 years .I ran 49 state and Canada. In till I got stage 5 kidney disease disease. Keep it up, Wright run hard, be safe, and God bless. 🎉
I totally understand the struggle portrayed in this song...I am a Christian , God fearing man but I also ride with an MC, a 5th generation outlaw...I'll always strive to live according to the Good Book, but I WONT let others stomp all over me or infringe upon the freedoms I fought overseas to preserve.
Christians are hypocrites, a gun in one hand and a Bible in the other don't fucking go together . Just because one claims to be Christian does not make that SOB automatically good , many evil people hide behind religion. Anyone telling me what their religious belief is without me asking , is trying to convince me they are good .
Hats off to the over the road drivers.. I'm just a local driver home daily and until my daughter tells me she doesn't need me I'll be right here for her!
I'm now 75 and a hard working career and many road miles has whittled me down to size of having to lessen the miles and trips .Still at it .Still love it .Still ride a Harley .Keep it real brothers and sisters .Ride free .
Passed the 68 year marker 5 months back. I don't have any health issues and they didn't get me on any medications and I've still got an attitude ... in a fiery rebuttal via Todd Spencer to the Atlanta Journal Constitution published in the March 2013 issue of Land Line concerning the supposed shortage he asked the question what is the real shortage? He compares truck driving to a job of last resort in a constant race to the bottom !!! After being raped, robbed, plundered and pillaged in the automotive world of body & paint, restoration and building the right cars for the wrong people in "The Winner Loses All" concerning some UST's with PETROLEUM MARKETEERS INCORPORATED when I got in a truck as an O/O I finally got to the bottom of it - and when I'm sitting behind the wheel in my seat this is as close as I want to get to an air-conditioned office job
Rode with my Dad as a kid and teenager! He said he’d kick my ass if I trucked! Spent 33 yrs in the US Air Force flying jets. Retired now, run a W900 log truck. Loving it ! I wish he was alive to see my pride and joy!
keep on truckin my friend! when you hear the deep rumble of the jake as you down shift and she barks and slides, he will be the angle on the stump rooting you on to masher to the floor!
Much respect to all of the owner ops and guys been out there running the roads for many years, myself been 7yrs in and carrying a traditional love for big rigs and stretching the legs! Got my haz about 7 months ago and just got a brand new kw, just polishes the wheels and stainless is bright, I'm hooked and will always be! Florida, Myakka City Merica keep on!
My husband was long haul outlaw for over 20 yrs Unfortunately he died young only 48 21 yrs ago I miss him everyday Keep on truckin y'all In loving memory of Tommy F Lee aka snowman Keep it up y'all
The wolfs are surrounded me they fit of the fear that they see,I’m gonna stay strong now they won’t see that in me, this is a powerful statement for any man’s life.
Whole heartily agree, got to see America when it was truly free! I recall driving over the Hover Dam too. The CB was our only means of communication on the road. "West Bound, you tell me your past and I'll tell you your future, over". A roll of quarters was the only way to contact home or dispatch. Drivers talked to each other at T-Stops over a cup of coffee or a meal. Night driving was often so amazing with the amount of stars that were visible. I was so proud of my chauffeurs license back then, one from Texas, one from Utah and one from California. Worked them like playing cards. My '83 Pete would pull like a freight train, with that V8 Cat and 6x4 with twin counter shafts. I recall a trip through Montana and this "Chicken Hauler" called out on the squawk box, "driver, how fast are you going?" replied, " I am not sure as the speedo only goes to 85 and I past that some time ago", he came back "well I'm clickin' along at 96 and I'm doing everything trying to catch up", "I clicked back " you best lasso a chain on my back side as I'm about to slide her up against the dash into the Big Hole!" "Come On!" With the Bird Dog Hunting, Triple digits were easy back then. "In trucking, 2 wrongs don't make a right, but 3 lefts do!!!"
I’m so happy you were able to check out this video. Thanks for your comment. Thanks for all your service for all those years. It’s a real shame drivers these days don’t help each other out like they used to.

