Listening to the sound of the Jake's from that C15 and looking at the mountains over the long orange hood is a heck of a treat on a Sunday night. Nice to see you running 'out West' for a change, Dan. Have a great week!
I visited my old partner in Tucson and on the way home we stopped at the Grand Canyon. The plan was to take that same route you were on home. My honey woke up in the middle of the night crying, she did not want to go that way home because she is afraid of mountains (?) . She drove 200 miles out of the way so we did not have to go through Colorado.
Dan, I don't know how you do what you do. Driving mile after mile. My wife and I just returned to NC from Florida last week driving 633 miles straight and that wore me out. To know that each day you face hundreds of miles, I have to hand it to you, you truck drivers are super in what you do. Being 86, may mean I am over the hill guy. Love your videos.
God bless you, that's a heck of a lot of mileage in a day. My granddaddy was 94 and driving every day still, even drove a class A motorhome now and then when we went camping.
I used to stop there a few days a week when I was running flatbed from California to Utah. What was cool is when I was filling up, the boys in their F-16's or F-18's or whatever they fly? would do a low flyby over Petro, waaaay coool!!!! Safe travels Dan and Baily!🙏✌️🤠
Having a honest shop doing top quality work on your truck has to be a good feeling . I must be old school the sound of the Jake break tells that trucks under control downhills . I'm looking forward to seeing the truck climbing those beautiful hills in your next video. Thank you and your copilot for taking us all along for the ride.
I15 and I70 are so familiar to me. It was nice to see them again. My wife and I drove from Escondido, California to Evansville, Wisconsin every Fall (18 years) since I retired. Sadly I lost her in 2021 and at 83 years old and alone, I won't ever make the drive again. But it was fun.
Sorry to hear about your wife. Maybe making the drive alone would be a nice way to remember the good times you had together making the trip. Fly in and drive a rental back maybe? I lost my dad and mom in '18 and '21 respectively, it sucks.
Hi Dan and Bailey. That interstate has some amazing scenery … and hills! I’m glad you got all that suspension and steering work done. It has to feel like a new truck. And that Jake brake sounds sweet. Stay safe, Dan.
You made me homesick Dan. I love that part of the country. I use to live in Silverthorne, Colorado which is right off I 70 about 6 miles west of the Eisenhower Tunnel.
HELLO DAN GREAT VIDEO BEAUTIFUL SKY ! THE JAKE BREAK IS PURE AWESOMENESS !! APPRECIATE YOUR VIDEOS & ALL YOU DO ! BE BLESSED STAY SAFE ! 👊👊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🐾🐾🐾❤️🐾🐾🐾
Safe Travels. Love love ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Miss Bailey. Give her a hug, smooches, & scratches behind both ears. Would love to drive that part of I-70 during the Fall.
I drove that stretch of I70 from Utah to Denver a couple of years ago. Had a bag of potato chips in the SUV and it exploded when I reached the Vail pass. Sounded like a shotgun blast. Fun times!
Hey Dan & Bailey !!! Thanks for the ride !! If you watch "Riding Shotgun "" ,you'll see where I-70 was washed away when they had the flood out there !! Looks like the rear drive axle was quite a ways out of alignment as saw 2 shims on the spring hanger on the driver's side !! Have a good run back East & Say "HI"" to Teresa !!👍👍👍👍👍
Glad you got everything fixed I seen you fight the wheel a few times I was wondering what was wrong. I haven't been up in that part of the world in a longtime it sure is pretty I used to haul salt out of that salt mine over by Moab.
Made that run a lot from the late 90’s till 2013 from mesquite NV to southern Minnesota, beautiful drive. Not much going between Salina Utah and fruita Colorado saw many trucks burning there brakes up. Old guy once told me “ you come down the mountain one gear lower than you came up. Always worked for me. Helped a guy out of his flipped freight liner. Lost his brakes and flipped it on the last turn just above Georgetown Colorado. He was cut up pretty bad, and unfortunately his dog didn’t make it, every brake on the truck and trailer was on fire. Those poor line haul guys really earned there money in the winter. Love the videos, stay safe.
Hi Dan here is a story I just have to tell you about tunnels..LongHaulLarry had a train horn on his truck, Big Blue, and every time we would go thru a tunnel he would let Big Blue say Hi..but of course he always made sure there was not a lot of traffic around so as not to wreak someone, but one time after looking for cars and not seeing any Big Blue had a to say a long Hi, after that a little small car passed him and had a beep beep to say..and that was so funny I thought maybe you would enjoy that little story about tunnels..Have a great day..😀👍🇺🇸
That brings back memories … Back in the 90s i used to run that route every week ! Alot more traffic now , it used to be very lonely some days across there . Keep on keeping on
All that work should let the truck roll easier so your fuel economy should improve. You have one the best trucks I have seen rolling down the highways.
I love the sound of the Jake brake. When I was running and over the road the truck I was driving the Jake brake wasn't working we got a time one day to look at it and a wire on the dash was lose. We got that fixed and it didn't get tuned off much. Stay safe and God bless. Dan 🇺🇲
It's been a while...glad to see you and bailey back. You're the epitome of being a professional...tracking and keeping your truck maintenance up-to-date so you don't run into any problems down the road. 🚚📃✔ The scenery was very nice driving through the hills/mountains. ⛰ Stay safe out there. 😎👍
Spent a lot of time at Nellis AFB for Red Flag and Air Warrior Exercises. Utah a very beautiful state. Many golf trips there. Jake brake sounds great. We have a local company that hauls mulch. They mainly have Pete 379 day cabs. Use their Jake brakes alot on our local Route 611, Easton Rd here in Southeastern Pa.
Thank You Dan and Bailey for the Beautiful Western scenery and for the beautiful 🎶 music of the Jake Brakes. Music to the ears! Wishing You safe and Blessed travels. 🙏👍
Fantastic video brilliant scenery I think the work you had done on the truck will pay for it self no problem Stay safe and keep the brilliant video coming 🌵🇬🇧⭐️👍
Traveling on I-70 heading to Denver you have to take your time. Especially when you pass Eisenhower tunnel. Especially in the winter. You have to throw chains
Glad to see that your doing good also I'm sure it felt like you spent alot of money getting the truck upto 100% also its beautiful this time year going thru the gordge this time year
,,, intermittent moderately hard pressure yes, even with the Jake, steady pressure no, never especially on a long downgrade . I took a load of that roofing over Loveland, but it was hazardous because of one pallet of flammable glue . Had to go around Eisenhower Tunnel, on route six . 10 or 15 foot shy of 11 thousand foot .Got pictures of a lifetime .
Dan Dan the professional flat deck man. Nice Scenery Dan. I watch Trucking Together all the time and they run 70 a lot. Love the sound of jakes in the morning. I like when you said you don’t race up the hills or race down the hills, you let the truck do the work. That’s how a pro like yourself does it. That tractor has served you well. Nice to see you putting the money back into the tractor. I would love to have run with a unit like yours. Ya never know I could end up back out there. I would like to think if I did end up back out there I still have it in me do get the job done. Loved the video Dan, thanks for posting. Have a great and a safe day. Happy trails and happy motoring.
looking good Dan , doing all the work on your truck , you can see it solid now , I know about marks on tires , but hopefully they will run even and you will get a lot of miles out of them tires before you put new ones , be safe take care yourselves Dan

