 Monticello and Clearwater I think they call this clear water sort of between the two clear water Minnesota the Speedway Olson's truck stop same place we went bed last night check the tires this is the one that had the flat and that's also the one that's wearing down faster than all the rest now look at thread on this one of the eight is not like the rest strange but an empty step deck hope it's running track be and put something on it it's gonna be a good day I know my rear axle usually wears down faster than the front axle I have my fifth wheel as far forward as I can leaving enough space for the trailer to turn when I make corners right but fifth wheel is more over the front axle than the back so when I have weight on my truck it plants this axle under the ground and when I make corners this axle kicks out and slides more around the corners making these tires wear faster rotate them every now and make sure they all wear even except for that one over there they were the cheap ones I went with the cheap ones remember so far I don't regret my purchase even if they wear down twice as fast as the regular BF Goodrich or Michelin's I still got my money's worth out of them they're black hawks I think they're of the family from the handcooked tire Chinese tires I know but hey I'm trying to make money here got a family to support it was $4,000 cheaper just under $4,000 cheaper to buy these tires than the the Michelin's that I was looking at and saying right but they're doing good they're doing good they're definitely different when you're breaking them in breaking them in takes a lot longer on these ones and the trucks a little bit I wouldn't say unstable but a little bit wishy-washy get a little bit of you feel like you're floating around a little bit for the first 20,000 kilometers like 15,000 miles but after that they break in now it's perfectly fine everything's stabilized and evened out aside from the one that's wearing faster than the rest I mean they're doing pretty good time to get new steers soon those I'll probably stick with Michelin but we'll see I make no promises see we'll see who speaks louder to me the brand name or my wallet another fun fact about today and yesterday I guess it would be I took all my my pants on my jeans home to wash like I always do on the weekend have them all nice and folded up I brought them to the shop put into all blue yesterday I put them down beside the truck I put my towels on the floor I started the truck and I left so I have two pairs out one pair of jeans left to with the one I am wearing now so on my way back to Winnipeg tonight after I get this load going back to Winnipeg we're gonna have to swing by my shop to pick up my pants yeah it's fun being me let's go trailers coming with me the brakes work in the release you guys do that every morning to turn right a man turn left and 240 meters every morning I make sure that my trailer is coming with 200 meters turn left on see our right a man take the entrance to the right and 70 meters you can go underneath there make sure that the fifth wheel is locked on and then I don't we I always suggest people do a tug test to I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life though I'll just show you how I do do things myself and if you think it's a good idea maybe you can do it too if not well I'm not telling you what to do I just like to make sure my trailer is not gonna fall off that'd be embarrassing how do I explain that one to you guys that looks like a freeway entrance but they put a cone and a sign there specifically to tell us that three-way entrance is over here 94 eastbound gotta get through Minneapolis and Shaq beat I don't have too much time to spare time I thought there might be a little bit more traffic let's knock on wood hopefully there's no more let's spend about 10 minutes early we're on the southeast side of Minneapolis on the 494 just going around the bend where you turn from one southbound to eastbound and we're gonna turn down US 169 south because I think I got to get into this right lane but there's people merging into that lane here we go there we go okay let me in these guys are merging here I'll step on it minivan come on you got to hit the highway running man you can't merge 45 and then you can't stay going 45 come on now you got that long on-ramp which is designed for you just to take off like an airport runway US 169 south on ramp is designed so that when you hit the highway you're already doing highway speed a lot of people haven't figured out what we had but we're gonna try to keep educating people making people better better people on the road 169 south this is the right one though sometimes they make the on-ramps like in Ontario for some reason they make the on-ramps like a little tight little loop so there's no possible way even in a car for you to like go around that loop and get up to highway speed by the time you hit the highway I don't know why they build it like that maybe I'm wrong and that's not what on-ramps are designed to do to get you up to highway speed obviously in some regions they're designed to slow you down maybe that's the point I don't know I don't make these things I'm not an engineer I just drive the truck I just drive on the roads I can tell you what works better from experience not just from some classroom lecture see this truck in front of me I'm gonna get up to his speed and then merge in with traffic at the same speed of traffic see the traffic slows down of course it does of course it does what are you doing man also in front of them oh this is an exit only isn't it okay on second we gotta get out of this lane good friend you didn't have to slam on the brakes to make a lane change you could just put your signal on and change lanes and maintain your speed but hey I'm in a I'm in a winding attitude this morning apparently everybody got some cheese I'm feeling good though I'm in a good mood don't get me wrong I had my coffee I'm a little buzzing off the caffeine right now I'm excited to get this load on my trailer and get moving back towards home I finally figured out how to use the US split sleeper rule gotta make a video about that soon we're gonna have to stop down the road anyway so I want to stop somewhere I can have a shower I gotta stop for fuel after I'm loaded I figured I just wash them off then TA Petro stopping center you have a ride to your destination on the left side Petro stopping center my fuel card says that this is where I can get the cheapest juice today on my route home so here I am up the fuel pumps right because usually you they put the main pump on the driver's side right so you get out you can fuel but definitely didn't come in backwards the way they wanted us to come in all the signs are facing this way I don't fuel here very often this is one of my favorite truck stops thank you her off full of fuel yeah this place has everything you could want in a truck stop and a shop back here yet as well Canada needs more places like this but maybe one day I should be more specific Canada needs more space places like this on the prairies eastern Canada gets all the good ones they get everything no I gotta go straight Saturn just motoring he's in a rush to get nowhere terrible fuel economy their trucks are decked right out and they're always probably getting like three to four miles per gallon truck in front of me and walking around the other