- This journey starts out during a heavy snow storm in Owensboro Kentucky before the driver even gets on the snow packed roads. Lots to see in this film including a CRST truck jack-knife at the fuel island of a truck stop almost causing lots of damage. The trucker ends up in Fontana California after making it all the way across the country in this action packed trucking adventure.

Prayers for you my friend 🙏🏼
When I started trucking a enjoyed all his video too. Now I've got brave enough to start my own trucker videos. I'm still learning the whole creating a story thing. Our TH-cam channel is " Million Mile Millie"
I wish i was with you to give you a big hug of support Steve. I cannot imagine your feelings now. I know she was a beautiful person in so many ways with how you were so loving of her whenever you referred to her. God bless you.
Excellent video. I dont think that i will ever get to the States but Jack has taken me there through his videos. I am aware that he is no longer trucking and had taken an office job. What an awesome truck- OLD RED.
Let the good times roll, one off your best old movies.
Love your road movies Jack, you should go back to do this.
Keep the reruns coming I’ll watch them again.
Thnx for the video!! Its like old times!! Lol ... I guess I'd forgotten how well I like the road aspect of your channel. Lots of memories for me of years past .... Liberal, KS, seeing a National Carriers truck .... I came very near purchasing a new truck and signing on with them years ago until, talking to one of their drivers in a truck stop restaurant one day, he mentioned they operate (or did operate at that time) forced dispatch. And they do A LOT of New York City!!! Their policy was, they dispatch you to New York City, you GO to New York City! Lol .... In summary, I didn't buy and lease to National Carriers. Thank you for the video ... I sure do miss riding along.
Only just found your channel and really enjoying your adventures.I live in the uk and a retired truck driver ,and my word I really do miss it,Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
someone that might come close is riding with Dave, only one to satisfy proper trucking vlogs for me since years ago with Jack
I can honestly say I miss your trucking videos ☹
Jack... thanks for a “best of” video. Always one of my favorites.
I would like to say thank you for sharing your experience with us.
I like the one thinking it was New Years & Jack ran into high winds & Hurricane. With lighting show.
Merry Christmas Jack, so good for you to share this. (Just saying... you seemed real happy in that work.) Thanks for including us in whatever you do!
Great, past adventure Jack. Thank you for dusting that video off and sharing it once again. Very enjoyable trip!
i think this is the last video i watched of your adventures, man i miss it still 2+ years now
Back in the late 70's, early 80's, I use to bring all kinds of goodies to the warehouse guys at L.A Cold Storage and would get in and out of there in less than an hour every time. Pretty much the same at most Arctic Cold Storage warehouses. Beef, seafood, donuts, you name it. And catch a nap in the bunk and they'd come and wake ya up when you were loaded. Good ole days.
Thanks Jack gotta love winter weather keep on trucking
Just like the old days
The Drive of Recovery - Way To Go CRST! Looks like the trailer skidded when trying to maneuver in for fuelup. Any way, Good job on your recovery. Happy Trucking.
Got there still 7 am but receivers said it should of been 7 pm !!!
Then you wait for some trailer to arrive & the driver is 24 hrs late.
And snow / icy roads ...
No fuel for 200 miles....
And these are the good things about trucking....
Indiana you check your mirrors too often...ya ya ya I know safety & all that jazz but it's hard on your neck.
Just check each mirror once & then floor it & drive your rig as you would a VW bug.
Check mirrors only 6-7 hrs later when ya back your trailer at a truck stop for the night.
.......hope all is well ... your videos & your stories or explanations are always so interesting & topped with either frustration or comedy. God bless you now and always.
You were in my hometown at the beginning of the video! Owensboro, KY. I drive locally here hauling fuel.
One for the “Big O”!
Good to see another video of your. Thanks for sharing
Good memories of old, miss your adventures when you were trucking. Have a safe and Merry Christmas from down under Jack!.🇳🇿
Brother...this road trip brought back some painful memories! Outside of Dalhart, TX (about halfway to the NM border, the rear seal on the transmission failed, dumped the oil and froze up the transmission. It cost me $1500 to get that Volvo towed to Amarillo. It was going to cost me $11k to get that transmission replaced and the truck was worth about $15K. An independent shop that the service manager knew offered me $4K and I walked away from the truck. Put me out of business. I was burned out but had hoped to sell it. Didn't work out. Yeah, I know that road well.
Back down memory lane love it don't miss it Happy holidays trucking that is
You made my day, Jack. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Love the reruns :)
Very nice new old one loved watching this one again thnx.
Thanks for the old video. Enjoy your stuff no matter what. Keep up the good work.
I miss these videos.
Merry Christmas Jack from Cleveland Tennessee
Thanks Jack for the "Oldie but Goodie"
I used to load 'Swingin' Meat' @ National before they went to mostly 'Boxed" - Good memories.
Merry Christmas & a good New Year...
Steve / W5BIB
I love this episode. It's a republish of the original. Was that just so folks don't have to dig through old videos? Regardless, I've had this one bookmarked for a while as it was well done.
I love taking hwy 54. We go that route from wi to socal 👍👍
You make great job guys and have a good trip. Thanks form Canada.
Makes me want to get back in trucking . Well almost.
Russell Rogers i know the feeling
Great video work.
So you were Young and Handsome at some point. 👍 😬 Thanks for sharing, Jack.
Jack you should make a “oldies series” and reupload all your old but good videos I would watch them again for sure
Yes I loved the big truck that came to pick him up as an uber driver it was so funny.
just like Jack Oldies
Merry Christmas Jack. And keep the shiney side up.
Enjoyed the old film Jack.
I decided to Subscribe to your channel I enjoy The content seem honest and a lot of information and at times you're funny.
hey Jack, I really enjoy watching all your videos, Merry Christmas from Hamilton, Ontario Canada.
