 Diesel you excited to be in the truck. I'm very excited man. Look at my face. This is my excited face Look at that. These new headlights that they put in here I'm gonna be so much brighter and easier to change because now all I gotta do is change the ball But I don't think you have to change the whole headlight. It's like a new grill New little connector thingy in there The mirror is the same but those stains are gone because it's a brand new hood so that's nice Looks so good Brands bank and you ask me Are you ready to go or something diesel? Why are you so impatient? You ready to go? We have to wait for Mandy to do her work. She's finding our destination for us Way out in Virginia. It's 1400 miles though. It takes her a little bit of thinking Still faster than I can think Over it like 80% or any almost Come on Mandy. You can do it. You can do it. She's still on vacation apparently Once she tells us how far it's gonna be I Will use my own brain my very own brain To determine how long it's gonna take us to get there and then I'm gonna call our customer and tell them when I'm gonna be there And I'm gonna be accurate and I'm gonna be on time But first Mandy has to work. Oh wow that's an 88 to 91. Wow Tell me what to do Mandy. I lied it out. 10-4 Mandy 2007 there's two thousand three hundred seventy-nine kilometers That is 24 hours of solid highway driving then you got to add in traffic construction sleeping You can only drive 11 hours a day once we hit the states So 24 hours of driving let's say we're gonna stretch that Will give us 30 hours to get there that gives us six extra hours on the way down there That should be plenty for rest stops and construction and traffic. So six extra hours 30 hours So that's That's a lot of time. It won't take us 30 hours of driving, but we're just Overestimating right just to be safe so we're it's better to be early than late So we can do a thousand kilometers today. That leaves us with 1,300 1,400 do a thousand kilometers tomorrow that leaves us with about 400 three to 400 kilometers So three to four hours left. So it's Wednesday today Wednesday Thursday Friday morning I'll still have to drive about four four to five hours. Say we start our day Let's say around eight o'clock probably eight nine ten eleven twelve Plus we lose an hour going that way I'm probably gonna get there right during lunch on Friday between twelve and one Road again It's a good song It's a good feeling to get money again that dump truck is turning even though he doesn't have his turn signal on Nice lack of use of the turn signal my friend very nice expertly executed Fraction of a hair of a speed slower frustrated at everything on the road trucker cops a Morris, Manitoba Whenever you drive through here going this way it means you're leaving Canada about to make some money Making money tires are finally rolling again. You hear that beautiful hum That's the hum of money. I could use some of that right now I've spent quite a bit in the last month or two pretty much all we're gonna be doing is driving driving and Driving for a long time. So those of you who like these road vlogs once again Just on the other side of the line is the United States How does that make you feel diesel almost in the United States? That crosswalk that's not a crosswalk buddy the crosswalks over there by the lights Yeah, diesel. He's got a dog. You see the dog man Was that a whistle? Diesel My my like her do you guys will see you on the other side up goes the gate Before they change their mind diesel states of America, North Dakota United States our destination Diesel did you find the grass again? You find the grass Top sniffing a beer cans people shouldn't be drinking beer at the truck stop anyway That's what I never understand. They sell beer at the truck stops in the States Isn't that sort of encouraging some illegal behavior Saying maybe they shouldn't make it so accessible to people who are driving for a living majority of drivers would never Think about doing that, but you know that there's some idiot out there Who would take that as an invitation to get drunk and hit the road you know what I mean Doesn't make sense to me Yeah, so we're here in North Dakota At Grand Forks Flying J. Grand Forks, North Dakota So we're gonna run inside here grab a quick bite to eat because I haven't stocked up my fridge because I haven't been on the road for so long so You need to find a Walmart somewhere nearby here somebody wants to talk to me always when I'm vlogging No, they just commented they tweeted me who tweeted me you're getting a shout out That's it you're getting a shout out. Oh, it's Shelly. I Think you will enjoy the Tim Horton's dark girls coffee Give it a shot. Hmm Well, if Shelly says give it a shot guess I'll have to give it a shot cool So from here, we still got a long ways to go. We've probably been driving went two and a half to three hours We want to drive 10 or 11 today yet. So better get going This place is always packed full of these These what do you call them the wings the wings for those wind turbines always tons of them out here Because they make them right nearby Transport them around and I guess they got a deal to park here. It's like I saw at least six or seven of those things in here anyways We got a little bite to eat Got some fuel forgot to wash the windshield. I know I'm a little rusty. I haven't been on the road for a while Every you guys don't mind the bugs do you? They're just bugs think of it this way every bug on my windshield is one less bug that'll be pestering you Absolutely, I'm doing the world of service back in the truck. I'm back on to my CNN kick Yeah, I've seen what's wrong with the world Apparently the world is still ending Totally forgot about it Totally forgot about that fact First day on the inside like this because the first day I always just come and throw everything in sleeper back there And these new headlights tonight. I hope they aim them pretty very frustrating If they aim if they didn't