2nd generation driver myself, to say it gets in your blood is an understatement. My dad's been talking about hanging it up but I already know he'll miss it. It's one of those jobs you either absolutely love or you don't last long. There's nothing id rather do to make a dollar than hooking up and heading out in the middle of the night with a full moon and open highways in front of me ❤
Wow this really hits hard. Deep message that only few can comprehend. I am for and with you brottherzs and sisters behind the wheel. Stay STRONG and never give in to abhorrant views of government. 💪USA 🇺🇸
This is the song that introduced me to your channel. I've been listening to your songs when im driving my 4 Wheeler. Its hard to find good tunes now a days
For someone walking in faith, the devil really shows up when your walking with God so much more cause he wants what ya are having and the peacethat it brings
Rollin east across the Canadian prairies in my cabover listening to this and a straight piped 12.7 knowing full well that elog is going to hit zero before I’m done for the day for the fourth time this week
If only enough of us thought this way. I'm not a truck driver but I have a lot of truckers in my family. I'm just the black sheep that skipped states and started my own life. We all as Americans should have this attitude but most are scared of the fight. If any group could do it, it's outlaws and truckers
There are too many rag heads in the industry. Only way we would take America back is if every single truck stopped until we succeeded. We have complete control, everything stops when we stop. But those rag heads don't have a clue what that means. They are busy here for another dollar.
Bas ass . That was all incredible. I went some deep places watching that shit . I liked that close call jumping into that left lane. Never touches the brakes never even let out of it to top it off with a phone in right hand , holding it down with the other .
great song i am a trucker 25 year en proud for it i dirve in nederlands nl en truck is for life on the road in the blood keep on trucking en drive safe jou all
Much respect brother ran outlaw 39 years . Retired from over the road I miss the hell out of it but I sure don't miss the stupid. Keep all 18 on the asphalt brother and stay right.
Wow what a beautiful song man you have a god-given voice and may God bless all the truckers and keep them safe on the highway without them people could not get what they want so they work hard everyday we think each and every one of them God bless you
I use to build road trains trailer's then I went back to bracken in horses in the northern territory and I'm still a rebel without a course if I'm not Rockin I'm rolling I love these music thank you The world is a better place with songs I can roll with cheers
I grew up adapted into a farming, trucking, military family. I came along about the time all the new harsh regulations and broker stuff was starting to get to my family and others who sold out because it actually was costing money on some loads (per my uncle). I totally have no facts to back that up, I was a kid. We haven’t had any long haul OTR trucks since. We kept our personal grain trucks for custom wheat/grain harvest and the hay trucks. We started permanently ending the whole Medium duty hay truck fleet a few years back. With the new Ram 6.7s we just use the duallies because of ease of getting around plus 4x4 and the newer super spunky diesels out perform the old medium duty hay trucks any day. Plus everything we run has farm tag exemptions which these days that helps… (depending on state registered in). So, we simply have to keep them DOT compliant… Which our BIG TRUCKS 2 Kenworths and a Volvo (totally long haul capable with huge sleepers on them for when we don’t want to pay for hotels each night. Those beasts are kept like new because we don’t like being broken down pulling VERY TESTY WIDE LOADs (that some say we must permit and we refuse by getting other GOVERNMENT AGENCIES involved that CREATE A PAPERWORK NIGHTMARE FOR THEM.. I don’t understand when I do see some trucks just dogged out waiting to be pulled over by the next DPS officer. I know they might be struggling, but hang the damn mud flap back on, fix the lights not working and clean it up to be the best you have at the time… We do not want those type problems of being pulled over because once pulled over they can probably find something (even on very young truck) to fine you for. PLUS I do not like pulling on to a farmers property (who is fixing to shell out massive amounts of money) for us custom harvest crops, looking like something out of Deliverance. It’s a damn good feeling to look across a piece of land see our equipment making its own statement. THAT BECOMES obvious WE TAKE PRIDE IN WHAT WE DO… We have to literally run within inches of having to permit every time we move because of the new bigger tires on the newer combines . That starts that very BS that shut everything down the first time.. so far we just point to those farm tags and say deal with the state because according to them we are legal… and it becomes quiet the power struggle because we are in “their” state but due to dept of Agriculture and Commerce they usually find it’s not even worth the time because a ticket is INSTANTLY gonna become a court issue (and we stress that as we hand them our layers card.) I respect them to the point they try and “trap” us… After that I’m pretty much a dick who knows his legal rights AND I DO NOT FKN BACK DOWN! I never got to know the good ole days… we just make ours right now. 😂😖😎
Wicked intriguing mesmerizing--- drive on a life of positioning your soul ,Time is these Things that we must understand another’s thoughts are not where we’ve been, only in our minds eye might one realize these Truths ,oh yes thank you sir for this beautiful wrought piece of yours
I miss those days an nights like I said thank God for the memories of me an my Dad trucking together he's been gone since 1997 I pray that He's hauling Souls to God Now Amen??