Merry Christmas Jack and best wishes for the New Year !
I remember watching this video 4 years ago, my wetbrain (from boozing for 38 years, love to drink) hadn't fully kicked in yet!!!
Didn't you upload this last year? i remember the truck jackknifing then
Leads The Fallen Vlogs well yeah as he’s not driving these days
This video is now 4 years old guys, it was good one tho
I think the same. I saw this video. It's not a new one.
Yeah thought I seen it a few years ago. Watched it before I started truck driving lol
You can see it's a Knight truck...
As Yogi Berra said, "It's deja vu all over again!"
HI JACK NICE TO SEE THE OPEN ROAD VIDEOS , SOME OF MY COMPANIES TRUCKS UP HERE IN CANADA HAD THERMAL AUTOMATIC START UP YOU CAN SET THE TEMPERATURE YOU WANT IT TO STAY AT LIKE 25 F IT WILL RUN IFTHE TEMPERATURE DROPS AT ANY TIME , BUT IT SCARED SOME OF OUR SECURITY GARDS ON WEEKENDS ,
Jack had us in his time machine today.
Rumor has it, the Volvo is still building air pressure
When i was driving. I always left my truck running. Cause it's a pain in the ass to start when it's cold. The coldest i ever dealt with was like 3 degree's in New York and it was bad blizzard. And i was coming back to the West part of the United State's. Boss Lady and Wife was like how bad is it. And i called Wife on Video Messenger on Facebook. And both was like holy crap. Lucky i was next to the truck stop. And the door was like 5 second's to get in. And lucky i have key less entry to get in my truck. It was like a blizzard bad. And i woke up like 8 hour's later. And they had like 7 inch's of snow. And i stayed there for 2 day's. And lucky the Truck Stop had a game room shower's. And i could access there WiFi and watch movie's online. Lucky i can pin my cellphone to my X-Box One and watch movies on it. That is when i was driving before the Wife sent me a pic of the last payment to finally own our house from renting it to own. I said Daddy's coming back home. The kid's was happy seeing me back the truck up. I drive locally now. And sometimes i will drive like a day load. And the Wife will ride with me. And yes hater's the kid's are old enough to stay home.
Beautiful history.
Trucking across the country on icy roads during blizzards is dangerous. You're brave and good trucker.
Was great to see you and red back together in a old video. Havent seen that one I think. Got any more? Sure miss you on the road but you have to think of your health
Good seeing Old Red.
All of this snow is in California wow that is a shocker to see California get that much snow
I did notice a few little things from his video, I guess they don't open up the hood to often on these trucks. Fresh snow on the hood and windshield and he started the truck no sense now and I'm not sure he can get breakfast at 2:54 am at the Sleep Inn they usually don't serve breakfast before 6 if it's a week day and that guy with the small spreader trying to deice the parking lot well I'll give it to Jack he's a joke an a half. And I will take snow anytime to freezing rain
my mom and dad were going to drive for CRST.
that must be hard on trailers when they turn so sharp the wheels on the trailer start to turn backwards query
is a smoke tarp not a nice solution? happy new year for you and your family
I thought you were done with driving and was a safety director at a truck yard?
This is an old one. I’ve already seen it.
jack are you a fill in driver or back on the road
haha i love this guy
Are you working for knight transport trucking company
There are drivers who don't want to put out the effort, but they are the first to complain about everything
Hey man are you back to trucking or is this just some old footage that you put together
Wait.. this isn't new... I saw this video last week or the week before. I recall that CRT jack-knifed with the 'walk of shame' note you had added. lol. Did you re-edit it or what?
Is that a knight truck?
I live in Minnesota, and more snow than that slid off my roof last night.
When did you retire Jack.
Hi
Confidence killer
Read on another site Jack has passed away.
I have seen that 1312 posted on another video but nobody will confirm if this is true or not. I am hoping that Jack is still ok.
Sir Indiana Jack !!! Doesn't that ""SWEDE"" have an auto start switch on the dash that you push when the temps are down to start the motor when the Battery Voltage drops ??? On International Units,,you had to set it b/4 the computer went to sleep for the motor otherwise it won't work !!! LOOK at the Manual or TH-cam It !!!!
Your old video jack?
Dont they have glow plugs anymore
Food is the fuel of life. I iove it.
I wonder if that CRST driver was ever identified. It would be hilarious to hear from him. Just for shits and giggles.
Did you go back to driving or is this just a trip to California and back to GA. ?
Years old, jack. But fun to watch.
IS YOUR TRUCK MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC....
Great work, thanks for sharing video. Subscribe to your channel
Has jack quit driving
Yes, since October 2018
How are you making a living nowadays
Is this a replay??
Yes, I am going through and re-editing some of the old ones since I have more time now and better software.
thxs bro i'm looking to drive as my retirement job
That's what WRONG with trucking. The older guys want to go trucking after retirement. If you only had a CLUE of what you're in for, you'd RUN the other way. Trucking is NOT a job for retired people. Be prepared to stay away from home for WEEKS at a time. Showering in filthy truckstops, sitting for DAYS at a time with NO LOADS...... Trucking companies like WERNER will train you for about six week (without you going home) and if you decide trucking is not for you, then you own WERNER about $6,000 for the training and if you think they won't SUE you for the money, just try it. It's a world you know nothing about.
So if a driver is late with a trailer by 24hrs like this guy was, can you go back to that company and get some form of payment? Now you are going to be 24hrs late and look bad.
👍
Hello there Jack I Liked your beautiful red Truck that you are driving I would like to ask you if someone asks if they can get a ride in your truck just to do a little bit of work like to hook up the trailer and unhooked the trailer when ever you have to pickup or dropped off let me know please from Harold Smith
