Make sure your phone works up there. Call credit card company about travel plans. Take passport. It’s really cold so take more blankets. Chains for ice, snow. Snow brush, extra washer fluid. No guns sadly. Crossing border takes a lot of time. Drivers with past arrests within 10 years will have trouble crossing.
No straight stacks in Canada . They will make you put a muffler or resonator in-line under the truck . They will right you up also for low Cab visors .
Just throwing a few names out there for the truck. My late husband and I had an old yanke truck 2003 freightliner Columbia it was blue so we just named it blue. Shadow, the dark knight other names
For sure...second this!! @DebossGarage is pretty sweet and the Ken cab over is🔥. He's not too far up over the border in Ontario from me in Buffalo NY area. Maybe do a TH-cam vid team up with those 2 or something interesting.
@NUNLEY1743 Peg is from Northern Alberta, hell of a jaunt. Reload going South, meh, not at all likely, possible, just not likely. I am +/- 500 miles North of Trucker Josh, reloads South, from here, are really scarce these days! Josh has had to go South empty a time or two. Also the fuel costs are eyebrow lifting. If you want another humorous/transport related channel try 'King of Obsolete' on YT. Joey is 200 miles west of me. Best wishes from the far North.
Hey Tim. I use old fire hose I get from fire stations and rebuilders they work better for tank strap gaskets and to run hydro lines for protection. I take care of a fleet of tow trucks it's the best I've found !!!
I’d watch saying “fire” around these parts too much….after the investigators came just shy of having enough to go to the prosecutor last time that word makes these folks awful jumpy!
You will need a speed limiter . And you will need to get scac and carrier codes to be able to go back and forth with products. Scac is for USA customs and carrier code for the Canada customs. Insurance company will need a Canadian affiliate. I am a cross border carrier and have been for 36 years. You can contact me if you need anything else I can help with. Thanks
I’m a Canadian trucker. I cross into the us weekly. Be careful on the trans Canada if you are in northern Ontario. I live in that area and would rather run in the states. WINTER DIESEL!! We get cold up here. The diesel in the south will freeze. Reach out to me if you have more questions.
The guy you want to talk to is Sergei from Guns+Freight+Muscle Cars. He used to do heavy haul down into the states and back into Canada and BC. He sold his truck and trailer and became a freight broker. He ran a class operation like you guys and most likely would be a wealth of knowledge about hauling into and out of Canada.
You are so lucky to be able to teach your son. I lost my marriage over my daughter because she wanted to wrench on engines, especially diesel she is happy being greasy and learning about working on engines, cars, and tractors. Her step mom couldn’t couldn’t except that. So we are getting divorced but daddies girl will still be wrenching. She’s only seven.
If you ever need a reliable driver in Canada.. Outta Nova Scotia.. Have a passport. Never don't cross boarder trucking. But a freightliner classic with a 6nz... And a little respect. I'll go anywhere lol. Hauled mostly van and tank super b. Done ice roads. Just stepped back. Needed a break from being a number
Tim, one time the company I work for had a trailer that was stolen and ended up in Canada. When it was found and we arranged for it to come back it required a good amount of work to cross the border back to the U.S. just be sure your equipment is in working order, like you always do and I think you’ll do great!
Great job on the copper top boys! That C-15 Looks good and sounded even better! We are right in the middle of swapping a mechanical Cummins for a C15 in a 1990 379EX! Great to see you boys giving new life to these older working trucks!
I love your channel. I hate detroits. When I drove I had more downtime by far with detroits. Cats are decent. I’ve driven over half a million miles with Cummins and only sidelined once by an oil sensor. If I ever do this again I’m Cummins all the way.
@@mambalight9821 I'm not entirely sure of what companies are training and hiring, but I've seen alot of companies hauling boats from down south up to canada and some of the marinas and marines stores around me. So idk
@@mambalight9821 I do not yet, but hopefully soon. I've been doing alot of training with my family's quarrys drivers. But also have been doing ride alongs. It helps to see how they drive so I can have a better understanding of what's expected when the time comes for me to do my CDL Testing.