Wow ,, beutiful,,I travel the highway a lot in a limo bus from newfoundland to Toronto four time a year with a Harley aboard ,,I love to ride with my friends,ride safe brothers
Wow, this touches me so deeply ❤as a former Trucker in whole Europe, long distance. US is different story and a different feeling especially the distances and this wonderful rigs 🔝🥰🥰🥰
I know the feeling all too well… drove over the road in the 80’s to the early 2000’s, when you could still run like an outlaw. In 2014 I had to get back in a truck. It was a completely different experience than the first time around. E-logs, tracking devices, satellite crap on the truck… I felt stifled and useless… like me being in a truck in this era was a complete waste of an outlaw. In 2020 I lost most of the vision in my right eye when a strap snapped into my eyeball. They took my CDL since I can’t pass the eye exam. Again… a waste of an outlaw.
I started in '87 and have run Kenworth ever since. I have two Kenworths in my yard right now and have been up and down the I-5 corridor so many times I can't count. Been everywhere else too. There are a ton of things you see out there, sometimes only once and they are what makes trucking something to be appreciated. Its a pretty lonely life and a very independent one as well. To the true truckers there is a comradery that isn't felt in any other workplace. Long live the trucker and his absolute importance to every one of us.
My dearest friend, making a rough living on the road. It's about broken him the miles they think a person can run! N want more. He's my Outlaw. Wallsmasher. Ya out there? Hang tough warrior, there's better days ahead . Choices my man, choices.
@@wizzard3512 yea but taking a toll on his heart n health just ain't worth it anymore at his age. The biss can send them young guys to do those runs n push them harder!
Great photography along with a bluesy outlaw country song. Btw...if you've driven the interstates you've seen the rigs parked at night with the drivers sleeping in their rigs. It's a hard life.
Such beautiful machines. And this song resignates with me hard as i have been through so much the past year after the sudden loss of my old man. Im from perth western australia and my dream retirment is to sell up everything, house, steel bumper aussie muscle car, sell it all and buy a 90s peterbuilt truck with a long haul cab and out the back instead of a hitch 2 slots for a couple of harlys. Then just cruise my way all around australia 👍
your an amazing content creator my friend i watch your videos every day out there on the road the message you convey in the videos you put out is so strong to those who are out there really living it the pain and the pleasure resonates man god bless i can only hope to see you out there one of these days all these roads you drive in these videos i do too.
without truckers what do you have i can tell you nothing we bring everything and we ask for nothing in return. when cov19 broke out i put my life on the line so others had what they needed . were unpaid and get very little respect for what we do. we run the country.
Parabéns por edificar o seu país, por perder tempo precioso com a família, sabendo que também é em prol deles. Sou brasileiro e aqui a violência está de mais contra os caminhoneiros, aqui no Rio de janeiro sequestram caminhões guincho e pedem resgate pelo carro, e as autoridades não fazem nada. Em um evento que fizeram pra chamar atenção, a polícia estadual veio fotografar as placas dos manifestantes pacíficos e levou eles pra delegacia.
Im now 65, and I took an oath in my younger years to protect and defend this great nation. It is up to us to teach theyoungerr ones that need to be like us
I've been driving some sort of truck since 1979 and I love it still and make tons of money and I drive even though I'm old as shit 500 plus miles average a day Never will I complain because I know I'm one of the most important that keeps America happy
I'm so sick of this career anymore, I ain't about to give in and quit though. We're judged by the Flip flop Mafia and the steering wheel holder's that the industry has created schools that basically put anyone in a truck. I'm proud to be an old school driver, raised up by old school ways. But I'm ashamed of the industry anymore.
