 Morning everybody. We're here in North Bay or just south of North Bay, Ontario Petro Pass is where we spent the night Getting ready to head out I've got two days drive to get to Winnipeg. It's gonna be two long days a one long day today I'm gonna try to get to Nipagon today and It's about a thousand kilometers six hundred miles through northern Ontario That's a long way to go through northern Ontario in one day, but we'll see what we can do We're gonna stop in campus casing today for fuel in the shower And then tomorrow we'll go the rest of the way all the way to Winnipeg on the following day in the morning We'll deliver this freight into Winnipeg and then I go home for a few days our wedding anniversary is coming up six years I want to do something special for that and we have a bunch of projects at home too And the honey-do list is getting pretty long So I'm gonna take take a little bit of time off to get some projects done and celebrate our anniversary After this trip Let's get going. We're not getting any closer. We're sitting here I get sent reports of what fuel prices are at all the locations that I can fuel up Plus I have an app for one of my fuel cards that shows me our price at Every available fuel stop for me, right? So I know all the prices of fuel. I know I'm like a broken record I'm always talking about fuel prices Fuel is the most expensive Expense is the biggest expense is a better way to put it In trucking that is what you're gonna spend the majority of your money on unless if you have drivers then the drivers I don't know. Maybe you spend more money on fuel than you would on a driver. I'm pretty equal That would be your biggest expense labor and fuel for me. I drive my own truck. So I Don't know why I pay myself, but I don't consider myself an employee. I'm the owner of this truck so My biggest expense aside from myself my mortgage my family at home obviously putting money away for that Biggest expense is the fuel. That's why I spend so much time Looking at where the cheapest fuel is and I have all the like I get emails Pardon me emails from the office Telling me or what all the fuel prices are a petro pass all the locations across Canada Like I said, I have an app as well that I use for my my EFS fuel card And I'm looking at all the prices And it looks like The petro pass on the other side of town has the cheapest price on the road home This petro pass is more expensive for some reason than the one on the other side of town This one the BVD petro pass which is linked with loves in the States. I think The other one is just petro. I don't know what the difference is but the other one has cheaper fuel So I'm going there. Let me get fuel over there And then the next cheapest spot I need to get all the way to Thunder Bay to petro pass there Petro pass is giving us better fuel prices right now than flying J here in Canada. So petro pass gets my business So we're gonna fuel here in North Bay feel it right up to the top Thunder Bay is a full day's drive. I'm trying to get to Nipagon or Thunder Bay tonight, right? And I'll fuel when I get to Thunder Bay the petro pass in Thunder Bay apparently has the best price it's half a cent cheaper per liter than the one on the 101 and 17. What is it the cow cow cow on this one second here? I got the name of it the one in starts with a K cow in this stick we are Camino come in this stick we are Ontario Half a like a half a cent difference. So if I feel for it like 600 liters I save three dollars by going to the one in Thunder Bay as opposed to that one, but Regardless of whatever we're gonna do doesn't really matter For that which when I go to their three dollars I should probably go to the cheaper one save the three dollars three dollars here three dollars there now You have six dollars you save six dollars here. You save six dollars there now You have 12 by the end of the month. Maybe you have a hundred bucks. I don't know So I try to get all the cheapest ones anywhere between here and Thunder Bay. It's much more expensive We're talking five cents per liter more Cap as casings always expensive because it's way up there on the northern highway That's that's out of the question. We're all fueling there Not if we don't have to in wintertime I might when it's minus 30 minus 40 outside just to keep my tanks full to keep the condensation down I might top it up up there, but Yeah, so we're gonna go to the other side of North Bay to the Petro Pass and So far this month it looks like well, I'm in Canada Petro Pass is earning my business. They are giving us the best prices Sorry pilot flying J. I liked your rewards program and your showers are very nice Your fuel is a little bit more expensive than your competitor First things first here though. It's a sunny day outside Put on my darker lookers. There you go They're prescriptions so I can see everything in HD with my glasses on my eyes aren't that bad But they help see everything especially at night. They have a lot not these ones The other ones help at night. These ones don't do much. They're all very good at night But sometimes I forget that I'm wearing my shades because I get so used to them and I'll just walk into like Walmart I'm just walking around wearing my shades and people are looking at me funny You guys do that if you have prescription shades all the time all the time And then I feel like I'm being rude, right?

