 When I'm not protecting a certain VIP who lives on the east coast of the United States I like to watch diesel and a chauffeur trucker Josh best channel on YouTube Good morning everybody. We've been driving a short time today already just stopped here For a quick coffee Just down the road from where we stayed. I don't think I can make this corner here. How am I supposed to get out of here now? Parking lot is a little tight here Backwards and a little too small. Oh this way because there's no exit that way, but I had to park that way because I didn't want to nose in Guess I could have just known them I don't know what's going on Haven't had my coffee yet, but I do have my coffee and I'm kind of disappointed This pilot wasn't an actual pilot. It was a road ranger which is used to be owned by pilot Or maybe it still is maybe their fuel is just pilot fuel one of those situations and I got here and they didn't have my bean to cup coffee. I had to settle for a regular coffee Dark days, I tell you Dark days I'm gonna try to get both these headers unloaded today. I might have to do the second one tomorrow morning That's okay because uh, I have time for that if I if I need to Get tomorrow morning, then I gotta pick up my trailer and Jackson tomorrow anyway, and it's pretty loaded so I can just get there whenever Go and grab it give them my empty trailer and go grab my loaded one Look at this building off to the right here No university. Look at that thing. That thing's a castle That's an actual castle It's a castle Illinois State University, I guess I guess that's what the sign said anyways Wouldn't that be cool to go to university in a castle? Like a lookout towers and everything thing looks like a medieval like king's palace or something I'd love to live in that thing. Can you imagine? Diesel that's where you should live lord weasel Lord diesel lord of all your weasel She's my castle Google that thing look at those pictures of that thing eastern Illinois university Impressive Just stop for a quick break to check the trailer and check to check the load in gordon, illinois here Thank god. We are away from the snow You don't want to fall in that hole there off to the left yikes What is this canada? It's campy Oh a trailer went through that. Oh someone nailed that hole with their trailer You should really put some guards around that or something Well, I'm gonna have to lock up my diffs Stuck in a hole stuck in a hole There we go now we disengage the diffs before we make this corner What that does is it locks all of my rear tires all of my drive tires together And this guy made the corner Right then he can make it. He's good That guy's going that way that van is going that way this pickup is coming this way All right, the pickup's gonna go. All right minivan Your turn and then my turn Four-way stops, they're wonderful who needs a roundabout Way easier to have just a four-way stop No confusion for 30 kilometers Countryside here small town after small town after small town lots of agriculture We're getting close About an hour to go to the yard where I gotta drop this off So I don't know maybe one of these farmers is gonna buy the swath or head or the header that I have on my trailer Maybe they've already bought it. They've ordered it and I'm the one to bring it to the One of these farmers here is gonna be a very happy farmer. You're welcome This looks like a a very canadian style bridge repair There's a lot of water around here though We're very close to the border with indiana now close to the southern parts of the states Of indiana and illinois this river here really spelt its banks. It's just swamp everywhere I don't know if it destroyed this bridge now. They got to rebuild it or Whatever they're doing. They just got one lane open now amazing how they can build a road through the sky Over water A couple hundred years ago. There was no way to so easily get to the other side of the river Even though you could see it right there You'd have to go way around or take a boat to cross and if you didn't have a boat You'd have to swim if the current was strong. You couldn't just swim The backs of all the people who came before us who built all of this stuff All down here in kentucky somewhere. Yeah, I don't exactly know what town we're in but We need some fuel sun went down pretty quick The weather is still beautiful down here Got an empty flatbed behind us. I'm just on our way down to jackson, Tennessee I'm still wearing my winter jacket, but I don't really need it down here I'm gonna be very lucky if I can find a spot here In one kilometer take exit 85 christmas for road drfv right drive jackson and then turn left in 630 meters In 800 meters take exit 85 christmas for road drfv right drive jackson and then turn left in 630 meters hush I know where I am Gonna be pulling into the pile of flying j here at uh x-85 like she said Jacksonville, Tennessee And we're gonna cross our fingers cross our toes and hope for a parking spot Not likely but you know last time we were here. We got lucky someone pulled out just as we were uh You know trolling around for a parking spot Sure, we're gonna get lucky this time. I see some opening spots already, but it looks like they're blocked in There's a reason they're empty Really don't know what to expect here, but we're gonna pull in and find out There's always this speedway right here that we could go to pilot first here So didn't you get further down into the u.s. Like this all the truck stops are always always packed It's so hard to find parking And you got so many trucks running around down here And just not nearly enough parking There's you got people parking on the street here already against traffic Big signs that say no parking here and they're still parked Parking you guys are fixing to get towed It'd be nice to have one of those spots right at the end of the road there That would be nice, you know See last time someone was pulling out just as we were pulling in and it worked magically I'll show you right away what I meant by that spot that's open you see this guy on the right with his park lights on That's not a parking spot There's an open parking spot off here to the left But I can't get in there because this guy's parked here. He's parked too close Might be able to sneak it in there, but No, it's He's blocked that in Not very nice Not very nice This is a very tight parking lot to begin with Bobtail in there. That's nice. I don't think we're gonna find any parking here boys Oh, what's this Bobtail guys you can park your bob tail anywhere. Why do you why do you take take up a full 72 foot spot? Another bob tail Tell you what tell you what how about this one another bob tail Park at walmart you can park Anywhere No, you choose to take up a spot that someone like me needs The end of his day. There would be a spot here. Oh great. What's this guy doing? Okay, dude You came in the eggs Came in the exit buddy Same with that guy now. We're all jammed here and I gotta do this tight corner He's waving his hands at me like I'm the problem. You came in the exit bud That was you Oh, he was taking a shortcut to the pumps. I see what he was doing This guy's sticking way out here Whoa trying to get your nose ripped off bud another bob tail more frustrating than anything showing up to these truck stops at night There's so many rude people I'm not gonna find a spot here Oh, I'll keep sniffing around see if I can find somewhere to park and I'll talk to you guys in a bit