Hey Tim, I’ve ran across the Canadian border multiple times they do have a length restriction on your tractor depending on the providence as you go to if you go to the East Providence, your trucks must be ECM restricted the entire way. I believe it’s 65 miles an hour you can’t go any faster and you have to have proof of that Hass to be done through the dealership with documentation or you can probably do it with your computer and just provide documentation if you’re delivering into Canada make sure you have your ace manifest and you’re scheduled prior a couple hours prior were they will charge you a fine coming out. Make sure you have an ace manifest with your loaded. We’re empty people are right it’s a lot it’s a pain usually have issues with US customs get yourself a US customs transponder cause the US charges you are used to be $15 every time you cross the border and you get a transponder from US customs for that
And then everyone wonders why his motors don’t last. Should be worried about economy, mileage, and getting the most out of them. But his ego is in the drivers seat. High HP, black smoke, and sketchy driving.
Like I mentioned in my last text it's easier for the trucks to come out of Canada than go into Canada Michigan would let you in no matter what Canada on the other hand if you had a DUI 20 years ago good luck getting into Canada they're a lot more stricter
Hey man if coming to Canada make sure your anti freeze is atleast 50/50 so your truck doesn't freeze up also bring close to keep warm it can range from minus 10 to 50 so it can be wild and even many bring some alcohol for your air lines if it freezes up. And many even extra fuel filter and a way to drain your air dryer. Currently temp is fluctuating from mince 6 to 20.phil from Canada cheers.
It will be real funny when one of those junks break down or get shut down in Canada and you have to pay to get it fixed. Be amazing if one of those trucks can make it to Canada
When I was young I bought my first log truck, we lived right off the highway. So on days when work was slow and other log trucks went by that old Kenworth could be seen jumping up and down in the driveway. Lets go, lets go! So I imagine that on quiet evenings down in Tennessee there is an old gray ghost howling at the moon. Her 1693 has still a lot to say. At one time she owned the night with six White horses telling the world all is right. I know your all too busy right now but sure wish to see Johnny Cash under power again.
Awesome news, Super excited, next level, and Big moves! In almost every video. Translation - We about to duct tape this Peterbilt together and make a 300 mile run.
Tim, we're enjoying the content, so no matter how upside down things have been since the fire, you got four wheels giving thumbs up and staying on board. Can't wait for my Old Yeller Tee shirt! 👍 hance
Sweet. you'll be coming to my back yard I'm just 2 hours north of the Detroit border in Ontario. If you ever need a place to park a truck or trailer for any reason I can probably help out. plus my farm is pretty much the dedicated scale jumping route just off the main highway through ontario which all our trucks.
Ya Tim, I'd stay here in America!!! What for an awesome Opportunity here in the USA! It's really Cold up there! Ya, think you're in a little bit of a Hurry! Relax Brother, we will make America Awesome again!!!
Hi Tim, I am preety sure that the Exhaust pipes need to have guards around them, or at least the side closest to the doors. Thus to prevent any body from getting burnt on them,.Have a great trip up to Canada, and please take us with you, plenty of driving videos. Cheers mate.
I have ran straits plenty of times never did have no guards , DOT never did question me , But a lot of States made sure I had a muffler , straight pipes need muffler today , What I done I put a spark resistor 1 foot from the back of the Turbo They let me slide every time DOT ok it
Hey Tim. A little tip for dealing with heartburn if you're traveling. You can squeeze out a little bit of toothpaste and eat it. Repeat if necessary. It usually has mint in it and will help. I've been using this for years. I don't even keep heartburn mints around anymore. Thanks for the video!
Hey Tim, check before you head into Canada. But they used to require all trucks have speed limiters installed on them to operate in Canada. They used to pull you over and hook to your engine computer to see if the speed limiters were in place. Was told it was a big fine . I never got caught. But I did know the consequences of getting caught were expensive !
Love your expanding and ignoring the haters. However, trucking in Canada is a whole different kettle of fish than trucking below the 49 parallel. Summer is fine but you need to know when summer is by location and lattitude. Once your crew undewrstands the elements and demands you will thrive. Looking forward to Gentry and Sons in Canada.
Hey Tim. I live in Montana and work for a company that hauls fuel and propane. I deadhead into Canada and haul propane back to the US. There hasn’t been any issues. Follow all their rules at the border crossings and make sure you never argue with them and all should be good.
Welcome to Canada Tim, I’m not sure if every province requires a heat shield on the exhaust but my brother was told he had to in Manitoba! Guess DOT don’t like to get burned when they try to climb onto trucks!
@jake knelsen I don't know know what your brother was told, I'm telling YOU that there's no rule or law anywhere in Canada about that. I use to run across Canada until I switched jobs but I still have plenty of friends that still run and none of the trucks have a heat shield. I still don't have one on mu current truck.