Curiosity tell me the changes, my daddy was a trucker his whole life up until he retired. As a kid I wanted to be and admired truckers. The old school ones that is. I 46 now and don't see truckers hardly anymore.
This is brilliant and beautiful beyond my possible description and I'm an extremely expressive person with a wide vocabulary. This is indeed about big rigs and the open road. But this is also about how strong and unbreakable a healthy human being is no matter what levels of guilt, fear, blame, shame... And anything of the sort... Are dumped on someone. By people who are convinced that they "know best." Who are often the closest people in the emotional sphere of a person's life. I've never (yet) had a CDL. But in a beautiful coincidence that's no coincidence, two days ago I swapped a vintage motorcycle for a vintage Diamond Reo big rig. The hand of God does infinitely wonderful things when stupid humans don't try to be withering control freaks over loved ones. Or, if necessary, the person who's at the target end of the bartering rams of control freakery, torches the bridge (metaphorically, of course, no actual violence in any way wanted or needed) to leave the control freaks behind. The people who created any part of the art that is this song and video deserve galactic-scale kudos and thank yous!
Love it man my two oldest best friends were long-time truckers. Good ol 379 and kw900. Starting in the 70s at 19. I would love to be a gear jammer, but this heart and being born in the 90s rules rules rules. God bless, man. Keep that 10-10 in the wind and keep an ear out for KIDD KOKUS on that squelch box.
Stunning Creed absolutely your best work I have heard yet. Thank you and the visuals damn it made me miss it for a minute 25 years pulling freight across all 48 and parts of canada started with a training company in 1989 got to O.O. leased to a small outfit in the Midwest said enough in 2003 but then climbed back in a couple years later hauling water in an old thermos bottle for cattle on a huge ranch off road in an old army 5 ton 6x tractor some curves so tight had to stop half way and put the trailer into the dirt on the inside and the steer tires just on the outside edge of a drop off in low 1 door open lookin for it to give,wasnt a big drop but boss wouldnt of liked me dumping the old girl over! ended up with the outside duals hanging in space. That was fun shit! Not a road just a cow path lol.
I'm just the passenger princess out here but this hits hard . I love this ..only been out here 8 years but things are different from the stories my dad would tell me he was a driver for 40 years
Creed fisher. One hell of a song. Brokers did what the government couldn’t. Killed trucking for any small carrier or two truck show running the spot market. Until we come together we won’t ever win.
After 30 years on the road I'm proud to say
I got to Truck America when America was truly Free 1970's 80's & 90's was the greatest Truckin days of all time, We got go across Hover Dam we got to Truck over 100 Mph with no fear of jail
We partied anytime we wanted, Truckin or Parked up, We did it our way and we done it right, Back when you could recognize a Trucker by the way he dressed, Those days are gone forever in the past, The True Profesional Trucker very few are left. ❤
My dad said those days are gone, as well. He also got out of it after about 30 years.

Thank you!!!

Wow so true! Brother keep it up, been trucking for 35 yrs and have 40 trucks and we are all tired of the brokers getting Rich off is! Should be against the law.

He compares truck driving to a job of last resort in a constant race to the bottom !!! After being raped, robbed, plundered and pillaged in the automotive world of body & paint, restoration and building the right cars for the wrong people in "The Winner Loses All" concerning some UST's with PETROLEUM MARKETEERS INCORPORATED when I got in a truck as an O/O I finally got to the bottom of it - and when I'm sitting behind the wheel in my seat this is as close as I want to get to an air-conditioned office job
Rode with my Dad as a kid and teenager!
He said he’d kick my ass if I trucked!
Spent 33 yrs in the US Air Force flying jets.
Retired now, run a W900 log truck.
Loving it ! I wish he was alive to see my pride and joy!
keep on truckin my friend! when you hear the deep rumble of the jake as you down shift and she barks and slides, he will be the angle on the stump rooting you on to masher to the floor!
