These are the loads that put hair on your chest.

[@justindeming3553]

My first load out of state ( not old enough yet) I worked locally then had to drive all night down to Sacramento,arrived at 5 am rush hour. Never been on a road bigger than 2 lane freeway. You learn fast or wither. Did 36 hours straight once. I never used dope and all the guys I ran with did. Pretty tough keeping up with a bunch of speed freaks. Praise God I made it through those years. I do miss hauling cows in big power trucks.

[@michaelg1036]

My hat goes off to all you guys! I’ve been in some tough docks. And traffic is getting worse. God bless to all!

Love your videos. Had to give up trucking due to M.S. diagnosis years ago. But I still love trucks and you give me a chance to live vicariously through your videos.

Part 2 coming? I could sit in my chair for the full hour. 08:04 cute bull horn/hood handle, your voice changes a little, do I see a wire retainer on the upper teeth? Dental issues used to make me talk differently. Got to keep them pearly whites looking good for the You Tube videos.26:08 feels like a roller coaster. Well, I don't know we didn't get to see that part. I remember Whitehall in the old Windows XP, Microsoft Train Simulator. Computer train goes slow up those mountain passes and just like driving a truck slow going downhill. 10 times the weight driving a train, and even in a game they don't stop very easy. I'm enjoying listening to your Jake, that new engine sounds really good. Thanks, Jax for taking us along.

[@realwildwildwest]

Yessir had braces when I was a boy . Still wear that retainer :)

I pulled into a ranch to get two bulls with my 20 year old second gen dodge. The straw hat wearing ranch that’s about 70 years old 6’8’’ 100 pounds was walking out of the barn. I opened my door and my Aussie gets out and I get out with my shorts and flip flops. He looked me up and down and says you got the right pickup,you got the right trailer, you got the right dog but you sure as fuck don’t look like any cowboy I’ve ever seen.

[@timwelsh1119]

Haaaa!!

[@annagarner1280]

LoL, my response would have been- don't need to be a cowboy to haul your cattle...😅

[@travisstoneking4049]

My father used to do two rounds a week from Fairfield,Pa to western Kansas then down to Texas to pick up fat cattle and take them to Wyalusing,Pa. And would go around every scale along the way because he was always over lol. ✌🏼❤️

I've done these kind of runs in the southern countries of Africa. Gobabis in Namibia to Dundee in South Africa with weaners for example. 1350mi or 2160km. But take into account, it's 3d world Africa. Not the developed US of A. Typical single lane country back roads. Wild animals day and night. Oblivious African motorists. Almost non-existing convenience stores. Speed limit of 50mph or 80km/h, which we obviously had to ignore, but that puts you on a constant alert for traffic officials. No time to fuel once you're loaded, need to carry enough juice for the whole run. And to top it all, a border post to cross between Namibia and South Africa with lazy and unhelpful personel. And last but not least weighing a total gross of 124000lbs on two trailers. We typically did such a run in 26hrs from closing doors to last hoof off, no sleep.

[@awesomecreationschannel]

Hey man, another great episode 😊👍 I still just can't fathom how big the states are compared to the UK, we don't often get to see so much sky! Just after Lookout pass around 28min into the episode, it looked like your steering was pulling to the right? Is that a tracking issue or was it just the road camber? Great to see Rob on the road! 👍

Trucking live sock long distances over thousands of miles is not for everybody here in Ontario Canada. We bring a lot of feed cattle or out of Western Canada, especially Saskatchewan Manitoba Alberta over the years exporting dairy cattle out of Ontario here reviews two different trucking companies here there’s only a handful drivers that you see month after month Year after year but keep trucking livestock over long distances. Why say is look after your health and don’t want to take breaks when you need to take breaks feed water and brakes are not a bad thing for the cattle and a good thing for the driver. it’s not worth driving tired or having to take Substances to stay awake, I know of drivers that have ruined their health and their relationships
