 Snow in Pickering, Ontario, and there is the mighty building That's it. That's the whole thing. It's gonna be a good day Even though it's busy here. You got this guy coming in the exit with this guy trying to go out the exit You got the fuel islands over there just filled right up Where's this guy going? Is he gonna cut the line one of that pump right there? I Guess so. Yeah, he's gonna go fuel up there He knows the trick of the petro pass is I'm gonna let you in on a little secret all of you Okay, you're all gonna be part of this little secret club of the petro pass At these petro pass pumps You know, there's always fuel lanes right like one two three four with a main pump and then a satellite pump on the other side Right so that you can fuel size, you know on the end of the fuel islands where this guy went right there On the end of the islands you can fuel there, too And most of these petro passes, but it's only got the one pump and then it has a long extended hose with a spring-loaded Cable attached to it and you can actually pull it around between your truck and trailer to the other side and fuel your other tank So you can fuel both tanks on the side here like this the secret and the thing about this is most people don't know that So when they're all lined up waiting to get into a pump with one with a satellite You can do what this guy did come all the way in just go to the side here And if you're okay with swinging that that hose around through your behind your cab like we used to all the time at all The card logs anyway, then grab your fuel and go Now you're part of the elite petro pass secret knowledge club I made it up myself. I'm the leader You don't have to wait in line all the time because these other guys they don't know Really you shouldn't cut in front of the line But it's like a secret cheat code fuel in the sun So, yes, it's snowing Southern Ontario southern Ontarians freak out when there's just a little bit of snow falling so traffic is gonna be absolutely Terrible I know it already They don't get as much snow down here. They have better weather This is the more populated part of the country for a reason that's they got better weather So when the first snowflake falls They panic not all of them not all them but a lot more of them panic than panic in Manitoba though Manitobans aren't exactly blameless and guiltless on on that front either It seems wherever you go. It doesn't matter if you're from Manitoba, Alberta Or even eastern Canada wherever you're from whenever the first snowfall hits the ground It seems there's a specific group of people that shall not be named because we don't know what their names are We don't even know who they are, but they exist soon as the first snowflake falls boop ditch Right in the ditch right there. Do not collect $200 straight to the ditch first snowflake Every year be that person today please. Let's not be that person today We got to go 100 kilometers or 60 miles east down the 401 now to a town called Colburn I'm gonna drop off these reels there. They said as long as I'm there before 3 o'clock. I'm good Hopefully the snow doesn't slow them down And then we go back to London, Ontario on the other side of Toronto the east side of Toronto We're gonna sit there and wait for the day after tomorrow to load up my load. It's a It's a wide load. It's gonna be under 12 feet 11 foot 8. I've got my permit with me here already I've got my flags my signs my beacons. I've tested make sure they're good to go So when we pick this load up we can flag it tag it change it down and drag it on back to Manitoba I believe the load is going to Brandon, Manitoba But they only want it delivered a week later And I'm gonna be there in like three days. I can only pull this wide load during daylight hours So it might take me a little longer to get through northern Ontario. It's a narrow two-lane road I can't drive at night Says it right on my permit So we need a load as early as possible and we'll drive to around sunset And we'll find a good parking spot somewhere. We just have to shut it shut it down And then I can get rolling again One half hour before sunrise and the way I figure out when sunrise and sunset is gonna be I just Google it So hey Google, when's the Sun setting today in such and such a place? We're going to Sunday setting at 6 30 p.m. Well, that means that I have to be off the road by 7 By a half hour after sunset And I don't want to push it that far so we'll see let's go get our freight Let's worry about that tomorrow Or the day after let's go lights are on Wipers work gonna need them today. We're gonna make sure our trailer gonna come with us. All right. All right. All right, and Whoa, oh Lovely trailer is attached brakes work gonna release the brakes gonna make sure that they released for me Oh and look at that. We're rolling forward. Oh, oh, it's a good day It's a good day All right, here we go. Let's get get out there. Let's drive out into the snow here a little bit Thank you for the place to park petrol pass. I appreciate it It's me a bit of a sharp corner here. Oh my oh my On all blue another day, let's go. I'll treat you good. You treat me good. That's the deal, right? Get rid of these reels tired of pulling them around dragging me down Guess it's a good thing. I didn't park here. It's all full of cars 100 meters Most of these cars work at these businesses around here. I Know this is a very Canadian thing in the big Canadian cities Toronto Vancouver and that Businesses they don't have enough parking for their employees. So their employees are forced to park on the street. I Don't think that's very nice, but guess it is what it is Might take a little while to get on here now Okay, so that fancy vehicles going that way. I'm going that way I'm going for it. Ah sent it road Sounds familiar. Is there a Brock road in Winnipeg too? Yeah, this is a very common place when I come down to the southern Ontario. I like stopping here or at least I used to I used to stop at this petro pass all the time because I don't think a lot of people knew that it was hidden away back here But clearly now More people know what's here. I also realized I talked to a few guys there this morning and the truck stop is Allowing them to pay for permanent spots there, which oh, I really don't like that It's not fair to those of us who like come from out of province and need a place to park and there's no parking anywhere so what happens is They just take money from whoever wants to park whatever there, right anything Oh a trailer motorhome utility trailer truck car, you know old broken down piece of junk Whatever if you want to spot there you go you give them your money And you can park take a parking spot there, right and fair enough. That's fair business That's nothing illegal or wrong with that business wise, but I really feel like it's not fair Because there's such little parking already and now like if there's even less But what can you do right? That is what it is So just be aware of that when you come especially in a southern Ontario a lot of these truck stops a lot of the parking spots They they reserve permanently For anybody it's I guess it's good for the people who want to reserve a spot sure you got a part You got a spot to park your junk Like I said, I come from out of province. I'm running out of hours. I'm required by law to stop That's what the truck stop is for it's a truck stop And all the spots are taken up by you know, like old broken down RVs and stuff Why do you hate me? Why you know, you just want me to be first right front of the line number one I get it I get it I get it number one Look at that. Look at that car right there. That's a nice Mercedes. Look at that purple Nice truck to let's look at that for a second. There you go now behind there is that purple car. I Actually like that purple here he comes here he comes. I like that purple But not on a car. I wouldn't put it on a car, but it's a nice royal purple, right? Purple is the color of royalty Whatever he stands out. You want to get noticed you paint your car purple. He got noticed. Yeah, now you're on YouTube There you go That works. You see you buy a regular color car like that not as many people care. I Get it. I get it Excuse me. Excuse me Always have to have the window cracked. I don't know why Auto route days heroes We're in Ontario Karen you can speak English it's okay Auto route days heroes That's the French way of saying highway of heroes Every province has a highway of heroes and Manitoba it's highway one It's the highway that When you have when we're at war overseas Or military conflicts and you have soldiers that die Overseas serving the country their bodies come home And they're brought down the highway of heroes and here in ontario people line the streets and the freeways and the overpasses to Honored them as they as they pass pass by so it's called the highway of heroes That's the tight corner yikes tight tight Why is it gonna be so tight? Ontario you forget the trucks exist. There we go Oh, there's the 401. Oh, and there's all the people.
