Slow and steady gets you there alive 😊

[@JuanRempel]

But i want to go fast

[@frederickmoller]

It was 'Highway to Hell' for my cousin, a deadly one!

[@Linda2]

I very much enjoyed going down the Coco thankyou

[@JuanRempel]

Yea, we don't do that often

[@mimi5117]

So wonderful to see the waterfalls doing so well after such a dry winter.

[@JuanRempel]

Yea, need as much rain as we can get

[@mimi5117]

@@JuanRempel now if this horrible wind would just die down ... =)

[@Linda2]

The rock cut looks pretty

[@mimi5117]

Thank you for all your work and instructions for those just starting out driving professionally. =) ... i am here for the Scenery ... lol. Hi Jess hope you are doing good today. I got excited when i heard you had passed your driving test ... my chair was Rocking!!

[@naujsgirl]

Aww, thank you Mimi! It is (still) very exciting to have passed! It was very hard to not get too excited at the drivers office, they say no smiles on the drivers license photo but I am pretty darn sure I am as close to a smirk/smile as you can get in that photo, even the staff members were laughing :)

[@mimi5117]

@@naujsgirl i remember getting mine about 40 odd years ago now, i had to learn on a standard and glad i did. Had to take my test on a standard and passed on the first try. The instructor said i should go into truck driving as my double clucking was so right on along with my gear shifting. He told me that would ever had taught me did well. I smiled ...

[@Linda2]

​@@mimi5117Dad taught me to double clutch. I still do going from 3rd back to 2nd. It makes a much smoother change.

Morning Sir

[@JuanRempel]

Morning

[@Linda2]

Do you remember the video where the creek was coming out of the cave? In Iran, they have creeks coming out of caves.

[@2024home]

Juan, 2 questions: 1.Have you ever gone up (like in a car) a Runaway Road? 2. Would it really stop a truck and load on those things and why? If you feel inclined to the reply this time.

[@JuanRempel]

No to the car, yes to the truck. A lot of runaway lanes are soft gravel and a car would get stuck. Yes, they stop trucks, just last week a truck used one on the connector. Why, well for different reasons. Some, like I said are soft gravel and will get the truck very stuck, some are steep uphill, some are just cables with springs, and as you collected the more and more cables you stop. Each will destroy the truck. Soft gravel will rip the axles clean off the truck, up hill, one must come back down, backwards with no breaks, that truck will jacknife. And wrapping cables around your truck will mangle everything pretty good too.

[@abhirama]

Wonderful video. Stay blessed and safe, Sir. Drove this road twice this summer. Off the charts beautiful.

[@JuanRempel]

It really is

[@Linda2]

See you tomorrow, Juan 👋

[@raistlinvanspronsentravel]

British Columbia is a beautiful province

[@JuanRempel]

It sure is, one of the reasons we moved here

[@ferraritoybox]

at least with your driving skills U R going home at the end of the day, not like some drivers😊

[@Watts378]

Great video man! I do that drive 3-4 per month all year round and absolutely love it during every season.

[@JuanRempel]

I actually find the Coquihalla a bit boring, I'd much rather take the Canyon

[@mimi5117]

very good echo =)

[@Barqs1968]

Licenced since December, class A, Ontario, just finally found a Job that will take a new driver. Start Monday on OTR runs in Canada and the US Mid west. 5 days out resets planned to be at Home. Starting my driving career. YAH!

[@JuanRempel]

Sweet. Yea, keep a nice clean record for a year, and any company will hire you. Company's are desperate for drivers it's just their insurance won't let them hire more than a few new drivers, if any.

[@Linda2]

I wouldn't mine driving up and down the Coquihalla in the Mini would be fun.

[@JuanRempel]

With some nice scenery

[@2024home]

That is the Coquihallelujah Highway - Heaven's Highway - renamed - hello juan and jess

[@JuanRempel]

Oh, I like it 👌

[@2024home]

p.s. I was trying to figure out how much the load of concrete thingies adds up to. In lbs. 100,000? If you care to reply...nice to hear from you - (dave, bellingham wa.)