Man, probably not what you are going for, but I really enjoy falling asleep to these vids. The sounds of shop work and diesels is so calming. Don't worry tho, I do usually get back to finishing the vids the next day 😂
Tim there is a Russian Canadian Sergi Dratchev , He s retired from trucking Had his own authority He ran heavy haul based out of canada =he ran the Us - Hes a broker in Calgary now - He had a web site also -
Tim You Polish all the Aluminum on that Truck and You will have a Awesome looking Freightliner. Polish the Rim's again Fuel Tanks and look out She will be standing tall...
Hay dude if you willing to help a Canadian get his license my pops drove for almost forty years been around trucks my hole life. Other then that awesome video as always !
Welcome to Canada. Live near Windsor Ont. (Ambassador bridge from Detroit). Hope to see your logo in the area. We need more people like you internationally. Keep on trucking
U can be doin great and there will always be someone hating on u dont ever let that get to u cuz obviously they are jelous of what ur doin keep up the work tim much love and respect to ur whole family
There is no way I would ever travel back to Canada. The border was horrible they tore my truck apart an just left everything on the ground.. I was never so happy in my life to see Buffalo NY.
Sounds like Quebec. Not legal if they did not find anything. You can make them put it back. US divers normally have harder time going back to US than coming into Canada.
Drive that truck up to Canada with it Black Smoking like that and the Canadian Government will IMPOUND that thing so fast it’ll make your head spin……..I wouldn’t go SHOWBOATING pouring out BLACK SMOKE when you’re passing through the border!!!! They’ll also FINE you and you won’t be able to afford the fine!
Every government frowns on that black smoke. That's why they're raising so much hell, one of these days and it's coming real soon every big truck on the road will have to have emission tests.
You'll love trucking here in Canada Tim. And it might be worth looking up Sergei Dratchev. He's a TH-camr as well in the Calgary area I believe but he use to haul heavy and oversized loads across the border. He has just recently changed careers to the brokerage side of the business but he could definetly have some useful knowledge for you for border crossings.
Back when I ran, Canada didn't allow a long nosed Pete or the Classic XL into Canada . If you look at Canadian trucking video's you won't see either of these trucks. Maybe it's different now. You may want to look into it before driving up there.
Heck yeah dude expanding out you made out pretty good with those donations that you didn't have to pay taxes on didn't lose a dime at all it seems like. Getting all kinds of new engines and Chrome got yourself a couple brand-new trucks a nice new Camaro I'd sure like to know how much insurance paid
@@chrisbowman8415 He doesn't discuss his taxes. He's gotten like 40-50 case settlements. Plus he works full time as a truck driver...who knows what his wife does or makes....none of it has anything to do with not paying taxes. Publicly claiming hes violating laws with no evidence is called Libel and he can file against you and win. You'd have to prove your false claims are factual...which we know you can't so You'd Lose. Then he can get your wages garnished and pay him for years...don't be dumb anymore
You know why the Freedom Convoy existed, right? It was because Trudeau was forcing truckers going between the United States and Canada to get jabbed to even reenter this country from theirs and vice versa. It was very sad what happened to them in the end that put me in tears because they were doing something right for the good of us all that their evil government destroyed.
Hey Tim . I hope you and your family and your employees are all doing well especially after all you have gone through. I was a long haul truck driver on a part time basis for many years but in the last 20 years i have only worked in the road building industry hauling paving equipment and driving a triaxle dump truck. I spent alot of time driving in the United States of America and i really did enjoy it. Americans treated me so well and even now when i travel to the U.S. When you come to Canada you will notice some differences but with that said you will be treated with respect. I am a proud Canadian and we live 2.5 hours north east of Detroit Michigan. P.S. When you get across the border and you need a cup of coffee or some donuts or maybe some fast food, look for sings that say Tim Hortons and you will find that they can get get you filled up !!!!! God bess Brother
Hey Tim, glad to see you recovering from the fire. I hauled crude oil into canada before Covid. I didn't have any issues with there DOT. Crossing in to Canada was easy. Just have your paperwork filled out correctly. It would be less than 5 minutes to cross. Coming back across was a bigger pain. I believe the other comments are correct about the shroud on the stacks. Also fuel is outrageous up there. Keep you trucks in top shape up there. I ran a 4 axle tractor with a lift axel and 4 axle trailer. Canada does not count the lift axle on the tractor. You would have to leave that axle up at all times. The trailer counted in your combo. Keep digging and working hard. You got this.
