Thank you for watching

The sound of pre emissions engine is beautiful. Music to my ears.
That's how an owner operator shifts and threats the throttle with love
Nicest sounding truck I've heard in a long time.
Nice trip in Mexico the toll roads are recommended. Safer and not controled by the cartels. When we come up into Texas we cross at the Columbia International bridge. Adds an hour to the trip but we don't have to wait in line long, and we avoid the city.
OK Kurt you got our attention by taking Iowa Pork blood to Mexico ..... as a former journalist I love your title teasers! Maybe you hit a few porkers, threw them in the truck and off to Mexico you go! Have a fun trip .. .. ..vaya con dios.
Lol I just write down whats going on. Iowa pork goes to Mexico and I finally washed the blood off. Thank you for watching.
Thanks. I am from Topeka. I am also a subscriber. I appreciate your videos because my husband is a local trucker. He can’t have anyone else in the truck. So this give me an idea what he goes through. Again thanks. And wish you and your family well this holiday.
Your welcome. And thank the hubby for handling that traffic every day.
I delivered and picked up in Laredo many times. The first or second time, can't remember exactly, was just about time to get home for Thanksgiving. The company I drove for was supposed to have me a load home in time. For some reason there was no load and no empty trailers. What they told me while I was in Laredo would have put me home 2 days after Thanksgiving. I kindly told my dispatcher that he was going to get me home or I was bobtailing to the yard, greasing my truck down with Vaseline, and then driving it straight up his hind parts. Only not censored LOL. Had me a load within an hour. The good old times.
Lol
Great idea taking the toll road, and avoiding the DOT cops in a bad mood. There are LOTS of them around. I knew a driver that was issued a violation when they asked her how many log books she had. She replied, "Just one, of course". Wrong answer! Any truck running e-logs must also have a paper log as a backup, when the e-log is down. She had the paper log as a backup, but because she answered the way she did, they nailed her.
Ouch
The sound of that turbo never gets old. I had mine blow up once. The dash jumped up like a grenade went off. Fully loaded could hardly even get going without it.
Wow
The shot of latching on to the kingpin was pretty creative. If you run the Kansas Turnpike on the way home hopefully it will be in the daylight . The drive through the Flint Hills is one of my favorites. You feel like you’re sailing across a sea of grass. Also stop at the Matfield Green Stop and check out the Knute Rockne display.
It is beautiful. Hopefully its not covered in snow when we come back through.
I get pulled over so much with the little company I drive for. Adds a hour and a half easy every time. But they won’t pull over the Honda Civic with no brake lights.
Or the moron pulling a pre-Christ era horse trailer with no lights. That pisses me right off. That’s the one thing here in Montana, not many people seem to care about trailer lights. Ugh.
Big Holli, that's because they know that a truck driver 1000 miles away from home isn't going to go to court to fight the ticket, but the Honda Civic will.
OPIE has excellent night vision, your just being an over protective dad 😀
Hi, Kurt & Opie. Thank you for a great video. Keep safe & keep on trucking. I am glad that you washed 'First Class' Please say hi to all the family from us both in Dublin, Ireland
Will do
Passed me while I was sleeping at the Roadys/Tesoro about 2 exits south of where you stopped at the casino for Opie. Wilkins chrome shop is the spot. No so much the biggest selection but great people and like you mentioned....the old iron is cool to look at even if it isn't restored yet. Safe trip to Laredo.
Thank you and your right about the chrome shop. Not a big selection but it comes with add ons lol.
I love how your videos show the peacefulness in driving.Unfortunately people dont know all the pressures a driver has.Such as all the responsibilities us drivers have since the minute you get on that truck.From checking the equiptment to logs,paper work,layovers,getting the load on time regardless the break downs,traffic,hardly any sleep,poor eating habits and the weather getting in the way ect...Not to mention trying to keep the equiptment up to par for D.O.T.Gosh i miss those days.lol.Stay healthy Mr Schmidt.
Thank you for the kind words
Happy you are coming South instead of N.E. That Cat sounds great. I have never been to Mexico in a truck but agree with you about the weigh stations. To much gov't.
nice vid.. lotta good camera angles... @ 00:35, a EXCELLENT example of why you do a tug test... saw a guy drivin' for a local beer warehouse at a stop light his trailer came loose, dropped on the tractor frame... lucky that happened at a stop light and not down the freeway
Sure is. Always gotta watch that darn pin.
hey Kurt Kim from Perth Australia thank you for your words on being calm something IM not that good at but watching you going though the same bs I do has help me by watching your great video thanks again keep safe out there
Thanks much appreciated
We live just north but grown up here all my life. I'm glad to finally have a good truck stop here in Topeka again! Good vids!!
