 kilometers or about 10,000 miles or so just under on this service that I did the oil still looks pretty much new you can tell it's been used but it looks really good haven't lost a drop haven't burnt a drop nothing's leaking out that's what I like to see that's what I check every morning want to make sure my motor is doing good the most important part of the truck good morning another another one is here it's hot roll the windows down it's hot I really like this time of year it's very easy for me to get up in the mornings because I can't sleep when it's hot excuse my key off it likes to let me know that my key is off anyway I can't sleep when it's hot it has to be cold my wife is the same way and maybe she sort of sort of helped make me like this a little bit because our house in order to sleep she always had to be really cold at night and I've gotten so used to that and I sleep so much better when it's cold however in the truck here I shut everything off for night right I'm not gonna leave the truck idling overnight if I don't have to so I just got the screens in my windows and just the airflow but at this time of year the airflow sort of seems like a heater more than anything else so I always get woke up first thing in the morning by how hot it is and then I'm ready to go for the day I just have to make sure I get to bed on time otherwise like I'm not getting very much sleep how are you guys you guys like sleeping when it's cold or can you sleep in the heat I cannot sleep if it's it's too hot won't sleep at all we've got about a nine to ten hour drive ahead of us today crossing into Canada this is Summit South Dakota have pretty much everything in these truck stops everything you need it's all marked up in price a little bit because you got to pay the convenience tax right because it's easy on and off for trucks the truck parking everything's right here so everything is a little bit more expensive than you'd find maybe at like a big store at Walmart on Amazon but it's that convenience tax it's very convenient you pull in you grab your fuel if you're fueling you have a shower you grab a doughnut grab a meal there's a casino in there if you're into that usually they have like a restaurant and lounge anything you need for your travels very nice west from Summit South Dakota on US Highway 12 we will head straight up which I believe is US is it 52 it is once we get into North Dakota anyways and you go through North Dakota and you sort of wiggle your way up towards the sketch on border I welcome these raindrops I would like a free truck wash fantastic long as there's no tornadoes I follow the some storm chasers from the Dakotas North Dakota South Dakota Manitoba where I live is right next door to North Dakota so this is my region here as I follow their weather weather reports whether yesterday I was yesterday there was two tornadoes spotted in one weather system the camera pan from one side there was a tornado touchdown and then they panned over to the right and there was another tornado that was just about to touchdown like a couple miles away so I welcome the rain especially since I didn't get a chance to clean my windshield this morning whoops you're lazy trucker Josh oh I know some days I am I actually I would have cleaned it but I didn't even think of it till I was already on the road I'm like oh I got all these bugs in my windshield I'm gonna get all these comments now clean your truck trucker Josh I don't know why why Mickey Mouse wants me to wash my truck so much but he's always in my comment section believe me I like to have a clean truck to he bothers me when it's dirty I'm like I love to have a clean clean truck but it's just not always possible she's a working truck first I can't afford to bring her to the blue beacon every day that's expensive between $75 and $100 every time you go to the truck wash so I go maybe I like budget for myself to go once a week and if I can I have all the materials I need in my shop to wash the truck if I can I wash the truck at home saves me about a hundred bucks Canadian because it'll be like $80 American and it'll translate to very close to $100 every time I go on it adds up I would love to bring it in there every day maybe one day we'll get there maybe once YouTube gets big enough I'll be able to afford that I'm gonna sell some more t-shirts so we've been going up US 218 that's the road I was thinking of before into North Dakota and or just coming up to Interstate 94 beat you to it Karen so this here I believe is the city of Bismarck North Dakota we have to go on a truck bypass around the city because they don't want us going through so you can see there on the sign West 94 that way also the truck route for West 52 and North 281 we're taking North 281 but following West 52 in the end that's what's gonna bring us up to North portal there's the Interstate yellow flashing arrow is weird to me because that's different than how we do it in Manitoba but all that means it's like a solid green light for us Manitobans it means you can turn left but traffic coming this way is not gonna stop you got a yield to them