I seen you today in the loves, in ky. I wanted to say hi, looked like you were on a mission to get some coffee didn't want to disturb you. Watched you for years. Hopefully I see you again one day I will say hi next time.
Geez, another perfectly timed video. Catching 10 in portage Indiana after unload in oshkosh and reload in plover wi. Its gotta be tough loading, driving, unloading and doing your videos. Tip of the ol hat to you brother.

Hi Dan over here in Europe Volvo run a twin drive axle system and when empty you can lift up the rear drive axle that gives you less fuel burn, best of luck from Dublin Ireland
That truck museum at the I80 is amazing, I was there back in 2018 on vacation and got to go through it and I was in heaven seeing all those cool old trucks.
I was at the Iowa 80 truck museum when I was at Walcott for the Trucker's Jamboree back in July. You're right, it's a great little museum. Got to see my buddy Hank Good's Highway Hilton again, hadn't seen it in 8 years
When you started this, I bet you didn’t think you would become a movie editor. I am going to give your style a name, like the Ken Burns effect. The DTT effect. Safe travels.
@@rce8540 nope as Dan said gets over 300k miles out of them. Double coins been around for around 15yrs now,, far from junk. My dad buys them by the container load. They last as long as Yokohama Michellin at nearly half the price
That’s a new type of pontoon boat from Seedoo called “Switch”, they are pretty cool. The truck museum is really nice since the expansion, seen it during the jamboree this year😎
Truck and trailer looking good Dan , For sure I thought Bailey put on 20 pounds looking at that camera 😂😂😎 Under 4 bucks a gallon that's good , I think you was just cruising around the truck stop So everybody can see what a bad ass set up you have 😁😎 Plus It cools your engine down and Turbo correctly , Be safe take care yourself Dan
@ 12:42: Preview of your Deere load? Safe Travels. Give Miss Bailey a hug, smooches, & scratches behind her ears. Do as she says..she who must be obeyed……
Another BRILLIANT video Dan the tour around the truck stop was cool loved that. Its always nice seeing Bailey too 😊. Keep it up buddy and stay safe 👍 👍
seemed like everytime I had a tire change, some of my lug nut covers would fall off. I was doing a walk around one afternoon, actually saw one fall off.
Hey Dan, I really enjoy your videos! Growing up my Dad was a trucker. Missed my calling by not doing it myself. So I don't know when you were at the I-80 but I was there on the 19th. My wife and I have been traveling the last month. And I told her I wanted to stop at the I-80 truck stop to see it. Would have loved to have met you! We are from Ohio and I know you have been thru our area as you have stopped at North Baltimore at the truck stops.
TH-cam Lumnah Acres just purchased a like new 14'x48' HD Vinyl TARP....CHEAP!!! One side is black and the other side is a BillBoard AD. I guess billboards now are on vinyl tarps....which are easier to put up. His tarp said STATE FAIR dates.... so it was obsolete. Has a pocket for a rod for hanging. Guess a few hours putting in Tarp Strap holes rings would make it a nice $ saving for a trucker.
Not sure how current the rate per mile is on that trailer door but I got 17 c/loaded mile and $10 lay-over $5 tarp charge when I was OTR. That was 50 years ago. Slept in a 48 in. bunk also. Those were the bad old days.
Dan I wish that you would have got ahold of me when you was in Des Moines Iowa!! I live just south on I-35 down by Osceola Iowa!! I’m just a mile or so off of the interstate!! I’d definitely like to buy you lunch or even breakfast or dinner!! What ever time of the day would be I’d definitely love to buy you a meal of some sort for sure buddy!! I guess the next time you run threw iowa let me no please!! I absolutely love watching your videos and have been watching your videos for years and years!! Remember Dan keep up all the hard work buddy!!!!
I believe the John Deere load is being staged at an old race track parking lot in east Moline, illinoiiiiiz. I drove by there last week when loading insulation and saw a few Mercer trucks in the line
Hi Dan , great video . I follow along your journeys. I noticed a uncommon way you spell your wife’s name Teresa . Without the H . My wife’s name is Theresa also. Interesting . 👍
Hello Dan (and Bailey)... Been meaning to ask (spose I could've asked Google)...What's the max. speed for trucks? and is the spread axle a preferred configeration on most trailers?
No max speed on trucks... Most large carriers have governors on their company trucks... Split tandems on a flatbed 48' or 53' is preferred... A 53' stepdeck flatbed doesn't have split tandems Edit: saw your name... I'm a foamer too lol
Speed limit is whatever the state sets it to. Spread axles allow more weight on those axles. As long as you have a 10 foot gap? You can have 40,000 pounds. (‘Regular’ trailers can only have 34,000). You still are limited to 80,000 total.
@@starkcd I don't keep up with the max. weights over here( New Zealand) but I think it's 50 tonne for the heavy, bigger trucks. A lot of B trains plus quad trailers( semi's & 4 axle) . Blanket speed throughout NZ is 90 km/h.. cars 100 km/h. Thanks for your reply :-)
@@matt89108 how about inflation, grocery, rent, travel, hotel prices? Or the interest rates going up? 2023 is looking worse. Check out TH-cam where his own Administration Officials crediting Potato Head with gas prices falling. So I guess they don't talk to each other. But we're still around $2.00 a gallon higher when he first occupied this position. Higher gas prices started on day one. Way before Russia invaded Ukraine. However, he doesn't sit anyways. He uses diapers.DNC is now ABO, Always Blaming Others.
Hey that was me in the red kenworth pulling the conestoga!!! I was super excited when I seen you!

