Alice, you mentioned the 'mattress heater' you had in the truck, and how well it worked. About 55 years ago I was driving for Frito-Lay, and along with another driver, Dick L., we were the first sleeper team to ever run for Frito-Lay. We were running out of Vancouver, WA into Montana. It was October 1978 and the tractor we were driving was a 1975 Freightliner cabover. This truck was not set up for sleeper operations. The only heater it had for the entire truck was one that was situated under the passenger's seat. It had a hard time keeping the inside of the tractor warm, much less the sleeper bunk. We stopped in Missoula, Montana and bought one of those mattress heaters so that the guy in the bunk could get some sleep. It worked amazingly well. It kept us warm enough for the entire winter, running one run a week to Miles City, MT and one to Ogden, Utah. Your story brought back interesting memories. Keep up the good work, enjoy your videos, and could you sometimes tell where you are going, maybe more often than in just the first video of a trip. I don't always get to see everyone, even though I try. 😀
Well I do hope there is nothing seriously wrong with your eye Alice. Martin no rest for the wicked. You just never get a break. Don’t burn yourself out. I really like your videos. You guys really show what Trucking Together is really all about. Hard work from both of you to. Anywho have a great and a safe day. Happy trails and happy motoring.
I have to say that I look forward to watching your videos every day, you guys show what is a trucker life OTR without giving up like many other youtubers that when it gets hard they just quit and go Uber. You guys are way smarter than all of them. God bless you on your travels!
Two more great video's you guys!! Alice you had it all,great scenery,three for three on the trains and topped it off with a outstanding bridge!!! Hope you feel better😋 Stay safe thanks for taking us along!!!👌👍🤙😘
Your air fryer can do almost anything including baking cakes, I also boil my breakfast egg in mine soft-boiled and just add a minute or two for hardboiled.
My Wife and I were full-time rv'ers for a couple of years. We used the Newave gold induction "hotplate" and loved it. OFC you have to ensure that whatever you use has to be magnetic in order to work. I like it because it is flat and easy to store. Lately, I have been experimenting with our air fryer. So far I have cooked pork chops and steak and of course the normal snacky things as well with great success! I have so much respect for you two and enjoy watching you all. Thanks for sharing a part of your life with us. As always May God bless You and your family.
If you all have a tractor supply store near yall you can buy oil washer fluid an additives cheaper. I started saving an extra 300 bucks a month by going to them.
That swollen eye l would guess is from an insect bite, hope you get rid of that headache also. Enjoy, relax on your time off and Martin seems to me gets the most sleep when on the road because it's mandatory
I just went down to Vancouver, WA from Longview on Tuesday, so the video looks very familiar. I live in a beautiful area of the state! Thankful every single day! Keep the videos coming!!!
So what do i do on vacation? Watch TRUCKING TOGETHER of course. Seems this cold and cough season is pretty bad. Been under the weather more this spring than any other year on memory. Glad you are getting better. Sounds like if Martin can sleep while Mike is driving, he's a keeper
Alice get you the knew Air fryer oven that came out this year I believe it's around $200. Or $240. I think you'd love having it you could cook anything and everything in it from breakfast to lunch & supper good luck check it out
Alice you need a small cassette toilet just for number 1, because it’s not good to be dehydrated, and when you come to a rest stop you can empty it, consider it…..they don’t smell.
I air-fry 🥩 all the time in my Dash. I don't recommend Dash brand. Mine began flaking Teflon coating after 2 wks use. I bought a silicon liner so the food doesn't pick up flakes, and continue to use it. On several youtube channels I've seen people cooking meat in the toaster oven style air fryers. Drive friendly gal!
