I gotta tell you buddy. I absolutely love your attitude towards driving, towards safety, towards respect. Those are just so many quality traits that a lot of people have forgotten. Respect. There are so many people that just don't have the respect that they should have been brought up with. Even though we know Gen Xers don't really have any skills! But you do an awesome job. And that Pete is just fine looking!😆😆😆

Thank you so much for your kind words, my friend. These new drivers nowadays are something else buddy, no respect for anything whatsoever. But not all new drivers are bad most of them are pretty good, but there’s quite a bit that are bad.

Love your vids. I started because you go to Colorado sometimes and that’s home. Currently in the Deep South. Anyway you go to places I grew up. Ya Buddy. Just enjoy your journeys and your colorful commentary. I’m about the same so can relate. Love when the 4 letter words start flying. Ya Buddy. I always wanted to drive truck but life had other plans. Love your truck, Beautiful rig Bruh !!! If you ever do a load past Denver into the Rockies I’d love to see that one. Plus I have family on Kansas City and the state. Seems like your route is in areas that I’m familiar with. I just love when you chew out other drivers on the road, sounds like me……lol. Be safe and keep on trucking

Thank you very much. I appreciate your kind words. If I go past Denver into Rockies, it’ll have to be in the summer time. I’m not messing around with snow up there lol My first trip ever in a semi truck through the Rockies in January 2006 and I almost died. I’ll have to tell that story in one of my videos soon. Enjoy and be safe out there. 👍🏻

Every time I replace one side of my lights, the other side goes out in the coming weeks or months. I started changing both when the other goes out: look better, although it costs more, and I replace bulbs less often. :)

I will end up replacing the other side as well because these new ones are a bit darker in color.

Five hundred dollars would have surprised me as well and I am not a trucker. That is steep. Are you allowed to negotiate or is it take it or leave it? TY for the awesome videos. Wish you would have gotten unloaded when you arrived.....Safe travels! Shawnie from South Florida.

I appreciate you 🙏🏼 we negotiated prior to booking a load with broker but we don’t usually know how much they are getting paid. Sometimes but very rarely we can find out from shippers. We can’t negotiate after we book the load.

@@OTRBandit It’s pathetic how much they can make from a driver! I used to admit “yeah a broker doesn’t have as much liability as a driver, maybe like 10% where the driver has 90%”. No, the broker has less than 1% of the liability!!! For a broker to be making more money than a waiter/waitress can make on tips in a day from just one to three loads is beyond unacceptable.