It is nice, and thank you
It can be very frustrating dealing with all the variables in the meat packing industry, or refer freight in general. I couldn't handle it anymore, you're a better man than I am.
When you talked about the 4 hour traffic jam in Austin....that's another reason I'm not out there....no thank you! ;-)
You're still a relatively young guy Kurt.....if you can handle the adversity in the business and roll with the punches....you'll do well.... it can be a very rewarding business as you already know.
Hang in there.....you've got a lot of people pullin' for ya !
It definitely pushes my buttons sometimes
Those lines on the ground are from Voles it’s kinda like a mole but smaller and burrows under snow and grass love the videos as well keep it up and be safe.
Thanks for the intel.
Had them in my yard when we first built the house. Once I put in underground sprinklers and started pouring water to it, they pretty much dissipated. I still get one from time to time, but not much. Pesky little bastards.
I run to okc couple times a month. Toll is better then scales every time.
Sorry about you grandpa passing hope you are OK I watch all your videos take care of Opie I like all kinds of animals got a cat myself and she is the boss truck safe my friend
Thank you on both counts
Great video!!!! This is a nice relaxing cruise down to Texas/ Mexico border!!!! “ First Class “ sounds great and Opie the star just chills !!! Seems everything is in order
Yup thank you
Thanks for the all great comments and stay safe and I love your video and I love your truck nice job
Thank you
Hey Schimdti, We love youre video's and wish you and you're family all the best for the christmas days and the new year. Stay healty and keep making you're cool video's. Greetings from Kerkrade in Netherlands and Aachen in Germany
Thanks for the kind words. You have a good holiday season as well.
I’m so proud to see big red clean and I liked when you connected the trailer don’t see that often on vides
7:47 and Kurt is driving bootless! Driving in comfort!! 😂 ok I would be too
I really enjoy your videos! I also like the creative places you mount your camera to give some really great shots! Keep up the great work! Stay safe!
Thank you
Great video. 👍 Stay safe my friend. God bless you 🙏.
Your in my neck of the woods. I drive by the chrome shop in tonkawa ok all the time. They put on a good truck show every year. Safe travels.
SB has a stupid check in process......and don’t dare slide your tandems on the blacktop!! Good video.
That’s kool your daughter rides with you sometimes even being a teen you know most teens want to be hanging out with friends. When I get my CDL I hope my daughter will ride along sometimes but I’m sure she will.
14:56 🎶😎 🎸 🎶 now this is music🕺
Ur going to Larado. likely coming thru San Antonio. Once this stupid epidemic settles down it would be nice to meet with you and introduce Opie to our two fan GSD girls. No, no, no. Both are spayed. Ha. One day we hope. Stay safe and Dont Mess With Texas (we kind of live by that motto)
That would be great
That engine sounds amazing
I like your truck 🚛
One of my favorite rides was from Calexico CA to Laredo TX. Got loaded at a place like your talking about took the back roads along the border the whole ride. Once night hit all you seen was guys on 4wheelers lit up with neon.
I think the thing I was referring to are your moose lights I noticed them when you took the covers off after you washed the truck, thank you
I love my hella lights.
Oh, before I completely forget, the holes you pointed out were from. House Hippos. They spend their summers mostly outside and come back in for the cooler months.
Couldn't help but notice you drive with no boots on! Gotta be comfy! Stay safe out there!
Yup
Another nice family video thank you
Great channel,great job on the video's.Those steps look great,thanks for sharing them.
Welcome thanks for watching
Great video! Thanks for bringing us along
I am telling ya man should have made that a double he would have been.covered. One thing I liked about the toll roads was the receipts use to tell me where the heck I was and that came in handy for them comic books.
Lol probably should of.
