Jack, you would be the neighbor every guy would love to have. Great video!

[@tomallis3954]

Always look forward to a ride along with you Professor. Never a dull moment. Reality trucking from the passenger seat. Thank you once again Jack for sharing your adventures. Your the HOSS!

[@apocyldoomer]

Tom Allis no he's not

[@bh1567]

Love the videos jack, my 5 Y/O son comes running when your intro plays. Loyal watcher 4yrs!!

[@davidmckinzie6009]

Enjoy your videos very much jack, I don’t get tired of watching your trips. Hope you have a great day and be safe, I am out in San Diego enjoying the beautiful weather.

[@Deerwood1985]

Excellent as usually, thank you. Regards from Argentina.

[@jbot6902]

Thanks for your amazing videos Jack !

[@tobyfortez5883]

I love watching your videos!! I love to travel, I recently traveled route 66 and it was amazing! Be safe out there Jack

[@petervaneverdink448]

I guess it never really struck me as to how many light loads get hauled on most freight trucks. Here in Alberta, Canada we are legal at just over 87,000 lbs. gross weight. I was farmer hauling my own grain and regularly legally scaled 60,000 lb. loads. I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@JohnBurnet1]

You probably wouldn't sell many of the shipping / receiving signs because everywhere you go they don't bother with them. Great films Jack.

[@marvinelder3828]

Great video. I have learned to expect nothing but the best from you.

[@cathy9160]

jack your shirt looks fine.and really enjoy your talk on trucking.

[@throttleboy08]

I absolutely never turn down a free truck wash and no RIDERS, Jack

[@johnlambert9760]

Another great vid as always. Thanks Jack

[@skagited9617]

Kudos to your sound man, there, Jack!! A bit tough to catch that rendition of 'Jamaica Farewell' at the beginning, but we sang that in grade school many moons ago. Ahh, memories! Just starting to watch the vid, but had to comment on that tune!

[@r.mcgraw1231]

When I have my pickup in the shop for repairs and they don't have the parts. They phone the parts store and have the parts that I need delivered. The cost of the parts is added to my bill. I like the music at the beginning. Thanks for the videos. Be save driving.

[@johnspano2487]

AS ALWAYS, Really enjoyed the video.. Be safe out here Driver..

[@Mike6StringsIn]

Interesting about that shop not having the oil for the rears. In my dad's shop, it was he and I that worked there and we kept a 25 or 30 gallon barrel on wheels all the time and would never consider putting oil drained into a pan back into the housing.

[@b61mack56]

Always carry a bag of baking soda with you when you haul batteries. Sprinkle some on the wet spots it will neutralize the acid and you can sweep it right out the door.

[@Koreanarmygirl]

B61 Mack Good to know. Thanks for the tip.

[@jamesstepp9982]

The smell of fresh battery acid-ALMOST as good as the smell of burnt fan belt. LOL

[@thomaskirkpatrick4031]

Hey Jack, after all these years I would have thought that buy now you would have got yourself a fridge and a microwave. It saves a lot of aggravation at the end of the day looking for a place to get food, not to mention the money it saves.

[@Koreanarmygirl]

Thomas Kirkpatrick or the food poison.

[@semiretired6033]

I have been following Jack for quite some time and i am really sorry to say he doesn,t eat very healthy,he probably thinks he does.Aside from some fresh veggies he sometimes nibbles on, everything else he eats is junk..

[@dtm7909]

truckers dont care about there health

[@truckingreviewchannel]

Now that's some fine weather Jake

[@brumsgrub8633]

Love watching, from a trucker in the UK

[@samraedeker8002]

Thanks for a nice ride. Be safe!

[@adamkatt]

Damn Jack youre a machine with the updates these days!

[@davidbottomley6571]

Loved the intro guitar music. Hope you have a successful and happy 2018. Keep the videos coming.

[@rsmith3126]

When I was a teenager, I used to drive pickup loads of used car batteries to that facility from Montgomery. Jack's load was probably used "wet cell" batteries being bought by the pound.

[@giork2828]

15:35 that’s a tricky shot there, Jack. You’d got yourself a lot lady holding the camera there on yer left shoulder? 😮 Hope all is well, sir. Take care.

[@alejandrayalanbowman367]

Jack, you seem to have picked up a troll : Apocyl Doomer

[@CDLMAX]

I didn't know 7 eleven had good coffee Jack. My husband always stops at Del Taco in Baker, CA for his coffee.

[@uncledudley4265]

Good video, informative as always. You once mentioned that you were looking for a trailer to call your own; ever find one?

[@rolfsinkgraven]

Very nice video and battery acid is bad stuff when it sits long enough.

[@robertlong7033]

Jack. First question. Do electronic logs make things easier or harder? Question 2. Do you see many cab over engines around anymore? Remember what they used to say about driving a COE. You're always the first one at the scene of an accident.

[@davidburton612]

I hope that wasn't a killer bee! I ran thru a swarm of bees once and some got in thru the wing vent window, yes I took a sting or two before I could get stopped. It done a number on my windshield too. Damn bees!!!

