 Mountain Dew Mountain Dew. I just noticed I waved at the trailer that said Mountain Dew and not at the driver. Whoops Morning everybody we're Where are we we're in Appleton, Wisconsin? I have four drops today. I just got the first one done It took like I thought less than five minutes. I rolled back the roll tight. That's behind me See my mirror there Blue to match the truck Rolled it back. They took their piece off and strapped down the rest of the load there and Now I'm off to Manitowoc, Wisconsin for my next delivery. Let's go starting to get busy back here That's my cue to leave all four drops done today I'm gonna have to let the office know right away and all the load gods know that I'm gonna be empty this afternoon so they can start Fishing around for some new freight for me for tomorrow morning And hopefully they can if they line it up today that way I can Run towards it tonight yet and be there in the morning. It's raining here. Look at this. They got practically no snow Must be nice It's four degrees Celsius outside. We're probably looking around 38 to 40 Fahrenheit For this Canadian that is a nice sunny day Even if it is raining This is how you know I'm not lying to you we're in, Wisconsin Not even two minutes into the video And there's a roundabout and I took the wrong turn I was supposed to go straight through that roundabout and turn right at the next roundabout shoot We're leaving Appleton, Wisconsin. We're headed to Manitowoc. What was the next town again? Wawa Wawa Tosuk or something and the last one we're ending off in Kenosha, Wisconsin Never actually been to Kenosha. I've heard a lot about it in the last couple years You think I'll you think I'll see Kyle? Wisconsin according to their sign that I just drove past. There's 1195 souls that live here straight north of Milwaukee and Chicago along the same coastline Lake Michigan. That's just right in front of us. Right now. He is He's the Great Lake on this is I Missed the sign. I guess if there was one two deliveries done That's only nine o'clock. Hmm. I was here early. My next delivery. I got to be there for one o'clock It looks like I'm gonna be there at 11 So I hope they got some time. Maybe they can unload me early That means I'd be at my next my last drop actually at one o'clock probably maybe maybe even noon Yeah, we're way ahead of schedule today. Today's a good day Every day is a good day, but Today is a good day. So you remember when I I replaced This light because the marker light in there had broken off from like the motherboard behind there Well, the same thing happened to this thing now on the other side So luckily I have an extra one at the shop that I can replace it with But for now I did the exact same thing as I did last time. I went on this side and cut the wires So it just flashes and then I don't have one marker light working and one marker light out That you can't have them uneven. So if they're both gonna one's gonna be off They're both gonna be off, but they're still both flashing but the wire broke off from behind this LED bar So I'm gonna try to solder it see if I can save it I Don't really like it that they didn't use stainless steel screws in here though Like all the rest of them are don't rust but the ones in here always rust Not to replace those two just waiting to get unloaded and I've got all my straps off and rolled up already My freight in here keeping it dry underneath the roll type under the tarp as soon as they come out of that door right there I'm gonna roll this back They can take their freight off and close it up We're gonna head out this way. I Have a reload waiting for me in Bartlett, Illinois. It's LTL. So it's less than truckload It's not a whole full load. We're gonna fill up the rest of the trailer on the way back in Bemidji, Minnesota So two pickups on this next load both going back to Manitoba. It's been a bad a boom bad a bad a boom better It's been a good day Trailer is empty behind me just called my shipper that I was going to go load at tomorrow morning the first one Down in Bartlett, Illinois. They're gonna load me today Because I'm so far ahead of schedule. I'm gonna be there 230. I was only supposed to be here at three o'clock Hmm Trucker of the year. No, not quite Maybe next time That feels good that feels good. Okay, so it's about 65 miles from here And I quickly run over there. It's the west side of Chicago Pick those two skids up and then I can get out of Chicago for night That's that's the whole reason to get out of Chicago for the night and be up near Bemidji, Minnesota to load my second Part of my load tomorrow morning. So then I will be back at the yard tomorrow afternoon tomorrow evening, which means I'm a day ahead of schedule this week Oh knock on wood knock on wood all over the place all the wood you can come on knock on all the wood I don't think there's any real wood in here. Huh? You know what? I got these stir sticks. This will work okay Everything's gonna go good now Chicago you never cease to amaze me It doesn't matter how many signs they put along the side of the road Slower traffic keep right. It seems that the slower traffic always keeps left 90 west towards rockford I'm actually pretty close to my shipper now already It's fantastic. I think I'm just picking up two skids like very like very little Not much at all. The majority of the load is up in minnesota And you see it. Yep. There we go. I am one of the few using their turn signals to get out of this line Everybody better have their headlights on Otherwise, I'm not going to see you in my mirror so strange that they haven't Like in the u.s. Like for my canadian friends, you know when you buy a car Any car in canada, right? You you put it in gear the lights turn on right in the u.s. It doesn't do that They can drive down the highway with their lights off It blows my mind every time I see that like how do you why? I thought all cars were made with running lights until like a few years ago, and I realized no In the u.s. You actually have to like turn your lights on for your headlights to come on So on a day like today if you're running with no headlights on in my mirror, I don't know you're there no idea but It is the way they do it, right Just if you're coming to the u.s. For the first time that's something to keep in mind You wouldn't usually think of that right unless someone mentions it That's why I'm mentioning it I'll look twice three times four times just in case someone's beside you without their headlights on Especially in chicago The city is nuts. You think toronto is bad for driving Toronto is like chicago light. I gotta say though toronto is set up a little bit worse Toronto is They had the one 401 going through through the city and then they put a toll road up there that nobody uses on the 407 At least here in chicago. There are more options. There are more freeways, which does free things up a little bit So maybe it's not as bad as toronto depends on the day. I guess I don't know. I don't like going to toronto The only people who like toronto are people from toronto Do you tron toners? you tron tonians Is that what you call it in torontonians tron boners? I'm just bugging you. I'm just bugging you But seriously nobody outside toronto really likes toronto But in all fairness anyone inside toronto doesn't even know there's a whole country outside of toronto So it goes it goes both ways. It's okay We live together We make it work That's it. That's the first part now. We head up to minnesota and we fill up the rest of it It took only what eight feet So I have about 35 feet left on the trailer and I only needed 30 Did I do that math right? 53 minus eight No 45 I have 45 feet left My brain has been turned off one second. Let me reboot it I've got my brain re-brewt re-brewt bit. Maybe not Got my brain rebooted. It's just it was just starting up. There wasn't quite all the way finished 53 feet trailer right 53 feet length 53 foot trailer minus eight 45 I have 45 feet of trailer space left at least I should And I only need 30 feet for What i'm picking up in minnesota. I think it's lumber We will find out when we get there Oh, man, it's been raining all day so weird I left the snow back at home and here in like milwaukee and chicago. It's been raining But the weather's been nice the temperature has been really nice Can't complain. I'll take the rain over the snow I mean, I might just stay down here a little while. I don't know what my rush is to get home Approaching destination in 300 meters on the right side That's your destination on the right side find j travel plaza West for us gallon that's it everybody just finally It feels good I've got to go to bed and move all this stuff out of my way crawl under the blankets now and Thanks for watching.
