No you don’t have too much of an ego and your videos are great. Keep doing what you do Trucker Josh.

[@thomasmcmanus6575]

Hey Josh, Moncton . As you pass by Moncton, pull over and say a prayer for the 5 State Police officers that were killed in the line of duty. I'll never forget the pain the family and all of us were feeling that day. God rest.Bye for now from New Jersey 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍

[@Andy-ir1sj]

Round abouts were proven by myth busters to be the most efficient way to move the most traffic as opposed to stop signs and traffic lights. Cheers ! love the content !

[@SamuelManaole]

Every man needs an ego yours is not overboard. I think some viewers are looking at your confidence as part of your ego. YOU GO SUPER DUPER TRUCKER JOSH !!!!! 🤣

[@Iskandarko]

When there’s such a thing as “Language police”, you realize that something went very wrong in this place.

[@dinggo1]

Haters will be haters. I love your vlog.

[@lostjackets4006]

75 bucks!!?? Talk about highway robbery

[@maxracingteam23]

Canadian dollars. So Isn’t that much 😂😂

[@pierremcculloch9971]

That’s for 2 ways …

[@maxracingteam23]

Maybe it’s bridge robbery 🤔🤔🤔

[@DerekHurst]

Cheaper than a ferry...

[@shaker1969]

Great video as always Josh keep it up!!

[@sachadee.6104]

If you want to see a LOT of roundabouts, you ought to go to Great Britain. They've had them for decades there. The first time I went there from mainland Europe, I didn't know what I saw. Geeee, hardly you were in highest gear or you had to slow down (they are great for "U"-turns though, when you lost the way and need to go back). They do keep traffic flowing better instead of an intersection with lights but in a big truck they may be cumbersome.

[@thomasmcmanus6575]

Awesome video. Thx fo🇺🇸r the ride along with Josh. Keep them coming !God bless you and your family.🇺🇸🇨🇦👍

[@jamesoliver565]

My father used to haul cooking oil from Rhode Island to there before the bridge was built on a ice breaker.

[@maryrussell7298]

Trucker Josh you always have the greatest attitude!

[@davemccollum2918]

You need to buy a bridge Josh, you will be rich in no time:)

[@RickyOHD]

9:02 that’s legit criminal holy smokes

[@tylerc8273]

PEI= No truck stops, no truck parking, no truck pull overs, no fuel, but some of the nicest people around. In my experience i sleep in moncton or Aulac, cross the bridge in the morning, get my island business done then leave again before my day is up

[@drive4life424]

Prince Edward Island sounds similar to the California bay area, not too truck friendly. Park outside of it run in do any drops and pickups and then run out.

[@rockeerockey6941]

Sitting here watching Josh on PEI, while waiting for a hurricane to hit... Excellent content Josh 😊

[@user-sl7mv6ck5t]

Loving your videos bro 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

[@supper7...]

Fantastic voyage we're on! Loved the drive over the bridge!! But at 11:10...Yikes! Good thing there was no oncoming traffic! Love your vlogs, Josh! 😊

[@russellwhite8890]

You could have had a blizzard you didn’t have to get the biggest one they made. Ha ha.

[@Canadians31]

I live in the next province over in nova Scotia Yarmouth i always keep an eye out for you and ole blue in case you come this way

[@huathai8204]

It is a sign police that emits fine for the French thing in advertising in general. If you have the time park your ride at a truck stop in Levis, take a cab toward the ferry and get a stroll in "vieux Quebec".

[@pierrebelliveau6494]

the truckstop at grey rock nb hass a place that makes a delicious poutine. i won't tell if you don't

[@user-dm9wk1lk6r]

The building you saw in downtown Charlottetown was Province House. It’s the birthplace of Canada. Geez Josh you should have got that one. All the best. Andrew.

[@francoispanneton609]

Valcourt is Bombardier Recreational Vehicles headquarters (SkiDoos, Can-Am, Spider, etc…) Maybe you are picking up some toys!! By the way, $75 doesn’t seem that expensive to cross the Confederation Bridge both ways with a semi. They are obviously facilitating the transportation industry 👍🏼👍🏼 It cost us $65 to cross with out truck and travel trailer this summer…

[@timmyangeltlc4888]

Awe man. You would have been coming to my home state if that load had gone through. Some other time. $75 for a toll. Holy banana's.