Much respect to all of the owner ops and guys been out there running the roads for many years, myself been 7yrs in and carrying a traditional love for big rigs and stretching the legs! Got my haz about 7 months ago and just got a brand new kw, just polishes the wheels and stainless is bright, I'm hooked and will always be! Florida, Myakka City Merica keep on!
I still run pre emissions no e log. On my third marriage. My true love is the road...
My husband was long haul outlaw for over 20 yrs
Unfortunately he died young only 48
21 yrs ago I miss him everyday
Keep on truckin y'all
In loving memory of Tommy F Lee aka snowman
Keep it up y'all
The wolfs are surrounded me they fit of the fear that they see,I’m gonna stay strong now they won’t see that in me, this is a powerful statement for any man’s life.
This is one of the best songs ever written AMEN HALLELUJAH
Whole heartily agree, got to see America when it was truly free! I recall driving over the Hover Dam too. The CB was our only means of communication on the road. "West Bound, you tell me your past and I'll tell you your future, over". A roll of quarters was the only way to contact home or dispatch. Drivers talked to each other at T-Stops over a cup of coffee or a meal. Night driving was often so amazing with the amount of stars that were visible. I was so proud of my chauffeurs license back then, one from Texas, one from Utah and one from California. Worked them like playing cards.
My '83 Pete would pull like a freight train, with that V8 Cat and 6x4 with twin counter shafts. I recall a trip through Montana and this "Chicken Hauler" called out on the squawk box, "driver, how fast are you going?" replied, " I am not sure as the speedo only goes to 85 and I past that some time ago", he came back "well I'm clickin' along at 96 and I'm doing everything trying to catch up", "I clicked back " you best lasso a chain on my back side as I'm about to slide her up against the dash into the Big Hole!" "Come On!" With the Bird Dog Hunting, Triple digits were easy back then.
"In trucking, 2 wrongs don't make a right, but 3 lefts do!!!"
I’m so happy you were able to check out this video. Thanks for your comment. Thanks for all your service for all those years. It’s a real shame drivers these days don’t help each other out like they used to.

I used to love riding in these things. Best way to see this beautiful country.
Sitting behind the wheel of a large car w900 king of the road twin turbos cat peal white 13 speed out of Phoenix up out valley of the sun 80 k load maintain 60 up to flats of flag east bound to ABQ what a truck thanks driver great content
Had a good engine!
Cool feeling pulling the grades north of Phx...letter rip !!!
2nd generation driver myself, to say it gets in your blood is an understatement. My dad's been talking about hanging it up but I already know he'll miss it. It's one of those jobs you either absolutely love or you don't last long. There's nothing id rather do to make a dollar than hooking up and heading out in the middle of the night with a full moon and open highways in front of me ❤
I honestly don't know how y'all do it. That road life is definitely not for me. I have all the respect for you guys! Thank You for doin' what you do.
Wow this really hits hard. Deep message that only few can comprehend. I am for and with you brottherzs and sisters behind the wheel. Stay STRONG and never give in to abhorrant views of government. 💪USA 🇺🇸
This is the song that introduced me to your channel. I've been listening to your songs when im driving my 4 Wheeler. Its hard to find good tunes now a days
Damn! This brings back "the old" truckin feeling... DAMN GOOD TUNE!
Was a Great Life,so sad how Trucking and Truck Drivers have changed...
Nice hood.
For someone walking in faith, the devil really shows up when your walking with God so much more cause he wants what ya are having and the peacethat it brings
Very good song I would definitely play the song at a bar just sitting and relax and drinking a beer
Rollin east across the Canadian prairies in my cabover listening to this and a straight piped 12.7 knowing full well that elog is going to hit zero before I’m done for the day for the fourth time this week
We don’t have to live this way, we don’t have to watch our heritage and way of life destroyed. Take America back from the politicians.
If only enough of us thought this way. I'm not a truck driver but I have a lot of truckers in my family. I'm just the black sheep that skipped states and started my own life. We all as Americans should have this attitude but most are scared of the fight. If any group could do it, it's outlaws and truckers
I live for my white race
FUCK THE POLITICIANS. THIS IS OUR COUNTRY, NOT THEIRS. THEY SERVE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Got to communicate. Need a page to connect everyone in the movement @@brianj5261
There are too many rag heads in the industry. Only way we would take America back is if every single truck stopped until we succeeded. We have complete control, everything stops when we stop. But those rag heads don't have a clue what that means. They are busy here for another dollar.
been a long road retired now. great song. love the old school paint on the Kenworth.
