ASMR Crossing Wyoming the day before the snow.

[@ronaldfulton1175]

Try a pair of old socks on those hood bushings instead of grease. Trail King was my favorite for specialized trailers. My last tractor was a T800, wish I had bought KW all thru my years. Had several N14s...bulletproof as possible.Last I drove and dealt with were Peterbilts with ISX Cummins. One pre-DEF, other had it. Pre DEF ran great. DEF tractor always had what Cummins kept calling "chuffing:...it was a poor performer. Finally got allowed to take it to Pittsburgh Power in Saxonburg, PA. They got it to run correctly and took it from a "rating of 600hp" (it wasn't close to that) to dyno proven 650hp at the ground. All that without deleting anything. The DEF had been over dosing and it had always drank the fluid instead of sipping it. The power difference was changing the injector pulse width in the ECM. Loaded was always 128-132,000 gross, Open road was direct or one lower with 18 speed. They had been my go to guys with my last two trucks. Bruce Mallinson and Pete Sharp have a great crew there.

[@frklein1]

Long one, Mitch! Love it, talking about anything and everything. Stay safe on the road, brother! Love following you!

[@roymohr3244]

Enjoyed the ride and appreciated the insight into your life . The discussion of the oi; pump problem let me understand a driver owners mental battle . Thank you Roy

[@Itsit35578]

Hope you had a great thanksgiving Mitch, really appreciate your videos. My dad drove a peterbuilt day cab heavy haul with a 9 axle cozad. Brings back great memories. Thank you for bring us along for the ride.

[@KB-gs8zi]

Hey Mitch !!! With the problems that you were talking about with the "PTO" pump & Hoses ,, wouldn't a Pony Engine on the neck of the trailer be better ?? Know it means another motor to take care of ,but ?? Good videos & Thanks a bunch for doing them !!! As far as trucks go ,, Started driving in ""OTR"" in 1976 ,was an "OL" Mom & Pop mechanic since I was a teenager

[@Cincy6]

Holy crap a complete drivers POV, this is what I’ve been wanting, thank you so much for this. I know it probably took forever to upload so I do appreciate it!

[@bachar-maqqabayisrael]

I enjoyed my visit to Rock springs Wtoming. A lot of heavy haulers and very long coal trains.

[@bruceflaws3213]

I used to hunt whitetails and antelope east out of Lusk, almost to the SODAK border. Lots of both and people were few. Old rancher where we’d hunt still herded cattle with a 1917 open body wood spoke wheeled Buick. He came from Bohemia to the US in 1918 and hadn’t been farther than Lusk since. What a cool guy.

[@byronexley6829]

Thank you for the ride along. However, you sure took the scenic tour of eastern Wyoming. I loved it for sure. My old stomping grounds for sure.

[@donnieduck6713]

Hey man thanks for taking time to get us some great videos keep em coming when you can really enjoy them.

[@kevinm.n.5158]

I'm going to get me a case of beer and come back and watch this. Love these videos, always learn something and feel wiser like when you listen to the old timers shoot the shit. Not saying you're an old timer lol

[@jjbigiron]

Sounds like your coolant leak is in your egr cooler, which in return puts the coolant in the dpf system and can cause sensor issues in that system. Dealt with that exact issue for 2 yrs with Detroit

[@raymondbradley6788]

I would totally agree with everything you say Mitch. Nobody looks up anymore they’ve got their fucking face buried in their phones. I remember a day not too long ago when we used to do business with that all the technical logical bullshit😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@kennygray9013]

My hydraulic pump on the dump truck went out. Previous owner had left it running while driving or ran it empty. It was dark blue inside. The hydraulic shop said it’s to the point cost more to rebuild than to replace. Price was $1200 and had to be ordered. A good heavy equipment dealer I’ve used before got an aftermarket for $600. We’re waiting on it to come in as had to be ordered too. When ya own equipment it’s always something to spend money on.

[@davidraiser6083]

Glade you made it home, great vid thank's for the Ride

[@southernpride9557]

Now that's what I call a Driving video . Holy Toledo . 😀 . Looks like beautiful country . Stay safe Brother . Let's go Brandon !! 🇺🇸

[@Yeti573]

👍,Its funny when you recognize where someone is exactly at in a video. I'm near a neighboring town called Whitewood, which is roughly 8 miles from Spearfish and 20 miles from Belle Fourche, where the video ended. Safe travels there sir!

[@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248]

Thanks for sharing driv'ah. What is the name of the cooker? Appreciate ya oh one other question what's your opinion on Mack trucks?

[@MegaEaglelover]

Sadly now days, it’s like things are manufactured to fail, just so ya have to come back to get it either fixed or replaced.. Btw, thanks for the ride along, very relaxing 😎.. felt like I was drivin my 5ton from when I was in the Army

[@timgiven3826]

Good evening sir, hope you had a great Thanksgiving. Thank you for the driving footage, hope you have a safe trip and travels.

[@bling1634]

Mitch every video you make is Is legendary

[@montedyoung3247]

Does the extra weight you run help with the ice?

