I always love to see a train in your videos. When I first moved to Iowa .. over 8 yrs ago... the thing that caught my attention immediately was TRAINS TRAINS and more trains. Now whenever I go back to my quiet country place in Texas for a few months I miss the trains so much. I never hear or see a train at my place. Trains got into my soul. Could never stay away from them now.

A few years ago, on one my Harley trips to Montana from NJ, on the way back I stopped to see my other brother in Hinton. Left Sioux City, and was looking for a nice curvy road (Since Iowa is noted for roads that run north and south and east and west only), and saw Rte 141 - the only curvy road in western Iowa. So yes, at one time in 2003 I rode through Mapleton, Iowa! Green HD FXDXT with NJ tags.

Very, very enjoyable videos, one and all, and I greatly envy the sanctuary and escape the truck, open road, and no-rush/no-hurry attitude bring you. Getting into an auto and hitting the interstate, away from big cities of course, can be therapeutic and inspire me to contemplate my life and my relationship to the world at large. I appreciate your narrative and perspective on the reality of owning and operating a commercial vehicle and of course maintaining it. I also enjoy getting to know Opie and see how he can adjust to the rigors of riding/zonking out in the back of your cab. Getting on board with you through your video helps me decompress at the end of the day. Thank you, and continue to "be safe".

O-H-I-O Porter greetings 🇺🇸 Have you ever thrown a hood spring before? That’s one unusual thing to break & very unusual sound as well when it does. Was that a little L8000 Ford outside the truck wash? Those were some sweet little trucks. A good ride. I’ve been to that town in Illinois. What a nice town & friendly to boot. 💥🥰✌️