in Manitoba that would just be a regular solid green not arrow a solid green light if you got a green arrow or a flashing green arrow that means it's a protected left turn same thing it's pretty self-explanatory Interstate here for two miles then we're back on to the two-lane highway all the way up to our destination in Saskatchewan it's the only four-lane highway we'll see today that's not quite true sorry just thought of it there's a little bit of four-lane divided just north of Bismarck here and closer to Minot but we can say this is the only interstate we'll see today how about that? Brington North Dakota getting some sun showers here to have a coffee I'm gonna head up to Minot I'm gonna stop for a shower at the Flying J but two hours down the road I'm up on my dashboard there so you know what that means it's time to speed things up let's go turn right on 3rd Street US 52 on this road for 38 kilometers bright lights right there that is Canada we're still on US soil here got all my paperwork ready passport and stuff here to show them on my ID I'm not from Saskatchewan but we're wondering why I don't film at the border supposed to run aloud to US side especially they're very picky about that they really don't like it don't do it the US side you can get into trouble I think it's frowned upon on the Canadian side but the US side if you look film going up to the window they're gonna get very upset with you you even have to take your dash camera off your windshield when you come up to the US customs I've been asked to remove that off my windshield and turn it off before they'll talk to me and if you go on to the US customs website it does say that on US federal land at the port of entry you're not allowed to film or record audio when you go to their booths there and stuff I think the idea is to prevent teaching terror terrorists how border crossings work and how you get across I don't know that's what I'm guessing but yeah not allowed to film there don't do it you can get into trouble we've come to the end of the road on this trip literally I'm at the customer it's too dark to show you outside you probably will see you don't turn the headlights on there you go see that's the sign right there that says receiving that way I'll be here first thing in the morning they get here at 7 so I'm gonna get myself up at 6 30 and take it from there I called ahead to ask if I could park here make sure you do that if you're a new truck driver one tip I can give you is if you want to sleep at your customer make sure you get permission and ask first is the worst thing is if you get to your customer and you you know you run at hours on your e-log or you know you get there you're in the sleep then they tell you you can't sleep there and you got to leave a lot of places they don't want you to sleep there especially down in the States it's a little more slack up here especially in the prairies of Canada everyone's a little bit more easy-going but it's not like that everywhere I call the head asked if I could sleep right here and first in line here we are so 7 a.m. tomorrow I'm gonna be getting unloaded and I might be going home from here we shall see I was hoping to get one more load in this week yet but is what it is what is tomorrow what's the 19th today so I thought there was a truck show on this weekend truck shows next weekend in Steinbach I'm really hoping I can make it to that but it all depends on my schedule I need to keep this truck moving when we've had a lot of doctor appointments and stuff in the past month or two it's really slowed me down in getting miles fighting that yawn off this whole clip I just let her out let her rip yeah I got to keep this truck moving I'm hoping to be there though I'm hoping 90% sure I should be there we'll know more next week towards the end of the week anyways thanks for hanging out with me today everybody thanks for telling your friends about my channel I really appreciate that if you don't mind share it out on your social media whichever social media you like best tell people about trucker Josh and let's see if we can grow this channel and do something even bigger there it yeah there is a hundred sixteen thousand subscribers that have people who've chosen to subscribe and those are all legit I haven't you know I don't even know how one goes about getting fake subscribers but no all of those subscribers are people who decided to follow me they don't all watch but we're averaging well about 10,000 views per video and that's pretty cool if you think about that that's that's quite a few people is quite a few out of quite a few out of quite a few of you out there who liked who watched me every day and I appreciate that very much pretty that very much and if you like it maybe your friends will like it too who knows but you guys are pretty pretty faithful and loyal we got that faithful audience that is there every single video and you know one of these days I've got to make a real real thank you video because I do appreciate it I'm going to sleep now I'm so tired we'll talk to you in the morning when we're gonna unload these tires