As a retired Driver I like your video's, What Transmission you running, I will say you pipe's cover up some of what your saying, Would like to know when you go from one State to another State and what each state is, Thanks For what you all do out there to Keep This Country Going , From Teddybear
18 eaton
My Grandfather drove a w900l very similar in color to yours. Just hearing your jake takes me back. I think his was a 97 tho. Those beautiful Kw's are the Kings of the open road. Yeah Pete's are nice and frieghtshakers are ok but The Lord was Havin himself a pretty darn good day when he invented the Kenworth W900L. Anyway i just wanted to let you know or maybe give you inspiration to Keep on keepin on. I'm pushing 30 and have always wanted to become a truck driver. But, being homeless for most of my life has put a damper on that dream. Listen at me rant! Anyways, Keep those 18 wheels a Rollin Driver! God Bless! Safe Journeys and I'll be seeing you later! #NewFavoriteTruckingVlogger
Thank you for tge kind words and good luck . Still time to get into the truck.
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 I surely hope so. I'm not getting any younger and trucking is getting too Governmentally Regulated. Enjoy yourself today Hoss. 💯
Opie is like, you better be just blowing that off and not thinking of putting it in your mouth......!!!🤣🤣safe travels to you and the "opster"....👍👍
Lol
Those cracks in the ground are from wet weather we have a lot of those in the ground here in Oklahoma I live in Oklahoma city that place on I35 with the upside down Simi is a cool place been there alot be safe bro!
Injoyed,thanks buddy.You running my old stomping grounds.Keep the dirty side down,we gone😴
Welcome, thanks for watching
I like the old frithliner
Hi my name is Ted and l live not to fair from that truck stop in Topeka .
Hey Mr. Schmidt, love your videos keep em coming but do get some sleep and stay safe. God bless you and your loved ones.
Thank you very much. And I like sleep.
I looked up your trail concern in the grass that Opie found fascinating. they are a species of voles called prairie voles, live in colonies similar to prairie dogs.
That explains a lot with opies reactions. He heard and smelled them i bet.
I would have subscibed alot sooner. But I just found you. These are great videos.
Thank you much appreciated
New to your channel, something bout your character I feel genuine, Liked that,I fully support our truckers and operators, if you ever are in Clearlake Iowa, stop In to Benningans there, and I'll buy your meal as our show of support, Real Talk
Thanks for joining up and will do.
My Prayers' are with you All
glad to see you and FIRST CLASS doing what you do best and of course MR OPIE the happy puppy chowing down on his cheeseburger good call using the toll road i always run my driving hours legally and keep the mighty actros in good order but like you say why would I hand myself on a silver platter to the DVSA they loom for the smallest thing and as they are self funded you are bound to get a ticket looking forward to seeing the chrome ship woth the truck outside glad to see FIRST CLASS is all buffed up and looking her best how about a fan club for MR OPIE then he can see all the nice lady German sheperds and take his pick 😂😂😂👍anyway stay safe out there young best wishes from joff in the UK
Lol yes he would enjoy that
Subscribed and from a little south of Topeka. Enjoy watching your videos. It was cool to see you driving roads I've driven many times. Have a safe trip. Take care.
Thank you. And you as well.
Your right, cracks are from the ground being dry. The dirt is probably a clay mix.
Fracking cracks? LOL Gophers? Cat motor? It sure sounds good no mater what it is.
Ok Kurt good luck hope your ride goes safe. Keep your rubber on the road
Stay out of the ditches.
Thank you
I’m from Mayetta ks I enjoy your video today it was 70 degrees beautiful day for December have a beautiful trip
Thank you it was a great day.
Kool to see on the road i35 in Ft. Worth talked to ya on the cb keep the shiny side up and greasy side down. 👍😎
Thats a darn nice w9 you are driving if that was you.
I am in Oklahoma, if you ever get to stay O.N. on I-35 at Hwy. 51 Stillwater exit let me know and I will come out take you to eat and admire your truck...
Will do
Love's @ Topeka..... and yes, I'm subscribed! Look forward to every run!
Well thank you
Was cool to actually see you yesterday. That was me parked next to you in Topeka at the Loves in the blue truck. Safe travels to Laredo.
Ahhhh should of yelled at me. It was a great day in Topeka weather wise.
US 75 north of Topeka @ 94 Rd my neighborhood!
I work just down the block at smuckers.
I like that toll road smooth running.
Moles or Voles, make the lines or trails.
Moles don't make lines like that Wes.......I've got moles in my yard...and they're ''tracks'' are nothing like the cracks in the ground that Kurt was showing.
