 G'day it's Justin from Australia, and you're watching Trucker Josh Vlogs on TJV with Josh, Diesel, Chevy, the two Frankies, and Britt. Enjoy! Good morning everybody. We're in Minnesota near Clearwater at the Speedway. Is that what it's called? Speedway Travel Plaza? Getting ready to start our day. We're gonna go down to Alexandria Just a little ways down the road and have a shower and wash this magnificent beard And we'll be on our way. We're on our way to Calgary. We're delivering a load of glass They're expecting us there 7 a.m. Thursday morning, and it is right now 7 a.m. It's not 7 a.m. It's 10 a.m. Central time Tuesday We got to be at 7 a.m. Mountain time, so I'm trying to do the time difference in my head So it's 9 a.m. Over there right now. We got to be there 7 a.m. Over there day after tomorrow We have 1,838 kilometers to go. We have about 1,200 miles 1,100 miles somewhere in there Let's get at it. Diesel Yeah Are you ready for this? I was born ready man. Let's go Indeed indeed you got to get some fuel there too fuel economy has still been doing a really good since our Visit to the shop in Burnish Columbia. We're officially kicked into driving our day has started. No take-backs. He's No do overs It is now begun. You cannot change drive time in e-logs. So once you're driving you're driving The clock has started whether you like it or not So Alexandria is just a little ways down the road here. We got a decent amount of time to get to Calgary And trying to save as much fuel as possible The savings alone in the difference in fuel economy the savings alone should pay for that repair in Few to several months So that's good. I'm glad that that turned out as long as nothing else goes wrong knock on wood North on wood Nothing else can go wrong We're an exit 100 here by 94 in Minnesota Up in here grab some fuel and a shower at the pilot Fuel economy today isn't what it was yesterday That's for sure as soon as you get out on to the prairies onto the planes The wind picks up and the wind is coming out of the West today, and I'm pointed my nose Straight at it So we're fighting the wind today and this big parachute behind me is dragging me down But we're still doing better than we were doing before all the repairs. So that's good fortunate that it's so windy all the time On the price to get close to North Dakota Turn right on evergreen lane. I'm on the prairie. So I know all about wind. It's always windy. There's nothing to break the wind It's all just wide open grasslands, you know Open farms, I know the farmers hate it because that That wind picks up their dirt and it erodes their fields and takes their nice Rich topsoil off and blows it away So they don't like the wind either. That's why a lot of times they build wind breaks, right? They plant trees as wind breaks between their fields That doesn't stop all the wind from hitting highways It's when I get fuel first At about a quarter tank much lower than I like to bill. Oh, it's busy here. What in the world? What what our nation? Why is there cars into the pumps? That's weird. Every pump is Being used right now These two in front of us. I don't know what they're doing must be repairing those pumps I don't know boy. And these guys are all just parked This guy's fueling. That's right. This guy's just fueling up his reefer mud looks at it I don't know this guy on the left here transport designs. He's just parked in the pumps. He's not fueling That's nice. That's nice of them. Guess we'll wait. I think this guy will be done soon He's at least actively here Fueling his truck and not inside all showered up fueled up BEF up Headed out. I met dad here dad happened to be in the area and just passing by and swung in here to say hello Take a look at all the work the good shop did to my truck We've got that burning ball of fire running us later in our face. How rude the thing I got my My darkened looker is on the sunshine glasses on this road for 77 kilometers Absolutely, so we're gonna pick up our speed to about 60 mile an hour now Might even go up to 65 or 500 kilometers or 300 miles Away from the Canadian border. We have six hours and 23 minutes available on our 14 hour clock I can make it we can get into Canada tonight yet, and then we get an extra two hours to play with At least let's see if we can make it. I was so sluggish before It's always best to stop for a nap if you have time even if you don't have time sometimes It's just best to stop for a nap It's so much better, so let's see if we make it get north portal Saskatchewan from portal, North Dakota It's from Jamestown, North Dakota about time to say goodbye To our four lane divided highways Jump the gun a little bit there Karen. I was still talking I was still talking you jumped the gun a little bit there You gotta listen first before you talk exiting here Jamestown onto us highway 52 This u.s highway the two-lane highway Just in the process of telling them that It's a two-lane highway that snakes its way through Central North Dakota up to northern North Dakota where it meets up with southern Saskatchewan And spits you out into Canada on highway 39 So we are officially on the two lane now until Made it first out of us 281 truck You don't even know what you're talking about Karen. You're drunk go home We get our four lane back once we reach the trans canada West of regina Saskatchewan near moose jaw And that won't happen until tomorrow sometime midday or afternoon or something We're waiting for a pickup coming from our left here. That's just Creeping along Putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt putt Now they wanted to make a turn okay Your putting is excused Continue on this road for five kilometers Actually, I sort of lied we get a four lane divided here for just a little bit And then there's a four lane divided by my not north dakota yet So we get a little bit