[@RoadTrainAdventures]

Awesome. It was a lot of fun making this so it was our pleasure.

[@bknighty28]

@@RoadTrainAdventures In case anyone ever reads this. I myself thought this life could be for me. When Johnno was explaining how it can be stressful to learn the realities of the job, he's not by any means kidding. It can be hard to get homesick and be days away from being able to see family. Every moment of free time you have outside of working is meant for sleep because every moment you don't spend driving is lost money. Keep in mind that while you're driving all of your attention is given to the road. This leaves very little free time to actually build or mend connections. Don't get me wrong. Driving a truck can be great. But most truck driving jobs where you can go home every night require incredibly stressful city driving. Getting cut off every few minutes while hauling 15/30/60+ thousand pounds is a whole other level of stress. You have to be okay with letting other people hurt themselves and its a strange experience.

Millenial truck driver here. You can really learn a lot from these old hats such as Jonno. Shame a lot of 'em are retiring as time goes on. But to learn how to drive manual (10-13-18-speed) and also be "raised" by old school truck drivers, is a blessing. A lot of the time they're just like Jonno in terms of humor and just enjoying what he does and fill in any questions anyone might have. Good video and great spotlight on the industry. I might be in the states, but the mindset is truly universal.

There are more of us older drivers getting out of the game now as it just isn't enjoyable any longer. I have just recently retired after 46 years on the road, and unfortunately, it couldn't come soon enough. The past 10-15 years have seen the industry change, and not for the better. I'm afraid, I used to enjoy waking each morning looking forward to what the day would bring. But in the end just a chore as all the fun and comradeship had gone out of it. And don't even get me started on drivers that have no idea how to drive a manual truck.

$3300 USD in California for 686 gallons of average price Unleaded/Diesel fuel at $4.75. Trucks only get between 6-8 miles to the gallon. At 8 miles per gallon it would give a fuel range of about 5500 miles. However, in Australia $3800 converts into American dollars to about $2500. Meaning Australians are paying $800 less in fuel, for the same range but with the added benefit that the cost of hauling 2 extra trailers (a total of 4) over the American limitation of only 2 trailers is built in and is extra profit being able to be delivered at the same time on one truck, double the amount of goods with a 1/4 savings makes Australian truck shipping extremely lucrative, and American truck shipping less so.

American in the Northern Territory and road trains boggle my mind! Appreciate our truckies so much. Kangaroo eyes don’t reflect like most wildlife, they are like deer? Much of Australia is wild and remote soooo bulls are also a problem, sometimes camels too lol!! I’m homesick, I hope you had fun!!!

[@matthewcullen1298]

I'm Aussie and got homesick when overseas but was also having a ball where I was. I hope you're also enjoying the adventure down under as well mate😊

[@Ree_Devon24]

I drive one of these in America & it's so cool to see how they do it overseas. We basically do the same thing, but we have different terminology

[@RoadTrainAdventures]

Yes. I'd be lost in USA with the difference in terminology for everything.

It would appear that not all Australian trucks that size have the 3 Michigan marker lights centered at the top on each end, amber front, red rear. North American trucks of that size (and buses) have them.

[@martinws8416]

@@smwca123 They have them on the front but often not on the back of the trailer. The law in the US/Canada is about a vehicle wider than 2 meters/80'' are required to have them on top, which I think is very good indeed. Many trucks in Europe have the amber orange clearance lights in front as well (1 at each side, 3 in the middle) or red on the rear of the trailer, it's indeed so much better to have them.

This is what i call content. Keep up the good work. Fun fact this is my first video I've watched on your channel. And Johnno, he's an awesome man.

[@kazwilson425]

Great video, original content and super interesting. Thanks for the ride Johnno & Downie!

[@nobelahmed7959]

One of the nicest and realest videos you made in a while. Keep up the good work and your co-star is just a gem. Best wishes for him. ❤😀

I LOVE the Nullarbor drive so much, it's my favourite road in the country. I've got a good hour-long video on my channel crossing it over three days living out of a van if anyone is curious about the journey from a different point of view. Crossing it in a road train looks wild!