Junk in, Junk out 🤷 Tim, that truck looks terrible, both inside and out, and your priority is to take the factory mufflers and stacks off, and replace them with aftermarket stacks, so you can hear it, and watch it smoke, forget about the mechanics, I wanna hear that Jake Brake! They look like a good place to get a 2nd degree burn 🔥 to me....🤔 "We got some lights on it, and we got stacks on it" "We're going to Canada, I want to go Worldwide" Worldwide, really Tim, you might want to brush up on your Geographical knowledge, and take a look at a world map, I'm just sayin.....🤦 It's amazing how your trucks accelerate when bob-tailing, I'm pretty impressed. Is that a knock I hear in that Detroit? Good luck in Canada, you're gonna need it, or maybe some divine intervention would be better......
@@dangit4341 Yeah, or a big merchandise sale on things they don't have in stock, but you have to pay when you order, and hope and pray they'll get some in the future?
make sure you fill your tanks in the US before crossing the border. Fuel is way more expensive here
Make sure your phone works up there. Call credit card company about travel plans. Take passport. It’s really cold so take more blankets. Chains for ice, snow. Snow brush, extra washer fluid.

Heads up gotta have a muffler and heat shields reverse lights and few other little things can’t remember exactly for Ontario Canada

So set em to like 90mph...they're there right haha
It is the law,but it's not enforced.courts overturned some fines so it hasn't been enforced since
Only 2 Provinces require a speed limiter.

Hey Tim i love watching your video keep up the good work bro
How bout "purple Haze" for the blue/black classic? Kinda looks purple in the right light
Awesome 😎 . Glad to see a American trucker going to Canada I see a lot of Canadian trucks down really glad to see someone going up there!!!!👍
Congratulations to your team& your company…. Be safe
Welcome to Canada. Live near Windsor Ont. (Ambassador bridge from Detroit). Hope to see your logo in the area. We need more people like you internationally. Keep on trucking
Hi Tim iv watched you from day one. Love watching your videos and seeing how far you have come keep the good work up from the uk 🇬🇧 👍
Hi Tim before you cross into Canada make sure you get your groceries and fill your fuel tanks, it’s expensive up here.
52 min video let’s go !!!
I love the videos to
I love seeing these old trucks run no def government jouice keep up the great work
You have to run speed reduction limits to 65mph.
The “Classic” sounds amazing!
U can be doin great and there will always be someone hating on u dont ever let that get to u cuz obviously they are jelous of what ur doin keep up the work tim much love and respect to ur whole family
Tim have been hauling for years out of Canada. Get your TWIK card and have a pass Port. You are golden. Don't listen to the other bull shit.
There is no way I would ever travel back to Canada. The border was horrible they tore my truck apart an just left everything on the ground.. I was never so happy in my life to see Buffalo NY.
Sounds like Quebec. Not legal if they did not find anything. You can make them put it back. US divers normally have harder time going back to US than coming into Canada.
I basically had the same happen to me trying to cross into New York state, just not the Canadians doing that brother.
We are always here for your brother!!!
Drive that truck up to Canada with it Black Smoking like that and the Canadian Government will IMPOUND that thing so fast it’ll make your head spin……..I wouldn’t go SHOWBOATING pouring out BLACK SMOKE when you’re passing through the border!!!! They’ll also FINE you and you won’t be able to afford the fine!
Every government frowns on that black smoke. That's why they're raising so much hell, one of these days and it's coming real soon every big truck on the road will have to have emission tests.
awesome, hope you can make it over to British Columbia coffee is on.
You'll love trucking here in Canada Tim. And it might be worth looking up Sergei Dratchev. He's a TH-camr as well in the Calgary area I believe but he use to haul heavy and oversized loads across the border. He has just recently changed careers to the brokerage side of the business but he could definetly have some useful knowledge for you for border crossings.
I think he left driving due to an accident where things got crazy for him as well as awful processing times for permits in Ontario.
Sergei is out of Cambridge, Ontario. Cambridge is about 45 West of Toronto.
@@jeffreycairns767 He lives in Calgary now, doing freight brokerage. Sold his truck a few months back.
Back when I ran, Canada didn't allow a long nosed Pete or the Classic XL into Canada . If you look at Canadian trucking video's you won't see either of these trucks. Maybe it's different now. You may want to look into it before driving up there.
Just remember the average price for diesel in Canada is 10 dollars for a U.S. gallon depending which province you go into
How much is $1 American in Canadian?
