Awesome video buddy!

@ihop54 i know what you mean, same over here in europe.

I am a truck driver myself and I also have a lowered car. The civil engineers won't think about things like that because all they care about is making money and doing it fast.

@WNxRadeon Not in the northeast. Now they are on a kick of building cute little tiny ones in towns, with granite curbs and brick, roads are getting smaller, trucks bigger. They don't take into account lowbeds. I was in a town,I think in NY it had raised crosswalks, they doubled as speed bumps, what are the engineers thinking? Snowplows,lowbeds,sports cars?

That thing about two different worlds, you hit a spot with that one. I know exactly what you mean, I even feel strange for a day,out of place or something, mostly when I'm home. Maybe getting my sea legs back, so to speak. In the truck you see things go by you, at home you go by things,on the road everything is on a timer, at home time is everything. On the road you don't know where you are going to be or sleep or eat till you get there. At home you are always there.

I pulled out into a parade in a town, with the flames on my truck and the lowboy, people thought I was part of the parade, got right through town quick. Did alot of waving and smiling.

Vince, really enjoy your videos. The music and editing are really cool. You haven't posted anything for awhile. Hope all is well.

so what end up being the problem with the airbags

[WNxRadeon]

are roundabouts/turnabouts so rare in the US?

Vince as you give us commentary, take some of the focus off you and let us see the road ahead, and hear your explantion, and cut back on that loud music some. The Vid becomes more informational and we can use in the classroom. The sights, sound, and motor, and gear shift of the trucks gears.

A lot of people who are not fond of the road like I am ask me why I don't get tired of being on the road for so long and my response is;"you got to have the road enthusiasm in you" I'm going back on a road trip across America very soon,and I'm so excited I just can't wait.I hate airports preferring to drive rather than fly.you have more privacy and can stop for breaks whenever you feel like it,and you don't have to be around strangers packed in a plane like sardines.
