[@RebelDawg91]

Not a truck driver. Currently in the military. I been enjoying watching your videos from overseas especially with the covid lockdown stuff going around.

[@wanderingpete3196]

Thank you for your service!

[@wanderingpete3196]

And thanks for watching too!

[@alviney5138]

THANKS FOR LETTING US KNOW WHERE YOU ARE RUNNING -- ALWAYS LIKE TO KNOW THE ROUTE.

[@randallwoodbury653]

I used to run the 50 out Grand Junction to the 550 to the 25 to get to Albuquerque if I was in the area, beautiful drive

[@Chris_sti19]

Awesome view

[@tomaugust6]

Hello from Brisbane Australia. Like your channel a lot. Has some good content and I like the scenery as you are driving. I had an opportunity to come to the U.S 20 years ago to try driving there but didn't take it. Drive Loaders here in Brisbane now. Take care.

[@josevivanco756]

My kind of road!!🤠🤠 best chicken indeed 😬😋

[@mistylanham8786]

Bueatiful country and great truck driving road!! My wife and kids swear by Popeyes. Be safe and GOD BLESS DRIVER!

[@bunker108]

That’s all good road...the no center median is a little sketchy for 70mph road, but it’s good trucking through there

[@erektownsend749]

Really cool to see you running in my neck of the woods I run up and down 550 quite a bit hauling propane!

[@Ray-wc9pl]

I think I've seen you out there before you drive the freightliner right

[@jessecastro4733]

Be safe out there brother!!! The road definitely demands your utmost attention!!!😎✌️

[@jeffrogers8314]

550 north of durango is beautiful great road for the harleys wife and i love it little tight for the big trk

[@GRADERFL]

I rebuilt a 1921 cooper/besemer 2 stoke straight 8 at that gas plant on the left @the 5:50 mark

[@mikewhite3098]

Loaded yesterday in Belen, NM. Beautiful country out there. Wish I could get out there more often than I do. Freight for my wagon just don’t go there very much. Happy Trails to you.

[@garyskowbo3564]

Yeah 550 is definitely the better way to get to Albuquerque from Shiprock/ Farmington area. Lived in s.e. Utah for many years, you probably went through Moab. “Correct “? Hey thanks for sharing another great video with us!😎🤟

[@MarksTruckingLife]

I heard that on WBAP the other morning about the chicken 😎😎😎

[@steveclark4291]

Thank you for the ride and seeing some amazing scenery ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with wherever you maybe headed next ! Doing well here in Kansas other than real windy and cold 66 mph winds in the northwest part of Kansas .

I recognized the view immediately, for I've run a lot of loads (mostly oilfield loads like treaters and 15 to 16-foot-wide pipe-rack assemblies) in and out of Farmington and Bloomfield (permit loads kinda suck since NM cuts the speed limit to 65mph max). I also run this way with permit loads when cutting over into Utah via Monticello and Moab... 550 is great road up until Durango, where it turns into the Million Dollar Highway (built on the original toll roads/narrow-gauge right-of-ways in the San Juan Mountains). I've run a big truck up on the north end through Silverton and Ridgeway but empty only (I admire those that make that run on a regular basis). This beats 491 any day but you really have to watch the lack of fuel stops up that way (even in Farmington/Bloomfield, a lot don't take the common fuel cards... Weird, eh?). Some days you won't see aaaany law enforcement or DOT on 550, other days, you'll swear you're running a gauntlet (always watch for the reservation police around the casino near Cuba, though). Just came up 287 yesterday after loading over in Paris with a back-haul to drop off in Eaton, CO on the way back to Casper. We often ran in ice fog when I was driving in the oilfield up in North Dakota and I think I hated it worse than any of the snow, mud, or ice that we ran in every day of the year.

[@gregstoll7609]

I live in Farmington we drive that road a lot

[@xxxyyyzzz7739]

My stomping ground. I live in NE Arizona and travel us550 all the time.

[@VeteransHamShack]

Listen... I'm from KY and I still like Popeyes better than KFC lol Amazing scenery out there in NM man! Best of luck to you and your company! Hope to see more from you soon! I remember a while back you said you might add a 3rd in February.....

[@paceta80]

Bad ass channel

[@ronkish1663]

Yep 550 good running it’s all redone, keep an eye out for the reservation cops tho they’re sneaky !!

[@davidanddiana7173]

Cool stuff man 👍

[@steveclark4291]

Wow what happened suddenly cannot hardly see !

[@ttjeepjl5146]

What exactly is that u haul in those tankers, and how many states do you run

[@triptriplett4285]

I remember when 550 was a 2 lane goat trail, it’s the best way to go now.😎👍

[@steveclark4291]

Hot dog the roller coaster ride again ! Let'er rip !

[@tomallis3954]

Enjoyed that ride for sure. Your dash looks really BA. Thank you for sharing!

[@gorilla5325]

Im looking into buying a truck and being a owner op, but hiring a driver full-time. I have never been in trucking before. basically would be my side business any thoughts advise comments etc.........

[@dannygregg3906]

Hey Brother you made it home safely. That's what's important. As always thanks for the view. Say hi to Sally. Until next time.

[@gregstoll7609]

That was called Lybrook It a propane plant

[@chadmock5883]

You sound a lot like Josh Turner. 😎

[@GTOAviator]

Cool video, time-lapse music was on point. Yeah can you imagine living out there? I always wonder what life is like when I drive by tiny little towns on the outskirts of nothing.

[@kennyorr3797]

I enjoy the videos. I think I've met you on Hwy 6 a couple of times.

[@GRADERFL]

I used to work the oil field in this area.

[@DutchK75]

I live off of 550.

[@Aaron-fq5kp]

South of Bloomfield and north of Cuba NM.

[@WhiteLinesBlueSkies]

I used to work at the Los Alamos National Labs in Los Alamos. NM has some beautiful country. WLBS

[@clintishmael4466]

You went by my house

[@fishlips8336]

New Mexico and those 55mph spots that suddenly appear out of nowhere & for no reason are speed traps for the Papa Bears quota.

[@sampson4685]

I agree with you on Popeyes!

[@chopplolo72]

Popeyes chicken sandwich is the best.

[@cw4558]

So what were the top 5? Yes agree Popeyes #1

[@roemarlin3902]

Popeyes then church's

[@geesss8675]

The problem where I live is if I go to Popeyes I'll be carjacked robbed beaten and my chicken will be stolen. I can only go there when it's warm so that if I'm leaving in my Underpants and Barefoot I'm not in in an in an awkward moment

[@DON-T909]

Like your videos, but do not like speeded up parts

[@bradmyers3327]

Freezing fog........no thanks. Have you ever headed towards the East Coast or just closer to Texas and West Coast?

[@GRADERFL]

Bad lands of N.M.

[@raymondbradley6788]

Good roads, no traffic, 70 mph speed limit sounds like a win-win. Popeyes rules. Only a bunch of idiots who believe in all this nonsense would not put them in the top five😎😎😎👍👍👍