Hi Alice and Martin such an awesome video as always but alice seeing your so multi talented being a mum ,truck driver , tyre repair adviser , accountant ,so maybe when you get your new grill we can get a 30 minute cooking show while you do your 30 minute break ( just asking for a friend haha ) wishing you and martin safe miles cheers from tim in queensland australia ( keep on trucking )
My brother had the same exact problem with shutting down for no reason, another driver with the same cat 3406 he had did it to him, long story short it was the diaphragm in the fuel pump had a small crack, he told them to check it and they (mechanics) couldn’t find nothing wrong with it so they put it back together and sent him out, happened again going down elk, got it stopped, set there for a little bit gathering himself started it back up, the second time they took it apart they found the leak,had to use a magnifying glass to see it. After that no problems. Turned out to be a long story after all.sorry. Keep on truckin and making $$$
I hope you feel better soon Alice. You're one tough cookie. I had sticker shock when you showed the price for the washer fluid. The get you by the short hairs because they know the nobody is going to go out of their to look for a Walmart or some other store to buy it. You want it that bad then pay our rip off price. Hope you made it home ok and Martin can fix the bunk heater and order you a #GreenAPU Be safe out there you two.
I love your videos and have been following for a while. I really hope you guys continue to crush it and are successful and healthy and happy. In other truck stop videos there are videos of a lot of careless drivers causing damage while pulling out and backing in. I am not trying to be critical. but is it wise to keep the hood open to go inside? That lot was not busy at the time and Alice has great judgement, but I worried she'd come back to a hood torn off through no fault of her own.
I’m on 2 weeks now of it, it got both eyes and caused massive throat swelling. Doctor finally gave me antibiotics (eye drops and oral) and I’m just now getting better
Whatever it is, it was highly contagious. Everyone at work was complaining about a sore throat. I can’t remember ever being this sick for so long. I even lost my voice!!! Hope you get better soon.
Great video! Like the comment on the "69" mile marker, I use that number on my fuel card waiting to see if anyone in the office notices it. 🤣 hope you don't have a major issue with the eye and stuff, and definitely ground Martin for stealing your squirter juice
Y'all take care truck easy and be safe. Get that eye looked at wow looks painful. Hhmmm wonder if there a new kw in Michigan 😉 someone has to go pick up with a 3406 cat lol joking martin I know your a Cummins guy time to head east be safe
Alice I have a question. If Martin is driving with Michael is Martin going to go out with the other driver also? So do you have to do another trip to Washington? Great video. Miss not seeing Martin.
Just wondering, do you guys use anything other than the blue washer fluid, or does it have anti-freeze (for winter) and 'rain beading' compounds in it already? I only ask because down here (where luckily we don't get snow, so no need for anti-freze) I usually just use distilled water with a mix of Rain-X (for 'rain beading') during the wet, and a touch of rubbing alcohol to cut through the oil/road-grime (and bugs) that build up over time, since the commercial washer fluid blends are so expensive Cheers from Australia, and hoping y'all stay safe and healthy.
Hey. U All Doing Ok? Like the Video and Scenery. Why Wipe Truck after Wash it When Air Going Down Road Will Dry it Off?? I Don't Wipe Passenger Vehicle With Towels after I Wash Them! Have Owned Few Muscle Cars as 72 Roadrunner, 71 Camaro, Few 80s Monte Carlo SS, 80 Trans Am and 87 350 Tpi Iroc z! U Should Change Steering wheel, Wood Are Oooggly!! Yes I Had A Grant Wood Steering wheel on My Road Runner for While cos was a Gift but Changed to Black Grant with 3 Black Spoke and Look Much Better!!