aim them properly that they just installed them and didn't actually take the time to set them Oh, then I got to go in your figure out how to set the new set set the new headlights And if they're too high I'm gonna be blinding everybody and getting flashed or all over the place And they're too low. I'm not gonna be able to see anything Guess we'll find out very soon in the next couple of hours. That's a usual first day on the trip getting somewhere We're in going somewhere But in order to get somewhere you got to go through a whole lot of nowhere that makes sense We should make it down into Kentucky the rest of the way on Friday, then we got a reload I've already got my reload that's headed right back to Winnipeg So it's gonna be the same road straight back, which is great because I forgot all my shirts at home I don't know if I have any spare shirts in this truck here I Took them all in to wash right the only shirt I got the one that I'm wearing right now I hope I have at least one extra so that we can make it through the next couple of days Till I get back home. We should be home Sunday night. That's what I'm thinking That is a short one, but I'm not gonna stay home long I'm just gonna turn around go straight back out If we'll sit around for this guy, we did enough sitting around already Wapers on here. I'm starting to rain or something here. What is this? Moisture falling from the sky Stop number do of today numero do Mero dose I think number two. I don't three languages. So I'd stop for Coffee number two here. We had Timmy's from home from this morning And now we got our pilot coffee our intense energy. We got to go about another four or five hours yet So I need my energy. I mean I could make it without any coffee But it's just more fun with coffee. You know what I mean? It's just more fun. Well, there's one good point today We drove through some rain and it washed all the bugs off It's a good thing. I didn't scrub it like crazy before mother nature cleaned it for me Yeah, I see this white Peterbilt sticking out here. It's got a custom sleeper on the back. You see that? Right there. That's a big custom sleeper. Oh, it's a moving company, of course Anyone know why those moving companies have such nice trucks? They must make some really good money moving people stuff around Yeah, you would There's much money they make He's curious probably rude to ask those always rude to ask how much money someone makes But I'm asking anyway, how much money do those guys make why are their trucks always so nice? I want one. I Know their job is harder than the average trucker just because they got to move everybody's stuff Probably a lot of times got to move it all up and down a couple of flights of stairs and everything Plus they got to deal with Not breaking any of the people's stuff It is packed a flying J in Wisconsin black River Falls Chos absolutely cut everywhere every little nook and cranny has a truck Crammed in there Found ourselves a spot out of the way It's a spot now as I said it is thank you We say it's a spot. It's a spot Feel kind of bad for these guys here they kind of got blocked in That RV back there underneath the light totally got blocked in That's always sad, I know That was difficult sometimes, but I don't have to block people in guys It's just annoying in the morning because then they can't leave right and then you get your sleeper door banged on like that motorhome there Totally blocked in even this guy here that that other truck there who nosed in Blocked in this red truck here as well Red truck can only back up so far. I Know probably still be able to get out, but it'll be tight I'm gonna be really tight But Anyways, we're just Hanging out enjoying nature See what's the fuel price here? It's cheap. That's per US gallon US gallon is 3.78 liters It's like what? 75 cents a liter something like that Something like that 70 maybe even 70 Ridiculously cheap anyways, I will be fueling in the morning Either here at South Boyk, I haven't decided yet, but either way we made it to our destination Made it as far as we wanted to diesel is sniffing out some stuff in the bush here diesel They probably don't got the same snakes here. No more snakes here for you, bud. Sorry. He likes to chase the snakes at home now So one bites them on the face That won't happen. Don't worry. I wouldn't let that happen I'll save you diesel But oh, I've been paying attention all the other drivers out here with moose bumpers and bull bars and whatnot in front of their truck And I almost went with alley arc They made it's a company based at a Winnipeg. I think they make them in Winnipeg But they only make medium-duty bumpers. I went to go look at them. They're not that tough They'd stop a deer, but they wouldn't even come close to stopping a moose There's buys and grill guards. That's the name of the company. They make really tough moose bumpers They're also based at a Winnipeg or have a They have a manufacturing plant there and also herd the brand I went with herd road train bumpers Inspired from the road trains from Australia, they're tough But if you're looking for the toughest of the tough Unless if I missed some line of bumpers that alley arc makes they don't make heavy-duty bumpers. They make medium-duty, I would say Not that they're bad. They're very popular, but they're not the toughest out there from what I've found Maybe I'm wrong Diesel are you ready to go to bed? I am The first night is always chaos in the truck Always chaos every time because I jump in the truck. I just throw everything in here, right? And then I Take off and leave on the trip and I drive all day at the end of my day I have to spend extra time here cleaning everything up That's why I'm gonna edit this video tomorrow because I got to spend time today Cleaning up my mess. I'm not the cleanest of the neat freak kind of guys But I like it to be organized. I know where everything is and right now I don't know where everything is To work on that a little bit.