There's a lot of red dirt in Oklahoma.....not sure what the consistency is...but those irregular cracks in the ground are usually nothing more than dry dirt. When it's as dry as it's been at times the past year....that's what you see.
What's with the commodity trailer at the plant? The make corn pigs in there? Just kidding. Good show.
I have loaded blood meal at those places in a grain wagon before.
Not sure
@@chopplolo72 Thanks. I noticed he was going in tarp off so that might just be it.
Look like at fifth wheels getting a little dry there big guy
I Haul unprocessed leather down two Laredo and eagle pass and bring spicy steel back I run the toll road and the expressway in Fort Worth and the one around Austin but not the hole thing. And was just down there on Monday working on my tan
I should of taken the expressway around Austin. In a 3 hour traffic jam now.
Ever buy anything from 4 states trucks in Joplin Mo.?? Neat place I bought 7.5 in stacks for my Pete last year...
Yup, great place.
Loving all the fancy camera angles.
Motor sounds like a dream but that would get on my nerves after the first 50 miles or so. Sounds good though.
It does
I swear I read the title as "Iowa pork blood goes to Mexico" and I'm think what do they do when the pork blood lol
Lol I have a buddy who hauls blood .
i had the laredo tacos. pretty good. but careful with that red salsa.
Lol
I live just south of topeka off of 75 near the round about
Yup went through it the other night. Had to detour away from the toll road. Apparently a big truck rolled.
you got a sharp kw, i want and plan to be a o/o myself someday, for now just been driving company
Great to hear. One day at a time.
Be safe in your travel to Texas look forward to your next video.
Thank you
trip better roads by the look of it, I80 is supposed to abit rough isn't it?. Oh yeah i have a young female Roo so far, will have a buck soon so watch out lol
I80 is horrible if you ask me
Lol. I'll tell the kids
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 you think i'm joking don't you?
Better be lol. What am going to do with those. They'd beat up my babies.
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 Cut em up for dog food lol.
I enjoy watching your videos. You sure are dedicated to McDonald's lol! Wish I was in the truck with you sometimes.
Just twice a week. I try to set the cameras yup where it can atleast sorta look like your in here. Thank you for watching
Fido is almost human, he eats Happy Meals too!
We get those same lines in the soil here in Australia, clay soil dried out in the summer and contracts
God bless thanks for the new content!!! Be safe
Welcome, thanks for watching
When you go through Auburn Nebraska where that big Christmas tree is you're only about 15 miles east of my farm just on the other side of tecumsah, when you drop them trailers down there do you do they unload them completely or did they haul your trailer into Mexico? I used to haul Chrysler products out of there but I never cared too much for the place too far south for me
The trailer will stay with me, they just unload it.
Question? On Toll Road's like the Ohio Turn Pike You see Truck's pulling two 53' Sometimes three 53' trailers have You ever pulled two or more 53' trailers?
Trailers are only 53', not 54'. I know its not a big difference but its big enough. Although I'm not from the US I have run it many, many times. I have seen 2 53' trailers, like we have here, but I'm yet to see 3 X 53' trailers being pulled by 1 truck in the USA. I know they run 3 X 53' trailers in Canada in certain Provinces (mostly Manitoba and Saskatchewan) but again, I've never seen it in the States.
@@a1driver982 I'm So Sorry l ment 53' and I knew that what a dummy Thank You for Replying Appreciate it Very Much
@@kennyspry5189 No worries, we all make mistakes.
Here in the States, those are called “Turnpike Doubles” and are only allowed 2.
No I haven't.
cool im from holton ks and work in topeka ks
Those are mole trails moles don't have eyes so they dig their nose in the ground and push them selfs like a little miniature bulldozer
I am waiting for some paracord to be delivered then I will make collars. Should be here any day.
Thats all good man.
If that dog ever starts answering you, you better run and never look back. lol
I had a day dream he did lol. Its intresting what goes on in my head during the day.
It’s from the dryness. Air cracks.
So you was in Moore ok
I’ve pushed plenty of them finished hormel pigs down the isle to Iowa trucks
You have nice trip, Mexico border.
It was great
Oklahoma city doesn't ever have bad traffic. Not compared to other big cities anyway.
Valdosta georgia here
Toll rd not that expensive the he'll with the scoops
Loving the new music.
Thank you young lady