Glad you had replaced the tie rods....no buckling the wheels when you turn 😇

Back in the day thats a normal day....hooah Without Trucks America Stops.
Dan great video,Injoy them all.
God bless you, that's a heck of a lot of mileage in a day. My granddaddy was 94 and driving every day still, even drove a class A motorhome now and then when we went camping.
I love to hear the JAKE purr!!
If you want to learn from a true professional watch this channel. This man knows how to drive and he to keep up his equipment. A true professional.
I used to stop there a few days a week when I was running flatbed from California to Utah. What was cool is when I was filling up, the boys in their F-16's or F-18's or whatever they fly? would do a low flyby over Petro, waaaay coool!!!!
Safe travels Dan and Baily!🙏✌️🤠

Cool to watch you go down the grade. Great music selection during pass.

Always enjoyed the Gorge and its views. But the last trip was not fun. Snowing like crazy and no load.
I agree. Even with the bridge work,the gorge on 15 is a nice drive too
Hi Dan and Bailey. That interstate has some amazing scenery … and hills! I’m glad you got all that suspension and steering work done. It has to feel like a new truck. And that Jake brake sounds sweet. Stay safe, Dan.
Hi Dan, Thanks for the trip thru Glenwood Canyon and the Ike Tunnel, one of the best road's for viewing in US.
Glad to hear your "Corvette" is handling good again .
One of the main parts of the truck you got repaired. God-bless and safe travels
Thanks for the Jake Brake Dan!
You made me homesick Dan. I love that part of the country. I use to live in Silverthorne, Colorado which is right off I 70 about 6 miles west of the Eisenhower Tunnel.
Jake Brake = Music to my ears. Good to still hear it. Most of the trucks I see on the road are all filtered up and can’t hear anything anymore.
Dan, those are some beautiful skies out your office window. Thank you for sharing.👍👍👍
HELLO DAN GREAT VIDEO BEAUTIFUL SKY ! THE JAKE BREAK IS PURE AWESOMENESS !! APPRECIATE YOUR VIDEOS & ALL YOU DO ! BE BLESSED STAY SAFE ! 👊👊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🐾🐾🐾❤️🐾🐾🐾
The drive from Mesquite NV to Denver on I70 is one of the most beautiful roads in the US. Enjoy the beauty of the West.
Great to see you back on the road!
Safe Travels. Love love ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Miss Bailey. Give her a hug, smooches, & scratches behind both ears.
Would love to drive that part of I-70 during the Fall.
I love driving at sunrise on hilly interstates. Sunrise is the time of renewal.
That stretch of the road past No Name is one of the best views on 70.
Enjoyable road footage 🗽🇺🇸 🚛💯👌
I drove that stretch of I70 from Utah to Denver a couple of years ago. Had a bag of potato chips in the SUV and it exploded when I reached the Vail pass. Sounded like a shotgun blast. Fun times!
You got Glenwood 17:54 canyon copper Mt Vail and Eisenhower tunnel some beautiful road. Enjoy be safe 😅
Thumbs up for Dan's mechanic. Looks like he or she earned their money. Thanks for the tour.
Vegas to Denver on the 15/70 is always a gorgeous drive!
Best TH-cam content

