Another top video Ken. I wanted to say a big thank you to not just you but to all you truck drivers out there who make our lives easier by doing all the hard work and getting our foods pretty much to one place so we can buy foods that make us happy
Thanks for the video kenny and great work as always mate, it's good to see you got to brissy safely for your 24 mate, I hope you have a safe week mate... take care and till next time
If you live in Australia do an East coast run and you'll do the same drive it's about 4000km from top to bottom I drive Brisbane to Melbourne often because my family is in Melbourne and I'm in Brisbane
@@jamesru1i did the Melb to Bris drive for many years also for the same reason. don’t do it any longer as we’re all together in GC now but i do miss the drives!
Just for interest My father in law had a cane farm at Millaroo farther Up along the river past Clare He grew watermelons 🍉 as a rotating crop. Anyway this is 40yrs ago. The moral of the story is, the semi trailers would put heaps of straw on the bully of the trailer and would stack the melons on Top. The semi would go into the paddock. They would have a solid piece of timber sticking out of the side of the trailer with one person standing on that timber. One person picked up the melon and throw it up to the bloke who in turn passed it to a person in the semi trailer. We had turns 😂😂 And those melons got heavy. Keep those wheels turning 👍
another great video and liked the EWD shots, trying to work all that stuff out with BFM etc.. appreciate some more on hours used & remaining through the week/fortnight. Used to work weekends (office bound during Mon-Fri - used the truck driving for my sanity) running Coles/WW for Linfox, ambient & fridge Larapinta to Gold & Sunshine coast (about 14yrs ago) so not used to Electronic Diaries & not much on Uncle Google about them in AU. Very relaxing vids with a coffee... making me feet itchy for the peace & quiet of a cab again.... cheers.
I really enjoy the video you make it is really great seeing this beautiful country of ours from a truck and I can't wait for your next vlog 👍👍👍👍👍👍🚛🚛🚛🚛🚛🚛🚛
Thanks for another great trip Ken. It's been about 2 years now since I last travelled up the Bruce H/Way to Rocky and Gin GIn is always my stop and rest point for 20 mins. But I noticed that what use to be the Mobil servo just up from where you stopped is now BP. Life should be a little bit easier too when they get the Gympie Bypass opened up. I'm guessing it will take about 15 to 20 mins off the trip.
Another Rippa Rita, good to see they have kept the facades of Childers and other country towns similar to what is was in the early part of the 20th Century. Mate just diversing saw about 20 box’s of yours in the railway yards at Cairns on Wednesday in a siding , would most of those go to WA. Keep up the great work mate Stay safe and keep on trucking.
Hi Ken I see the roads have changed so much ,The Bruce highway was a lousy road full of patches .nice to drive on it now …tell me Ken do you fell like just walk away from the Trucks ,,that’s what I did just gave it away it got to much for me ,always on the road never at home ..One year later I was jumping out of my skin !I missed the trucks so much ..Any way me old son you take care of your self drive safe best wishes to your Family …By the way when you stop trucking. You have a new job in Videos 🙏😁❤️🦘🇦🇺😀😀👍👍👍
I’m just starting to get a walk away plan going now lol,… in a few years I’ll probably just work 6 months and then home for 6 months,… want to do some more woodworking lol
another top video mate as always ,it was great to see familiar road from childers,tairo and Gympie as i live in Hervey bay (from an ex truckie)you,re doing a top job mate
Hi there from U.K. thanks for another very interesting video… just love the countryside & your life.. Am I right in thinking the markets are near Oxley? Used to live there years ago!😂👍🏻
You made good time from Gin Gin to Brisvàgas .Tiaro is about 12km north of my place and I avoid it like the plague on friday arvos. Work is scheduled to start on Tiaro bypass around march 2024 or when Gympie is opened . Keep safe mate ,thanks for taking us along .👍🇦🇺
Love your videos mate. Childers born and bred and ive seen you pass through in 2 videos now. Mum (a filipino too) still lives there! Keep up the great vids! Julius from NZ
Goodday Ken, They need to start building more bypasses in QLD, B Doubles down the centre of Childers that is just a recipe for disaster. It is great to see you got all your work done without a break in the Log Book. 5 hour's & 45 minutes right on the nose must be AFM goodie the benefits of AFM. ( Advanced Fatigue Management). Mayhem absolute mayhem here in Melbourne on the docks with the cyber attack & the biggest wharf DPW shut down Thursday and Friday due to industrial strike. If you are coming to Melbourne prepare for the worse. Take Care Cheers Louis Kats 👍
Another great vlog ken, makes my day waking up seeing you have uploaded another video, what did the other truckie say when you pulled out of Gin Gin I couldn’t hear him ?
Hey Ken love the video I know exactly where you are when you travel the Bruce just one request when you do a scan around the gauges could you show the amount of kms these trucks do just a thought and have a safe trip wherever you are travelling around this big country Cheers
Funny I saw you add the olde pictures of Childers I was going through there on the night of the Palace Backpackers fire that killed all those kids! We didn’t know what was happening on the night but were diverted around the back of the town, and found out what happened the next day just how bad it was
The roads over there don't seem to have Potholes LIKE WE HAVE IN NZ. Also, not much road maintenance going on like we have here in NZ. Do you get pulled over with the Police Patrols?
Kenny, when your not homeless, where's home and I'm sure many will be surprised how long you are away on the road. Just off northbound Burpengary BBQ & B&H is 2 streets away. Safe travels mate
HI Ken again a fantastic video.could i ask a lot of the time. you are clearing the bugs off the windshield.would a bug screen such as Johnno has on the front of hes truck.do you think they are a help ??.what scares me is you tip the hood climb up to wash the screen.you could fall or worse fall onto a hot engine.i may sound like a thick pommie.but i say never ask never know.take care on your travels.dave.
I hope non trucking people get to see these vids to understand how hard these drivers work . A debt of gratitude owed to these guys & gals .
Thanks mate appreciate it
So true
Thanks, Ken. I simply click on others 'thumbs up' because they've written what I would.
Just an ordinary Aussie bloke doing what he needs to do, so refreshing, cheers.
Thanks mate
A ride with not so much special,as the ride before. Thats special. lol. Thanks again Ken. Keep the shining side up.
Thanks mate
Thanks Ken, another great video... 🙂
Thanks mate
Bloody good stuff Ken , keep up the good work
It's so peaceful and mesmerising just to watch the road shots and listen to good music.
Thanks so much
Monday after work sat down with a beer and a dog on my knee watching Ken, it’s not a bad life 😂
Hi Ken really enjoy sitting back with a beer later at night and enjoying you on utube. Great stuff Cheers Pete Rotorua NZ