[@marknichols603]

I just recently found your channel. Everything your saying sounds like a tape recording of what I say all the time. Definitely think alike. I live in Everett Pa and work in the Bakken oilfield in ND. Your statement about alot of "NO's" is right on the money. I've always thought that I would like to do heavy haul, hauling machinery. That Black T500 Kenworth, that you showed is "Hall Trucking, Oilfield Service. They do alot of rig moves here in ND. I enjoy working out here, just like you said no bullshit. Having a yard here near Watford City or Williston ND is probably a great idea. Alot going on. I feel like I should contact you and have a conversation about being your next driver. Mark

[@davidkreidler7552]

Loved this Vid and hope you do more like it!

[@frklein1]

Amazing how few vehicles even pass in the opposite direction!

[@grantmarut7488]

Thanks for the driving footage

[@haloreaper1000]

I'll be rolling up that way here in a few days heading to Portland. Keep the rubber side down and the cb on

[@mwaofvt]

Bedtime stories with Matt! Love it.......now go haul something! Be Safe big Guy and all the best to you... the bride and the boy! and to your companies hard working Dudes and Dudettes!

[@raymondbradley6788]

That’s a shame it’s that way these days Mitch. He had hell getting that thing finished.

[@TedHartman54L]

Loved this video and the familiar territory. Only problem with a video like this is it shows all those "no's" and brings in all the wannabes. January and February usually takes care of those who think they know what they want.

[@veetwotls]

Cummins make good AG motors for harvester about it. Cummins & going's in garage all the time.

[@kwokka666]

Ay - - - someone may have mentioned,,, but have you looked into the PDI setup, manifold turbo/tuner 👍☠️☠️👍 👍KEEP ON TRUCKINGGOOD 👍 I suppose with your extended warranty (not) its no option ✌️

[@garyfox33]

Beautiful views.

[@jimtygart5320]

Thanks for the ride

[@doublediamondgarage3031]

Im in Wisconsin, and my girlfriend works for Oshkosh Truck, on the floor assembling trucks. The people that company is hiring would make your head spin. These guys dont want to come to work, and when they do come to work, they dont want to work. Some dont understand english. The workforce pool is a sad thing right now, in every trade. People dont want to work but they want top pay. I couldn't imagine where I would be in life right now if even half the jobs available now were available then. Out of high school workin at a patato farm stacking 100 pound burlap sacks of patatos on a skid, for 5 bucks an hour! Who would have thought!

[@thomasdragosr.841]

Don't worry, Brandon is bringing their replacements in from Central America.

[@Cincy6]

I’m in the electrical field and you’re right, bad in every trade. The labor force sucks, you can’t find people committed, shitty attitudes and can’t be there on time. All the old cats in the trade are on the brink of retirement and I’m 31, right in the thick of dealing with ignorance wanting top pay like you stated and can’t make it to work. I can deal with someone committed and not knowing anything has a positive attitude and shows initiative. People want top pay but don’t want to work. Crazy. All these young kids want a desk job dying their hair pink.

[@larrytomb3896]

Mitch I have a friend in the logging business located in Spearfish SD that has a shop 1/4 mile off I 90 that if you get stuck let me know. AKS the Les Bear friend

[@snowpatrol685]

how much does it generally cost to wash your truck ?

[@davebailey7119]

Mr. Taylor, What do you think about Biden raising trucking rates? Seems like a bad time to raise rates. Dave ( Canuck )

[@flyboy6876]

Sometimes I wonder what maps permit people to look at; I have been on some crazy roads that are supposedly meant for wide long loads, I guess if you don't mind dragging your booster in the ditch on curves it's okay. Cows, you never had the joy of coming round a blind corner stacked so you can run at night and find three black cows standing in the middle of the road

[@whitevanman8703]

24:10 Can you put an air suspension steer axle on a heavy haul truck?

[@alanfennig9584]

How fast, what speeds are you able to run

[@zackstahl7574]

Nobody’s business how you loaded it , as long as you got it there with no problem!! That’s all that matters!!

[@whitevanman8703]

Wyoming looks very brown, is it really like that or a filter on the camera?

[@ivanetherton8514]

Mitch : on your hood squeaking John Deere has graphite spray found out that it drys quick last a long time won’t wash off

[@koldsteele]

Led Zepilin or Whitie Morgan and the 78s put the music to it ....God bless you Mitch.....FJB

[@larrytomb3896]

Are your trailers 96 or 102 wide.

[@steveblanco4123]

Cheers for posting your instagram man, been searching for Frontier. All the best

[@scottdominguez7939]

Have you ever thought of trying a Glider ( Pete) with a 6NZ ? Like your videos stay safe brother.

[@jasontengan1233]

Those things are like training wheels, you don't need them!

[@davidanddiana7173]

Yes sir cool video 👍

[@whitevanman8703]

1:02 It's not just you, even Canadian truckers don't like going to British Columbia and Quebec. I suppose the solution is to charge enough money to make it worth your while.

[@montedyoung3247]

It’s only in decent if they can appreciate it, 10 four!

[@KG_BM]

3 WHOLE HOURS OF DRIVING. HOLY SHIT. im gonna have this on replay tomorrow

[@archangel729]

Do you ever see you go to westernstar and a Detroit motor ... ty for saying you wont go automatic transmission lol Quebec is like that to everyone lol sorry to hear you won't be coming to Canada should have tried Alberta lol 35 ° time to pull over and put the winter bra on the truck lol

[@geesss8675]

You probably want to purchase some tyre chains. . . jmho Don't buy that cattle guard the day after one walks out and you can't swerve or stop

[@timatwell3728]

Take and put either pantyhose or tube socks on your hood pins that will stop the hood squeaking tube socks last longer . sorry you've had the break downs but glad your making good money on the short hauls but stay safe watch out for wildlife and keep the video's coming

[@tapertim]

I wish we could go back to the 3406 b days

[@KeepingitAnalog]

Me too!

[@montedyoung3247]

I guess pilots are on ELD’s to!

[@robertbrown9128]

Do you need a driver??

[@grantmarut7488]

Little tunes on would have been big plus on this journey

[@thomasdragosr.841]

You are right about American workers. Too many distractions, many are too lazy. They want a paycheck but have no pride in what they do. Part of this is that some employers don't care about their employees. Maybe we need to import some of those Volvo or Scania COE's just to stir the pot and make Paccar and some of the others compete. Getting rid of all of this environmental crap would also help reliability.

[@robpeters5204]

Getting rid of all this environmental crap. Are you stupid or just dumb? You see why the people in China wear masks outdoors before Covid? It’s because of all the pollution in the air and people can’t breath normally. Is that what you want?!?

[@scottreed5460]

Best ASMR video there is. Next time title it as such and watch how many views you get, you’ll be shocked..!!

[@michaelwhitaker1151]

Hey call Pittsburgh power they will get your engine straight

[@frklein1]

Delta airlines suck. One day, I’ll tell you a story you won’t believe about ‘em. I’ll just tell you now; we get to the airport in Chattanooga, TN to catch a flight back to Norfolk, connecting in ATL. It is 0640, flight is 0705, not a soul in the airport, not a soul. I had been there for less than 2 days for my sister’s funeral. I let an older couple go ahead, me being kind. I get to the counter, I have 2 bags and my walker to check. We’re flying 1st class. The girl (who later says she’s the supervisor), says, ‘oh, you’re on the 0705 to ATL?’ I said, yes, ma’am. She said, ‘you missed the baggage cutoff to make it on the flight!’ Now, NO ONE is in the airport, no where! I missed the baggage cutoff by 2 MINUTES, she said. Do you believe that SHIT? No one to take 2 bags and a walker to the plane when no one is even there! She says, ‘I can get you out at noon, but it won’t be first class.’ I ask to see a supervisor, and am informed she’s the supervisor………….so, we sit and drink alcohol for 5 hours. A little risky-dink airport, no one even there, no one cares anymore, and she couldn’t get two more bags and my walker on the plane. I’m just done with Delta. We had paid for first class both ways, and even the connection from ATL to Norfolk wasn’t first class!

[@KeepingitAnalog]

I agree bud. I am not a fan of Delta.

[@grantmarut7488]

We got all this Black Gold gas prices through the Roof it's B.S.

[@grantmarut7488]

Need another truck on out there

[@hughgautier3894]

Awe, are you sure Mitch? After all, I'm just a young 76 now and what you are saying is longer may or might not be totally true. I can go to the toilet for #2 and have #1 come out all the while I'm doing the other. That is a blessing in disguise. Here's the rest of that story, I'm on a toilet every 5 to 6 hours and that includes at night. Now have you tried a Big Green Egg? It's totally ceramic 3/4 thick in the bowl (bottom) and cover (top), uses lump coal for its fuel so you don't get the taste of lighter fluid that's embedded in your charcoal briquettes. Also, it will let you cook a pizza, or bake, smoke, and grill. It is what I cook my 21# turkey in, and the bird is done in less time than it would be done in the oven. The last one was cooked at 475 degrees for 2.5 hours and the meat was falling off of the bones. I had it up on a beer butt, but no beer was in it, it had Mint Julip Whiskey in it and what you got was the hint of mint throughout the bird.

[@frklein1]

[@willctheroysolved6408]

So I sped up the playback speed and started counting opposing traffic..23 vehicles,10 semis,the rest 4 wheelers and such on the first segment which after taking your time from the first junction to your next GPS said nine miles, averaged your speed and miles to which the miles you drove in that segment from the start is the same as the vehicle count.......God I love B.F.E., USA,, and if anybodyho is bored. Such as I, decides to double check me, and comes up with something totally different, yes it is possible I miss counted cars, and I do really suck at math, so don't be an asshole if anybody replies with a different answer, my dad already made me well aware I am a dumb fuck ok..........keep the greasy side to the road , and keep eyesballin the load, we clear ......