Don’t remember you hauling Boats before. Too Bad you couldn’t get a 3rd boat on your very fine looking and functioning Dorsey Trailer. 😬👍
Hi Bailey👍👍👍
Hello Dan and Bailey good to hear from you two! Your truck is looking good Dan 👍 please keep the videos rolling and you two have a safe drive...

Yep, went to museum early August. Pretty cool stuff.
Hay Dan. Should get some pipe sounds rollin slow through the truck stops. Low rpm straight pipe cats sounds awesomeness !

Enjoy your videos more than any others I watch. You just have it figured out. Not to long, not to short. Informational. Just perfect. Thank you.
My dad's been using double coins for years. Good hard wearing affordable tires.

Hey Dan you might want to change your icon picture to the truck you have now. Lol
That Hicklin store used to be a customer of mine. Cool. Good people.
Alot of hands are using them double coins, I definitely use um for the wagon
As of today, 9/21/2022, I'm a Mercer guy Dan! lol.
Thanks Dan and Bailey from this Veteran to you great video.
Are you going to trade in all 3 of your Semi trucks 🚚 and Buy a Newer long sleeper truck ??
Thanks Dan for posting. Hope you and Bailey have a Blessed day.

Have you ever thought about. Redoing/remodel the inside the sleeper?
Keep up the good to see you and Bailey again
Thanks Dan

Hi Dan , Have I heard you will? You said 400 thousand mile for the drive tires!!!
Please explain, thanks.

Spoiling us with all the videos, Thanks Dan be safe
1:10 Did you see what happened with the HP❓ Who did he stop❓
Have you considered changing to single wider tires from the traditional dualies❓
Brilliant thanks Dan 🌵🇬🇧👍
Great video, welcome to Grimes/Des Moines, Iowa. I was at Hicklin just the other day.
Peace be upon you 🙋🏻♂️
Good evening Welcome 🙋🏻♂️
Another good video Dan KEEP ON TRUCKIN 👍 🇺🇲 🚛 🐘

Cool video Dan 👍
A lot of times they’re are signs on those fuel pump water faucets that day non potable. Do you shower in that?
I've seen those lug nut covers take out a windshield.
They should be illegal.
Did you say the drive tires last 3-400,000 miles???
Hi Dan
What is this piece of music?
It starts at 0.40 min
LG from Germany
Dan, would you ever consider becoming a trainer and letting someone ride with you to get their CDL?
Dan, you're the first person I have ever heard say they like Blimpie. I didn't know they were still in business.
Oldest fast service sub company and yes they are, but still rated the worst.
Dan do you still own the other two Pete's you've owned? And if so what are your plans for them.
Dan be careful getting back on the highway with no seat belt. "DDSS"👀
Time flys, already one year in the 🛻

What happened to your peterbuilt with the rebuilt engine?
Dang should have caught up with you. You unloaded minutes from my house
Nice
Prices are still too high for diesel!

Your parking valve is supposed to go a distinct pop. Not psssssss. My inspector would not allow this.
300k out of drive tyres 😳. I’m lucky if I get 80/90k out of drive tyres and we run mid lift and tag axle units.
Say Mr. Dan - Any more thoughts on a paint scheme? Just curious. Another very enjoyable vid.
Doesn't seem like a year since you got your Vette. Lol
Bet that truck is a sight to see at night!
Risky with no straps over the boats 🤔
Did I miss an episode, what happened to your load of pipe?
A year as gone by fast don't seem like you had that truck that long
It definitely doesn't seem like you have had the new truck for a year.
Another great video brother keep them coming from the imperial co California.
They say money cant buy you happiness but it can buy me a boat it can buy me a truck to pull it. Ba ha
👍
That’s good music Dan. Where did you find that.
Is being good at math critical in being a good trucker???
No.
$2700 on fuel = FJB
No sitting President is responsible for fuel prices.

Double coins are junk. Sorry that’s my opinion.
