The most that I like of this video is the sound of that TURBO!!!!!!!!!!

[@billcorrie6064]

Hi Dan, I don't know if you read comments but!!!, am a retired UK OTR truck driver(called lorry drivers over here) after 40 years. Your educational comments about snow/ice driving was a lesson I also learned and used over many years. I enjoy you videos, to me a real "lorry driver" of the old school. Hard life but wish you well.

[@marte1a256]

Now thats a man who cares about his truck. Drove a little extra to avoid chances of parking lot mishaps: 👏🏻

[@freedomfan4272]

Alot of accidents happen at truck stops

[@funnyfarm5555]

The ice will get you if you are not careful. On our road here in Oregon it is 7.5 miles long from town to another road, people use it as a shortcut to the other road instead of going west to the start of the other road which is mostly straight. The first 2 miles are straight then a long gentle s curve then starts getting crooked then a half mile straight stretch then a sharp s curve. The temperature yesterday morning was 34, but people drive like there is no tomorrow and yesterday the sharp curve got two more vehicles. Makes about 40 accidents and 8 deaths on this road in 28 years we have lived here. The sharp s curve has claimed about 15 cars and the curves were lessened from 90° decades ago. Keep driving safe Dan.

[@pgadams1]

Loved the trip today.

[@markmiller1835]

Awesome good move to the rest area and looking out for your equipment. Oh I like the driving time also

[@toxic1venom]

Thanks for sharing and hope all goes well with your doctors appointment. Keep us informed sir, take care, stay safe and God Bless. LT. Nichols

[@donniechumley974]

Dan by far you are the best trucking channel on you tube. I have watched all 477 videos. Have a safe trip home.

[@Jesse-le9bh]

Thanks for the road footage. Just your monologue and the truck...no music 👍.

[@Krieghandt]

My mom's favorite thing when watching truckers park on snow or dirt. How they will all neatly line up on the first one there, and park. so in the morning, all the trucks will be parallel with you :)

[@geraldlessard7446]

Dan, thanks for the bonus footage!!! Travel safe.

[@dennismckown4951]

love the snow since i don't have drive in it anymore. :) we had some snow here in the valley last Nov, next day it was gone. lot of snow in the mtns though. better up there, means more water for the farmers in the hot summer months.

[@leonardshutty6516]

I was a trainer at my company for a few years and the tire spray was one of the first things I told the new driver.

[@franbric5640]

Hey Dan , since you are the first and only one in the rest area , and the ground is like the "white sheet of paper" , take a "Dorsey red" spray and paint your own parking spot.

[@trucksnorway]

Hello Dan🙂 It's good to see that you got the long hood Pete going again 👍 Great job👍👍 And the trailer is real nice! Now you only need to hit those fuel tanks with some polish😁😉 Greetings from Norway

[@adambrunt7290]

Sweet an extra supertrucker Dan video on a Monday morning. 🤘

[@heaterguy5498]

My son went to helicopter training, just south of you , at that rest area. Your near Holland MI.

[@stovebolt448]

Thanks for the video Dan always fun playing in the snow with 4 wheeler's.

[@Skynet-1]

Welcome to my home state. Bonus video 👍👍👍 thanks!

[@jenniferneumann716]

Morning Dan. Good tip for black ice ❄️😎 Keep safe and warm buddy 😎🇬🇧

[@mowmanjones3353]

[@KB-gs8zi]

Sir Dan !!! You are in ""STORM NATHANIEL"" According to ""TWC"" !!! Some areas are to get up to 8" of snow so be aware & ""KEEP IT SAFE ""!!!

[@JMAC-rs6ey]

Beautiful pictures and I love all ur videos stay safe Dan.

[@edwardboyd9996]

I also like that rest area. It's always empty and they keep it clean.

[@digthisnz1943]

Nice timing Dan 8.00pm Monday night in New Zealand. Awesome videos really enjoy them.

[@chuckyf-u2395]

If stuff melts while you're asleep 😴 and other drivers start coming in and realize you're not properly parked...they'll be calling you an asshole 🤣😂

[@briansims4365]

Thx for the ride along bonus coverage!

