Riding Out Severe Storms At The World's Largest Truck Stop

My European truck driver friends refer to you fellows as “cowboys of the highway”. They are in awe of your Kennys and Petes…and Dave Dudley too.

Thanks for your dedication and keep “floating’ thru them gears!”

My Dad was a cross country trucker bringing Maine seafood to the west. Americana was who he drove for, 70’s-80’s, the Julianno Brothers. I was so proud of my Dad. What you guys go through with the weather, crazy drivers etc., don’t know how you do it! Hats off to all of you! 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸

I used to wrap my Golden’s head in a towel and tie the knot. Sounds weird, but it helped shield her ears during lightning and thunderstorms. It became a way for me to tell a severe storm was coming as she would drag bedding, pillows, towels, clothes, anything she could over to me in a pile before a storm. ⛈️ Her doing that made me more than once pull over and sit a storm out, some weren’t too bad, but twice she saved my bum! The next day when I passed trucks turned over, wrecked, or stuck, I began to really appreciate her! 🐶

[@Specz187]

Not too weird, they use "happy hoodies" at dog groomers when they use the blower to help them stay calm. Thats a great way to tell if a storm is coming though. Wish i could take my german shepherd with me on my runs but fedex freight wont allow that in their daycabs lol

Everyone has the same access to NOAA weather forecasts. There is no trucker privilege. Commercial forecasters all get the same data as everyone else does from the government to repackage in their own style, so there's no point in bothering with them. You can listen to any of the 750 NOAA Weather Radio transmitters located all over the country. You can get the same information in more detail on the NOAA web site. Go to a library to use their computers if you don't have one or a smart phone. Few people can say they don't have access.

In a desolate area west of Dalhart I found a closed old gas station where we parked & tried sleeping thru the storm. By morning we found were in 8 inches of water like we were in a lake. Hardest rail I ever experienced. Incredible.

3.5 million truckers in the US and since Covid there were allowances to bring in immigrants to fill the need for drivers. The majority are male, like 90% but still doable for females as I know a couple that drive. Many of them lost their pre diem/expense exemption during DT days but still can be a pretty good career path. Not all are as level headed, healthy seeming as this guy for sure.

[@Connie1Fan]

For me when you can't avoid it you keep rolling, sometimes, I get lucky but one thing is it made me feel good when driving for hours under heavy pouring rain, I got the best frame truck wash, all bugs gone, grill cleaned out, crystal clean windshield, tires clean, just makes my day. The trick is like winning the lottery, get out of that rain quickly and right into dry pavement. avoiding that dirty mist when I could!

[@wrangler870]

My good friend is a semi trucker for many, many years. He and I volunteered to fly to California and move a pastor east to Pennsylvania. We rented a Uhaul that had a 55 mph governor on it. We didn't realize it at the start. We took turns driving but for him it was just total torture. We drove from LA to near Philly at 55 mph. He was getting the screaming memes. But he educated me on what truckers do and how they do it. He introduced me to truck stops. I gained a big respect for truckers on that trip. I laughed out loud at how hesitant he was to drive into those truck stops in our rootin' tootin' Uhaul. Ha, ha. At each stop he would eat a big steak and became so disappointed with me when I had to stop eating steak after the first three nights. Too much food! What fun we had. He ate steak every night for the entire trip. We still have laughs over it as we recall my innocence to the road. He always talked about the big truck stop on I80 in Iowa. Great video and it brought back all those memories to a bit of a greenhorn minor league trucker rookie.

Here's a tribute to truckers. My dad used to haul campers from manufacture to dealers. During the cold season he noticed how some truckers would activate the trailer brake lights briefly while driving down the interstate. One time he got ahold of a trucker on the radio doing this and asked him why. What the trucker told him was a learning experience. The trucker said he does this to activate the brake lights on the trailer so he could see if there was a mist coming on the tires. If he could see a mist the roads were not frozen yet but if he could not see a mist then it's time to slow down as the roads are starting to freeze. I've been using this ever since.

[@matthewcaughey8898]

That’s the reason I’m putting amber fog lights on my pickup when I get it off lease.

you'll also see a white stripe painted from center to outer edge on the tires. It makes it easier to tell if your tires are spinning when you look in your mirrors.