Let's go get some juice. We got a long day ahead of us today Make sure the trailer's gonna come with me like usual Very little is attached trailer breaks work And they release Ready to go just enough hours on my clock to get home Getting pretty close to a full 70-hour week though. 100 meters turn right on pinewood Park Drive This guy's parked up here. I guess that's kind of smart. You don't have to walk as far to get into Burger King Nice truck. But so does mine So I'm worried more about this car coming from my left here once this guy passes by We're going for it Knowledge far beyond it's also interesting to note the gold has been revered and sought after by almost every civilization on earth Some theorists argue that this universal fascination with gold might have been implanted in us by our alleged creators the Anunnaki And if this is true does our continued obsession with gold suggest a lingering subconscious connection to our supposed extraterrestrial origins Getting deeper into the allure of gold. What makes gold so special? It's a question that peaks our curiosity after all gold is just a shiny metal, isn't it? Well, not quite gold as we've already established. It's an extraordinary element It doesn't corrode or tarnish like other metals making it last virtually forever It's also highly malleable and ductile a single ounce of gold can be beaten into a sheet covering 300 square feet or drawn out into a wire 60 miles long From an aesthetic perspective gold's lustrous warm glow has been universally cherished for its beauty Yet its value extends far beyond its appearance Gold is an excellent conductor of electricity and is highly resistant to most acids making it incredibly useful in numerous industries from electronics to dentistry We're just getting into campus casing now hours available. It's already 618 p.m. Here's other might be Hopefully there's not a lineup 233 highway 11 I don't want to stay here too long. Okay. We want to do this quick quick quick quick Over there grab the coffee made myself a sandwich We're not even halfway done our day yet in the sun starting to go down Yes, at least a long line knock on wood. I haven't seen a moose in a long time I don't know if their population numbers are going down or what's going on. What's going on with the moose? I used to see them on every trip in the past couple of years nothing Knock on wood. Let's keep it that way stay in the bush. I Hope they're okay. I just hope they're learning to stay off the road. Get a moose. It's like hitting a car You're done truck is done pack it in go home. It's nipagon, Ontario It was a long day of driving long day Did 992 kilometers so that's 600 miles. We did reach our destination. I had four hours I could have kept going I could have made it to Thunder Bay or just past Thunder Bay but it was late already and it was raining pretty hard when I rolled into the town here and it's It's quite it reduced the visibility at night when it's raining and you have very black asphalt whenever they redo the asphalt And you had a heavy rain. I Had the same problem when I was in New York State, right? I Found that I couldn't exactly see very well at all during the rain at night. I could keep going I mean I've driven through worse a lot worse, but Why risk it? I'm far enough that I can get there like the rest of my by way today The next day that'll be tomorrow's video So why push it in risk, you know, either running into a moose on the road or you know, somebody else Who could leave their lane? I had one guy already when it was raining pretty hard He wasn't staying in his lane and he was wandering into my lane Luckily, I was paying attention and I could just go onto the shoulder sort of avoid him as he's coming straight at me Really upset me freaked me out a bit, but you know those of you who drives through northern Ontario here Know that you want to reduce your risk as much as it could be a dangerous highway There's a whole bunch of nicknames that we have for this highway that I'll leave for you to under to figure out but a lot of these nicknames they sort of Represent the fact that this isn't really a safe highway all the time Especially in winter time. It's a very narrow two lane road They tried to widen it by like a few feet. We need a four lane going all the way through here But that would be so astronomically expensive We could do it, you know for the safety of our people, but That's a topic for a different video on a different channel Our money seems to be allocated elsewhere to other things that have nothing to do with us but It would be very very expensive and they don't want to do it. It is what it is right so northern Ontario We're gonna get through the rest of it today will be out on the prairies before you know it I got to be in Winnipeg tonight tomorrow morning. I'm gonna deliver this freight And I'm gonna bring my trailer back to our yard handed on my paperwork and go to my shop and then go home I have a few days booked off. I believe the rest of this week. We'll be at home Finishing some projects. It's our wedding anniversary coming up. I want to do something special for that And just spend some time at home with the family so tune in I'll try to keep you guys updated here on the channel as the week progresses sometimes when I'm at home the videos aren't As abundant I'm very distracted when I'm at home. I'm very busy, so I don't always have time to Make long-form videos every day, but It is on my mind. So I'll do my best. I'll see you then right go down below make sure you're subscribed. Don't miss it Stay safe be safe and drive safe out here. It's crazy in northern Ontario drive safe Watch out for everyone You know what I'm talking about it's crazy out there