[@louisglen1653]

I have a friend who works for the Ministry of Transportation here in Ontario. She told me the most dangerous time on the highway during the winter is when the ground temperature is the same as the air temperature...

[@garryewing3604]

Great video Dan thank you 👍👍👍

[@danielvrana9444]

That’s funny no one there!! You should have done some donuts. If the Bear showed up just say for clearing off the snow to see the lines. Lmao

[@myjet4life]

Looks like the new quarter fenders are going to be put to the test with the nasty roads. Love the content keep it up, and stay safe!

[@ko9446]

The grapevine was closed today due to snow, highway 58 that is used as a way around the closed grapevine was closed today too. I guess after 9 or so hours they have just started escorting traffic through. Thank goodness my company has a plan to have me deliver elsewhere when this happens.

[@bigshot55]

The truck sounds really nice.

[@ronnieterry9275]

Time to watch a good movie and enjoy the outdoor winter season. Tomorrow mosey on down the road and get loaded and head down the road toward a warmer climate.

[@chriskahlson]

Nice rest stop and with a fresh APU you’ll have aux power with reassurance

[@archhoagland6192]

Thanks for the Black Ice tips, good to know.

[@russwondergem38]

Hey Dan great video. You also could have stayed on I-196 to M-6 to Grand Rapids and then 131 south to another truck stop on 76th Street

[@thomjarman]

Hi from UK. Good black ice tips! Have been through Benson on the way to/from Tombstone. Hope Doc visit OK.

[@pauldietrich478]

Never thought about it, but good point on the black ice....

[@devtrash]

I've not been to a Michigan rest area but Massachusetts were pretty nice.

[@hammers1518]

C'mon Dan. Every video is a bonus from you!!!

[@williamsmith2804]

Thanks for the bonus video, I enjoy seeing your world. How do you get heat in the cab with only a generator instead of an APU?

[@johnmcclain7072]

I'm picky about where I park also. That's smart trucking.

[@richorourke7872]

Ok Dan be safe out there keep Door locked.

[@official_savage9027]

I-94 is horrible in the winter. Last year or the year before they had a huge pileup. Have one or 2 big one's every winter.

[@davidanddiana7173]

Cool stuff y

[@anthonyjennings8108]

Arw there any problems at those rest areas you stay at,on the east coast alot go's on and you have to be careful

[@michaeldavenport5034]

Thanks for the bonus video. Since it appears each state has different limits for overnight parking at their rest areas, do truckers get hassled sleeping overnight at these places? Or what I'm seeing on their rest area sites incorrect?

[@frodrickfronkensteen9241]

Good video. What do you do to kill time when you're off duty? Movies? Books?

[@dennismckown4951]

if it wasn't windy you could get out and use your broom to find the lines/lane. just a thought.

[@hagfan78]

Great video as always Dan!! Quick question...Have you by chance done a video explaining how you got into trucking and what trucking school you attended? My husband and I have followed your channel for sometime now and we were just wondering.

[@theocop66]

Exactly. It's not how or where I park, it's the other guy I'm worried about.

[@charlescharles6239]

Thnx for the tips about black ice never new

[@inlikearefugee5194]

Yeah but it wasn't too clear cut to me. So the tyre sprays signify black ice or the lack of it ?

@@crackermcwhitey1364 Thanks - I suppose that's how those 2 cars & a pick-up truck landed in the ditch. Stay safe .

[@crackermcwhitey1364]

@@inlikearefugee5194 It's a rule of thumb analogy. If they've been salting all day or the temp is above 32f we all know what happens. Likewise when the temp drops below 32f we know what happens. Best to play defence when it looks glassy and no spray. Drive friendly

Hey Dan! Have you been thinking about putting that lift axle on switch inside the cabin, like the dumpvalve?

[@dennismckown4951]

wow, once they kept the govenor's sticky fingers off Fed road money, Michigan got smooth roads. when i was up there it was like driving I-10 west from Baton Rouge to Houston. roads bad enough to make your filings fall out.

[@1jeffheck]

😂😂😂

[@parkestevens9822]

At about the 10:20 mark you set your brakes. It sounded like both the truck and the trailer. If that is correct. Why both sets of brakes in those conditions? I would be concern my trailer brakes would freeze.