Bas ass . That was all incredible. I went some deep places watching that shit . I liked that close call jumping into that left lane. Never touches the brakes never even let out of it to top it off with a phone in right hand , holding it down with the other .
Heck ya keep on rolling out there!!! My respects may you all take care out on the road 🛣️ were a rare breed that for sure love this music
Wow after 33 years, I hear this. I can't believe it. Thank you, someone understands.
great song i am a trucker 25 year en proud for it
i dirve in nederlands nl en truck is for life on the road in the blood

I miss the days and ways of a chicken hauling largecar. These new trucks and our world has changed.
Whoop whoop
Definitely Sir, We got to Live the real Truckers life for sure, We are the only True Outlaw Truckers.

RIGHT ON SONG 🎵 💯🥊THANK YOU ☝️ GODBLESSESYOU 📖💜💪☝️
I grew up adapted into a farming, trucking, military family.
I came along about the time all the new harsh regulations and broker stuff was starting to get to my family and others who sold out because it actually was costing money on some loads (per my uncle). I totally have no facts to back that up, I was a kid. We haven’t had any long haul OTR trucks since.
We kept our personal grain trucks for custom wheat/grain harvest and the hay trucks. We started permanently ending the whole Medium duty hay truck fleet a few years back. With the new Ram 6.7s we just use the duallies because of ease of getting around plus 4x4 and the newer super spunky diesels out perform the old medium duty hay trucks any day.
Plus everything we run has farm tag exemptions which these days that helps… (depending on state registered in). So, we simply have to keep them DOT compliant… Which our BIG TRUCKS 2 Kenworths and a Volvo (totally long haul capable with huge sleepers on them for when we don’t want to pay for hotels each night.
Those beasts are kept like new because we don’t like being broken down pulling VERY TESTY WIDE LOADs (that some say we must permit and we refuse by getting other GOVERNMENT AGENCIES involved that CREATE A PAPERWORK NIGHTMARE FOR THEM..
I don’t understand when I do see some trucks just dogged out waiting to be pulled over by the next DPS officer. I know they might be struggling, but hang the damn mud flap back on, fix the lights not working and clean it up to be the best you have at the time…
We do not want those type problems of being pulled over because once pulled over they can probably find something (even on very young truck) to fine you for. PLUS I do not like pulling on to a farmers property (who is fixing to shell out massive amounts of money) for us custom harvest crops, looking like something out of Deliverance.
It’s a damn good feeling to look across a piece of land see our equipment making its own statement. THAT BECOMES obvious WE TAKE PRIDE IN WHAT WE DO…
We have to literally run within inches of having to permit every time we move because of the new bigger tires on the newer combines .
That starts that very BS that shut everything down the first time.. so far we just point to those farm tags and say deal with the state because according to them we are legal… and it becomes quiet the power struggle because we are in “their” state but due to dept of Agriculture and Commerce they usually find it’s not even worth the time because a ticket is INSTANTLY gonna become a court issue (and we stress that as we hand them our layers card.)
I respect them to the point they try and “trap” us… After that I’m pretty much a dick who knows his legal rights AND I DO NOT FKN BACK DOWN!
I never got to know the good ole days… we just make ours right now. 😂😖😎
I drove tired iron for over 20 years and hands down this is me and my dawg whos gone now! Rip lynwood
Good song. I miss those days
Wicked intriguing mesmerizing--- drive on a life of positioning your soul ,Time is these Things that we must understand another’s thoughts are not where we’ve been, only in our minds eye might one realize these Truths ,oh yes thank you sir for this beautiful wrought piece of yours
If I didn't know better, sure looks like a Western distributor transportation truck. This video takes me back. Love it!
Easy enough to play on guitar. I keep getting misty-eyed and choked up trying to sing those words tho. 💙
I miss those days an nights like I said thank God for the memories of me an my Dad trucking together he's been gone since 1997 I pray that He's hauling Souls to God Now Amen??
