  • Two Days Over The Road | Wild Fires, Air Leaks, Finger Injuries, OH MY!
    Hey everyone! In this video, I make my way up to Billings, MT, and then back down to SLC. As a trucker, we see lots of crazy stuff over the road and encounter lots of unexpected problems. During this trip, I have to deal with the smoke from the wildfires, show you guys my injuries from working with dollies, and manage to limp my way to a FedEx hub to drop off a trailer due to an air bag leak that happened mid-trip. Enjoy!

    I'm 68 year old guy, and I know nothing about trucking, but I have to admire and rejoice to see such a wonderful upbeat young woman like you enjoying your work, and encouraging others to look at the bright side of life, no matter what their occupation. It is so refreshing to see that you are trying your best to advance your career and explore all the possibilities it offers. This video was especially creative, with the views of Yellowstone. Keep up the great work, be safe, happy motoring, and best regards to you always!!

    One reason I really enjoy your videos and some from other drivers is that it helps me to still feel connected to the lifestyle I loved, I have a friend that is an old school driver like me and I asked him if I would be considered a rookie and drivers blew up my comment basically telling me hell no you would not be a rookie just an old driver that answered the call again, I was told the Truck Driver was a title you earned and anything you earn is yours for life so I still refer to my self as a truck driver that retired to be around for my daughter more, that is when I started driving line-haul for Old Dominion out of the Birmingham, Al terminal

At the time of rest, it is great to explore wonderful things, including the picturesque areas or views so that the driver does not get bored of the road and also from that gain experience in coordinating his schedule .. Your videos are wonderful and I wish you all good luck and health Go on