[@alanaldrich8069]

I watch your posts with great interest. I live in Sydney Australia where we share the road with every variety of truck and driver. What is the length of your trailer and the overall length of your combination? The speed limit for cars here is 110 kph or about 70mph in your terms. Trucks are limited to 100kph or 60mph. What are the limits in the US? The speed difference here add some complications but we have a big problem with trucks exceeding the limits by excessive amounts resulting in horrifying crashes involving trucks and cars that I don't see in your videos.

[@katmac4125]

Alan Aldrich it depends on what city or state a trucker is in. Regular box or reefer trailers are 53 ft.

[@stu7057]

Hey i am in Austin next time you come through sure would like to buy you a cup of coffee and shake your hand.Really like watching your Volgs

[@shnimmuc]

Very fine, acid and all.

[@dpsears240z]

So what month was this filmed? Grass is too green for January.

[@JC-tn8zh]

Dave Sears Right? He made a comment about how hot it was for the guy working on his truck.

[@truckerdaddy-akajohninqueb4793]

Texas hmm? I know it's scorching in Cuba right now. I spose it could be hot in Texas?

[@jimsmith9931]

Douglas truck repair slogan " We put your used oil back in to cut corners "

[@indianajack]

+Jim Smith LOL

[@bobl78]

oh man, putting back the old oil with 1.2 Mio miles on it and which was in a dirty old pan.... you should regularly change the diff and transmission oil as well..ever change transmission oil ? These wear out as well and don´t last forever... an oil change is much cheaper than a rebuild

[@peterincgy]

What kind of shop does not have diff oil? (sheesh, use the old oil, do they do that on an engine oil change too?) How bad was it leaking, could it wait until you get to a better repair facility? Hope they put in new axel seals?

[@worm2879]

Nice videos keep on trucking

[@steffenfelger3606]

As a bee keeper I recommend: Open the windows for a short while.

[@Dobbs3]

I wonder if Wiley Sanders hauls a lot out of the place you were at in Troy? lol

[@paquitotaquito3318]

San Antonios my hometown.... Great channel man... Gained a Sub! Hope to become a trucker soon... Just dont know really where to go for education...

[@kevinware5102]

They have a new Love s down in Ozark, which is 30 mins south of Troy. It sure beats staying in Montgomery

[@rogerb4436]

Love watcking Jack from trucker in New Zealand, hows ya trailer hunt going?

[@danapitman2269]

Don’t feel too sorry for the guy working on your truck. The very next day it was about 40 degrees colder.

[@gamingguytothemax]

cool video keep up. the. great job

[@billq3619]

HAPPY NEW YEAR, JACK

[@deckerhand12]

How many trucks did you have other then big red. Love the videos

[@EliotJohnson]

Was this a old video? Temps seemed to be low in San Antonio last week

[@billalbion]

I change diff and gearbox oils every two years.

[@jay-rus4437]

What is the cost for a repair like that? Im just curious...im in the home renovations business, so pricing in other types of service business is interesting to me. Thanks

[@saeeda3098]

Wise Choice putting fresh (sympathetic) oil in the differential but next time add on galon of Lucas oil Stabilizer to the differential before you add the new oil you will keep the differential running a lot cooler in the summer especially if you are heavy & Climbing a hill .

[@andywkeith]

Jack, what weather radar app do you use? keep up the awesome videos!!!

[@gti505]

Nice to see. Does it actually drive smoother now with this new oil Jack? Best regards from the Netherlands.

[@MrGerritStok]

Hey hallo, vanuit Dordrecht. Lekker toch, die Indiana Jack verslaving. :)

[@gti505]

Ja hoor. Zeker. Ik heb het vermoeden dat jij met een bakwagen rijdt in Dordrecht. Heb ik dat bij het rechte eind?

[@MrGerritStok]

Nee, is wel familie, neef. Ik rij een Sprinter, UPS kleur. Reclame verwijderd. :)

[@gti505]

Ah, ik woon in 's-Gravendeel, heb hem vorige week nog zien rijden dacht ik. ;-)

[@MrGerritStok]

Heel goed mogelijk. Rij veel spoedjes TU Strijen, voor Cepe uit s'Gravendeel.

[@gamingguytothemax]

great driver too well informed

[@peterunco8449]

For Loads out of San Antonio, Dallas or Houston areas. Try Convoy and Uber Freight. Sometimes they get decent paying loads and they always have freight out of Those Cities.........They do alot of beer and bottled water loads.

[@k.kristianjonsson4814]

A question about the working time rules of 70 hours/week. Say for instance, You are waiting to have the trailer loaded up. Sometimes it can take (incredible) 4-6 hours. Can you log ut, and save these hours to use as driving time?

[@indianajack]

+Kristian Jonsson if you are in your sleeper and or not attending your truck it does not count against your 70 hours.

[@k.kristianjonsson4814]

Does the engine or the electrics, driving the control reading unit (or whatever it is called) has be shut off?

[@katmac4125]

Kristian Jonsson no

[@osvaldoramirez8266]

When looking for just coffee 7 eleven is good enough for good coffee.

[@tpcdude]

did you have to use dangerous material sighs for the battery shipment?