I'ma a trucker. Yes I'm female. Yes I'm good at it. Yess I fkn love this song. Nothing could express my feelings better. Thank you for this. 🔥
Wow ,, beutiful,,I travel the highway a lot in a limo bus from newfoundland to Toronto four time a year with a Harley aboard ,,I love to ride with my friends,ride safe brothers
Wow, this touches me so deeply ❤as a former Trucker in whole Europe, long distance.
US is different story and a different feeling especially the distances and this wonderful rigs 🔝🥰🥰🥰
What a song!! Hits right in the chest. Why is it not on Spotify!
I know the feeling all too well… drove over the road in the 80’s to the early 2000’s, when you could still run like an outlaw. In 2014 I had to get back in a truck. It was a completely different experience than the first time around. E-logs, tracking devices, satellite crap on the truck… I felt stifled and useless… like me being in a truck in this era was a complete waste of an outlaw. In 2020 I lost most of the vision in my right eye when a strap snapped into my eyeball. They took my CDL since I can’t pass the eye exam. Again… a waste of an outlaw.
Really no words. Just gray memories as I listen
Great song, keep on rolling!
I started in '87 and have run Kenworth ever since. I have two Kenworths in my yard right now and have been up and down the I-5 corridor so many times I can't count. Been everywhere else too. There are a ton of things you see out there, sometimes only once and they are what makes trucking something to be appreciated. Its a pretty lonely life and a very independent one as well. To the true truckers there is a comradery that isn't felt in any other workplace.
Long live the trucker and his absolute importance to every one of us.
My dearest friend, making a rough living on the road. It's about broken him the miles they think a person can run! N want more. He's my Outlaw. Wallsmasher. Ya out there? Hang tough warrior, there's better days ahead . Choices my man, choices.
Hey I know that guy!! Yeah he's doin 3500 to 4500 weekly! I'm sure he's makin fat stacks tho
@@wizzard3512 yea but taking a toll on his heart n health just ain't worth it anymore at his age. The biss can send them young guys to do those runs n push them harder!
The rumble stripping intro is perfect for this awesome tune!
Wow this song was amazing and very beautiful song ❤️ it touch my heart ❤️💕
I drove truck for many years and truckers are the ❤of America 😊
Dude this is absolutely awesome love this stuff totally bad ass. Rock on my friends.
Gives them something to talk about.. I've seen all these places and more...Stay blessed
Loving this brother ,these are facts .
Great photography along with a bluesy outlaw country song. Btw...if you've driven the interstates you've seen the rigs parked at night with the drivers sleeping in their rigs. It's a hard life.
Such beautiful machines. And this song resignates with me hard as i have been through so much the past year after the sudden loss of my old man.
Im from perth western australia and my dream retirment is to sell up everything, house, steel bumper aussie muscle car, sell it all and buy a 90s peterbuilt truck with a long haul cab and out the back instead of a hitch 2 slots for a couple of harlys. Then just cruise my way all around australia 👍
Great fan of American music. They gave the world so much. thx 👍🙏
your an amazing content creator my friend i watch your videos every day out there on the road
the message you convey in the videos you put out is so strong to those who are out there really living it
the pain and the pleasure resonates man god bless i can only hope to see you out there one of these days
all these roads you drive in these videos i do too.
without truckers what do you have i can tell you nothing we bring everything and we ask for nothing in return. when cov19 broke out i put my life on the line so others had what they needed . were unpaid and get very little respect for what we do. we run the country.
Parabéns por edificar o seu país, por perder tempo precioso com a família, sabendo que também é em prol deles.
Sou brasileiro e aqui a violência está de mais contra os caminhoneiros, aqui no Rio de janeiro sequestram caminhões guincho e pedem resgate pelo carro, e as autoridades não fazem nada.
Em um evento que fizeram pra chamar atenção, a polícia estadual veio fotografar as placas dos manifestantes pacíficos e levou eles pra delegacia.
man i know that sign i used to go to mount shasta and yreka all the time when i lived in cali
You said it! Keep on keeping on! Praying!
Im now 65, and I took an oath in my younger years to protect and defend this great nation. It is up to us to teach theyoungerr ones that need to be like us
Hopefully there will be a nation left after the destruction that's been put upon this great nation...
