Love your music choices. Goes well with the countryside and your laidback style. I run into Lindsay drivers around Toowoomba and Dalby doing BigW drops - all pretty chill and calm guys. I only do local parcel and pallet drops in rigids so great to see the rest of the country.

Thanks, Ken. I'm always on the lookout for your next video knowing it will be as good as, or better than, the previous one. Whatever you do, please don't change the way you present your videos. Your natural approach is why you have so many viewers, 'likes' and positive comments. Great stuff! 👌

Good day Ken, Taking that first exit from the Western Dead Ring Rd you took the wrong lane for a B Double. Grab the right hand lane next time & straddle the left as well. Typical transport yard a hose without a nozzle or high pressure attachment. Good to see something never change. Lindsay Brother's have some hard core subbies in Melbourne with loud big bangers. Great video Cheers Louis 👍 🙂

Hi Ken. Yeah, the change from portrait to landscape mode transformed your videos. Footage is great, music is great, and the fact that you are doing it all with just a mobile phone is amazing; I can't think of anything to suggest that could improve them. PS: I see one of your blokes ran into a bit of trouble on Sherwood Rd when leaving the markets the other day. A lesson learned no doubt.

I take my hat off to you for driving all those kilometres. We live in a 24t. tag axle motorhome and just do maybe 100-300km a day and take in the scenery. Once I had to drive one of our operational support units from Brisbane to Townsville which was boring enough. I remember in the '80s and '90s when Lindsay Bros were THE "Upside down Transport" company. They seem to have improved. Having a good driver like yourself would be a bonus. Cheers and stay safe out there.

I have been thinking about putting a few videos up myself (other than the stuff already there) and have actually recorded and edited some but gee I have a terrible head, scared to put it up on the tube.