[@sachadee.6104]

the George Washington Bridge NYC is $ 100 (CA$ 136 !!!!) and a lot shorter.

[@charlesgriffin2002]

I googled it, yes Quebec has a language police. It says: "Their whole thing is to ensure that French is the normal and primary language used by everyone and the only language used by any government agency in Quebec."

[@Trucker_Josh]

Yep. That's Quebec

[@IlocanoFilipinoC]

Beautiful scenery of that part of the country Trucker Josh..

[@wbball15]

A lost puppy. That's ironic.

[@PDSI2007]

Went through my very first roundabout about 45 years ago in the maritimes. Never saw one before in my life. I think out east got them before anywhere else in Canada. Came in too fast and almost lost the 45 ft flat bed with the entire load. Was early enough in the morning that I was able to use all lanes to save the load. One mistake I haven't made since.

[@karenatha7890]

They have ginormous roundabouts in Mexico City.

[@SweeneyJeffreyJ]

Josh if I didn’t know any better, I’d say your enjoying this trip. I’m glad your having a good time buddy. I’m sure Britt and Theo and the dogs will be happy when you get home.

[@markusmansson730]

Sometimes you need to treat yourself to something sweet.😊

[@rogerhiskey6106]

Just sailed under that bridge two days ago

[@user-qt5ic6qk2h]

The videos are for baby G it doesn't matter if there good or bad just as long as your true to yourself

[@Donald_Shaw]

Wow, that is a super long bridge!!! I'd hate to have a breakdown because it would take forever to have someone come out to help. Beautiful scenery. Thanks for taking us along. Take care, Trucker Josh.

[@johnoconnor7536]

@Donald_Shaw Ever wonder how they constructed the bridge. What type of cranes and cofferdams were required. The human race are very resourceful when they put their minds to it.

[@sachadee.6104]

CAD $ 75 is not fun but I believe it's the price what used to be charged to the ferry before the bridge was there? Anyway... If you live in the East and run USA there are af couple of tolls to be paid in bridges that are borders (Peace bridge, Ambassador bridge CA$ 54 and $ 70) or crossing George Washington bridge northbound US$$$$$ 100.

[@BigDave63]

Valcourt is Bombarier. They used to be quite quick at loading there. I used to haul Ski-doos and Sea-doos a fair amount. Multi drop loads tho. I had 12 drops with 24 Ski-doos, over 6 states.

[@BigDave63]

But they are running you about 650 miles empty, at least. But I have run empty from Stienbach to Sautle StMarie, ont.

[@jillotto5762]

Hi Trucker Josh another great video I always love going over Bridges withy mom and dad on vacation have a safe trip god bless miss seeing Britt and little baby Theo in your Videos

[@bigal-ox9jw]

Ran weekly across to PEI( reefer trailer hauling meat) from Moncton when it opened up and before high sided restrictions, went across in a snow/wind storm and wind was blowing so hard it lifted my bonnet and I could see the engine fan and it stopped my air wipers from turning. The next Day on the island there were three trucks laying on their side around Kensington (between Summerside and charlottetown) from a wind gust the night before.

[@mitchboudreau3227]

Drove across that bridge many times, first time just after it got built

[@darrenboudreau9092]

I pass on that bridge 1 or 2 time in 18 wheeler as well

[@scottwheeler2494]

The Confederation Bridge is the worlds longest bridge over ICE covered water at 8 miles. The actual worlds longest is Lake Pontchatrain (sp) in Louisiana at roughly 24 miles. There are several causeways over 15 miles long in the US. The one over the lake opened in 1956 and it had a second bridge opening only a few years later. The Gulf coast area has a bunch of long bridges over the swamps. Just FYI.

[@MichaelW969]

Not any longer, there are 6 longer bridges in China and one in Thialand longer than Lake Pontchartrain.

[@SamuelManaole]

I gotta see a documentary on how they build those super bridges. It's mind boggling any general contractor does this work out in the ocean (Gulf/ inlets)?