Your air fryer can do almost anything including baking cakes, I also boil my breakfast egg in mine soft-boiled and just add a minute or two for hardboiled.
10:05 brings back memories of OTR 2 years ago.
I has a video crossing that exact bridge into Oregon. Those bridges and curvy roads are cool

Hope you made it home ok and Martin can fix the bunk heater and order you a #GreenAPU
Be safe out there you two.
don’t want a green APU not wanting to spend all that money for youtube hype when there are many other brands I can pick up used that work just as good
Hope your eye is better 👍🏽
I love your videos and have been following for a while. I really hope you guys continue to crush it and are successful and healthy and happy.

I like Tyler
So weird that same crud went through my house both me and my daughter had the one eye just like yours. It’s been kicking my but for 3 weeks.
I’m on 2 weeks now of it, it got both eyes and caused massive throat swelling. Doctor finally gave me antibiotics (eye drops and oral) and I’m just now getting better
Whatever it is, it was highly contagious. Everyone at work was complaining about a sore throat. I can’t remember ever being this sick for so long. I even lost my voice!!! Hope you get better soon.
Always missing you guys when you come threw the i 5 ag station. Been trying to get a sticker.
do you work there? or pass through as a driver?
Work their till the 15th then fulltime in trucking school.
Part of my decision to change career was watching your youtube vids...
@@MichaelEllis-yh9pd I’ll see if Martin can leave one with whomever is there for you when he goes through this Sunday afternoon/night
Working 3 to 11 sunday
Tyler punched you while you were asleep 🤣
and that’s why we don’t talk about fight club lol
Put Crome grab handles on your hoods 😮
they still won’t use em lol
Be careful of the ThaiTea. That has about 2 cups of sugar per 1 gallon.
Do you ever use rain-x products . Thank you for posting all the great videos on your TH-cam channel
nope we don’t on the trucks
I like the idea of the meal prep service you were doing for a while. Did that get tiresome after a few months? Keep on Truckin'
Great video! Like the comment on the "69" mile marker, I use that number on my fuel card waiting to see if anyone in the office notices it. 🤣 hope you don't have a major issue with the eye and stuff, and definitely ground Martin for stealing your squirter juice

Left overs ? Spaghetti always tastes better the second day .
welcome to Allergy Season
Alice I have a question. If Martin is driving with Michael is Martin going to go out with the other driver also? So do you have to do another trip to Washington? Great video. Miss not seeing Martin.
What model is your green Peterbilt
I might need to have some Eye Drops with on the road. Allergeries don't ya thing?
Hammer Down 😍
I can not do anything privately. Camera in my eye.
you look like me when my Alergies kicks up!
But $3+- extra for washer fluid is better than $10-15 extra for some other stuff that one might have to pay, like oil or such, right?
that it is.. can’t believe how much they want for oil at truck stops - robbery!
@@TruckingTogether oh, and sometimes leftovers taste better than original, at least I think so!
I’m the same I do not eat left overs. Nope not gonna happen.
Me too not gonna happen
What are the small lights for on the windshield facing to the front?, TY, love your scenic video's,(never been North of Arizona)
Anti glare lights. It’s a old school thing
Just wondering, do you guys use anything other than the blue washer fluid, or does it have anti-freeze (for winter) and 'rain beading' compounds in it already?
I only ask because down here (where luckily we don't get snow, so no need for anti-freze) I usually just use distilled water with a mix of Rain-X (for 'rain beading') during the wet, and a touch of rubbing alcohol to cut through the oil/road-grime (and bugs) that build up over time, since the commercial washer fluid blends are so expensive

What happened to the Factor meals?
Martin still shows them regularly on his videos 🤷🏼♀️
You can cook a steak in your air fryer. I do it all the time.
That's as bad as leaving unless I have a cup of milk in the milk carton
You need to put that big kid in time out for that
That's funny
Just asking I noticed you have Illinois plates y'all live in California how does that work?
trucks are not like cars where you register where you live. They are Ceva’s plates and Ceva plates all tractors out of IL
@@TruckingTogether thank you very much I kinda thought so. Really enjoy y'alls content keep it up keep..keep trucking
I left the empty jug as a pee jug 💀
Sounds like them hood rubbers r dry. Squeak squeak.

I see Ceva trucks here in Michigan, who knows maybe another team truck doing long haul’s.😂😂 or maybe buying another truck. Have to wait and see.