[@JuanRempel]

I'm confident I talked about the wight in one of these videos. I remember it was heavier then they labeled them, a bit over 90,000 Lbs. Gross I was 124,000Lb on the scale.

[@2024home]

@@JuanRempel Sorry to Ask - bye!

[@Linda2]

You remind me of that there were a couple of ads sneaked in a couple of videos. Last week?

[@stovebolt448]

Good morning Juan, eastern Oregon is going to get hot, 90's time, got to mow the orchard this morning, takes about 3hr's.....sooo got to get going, watch the rest of your video later, BTY what are you hauling? Take care drive safe.

[@JuanRempel]

So I'm not sure, I asked what the concrete slabs were used for, and not even the guys unloading knew.

[@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS]

Hammer down Sutco 😊

[@JuanRempel]

I'm not Sutco, but yes, hammer down

[@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS]

@@JuanRempel I hear sutco? What's the company name Juan.

[@blueman5924]

He drives for Trapline now. 🤙 Trapline bought the flatdeck division from Sutco.

[@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS]

Hammer down Trapline😊​@@blueman5924

[@naujsgirl]

@@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS You will hear Juan do ads for Sutco because they still sponsor/pay Juan to do ads on Mondays for them. They are cousins (if I recall right) with the owner of Trapline, so they don't view it as competitive or whatnot and just want to support what Juan is doing for the industry on KZbin :)

[@ferraritoybox]

I'm surprised that those flats don't have a headache rack on it or on the tractor

[@JuanRempel]

You don't see a lot of headache racks, im happy I have one........ now if only I didn't have a upcoming video where I bend mine.........

[@ferraritoybox]

thx, in nevada best have 1 on the trailer or on the tractor, as a kid I saw a man getting cut out of his cab with a cutting torch cuz the steel rebar went through the cab & him to

[@JuanRempel]

Yea, the headache rack won't stop steel, but it will slow it down and that could be the difference.

[@Linda2]

I'd like to know how the cave came to be that you showed us. Do you know if it's called a name?

[@JuanRempel]

No idea

[@thomas-o2d]

hello juan is it thru dat a super b weight tara 25000 kg

[@JuanRempel]

No, my tare, truck, and trailers, is 20,740kg, that's with chains, straps, and dunnage. I'm sure dry they would be quite a bit lighter.

[@thomas-o2d]

@@JuanRempel tanks juan for the anser😃

[@ferraritoybox]

Juan does your truck have 2 antennas or 1 for the cb

[@JuanRempel]

Yea, one for VHF, one for CB.

[@ferraritoybox]

on the cb if you put a 9 inch metal disk right under the antenna it will radiate 360° so you will hear better & talk better over more distance also with this you won't be directional

[@JuanRempel]

Really, I didn't know that. We don't use CB here in BC, I don't even have my mic attached.

[@ferraritoybox]

ok, U might try doing the same to your other antenna should get same result, the deal is if U don't have a good ground plane the antenna only sees forward & backwards & not that good

[@oldpete3153]

"Hyway thru Hell" what a load of bullshit...I trucked over that road from the day it opened till 2014...as many as 5 round trips a week at times. It would be more appropriate to call it "People from Hell". The road actually get more troublesome after they removed the tolls and the big increase in Nimrods made things worse. There that's my 2 cents worth from a guy that spent 46 years in that business.

[@JuanRempel]

I think most mountain drivers would agree with you

[@matzrat5006]

I'd never trust a auto trans with my life, going down mountains. I want to be the guy that runs in 3 rd gear to the bottom of the mountain, not some auto, that decides it wants to go into 12th. for the fun of it. just my 2 cents .

[@JuanRempel]

Just click the auto into manual and I have full control of what gear I'm in.

[@matzrat5006]

@@JuanRempel I know you trust it. ive seen you go down those hills, i just don't trust them.