[@Troy77787]

I'm pretty sure I remember seeing this video before. Think it's an old one... maybe I'm wrong

[@Koreanarmygirl]

Do you think mega carriers try to recycle the differential oil or put in new oil? Just curious because I never seen it done till I watched your video.

[@indianajack]

+Miss Ginny Bell I don't think the mega carriers do anything to their trucks other than the bare minimum while they have them. Mainly because they have them such a short period of time.

[@donaldemery1642]

By the way ho made the beginning music and your starting , thanks Don .

[@indianajack]

It is music supplied to KZbin creators. In You Tube, if you go to Video Editor, Create, you will find all the music there.

[@poppypiesdad1]

See at the start of the video .the big sign . Is that fuel prices for a gallon ? .And why the two changing prices?

[@truckerdaddy-akajohninqueb4793]

I would love a video 8:00 on how you get loads. You're associated with traveloko but you have no dispatcher and you have to use a broker? How does that work? I know my company has two businesses. One is a trucking company. Another is a brokerage. I don't pretend to understand. Your load was not there? Or wrong door?

[@johnnelson5997]

I will buy you a meal. If you are ever in Grand Junction CO......videos are cool

[@whateman12408]

Must have ran out of differential oil. OR maybe they have been charging for something they don't carry

[@kenolsen1845]

He choose that line of work.

[@dennismckown3873]

good thing the acid didn't eat through wood while enroute to your drop point.

[@drthomasshaffer6031]

Texas - Alabama? It's -13° here.

[@NigelM18]

Hey cool, @7:13 what app is that?

[@pas42hfd]

Ever think of getting a new truck any time Jack?

[@indianajack]

+Philip Sykes I never thought of that.

[@dprrn]

as good as you are about keeping things maintained you could run that truck for awhile longer! Whats the odometer reading on ol red these days?

[@kansascitysouthernfan6966]

Philip Sykes I believe in one of his past video's he's said that he won't get a new truck until his truck's repair cost is more than what a new truck costs

[@nothanks3462]

Donald Perrin about 1.2 million roughly.

[@SteelyPaw]

1,206,009 miles- give or take a few miles. It's a 2008 Volvo.

[@davefontes8532]

Hi Jack, Some companies like your in and out weights so they know what they are getting. Somebody says there selling you 30K lbs of batteries, they need to know that there is 30K lbs. of batteries.

[@nothanks3462]

I'm always a little envious of those gas prices, 1 US gallon is about $6.35 US here in England. Diesel is more expensive than that. And yes its all tax! Used to be even worse a few years ago, almost €10 dollars per US gallon.

[@truckerdaddy-akajohninqueb4793]

OK. I can deal with seeing green grass in Texas. But leaves on trees?? Come up to Québec Jack. I have something white to show you.

[@jim-uu2db]

And I just found out I need to replace the guts on my home water heater. Always something on the road or at home.

[@kpdvw]

FYI Battery Sulphuric Acid leak? Neutralize with Baking Soda..!

[@ddig3635]

When is part 2 comeing out

[@joelmcgrath9745]

The repairs are adding up

[@theamerican7131]

Maybe, if you had not have been there, they would have put the old oil back in and charged you for new.

[@indianajack]

They probably would have.

[@StVick]

lol thumbs up for the pun...

[@skipwilson5577]

In my opinion 7-Eleven has the best coffee on the Planet

[@anjelicadixon7719]

I love You!

45,000 & 20,000 are the 2 most generic weights I get, when the weight is unknown at the time of booking.

If you can't take a bee sting, just give up.

[@viewerman99]

Ol red did pretty good over 2017. 2018 she is not so sure about

[@wolfgangresch1650]

I HATE bees brother -I'm allergic, so we'll give you a pass to help him (or her) to meet their maker -LOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!

[@whateman12408]

Enjoy your zero drama channel

[@ehsnils]

I can't understand that they even consider putting old oil back into a vehicle after a repair. As soon as you drain oil it will get contaminated. The price of new oil is marginal compared to a trashed differential (or whatever you got fixed) including the standstill.

[@indianajack]

+ehsnils you really have to watch what the shops do these days.

[@MrGerritStok]

because they did'nt have new oil perhaps, :D

[@Hooptierescue]

used do all this mechanic work till I got hurt. it called back braking work fo reason...

[@thomgar6337]

im watchung you last 3 maybe 4 years. im afraid wtah i going do whenn you goo retuiarement...

White gravy??? 🇬🇧

[@indianajack]

+mr Theodore Gravy that is not brown. Like chicken based gravy.

[@petea2485]

indianajacktrucker not something I've heard of here in 🇬🇧 😁

[@petea2485]

Ours is served brown and usually lumpy for added taste 😁

[@g41thomas]

It is interesting how low tech inadvanced is the American trucking in general compare to European or even Canadians. The guy is wearing no safety wear, oil spill on the ground right there out of the garage, truckers served cheap low quality trash food!!!!😨😨😨😨 etc.... Go to Europe and your jaw will drop how advanced they are. Watching this Reminded me those truck repair video from Pakistan or Bangladesh! And it is sad. The American trucking needs a weakup call!!!!