[@scottwheeler2494]

It's a matter of definition in part. The Chinese bridge is a combination of bridges and tunnels to get to its total distance. Regardless at least one of those bridges is the longest today. I forgot the North American caveat to my earlier statement. The Chinese Bridge is a stunning build. They leveled islands to build it. The one that connects the Hong Kong Airport is another. The Chinese have built many amazing projects over the past 30 years - dams, bridges and airports are but a few.

[@karenatha7890]

Quite the opposite of stormy weather. I bet it can get gnarly. 75 bucks? Woooo.

[@JoseCarlos-BarbosaJunior]

Top as always thanks for your vídeos! Congratulations 🎉

[@user-jz2gi2mv5g]

Keep them coming.

[@melvinsheppard279]

[@carolmatz7944]

[@andyfletcher7535]

It 274 euro to go thru mont blanc tunnel between France and Italy. One way. At least you get a great view for 75 bucks. Awsome country

[@darrenboudreau9092]

Wow your in PEI. Other few hours you would of been near my neck of the woods. I'm just 45 minutes on the other side of the Canso Causeway lol I also started a KZbin channel by the name of Trucker - Darren

[@tericnoah8836]

[@allenchandler3488]

Relaxing music, and outstanding scenery.

[@russellbell7580]

[@onlyGRT]

Super nice video. Small precision the bridge is the world's longest bridge over ice-covered water.

[@user-sr4cj5zv5g]

Loved your four part mini-series. I would like to visit the maritimes. I’m watching from Southern California.

[@JanesDough855]

I couldn't imagine the traffic jam if there was an accident on that bridge. Keep my piggies on solid ground. Have a restful evening and tomorrow will be an exciting day!

[@user-rm1mf8eh3d]

wow~ 75 …🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@TheTojocat]

[@waynesanford7006]

[@karenatha7890]

[@kanadatruckerphilipp]

Prince Edward Island has no Truck Stop…

[@KodyCaron]

Buy some of those dude showers. Theyre like oversized wet wipes better than nothing lol

[@trevorfillmore698]

I used to cross that bridge twice a week. It sucks when the bridge is closed due to high winds. One trip the wind was so strong it was lifting the hood of the truck I had a International and the hood straps were weak I was waiting for the hood to blow off and go into and Straight lol.

[@67shelbygt500]

$75 oh my god I almost had a heart attack for you❤

[@kirstenbirch9962]

Nice footage of the Island. You lucked out and caught a sunny day. Being a prairie boy, were your arms tired from all the steering?

[@scootercarneal9625]

Hey Josh, you should take a load into Utah, Moab area, it's an awesome place! BEAUTIFUL

[@Trucker_Josh]

I've been there before! It really is beautiful!

[@TheAmericanDreamed]

@@Trucker_Joshone of favourite towns Just gorgeous

[@Gurra_Gforce]

[@mattdickinson8170]

[@TheAmericanDreamed]

[@donald-1463]

You said you were going to show us PE island and that's what you did

[@garyjohnson8726]

How did you eat your blizzard while on the road ? asking for a friend lol

[@ladyslipper4647]

I'm sure those that say you have a big ego are just joshing you, LOL. Because all I see is you just being you. And just before you said you've been watching your calories, I thought your face looked thinner. Have a safe trip.❤

[@max1349]

13 km bridge, for your Canadians subscriber.

[@ConcFour9050]

Good Question ... Possible Truck Stop or Layover Area on the Island ?? That would be a Question for a Midland or Sunbury Transport Driver, their part of the Irving Family... Cheers

[@Paul.Vice.official]

👍

[@travisrussell9166]

man 75.00 dollars, thats a good chunk of money taken out of pay for that load, there is i think its a 7 mile bridge if you drive out to Key West Florida. what kind of blizzard do you like. i always get the M&M one. They are getting expensive, but so is everything else

[@donberry227]

No lobster sandwich in PEI Josh? LOL

[@nsfmatt]

Thank you, Trucker Josh, for another great video! Quick question-on your trailer, when you are empty, are you able to raise one of the axles and run on only one trailer axle? If so, would that have reduced the toll, since you would be using only four axles instead of five?

[@rockeerockey6941]

Company trailer, so I'd guess no.

[@Boodieman72]

Roundabouts are great.

[@smooth6428]

Pretty sure you usually are talking about coffee for Timmy's, but what would you say their main food item is or best?