of four lanes on the way up there But for the most part That'll be a two lane highway all the way up to moose jaw Rolling into beautiful beautiful careington north dakota I always gotta Say hi to my friend here. He's up here on the right. He's always waving at me Every time we go through here. We got to make sure we wave. It's rude not to wave back, right? He's just here at the chieftain motel. He's the big chief Where is he there he is there he is I see him I see him there he is. What's up chief? How's it going such a friendly guy We've got to go around a little around it But I usually stop here at the truck stop, but I'm gonna skip this stop this time I'm gonna go all the way to my knock because I want to grab fuel there And uh, we're in a little bit of a rush. I want to get up to canada today yet And we should be able to make it no problem. We'll have about 45 minutes left on our clock On our us hours of service then once we cross into canada We have an extra two hours on canadian hours of service So if we feel like it we can go a little further yet if we don't we can just sleep there But at least we have that option then right? Uh, what's going on down there plushy lights at the roundabout take the third exit in 400 meters Oh, well, that's a fire truck going here. That's fire truck with blue lights. It's so weird It looks like a cop to me and there's more police down the road over there. It must have been an accident Oh, I hope everybody's okay No more emergency vehicles here though, right? Only whenever you see one emergency vehicle, you should always keep your keep your head up Keep your eyes open because usually where there's one emergency vehicle. There's at least two At the roundabout take the third exit So if one passes by you get ready to stop and make way for the second one There's not always a second one, but usually very often there is And you on this road for 39 kilometers North Dakota for you though. Hey like look at these huge farming operations Grain elevators is that what they call them still grain elevators is grain storage bins Like can you imagine how much grain or feed or whatever they store in there? I'm not a real farmer. I'm just a fake farmer Imagine how much they could store in that big bin I guess from here they load it on the trains and then it gets dispersed to where whoever buys it a lot of it probably goes overseas As the farmers of north america of canada the u.s. We we feed most of the world Oh, not most of them. We feed a lot of the world I thought that was gonna be a little bumpier than that. Yeah, I'm just a farmer on In the imaginary world speaking up. I'm doing pretty good. I'm back in debt again I had to I wanted to buy a new pig barn bought a new pig barn Borrowed some money for that Gonna have to pay that back over the course of this next week I've logged almost 1200 hours on that game But I haven't been playing the whole time I haven't been playing nearly that long It's just I usually have it running in the background doing other things Because it's a simulator, right? Farmers don't work 24 seven every day 365 days a year and neither do I Sometimes you just got to let things go let the pigs do their thing let the fields grow Mind not north dakota Anybody else thirsty My truck's not really that thirsty yet But we're gonna fuel up here where they got a bit of cheaper juice because the temperatures are pretty nice Spring is just about upon us So don't have to be so careful with Which fuel I put in my truck not too worried about it gelling up Let's go right to this one You want to know why I'm picking this one because I'm lazy and I want to be as close to the building as possible What those guys got a big heavy load look at that Careful with that get yourself an old weight ticket We're not gonna get diesel number one today Just gonna get the regular diesel Shut the truck off right of ways reduce every idling minute that I can Let the world know here that we're going to Fuel will also walk around our truck and do a load check while we're here And then we're gonna go in there and we're gonna get a coffee Because we're going to canada we'll make it today I think I got two hours 22 minutes left 147 kilometers or under 100 miles We should make it at least get into canada today. I don't have a little bit of a shorter day tomorrow It's been a long day. We're in wayburns to scatch one. We made it up to canada here That's where we're gonna spend the night At our usual spot at the co-op there. Hopefully no one's taking my spot I have a spot off in the back in the corner where I'm usually all by myself. Nice quiet night Tomorrow one more longer. Well, I'm not quite as long as today, but one more day and then we'll be in caligary We unload hopefully we can reload The same day, but I have to be in sundry albert up before two o'clock to get loaded And the place I'm delivering to in caligary. I'm delivering this glass They usually take all day to unload me But it's a simple load this time right just two bundles of bunch of crates glass We'll see what happens my unloading appointment is 7 a.m So there's a chance that I can still make it by two to sundry Then we can start headed home and I'll be going home for the weekend Finally getting a little bit of a break at home since uh, it's all this Work was done on my truck and stuff. I got to stop by home a little bit last weekend But this will be for actually like saturday and sunday Man those things are bright Somebody's in my spot This big guy off here to the left you probably can't see him because it's too dark My camera doesn't pick it up big oversized loads parked in my spot How dare you It's my spot pretty nice load though It's not even in there. Here's another sleeper. They took my spot. Oh, I'm gonna park at the back here now Yeah, it looks like this lock gets pretty soft here Don't want to get stuck.
