    Great video Dan! I drove out to Colorado for vacation a month ago. I stopped at North Platte to visit the worlds largest railroad staging/service yard. Union Pacific's "Bailey" Yard. It was quite a operation with a tall visitor tower/visitor center. I enjoy the driving segments you put in too!

    i always stopped at Grand Island, Neb. use to be semi-small then it got bigger. it was a great place to stop, lots of space, never seemed to get full. even spent weekends there, if i got loaded early, and delivery was on a Monday. enjoyed my time there and the staff was very friendly.

    Truck is looking good. I did the same thing back in 92 and had to go back only 190 miles. I'm guessing about everyone has had to go back at one time or another if they've been trucking for several years. Stay safe and take good care of the little one.

    I drove a flatbed for about 15 years. About 12 years ago I picked up a load in Knoxville, TN going to Big Spring Texas. I arrive in Big Spring Texas and my customers address is wrong. There isn't a business by that name in Big Spring. I contacted our load planner and they had screwed up. My load was supposed to go to Big Spring,Nebraska, needless to say it had to be rescheduled. Be safe out there.

    Hey Dan. Love your videos. Of all the yrs i had my CDL I loved hauling equipment the most. You are correct on what you call those machines but even closer they are crack sealers. When I worked for Kansas DOT we had one that looked almost identical to the orange ones to seal the cracks in the highway and then we would put a little sand on the tar. I really like your current truck. That sleeper is to die for. You and baily have a safe trip buddy.

    • @edbutton9445
      @edbutton9445 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dan, tell Katie you need a partial when the Denver drop comes off. As long as it's going in the general direction, it's extra revenue. Also, never be happy about your fuel mileage. Always be trying to improve. You've slowed down and you're holding 1400 and you've gone from 5 to 6.4. Now, run 1250, keep the turbo boast at 12 lbs, and watch the mileage go to 7. Not impossible for a 550 6NZ, and calculate the savings compared to 5 mpg. It will make you smile. Keep the deck loaded. Nice looking step that passed you, but what's his revenue per mile?