I've been driving some sort of truck since 1979 and I love it still and make tons of money and I drive even though I'm old as shit 500 plus miles average a day Never will I complain because I know I'm one of the most important that keeps America happy
🎉so true brother peace love and harmony ✌️🤘🤙
I'm so sick of this career anymore, I ain't about to give in and quit though.
We're judged by the Flip flop Mafia and the steering wheel holder's that the industry has created schools that basically put anyone in a truck.
I'm proud to be an old school driver, raised up by old school ways.
But I'm ashamed of the industry anymore.
Update 6/22/24
Same bullshit, different day
I can't quit, it's all I know
Curiosity tell me the changes, my daddy was a trucker his whole life up until he retired. As a kid I wanted to be and admired truckers. The old school ones that is. I 46 now and don't see truckers hardly anymore.
@lukesutton7891 none of us check on each other to help,,elogs have made every driver get what they can
AWESOME!!!! And as always ……. Much Respect 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This is brilliant and beautiful beyond my possible description and I'm an extremely expressive person with a wide vocabulary. This is indeed about big rigs and the open road. But this is also about how strong and unbreakable a healthy human being is no matter what levels of guilt, fear, blame, shame... And anything of the sort... Are dumped on someone. By people who are convinced that they "know best." Who are often the closest people in the emotional sphere of a person's life. I've never (yet) had a CDL. But in a beautiful coincidence that's no coincidence, two days ago I swapped a vintage motorcycle for a vintage Diamond Reo big rig. The hand of God does infinitely wonderful things when stupid humans don't try to be withering control freaks over loved ones. Or, if necessary, the person who's at the target end of the bartering rams of control freakery, torches the bridge (metaphorically, of course, no actual violence in any way wanted or needed) to leave the control freaks behind. The people who created any part of the art that is this song and video deserve galactic-scale kudos and thank yous!
DRIVE ON🎸🇺🇲🎸🤘 I love the USA 🇺🇲 and all the long highways.
Greetings from Germany🇩🇪
Without trucks we got shit! Call my father in law lunch meat. When he leaves I say keep it between the mayonnaise and the mustard
If Metallica was country
Nice.
Love it man my two oldest best friends were long-time truckers. Good ol 379 and kw900. Starting in the 70s at 19. I would love to be a gear jammer, but this heart and being born in the 90s rules rules rules. God bless, man. Keep that 10-10 in the wind and keep an ear out for KIDD KOKUS on that squelch box.
Without our truckers this economy will crumble. I appreciate you all. Keep trucking!
It’s already crumbling under Biden so I’ll correct your statement
Great Vocals, lyrics and a great video!
Bro wow just wow holy crap I fucking love it trucking for 6 years I love every min of it keep it up
I'm a veteran at yet another crossroads in my life. I can't quit I have a wife and to youngens. Gotta keep going. 38 now
hate the e logs got to keep the old school logbook alive!!!
Ya need to buy a 99 or older. Paper baby paper.
@scottyberry- I believe it was 2000 but I might be wrong
I'm for going back to the 8/10 rule days.
Stunning Creed absolutely your best work I have heard yet. Thank you and the visuals damn it made me miss it for a minute 25 years pulling freight across all 48 and parts of canada started with a training company in 1989 got to O.O. leased to a small outfit in the Midwest said enough in 2003 but then climbed back in a couple years later hauling water in an old thermos bottle for cattle on a huge ranch off road in an old army 5 ton 6x tractor some curves so tight had to stop half way and put the trailer into the dirt on the inside and the steer tires just on the outside edge of a drop off in low 1 door open lookin for it to give,wasnt a big drop but boss wouldnt of liked me dumping the old girl over! ended up with the outside duals hanging in space. That was fun shit! Not a road just a cow path lol.
ITS MAAM!
I'm just the passenger princess out here but this hits hard . I love this ..only been out here 8 years but things are different from the stories my dad would tell me he was a driver for 40 years
Creed fisher. One hell of a song. Brokers did what the government couldn’t. Killed trucking for any small carrier or two truck show running the spot market. Until we come together we won’t ever win.