Very picturesque up in North QLD.
Nothing beats coming on TH-cam to see a new upload mate! Just knocked off a night shift looking forward to kicking back and having a watch!
Thanks so much mate appreciate it
Just for interest
My father in law had a cane farm at Millaroo farther Up along the river past Clare
He grew watermelons 🍉 as a rotating crop.
Anyway this is 40yrs ago.
The moral of the story is, the semi trailers would put heaps of straw on the bully of the trailer and would stack the melons on Top.
The semi would go into the paddock.
They would have a solid piece of timber sticking out of the side of the trailer with one person standing on that timber.
One person picked up the melon and throw it up to the bloke who in turn passed it to a person in the semi trailer.
We had turns 😂😂
And those melons got heavy.
Keep those wheels turning 👍
Thank god for forklifts and thermo king!
Excellent content, great music played
thanks again Ken for hard Yakka totally enjoyed to ride along ,To Brisbane Marekts .cheers 😊
Another amazing video Kenny. Thanks for sharing with us.

Goodday Ken,
They need to start building more bypasses in QLD, B Doubles down the centre of Childers that is just a recipe for disaster.
It is great to see you got all your work done without a break in the
Log Book.
5 hour's & 45 minutes right on the nose must be AFM goodie the benefits of AFM. ( Advanced Fatigue Management).

Take Care

I had a quick 7 minute stop at the shell at glass house mountain then dumped the trailers off at the market

Another great vlog ken, makes my day waking up seeing you have uploaded another video, what did the other truckie say when you pulled out of Gin Gin I couldn’t hear him ?
He was saying that I should go first because he was a little slower
Another great Vid, saw a snippet of my old hometown "Gympie" (which I left in the late 70's) I hear they are working on a bypass around the town.
Yes,…and can’t come quick enough lol
Thanks
Thanks so very much Nick really appreciate it mate thanks
You are a true gipsy 😂 , ps , your adio may need cranking , I'm not sure it may be my device 😭👍
I’m using headphones now so still working on the audio lol
Hey Ken love the video I know exactly where you are when you travel the Bruce just one request when you do a scan around the gauges could you show the amount of kms these trucks do just a thought and have a safe trip wherever you are travelling around this big country
Cheers
My truck’s done over 2 million so I tend to not show it lol
Funny I saw you add the olde pictures of Childers I was going through there on the night of the Palace Backpackers fire that killed all those kids! We didn’t know what was happening on the night but were diverted around the back of the town, and found out what happened the next day just how bad it was
Terrible, just terrible
The roads over there don't seem to have Potholes LIKE WE HAVE IN NZ.
Also, not much road maintenance going on like we have here in NZ.
Do you get pulled over with the Police Patrols?
They’re in the middle of upgrading the Bruce hwy but still a lot more work to do,… ummm, not really, I get pretty well left alone
Many Thanks Like watching your show . Not much grass around Australia compared to NZ@@thehomelesstrucky
Bit late on watching but another awesome vid by a top bloke 💪
Thanks 👍
Kenny, when your not homeless, where's home and I'm sure many will be surprised how long you are away on the road. Just off northbound Burpengary BBQ & B&H is 2 streets away. Safe travels mate
I have a place in the Philippines,… I’m there for about 3 months of the year
@@thehomelesstrucky good to hear mate. Enjoy what PI has to offer.
Hi Kenny, just wanted to know do you get paid per km and if so what’s the rate like. Keep up the good work buddy.
Yes,… at the moment we’re getting 54c a k , roadtrains are on 58.50
Loving the vids Ken and look forward to each week.
how do you get around and go shopping while on your on your Breaks at the depot?
If I’m in Melbourne I’ll take the bike,… everywhere else I’ll take the work Ute or bobtail the truck around
HI Ken again a fantastic video.could i ask a lot of the time. you are clearing the bugs off the windshield.would a bug screen such as Johnno has on the front of hes truck.do you think they are a help ??.what scares me is you tip the hood climb up to wash the screen.you could fall or worse fall onto a hot engine.i may sound like a thick pommie.but i say never ask never know.take care on your travels.dave.
They help a bit,… but the 610 bonnet is a bit low for them, as for falling off, well just watch what you’re doing lol
just watched your very first video Kenny 🤣
The early ones were a bit rough lol
So mate how do I get to buy you a coffee and have a chat
