Greetings from a retired Danish fellow Trucker I was Delivering goods all over Europe for two decades. From the polar circle to Turkey, from Denmark to the UK and to Spain, even once to Morocco . I follow your channel because like your professionalism, and i love your wifes voice and positive attitude.🙂👍

😂 Nice touch of the horn beep with the elbow. When my son lived in Southern California, San Diego area, they had to give 4 forecasts. Ocean, Inland, Desert and Mountain. And the temperatures differed greatly at times. Some only being an hour away. In June it called the June Gloom because it takes awhile for the Marine Layer to burn off.

😳😳😳Wow!!!! How fascinating!!!

I enjoy buying the 1 pound bag of almonds from Wally that takes about 1900 gallons of water to produce. All for about $6 retail.

I grew up in LA we get a marine layer which burns off before noon that's why it's cool but it will warm up

For x amount of feet above sea level, the temp. drop by a given # of deg.

[@CSXOhioRailFanPlus752]

Did you see any Birds of Paradise in California

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

The plant? I don’t recall. They usually like more humidity. - I just looked it up. Google says YES! They grow in California. 😆

[@CSXOhioRailFanPlus752]

You went through my hometown of Calimesa. Welcome to Southern California! I'm not a trucker but I've always loved big rigs and I enjoy watching your KZbin Channel. You have a really good Channel.

[@efil4kizum]

Have fun going to that East st Louis drop yard lmao

[@Karl-Bohemian-Nomad]

I have heard picking up at a railway yard is not the best. 🙂

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

[@marqueswilsonn]

What’s the reason for the two trucker gps’s and the truckerpath on the phone? Three units

[@derekfenderson4722]

So.. do you prefer the freightliner or kw??

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

Definitely the KW. 😁

[@Matts_Presentations]

I'm curious, do Crete drivers throw chains in the winter months or do they tell drivers to park it if chains are required?

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

They want you to stay safe. Trip plan to avoid those type of situations. Shut it down if the weather is bad. Kevin has not had to use chains.

[@Matts_Presentations]

@@TheJoyofTrucking Great, thanks. 👍

[@knudriis8367]

which state should I choose where it is easiest to get my truck driver's license. you can start by driving at an alndman and in that connection get your driving licence. Is there a state in the USA where a man can have his Danish driver's license converted into an American driver's license.

[@peterbu2817]

How many miles do you have on your truck now?

[@TheJoyofTrucking]

About 170,000.

[@efil4kizum]

Probably not a real legit automatic

[@gregmonhollen4327]

Why would you crank the dolly legs all the way to the ground like that makes it hard for somebody to pick up when it’s loaded they didn’t train you like that

[@stevenwilson9678]

Getting fat there buddy😂