side of this truck when he's gone we'll be across soon so we have our next plan already in the works so I'm not delivering these shingles tomorrow they're gonna get another city driver to do for me in the morning I've got to grab an empty step deck I just dropped this trailer in our yard grab another step deck that's empty with a riser and then take that empty to Morris Manitoba where I have a load waiting for me to get loaded tomorrow morning and that's gonna take us to Eau Claire Wisconsin after Eau Claire we get unloaded there we go down to Boston Wisconsin and then come back right now that's the plan we'll see if the plan changes or not but I am going back to the yard to grab a different trailer so I don't got to worry about hanging around for tomorrow morning to get these unloaded that's kind of nice it keeps me going right keeps me going so we should be in Eau Claire tomorrow night yeah we'll be in Eau Claire tomorrow night it's just on the other side of Minneapolis into Wisconsin a little bit I think that's what around Menominee right it's not too far into Wisconsin we'll sleep nearby there and we'll be able to unload get down to Boston yeah the next day reload I won't get back home that day I will worry about it as as we as time progresses let's just worry about today today I need to get this trailer to our yard and get back to Morris and get to bed so we can get ready for tomorrow big day tomorrow every day is a big day lots to do that's trucking people need their stuff alright so I dropped off that trailer just back over there see there's a little blue ribbons on the front blue ribbon blue saran wrap ribbons saran wrap this is my new trailer got my tarps on here already I need one riser that's not the one that was too big for this trailer this is how I found this trailer I had two risers just left on it by someone when you're done with risers and you park a trailer you're supposed to put the risers in the riser pile over here but I'm happy to do the work for whoever left the trailer like this why not this one's too big for this trailer anyways like that's way too high see that so I don't want that one this one's for our boat trailers they have a little bit of a lower lower deck we call them boat trailers because we used to haul boats on them long long long time ago they got a little bit more of a drop so they got these higher risers right these are the ones that we use for this and got this tied down here what that does is I stand it up just like this one here and then it sort of turns this trailer into somewhat of a flat deck right I can have a solid piece that's resting up on the step and then it rests on that and I can move that anywhere down the trailer that I need to even have longer stuff on the front I need that one for my load tomorrow I'm not too sure what I'm loading yet but it's gonna need that I don't need this one however I'll put it back on the pile where it's supposed to be should have been on the pile already I already mentioned that didn't I it's still on the I'll put it on the pile why not why not my yellow clock is ticking away but that's okay I charge $500 an hour just so you know just kidding I don't mind I'm actually doing okay for time it's a beautiful evening outside I got about three hours left on my clock and I got like probably another hours worth of driving maybe a bit more because remember I'm the genius that left all of his jeans in his shop so I got no more pants these are my last clean bare pants we've got to quickly run to my shop grab my clothes and then we'll run over to Morris it's all kind of close together it's a little bit out of the way but it's my fuel right I got to pay the price that's why I went now because I'm pulling an empty trailer I was thinking of swinging past the shop when I had a loaded trailer and just quickly grabbing it on the way here wait wait wait wait better to pull an empty trailer extra distance unnecessary distance then a loaded trailer less fuel you gotta save those nickels and once again this light is working just fine make up your mind man let's go fix our mistake we'll get back to work so like I was saying before from here got that pick up in Morris tomorrow that's why I need that riser I'm not too sure what I'm picking up but obviously it's gonna be something long that we need to you'll see in the morning make sure you subscribe and tune in so you don't miss it subscribe down below make videos all the time I like to say every day but let's be honest most days most days so we got to pick up that load take that down to Eau Claire we'll get down to Eau Claire tomorrow night and then we'll unload probably first thing the next morning and then we run over to Boston Wisconsin which is down at the southern edge of the state southern part grab a load of trailers I think some kind of utility trailers probably something the ones you saw over here maybe I'm not too sure I don't think I've ever picked up there in Moss will find out when we get there and then we bring those trailers back here and that'll probably fill up a lot of my week I may have one more this week yet and then I go home to start packing I'm so excited I'm so excited oh I can't wait to be done with this whole moving process we haven't even started packing you know that's a lie we have started packing Britt step mom came down and her mom came down the next weekend as well they were all sort of helping pack already helping us get ready but the majority of the packing still needs to get done a lot of it and get ready but like I said we hired movers so I don't care what you say I mean at least at the end of the day I'm not gonna be beat and tired I'll be able to take all our stuff and use my energy to settle into the house right and give you guys a nice quality tour just a couple of weeks few weeks couple few weeks several more trips yet and then we'll we'll be there but we packing this weekend packing next weekend and then moving day comes the last moving day of my life I hope that's the plan this is our forever home this is where we want our kids to grow up hey so get our pants well let's go get my pants they're not yours let's all of us go get my pants fixin my mistakes what are you doing what are you doing right here you're supposed to be in the truck oops well I guess now that you know the big news that we are moving the big news in the shop is all of this stuff is more stuff that we brought in here that's going to the house and all of this stuff back here and maybe not all of it but most of it pretty much all of it I want all of it gone all of this can go to the house not those tires that I can stay in here the desk everything the stand-up freezer back there all these boxes and bins so I'm gonna be clearing out if you have my shop back made it to Morris and it's time to go to bed gotta be up early in the morning as early as we can and head on down the road grab whatever it is we have to grab I have no idea what it's gonna be and all I know is I need that riser that's the only thing I told me so I'm gonna show up there with my riser I'll see what they got for me we'll tie it down secure it and we'll bring it to Wisconsin someone in Wisconsin needs something that we got in Manitoba I'm gonna bring it there for him I'll see you then so remember be safe stay safe think safe when you're on the highway drive safe I really appreciate that see you tomorrow good night