That brings back memories … Back in the 90s i used to run that route every week ! Alot more traffic now , it used to be very lonely some days across there . Keep on keeping on
Glad you got the work done like you said. The truck feels. Good. On the. Road. Tunnels. Cut. Through. The. Mountains. Great. Scenery. Thanks

All that work should let the truck roll easier so your fuel economy should improve. You have one the best trucks I have seen rolling down the highways.

good to see you back out again Dan. One of the most beautiful stretches of Interstate I70 through Colorado, thanks for the ride.
Your Birthday? Happy Birthday Dan...!
What a great video of some truly beautiful country. Keep the shiny side up and the dirty side down Dan.
I love the sound of the Jake brake. When I was running and over the road the truck I was driving the Jake brake wasn't working we got a time one day to look at it and a wire on the dash was lose. We got that fixed and it didn't get tuned off much.

The scenery was very nice driving through the hills/mountains. ⛰
Stay safe out there. 😎👍
Thanks for the video, got my tunnel fixation taken care of, like the engineering that goes into them.
One of my favorite stretches is from Denver to Vegas!
I was always taught constant steady pressure.
Spent a lot of time at Nellis AFB for Red Flag and Air Warrior Exercises. Utah a very beautiful state. Many golf trips there. Jake brake sounds great. We have a local company that hauls mulch.

Thanks for sharing
My favorite strech of the interstate start of 70 just out of Beaver to Denver, Winter can be a bit of a PAIN !!
Glenwood canyon is probably my favorite part of highway in the country.
Glad to see you guys you guys have a blessed week
Awesome country views thank you be safe 👍
Thanks for the ride. God Bless and stay safe.

Beautiful scenery! It's nice to take a scenic route when you have the opportunity. Safe travels!

Stay safe and keep the brilliant video coming
🌵🇬🇧⭐️👍
Spectacular Mountain Video! Safe travels.
Welcome back! Glad to see you back on the road
Hello Dan, I got to say your truck doesn't look the same with the HI Teresa sticker missing 😂😂😂 great video . Stay safe .
Traveling on I-70 heading to Denver you have to take your time. Especially when you pass Eisenhower tunnel. Especially in the winter. You have to throw chains
Sounds great
Thanks for showing us all the repairs on your rig. The rest of this video is some of the best scenery in the country. You just made my day!!!
Glenwood canyon is a beautiful drive
We love this
Safe travels thanks for videos!
Nice drive, but probably not in winter. lol
Travel safe and thanks for the video, Dan!!! Have a great day.
I was taught Constant pressure will really heat the brakes up. I went 70w on Sunday Sep 24.
Lol, i love to hear that Jake with them big stove pipes. 🤙
Glad to see that your doing good also I'm sure it felt like you spent alot of money getting the truck upto 100% also its beautiful this time year going thru the gordge this time year
Awe he$& In Vegas myself for Steeler game…Wish I knew would’ve stopped by…
Safe travels my friend…
Hey Dan just want to thank you again for your videos. I really enjoy seeing places I have never been. Keep em coming.
Thanks Dan
Love to see the jake footage.
Thanks for the road footage in CO!!!
,,, intermittent moderately hard pressure yes, even with the Jake, steady pressure no, never especially on a long downgrade . I took a load of that roofing over Loveland, but it was hazardous because of one pallet of flammable glue . Had to go around Eisenhower Tunnel, on route six . 10 or 15 foot shy of 11 thousand foot .Got pictures of a lifetime .
My wife and I used to run team Kanas city to LA two trips a week. We would go I70 in the sunner if not to heavy. Or I40 rest of the time.
I think the Shelby Museum is right there next to the race track too. Original cobra is there.
I have driven through Eisenhower tunnel in the winter it is scary, with the ice build up inside
Vegas east on I-70 is one of my favorite rides. Buttes, mesas and chaparral all get a view. Overlooks and steep climbs and drops. Stay safe.
Back on the grind stay safe brother from the imperial county California 👍👍🇺🇲.
Very nice.
Great video! Keep on trucking!
Cool video Dan 👍