1.338599 CAD
1 USD = 1.338599 CAD Feb 12, 2023 01:32 UTC
😱
It is nowhere near that. At 1.80 a litre times 3.79 litres per US gallon times 75 cents US to the Canadian dollar works out to 5.12 US to a US gallon
It's currently 1.4 a litre on fuel cards it's similar to US prices, but better cetane than #2
I live in Southern Ontario and haven't missed a video welcome to are great country .Can't wait to see your trucks on the 401
Heck yeah dude expanding out you made out pretty good with those donations that you didn't have to pay taxes on didn't lose a dime at all it seems like.
Getting all kinds of new engines and Chrome got yourself a couple brand-new trucks a nice new Camaro I'd sure like to know how much insurance paid
Nah he gotta claim it
@@mrmotofy nah he don't
@@chrisbowman8415 You don't know anything
@@mrmotofy I do all of the proof is in the videos that he puts up
@@chrisbowman8415 He doesn't discuss his taxes. He's gotten like 40-50 case settlements. Plus he works full time as a truck driver...who knows what his wife does or makes....none of it has anything to do with not paying taxes. Publicly claiming hes violating laws with no evidence is called Libel and he can file against you and win. You'd have to prove your false claims are factual...which we know you can't so You'd Lose. Then he can get your wages garnished and pay him for years...don't be dumb anymore
If you ever get to the Montreal area, you need to stop and say hello to the Nick's Garage folks. Nick has a great channel.
You know why the Freedom Convoy existed, right? It was because Trudeau was forcing truckers going between the United States and Canada to get jabbed to even reenter this country from theirs and vice versa. It was very sad what happened to them in the end that put me in tears because they were doing something right for the good of us all that their evil government destroyed.
Hi Tim im so happy for you congrats
no dui as a driver. make sure you have a good broker at the border. don't speed the limit is 88klm not mph lol
also your truck has to be set no higher than 65mph or its a fine and must be lowered.
we had a sprint car team pull a car with that same rv 2 years ago...
Hey Tim . I hope you and your family and your employees are all doing well especially after all you have gone through. I was a long haul truck driver on a part time basis for many years but in the last 20 years i have only worked in the road building industry hauling paving equipment and driving a triaxle dump truck. I spent alot of time driving in the United States of America and i really did enjoy it. Americans treated me so well and even now when i travel to the U.S. When you come to Canada you will notice some differences but with that said you will be treated with respect. I am a proud Canadian and we live 2.5 hours north east of Detroit Michigan. P.S. When you get across the border and you need a cup of coffee or some donuts or maybe some fast food, look for sings that say Tim Hortons and you will find that they can get get you filled up !!!!! God bess Brother
once again... way too long!!
Hey Tim, glad to see you recovering from the fire. I hauled crude oil into canada before Covid. I didn't have any issues with there DOT. Crossing in to Canada was easy. Just have your paperwork filled out correctly. It would be less than 5 minutes to cross. Coming back across was a bigger pain. I believe the other comments are correct about the shroud on the stacks. Also fuel is outrageous up there. Keep you trucks in top shape up there. I ran a 4 axle tractor with a lift axel and 4 axle trailer. Canada does not count the lift axle on the tractor. You would have to leave that axle up at all times. The trailer counted in your combo. Keep digging and working hard. You got this.
Junk in, Junk out 🤷
Tim, that truck looks terrible, both inside and out, and your priority is to take the factory mufflers and stacks off, and replace them with aftermarket stacks, so you can hear it, and watch it smoke, forget about the mechanics, I wanna hear that Jake Brake! They look like a good place to get a 2nd degree burn 🔥 to me....🤔
"We got some lights on it, and we got stacks on it"
"We're going to Canada, I want to go Worldwide"
Worldwide, really Tim, you might want to brush up on your Geographical knowledge, and take a look at a world map, I'm just sayin.....🤦
It's amazing how your trucks accelerate when bob-tailing, I'm pretty impressed. Is that a knock I hear in that Detroit?
Good luck in Canada, you're gonna need it, or maybe some divine intervention would be better......
@@kurtfoulke5130
Lol....... Me Too!
@@dangit4341
Yeah, or a big merchandise sale on things they don't have in stock, but you have to pay when you order, and hope and pray they'll get some in the future?
@@dangit4341
Last night when he said he wanted to go Worldwide, I just about lost it. 🤣
Got my R.I.P shirt today brother 🙏 thank yall
You won’t make it in Canada !! Prove me wrong !😝
