 Hey, this is John from the trucker John show and this is Bailey when we're not driving our big truck We're hanging out with trucker Josh at TJV a weasel Weasel good boy. Look at me. What is it? What is it? Oh? You're gonna hurt me. Am I gonna be okay, man? You ready for a new day? You ready? It's gonna be a long day, but we're gonna be at home at the end of today. Uh-huh She has Guten Morgan Morgan good good good day. Good day mates Bonjour Floyd and we're about one day's drive from home I ought to get home tonight because tomorrow afternoon my aunts getting married. I want to be there for the wedding There's a ceremony. I might I might be there for the ceremony. I don't know if I could stay for the reception I will see We'll see because after that yet. I have to drive another five six hours out to wayburns the sketch We want to unload the next day So it's gonna be busy we're gonna be flying today, we're gonna be in the left left lane gang all day, so Let's hammer down. Let's get out there Let's get out of here. I had a great sleep. I feel great Fantastic Today's gonna be a good day. So we stayed here at the 218 truck stop on the 218 in Iowa I was telling you last night. There's a new loves travel plaza across the street Which is pretty convenient, but that parking lot always fills up right away for some reason So I always come park here. I got my coffee from here today. It's just as nice. I mean, it's just not such a big well-known name This is more of a more of a local non-paw truck stop, you know Whereas loves is growing actually pretty quickly loves used to only be like in Oklahoma, right around that area Southern Midwest Correct me if I'm wrong and it's spread to the entire nation. I'm surprised. There's not one in Canada already I'm sure they're looking into it I'm surprised that no other big truck stop Company corporation has moved into Canada yet. I will wait for one more vehicle another little Ford Ranger Oh, this town's got a lot of these little mini Ford Rangers here. Oh, he's turning. Okay Flying J. Pilot flying J is making huge strides in Canada building truck stops across the nation And they're very popular and they've sort of outdone all the regular Canadian truck stops travel plazas which has sort of forced the other Canadian travel plazas like husky ESO and Petro-Canada to update their truck stops and their facilities to match pilot flying J Right, so now we got a whole bunch of nice truck stops. It's the free market competition makes everything better So they came in I'm surprised loves hasn't taken advantage of our Canadian market yet and Opened up a couple of locations up there. I mean, I'm pretty sure everything's American-owned anyway, right? Always said pilot flying J is is my travel plaza of choice Just to just because it's on both sides of the border It's all across Canada and all across the United States. So it's convenient for me I can always get a free shower. I can always get my pilot rewards points And always get good premium Wi-Fi working for them. I did in the past. I've done a few things for them in the past But we sort of split ways. I don't know the last time I worked with them. I Wasn't really impressed with their marketing team. I couldn't ever get a hold of them. There was very bad communication I had no idea what they wanted me to do for them The first year I worked with them. It was awesome great communication always in contact with me And then the second and third year that I worked with them is sort of when I don't know Maybe they don't like me as much Maybe I said something that offended them. I don't know. I still love their products I still go to the truck stops all the time. I still make them lots of money Break time figure. I may as well fuel up at the same time I have to take our 30-minute break US government says it's time to take a break. I Say I don't need one, but they say I have to take it anyway, so I Guess they win But first we go grab some fuel some DEF. I'm below a quarter tank on both Grab a new coffee before we leave Guess we'll sit here and surf through Facebook or something Tell them the 30 minutes pass by Useless break. I'm not tired at all. I don't need it. Oh is the law, isn't it just say DEF not working Are you kidding me? keypad out of Order well, this whole pump is out of order. I'm gonna back up. I'm gonna far go around forks Not cool not cool in every pump So I went inside and I asked them about it and there was that one pump pump 20 You're coming this way. All right. I'll go this way then pump 20 that still was Pumping DEF most of the pumps are actually all of them, but that one Not working. So I was able to get my fuel and DEF here. Thank goodness So I don't have to stop again on the way back to Canada. I'm just go straight home It looks like we'll be arriving at the yard around 12 30 I'll probably end up just sleeping in the truck and then running home in the morning Otherwise, I get home diesel freaks out Chevy freaks out the little guys freak out the wife freaks out Everyone gets all excited. I get all excited and then everybody's wide awake and we can't fall asleep Or even worse, you might be sleeping already and I disturb her sleep I don't want to do that all these lights coming up here. That's the Canadian border I don't know why they have an open sign here. I guess sometimes they close it down. I've never seen it close down before It's open 24 hours a day 365 days a year. I guess sometimes they close it down Well, just gonna show them our ID. We've been in the US for six days We delivered our load down to Elabel, Georgia picked up this load in Jackson, Tennessee And it's going to Saskatchewan. Those are the big things you got to have at the front of your mind When you get up to the window because they're gonna ask you
