Tanya your fun to watch and listen to.Keven is lucky to have you with him

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

Awwwww! Thank you!!! Appreciate your kind words!

[@Kalamabbfan]

You know, they could make it long enough you could back the entire rig in!😍

[@gailjohnson6670]

Hauled many rolls of paper all over the country that were blocked in. Should be a better method for securing them as it's very unsafe the way it's done. Some places didn't have squeeze machines. With some loads had to get in trailer and knock blocking out and get to heck out of the way to let rolls forward. Accident getting ready to happen. Luckily never got hurt. Hoping to never to make a sudden stop or have bad roads. Lots of paper work with trucking that most people don't realize. Kevin is very calm and stays focus. Safe travels. Thank you for the video. Blessings to you.

Reminds me of Chicago Beverage off of Cicero…back in dark building on tiny street with tractor in middle of street! DO NOT leave doors unlocked and get out of town ASAP (dont even think of sleeping there)!

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

👍👍👍

[@stevennovakovich2525]

Love Kevin's even-keeled attitude to everything. Patience is a very great virtue in trucking. I wish he an Tanya all the best and stay safe!

[@johnlambert7053]

Work for Shaffer reefer side more money

[@rrh2918]

I admire that kind of attitude also because I don't have it.

[@dotcompliancegroup2196]

Great work Kevin!!

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

Thank you!!!

[@Jeff250lbc]

Goal all you want it’s free.

[@denisryle6410]

Turn on your trailer marker lights. I had my share of dark docks . So we’re like backing into a cave . The challenge is fun and develops your backing up skills

[@rrh2918]

You know its been cold when 35*feels good.

[@rickyhawkins7407]

Backing into a building or dark spot. I like using the small orange traffic collapsible cones. A couple kept stored under the bunk come in handy.

[@christrella3134]

It's tougher when there's no overhead lighting and once you're inside the building and block out the light, you're going off the light from the 4way flashers.

For the dang rattle fold up a piece of paper towel and stick it in there. It will help. I had a similar rattle in my Freightliner it stopped it. Just a thought. Keep the videos coming

[@louispaparella5766]

or a piece of carpet tape

I got to meet Kevin today in Tifton ga 2-23-24 at the pilot exit 60. Kevin is awesome. What did you settle on subway or steak in shake. I live 30 miles away in moultrie ga. Next time I’ll take you to the Golden Corral in Tifton. Thanks Kevin. Be safe going home. PS. Saw you go to the blue beacon. Nothing beats a good truck wash.

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

Kevin loved meeting you too! Subway was the choice. Though we’ve really enjoyed Golden Corral in the past. 🤩 Kevin really loves a freshly washed truck! Blue Beacon always gives great service. So it was a good opportunity. Thanks for introducing yourself! 😃Stay safe!!

[@gregorydent6613]

Appreciate it. I’m glad to be home for my 3.5 days. Been out west in Cali Utah Nevada. And so forth. Feels good to be back in GA for a second.

[@williewillis9136]

Hey Kevin I start with Crete on the 4 th of march using your driver code

[@88KeysIdaho]

Wow- 4 screens!?!? Too many!

[@michaeldavenport5034]

Always enjoy Kevin's paper stories. Very educational.

[@CliffClaven22]

Remember Gina when you said “ why do you need such a big bottle of glue”? Coyotes, put up your trail cameras to keep an eye on those critters. They romp though my retirement community here is Arizona, seeking rabbits( which are abundant). But in a pack I have heard of them attacking humans, keep your defense weapon close, especially when cubs are present!

[@richardeckert6130]

You forgot to eat your candy, That was a lot of paper setting around be safe.🎉❤

[@donrotenberry6571]

Real good backing in the dark . Kevin is the best. Hope you get you a fresh hot cup of coffee. Be Safe & Stay Warm.

[@geraldjones8032]

Another job well done. Enjoy your video very much. Kevin does an excellent and safely. Have a safe trip.

[@sharonthetrucker2297]

There's a westrock in Richmond Virginia like that. I didn't have a problem backing in it was just seeing lol because it was so dark inside

[@Jeff250lbc]

Nice. I was just talking to my son about backing into a building..

[@Jeff250lbc]

15:52 new load and not even done with this one.. nice.

[@ChapzinoTheDon]

Never go to Leonard's Express for a load in DE. I promise you.

[@timmcdermottgetgf2250]

Hi Kevin and Tanja

[@DarrylSpicer]

use your 4 way to see

[@janandersson9657]

Cant you don have a coffe maker in your truck ?

[@ricklewis9564]

If Tonya is from Deutschland and Kevin is Canadaian…how did you two meet?

[@peterbu2817]

How many miles do you have on Rambling Rose now?

[@88KeysIdaho]

What is the constant "ding dong" noise I hear. Kind of like a doorbell. ??

[@RexPayne-zg2gq]

How often do drivers there have to go to a sleep lab?

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

Kevin was tested for sleep apnea before he switched to trucking. During his three years driving he has never been to the sleep lab. So we think it probably depends on the individual driver and their health or health history.

[@Jeff250lbc]

Onterio Kevin is from Canadia?

[@ashantajarawayoung2421]

Hey guys I got a question I’m thinking about switching over to dry van from reefer do you guys do much early morning appointments like 0300 or overnight driving at Crete because I’m thinking about going over there from my company just don’t wanna do the early morning appointments or overnight anymore Crete seems like a great company and reefer is stressful and not rewarding please let me know thanks

[@diamantinoleite2065]

God

[@Robert-ds3qh]

Kevin are you boycotting New York?

[@stevennovakovich2525]

Maybe they are giving him easier places to go these days. Good for him!

[@paparay2747]

I hope so.

[@jeffreym755]

I bet he luvs NY

[@RedRedred-ld4pb]

I will send over a 4 year old school kid to back it up for you, and the kid is not on youtube.
