"SOMETIMES IT BE LIKE THAT" | Trucking Life Vlog

In this episode, we hit the road with Alice as she embarks on a journey from Idaho to Kansas. Along the way, she's faced with unexpected challenges when I-80 shuts down, forcing her to join hundreds of other stranded truckers in Laramie for the night.
The next morning, as the roads reopen, Alice opts for an old, familiar route to continue her journey. After successfully delivering her load in Kansas, she heads to Illinois to pick up a dry van load bound for Wausau, Wisconsin.
But the adventure doesn't stop there-Alice encounters a tricky unloading situation at her final destination before handing the truck over to Martin , who's gearing up for his own run this week.

What you did for that driver was awsome. Thats old shcool.. 👍👍👍💃💃💯💯🧨🧨

[@ChristineChaya]

Hey Alice! If there were more truckers like you willing to take time out of your day to help another trucker in need, then this world would be a better place 😊take care and be safe

[@celeditomorales7824]

That’s the way it was back in the days helping one another. 💙💙💙💙💙💙👍👍👍💙👍

[@userunknown-bf6oo]

Alice, you do a fantastic job of editing your videos. I love everything about them. Thanks for all you do. 🥰

[@waynemeyer1682]

Alice, I like the map with the little truck wiggling showing where you are going.

[@victoriasteppe2865]

Happy, Happy Birthday Alice!!!!

[@danwhitford3425]

Happy Belated Birthday, Alice!!!

[@kentr2424]

What Alice did is how it USED to be out on the highways - truckers would help each other out all the time. Now, not so much. It's kind of depressing 😥 Happy birthday, Alice!! 29 again!!😁😁 Love the Def Leppard t-shirt!!!👍

[@towncoupe]

Alice !! You really are an ANGEL OF THE HIGHWAY. How many people nowadays in this CRAZY WORLD would actually do that. You go Girl Happy Birthday to you aswell Cheers from Calgary

[@moondog3162]

Nah, a super trucker has the fast food drive thru headset😂😂

[@Overtime-Trucking]

Wyoming is so crazy, it can be sunny 60 degrees in utah while i80 Wyoming is closed with 4ft of snow. Safe travels

[@mugetsuu23]

[@llen609]

FSC Steve must be watching your Vlogs. And Schmidts Vlogs. His product is getting better. Don’t ever stop showing your truck wiggling down your highway. You make an old man giggle

[@waynemeyer1682]

Happy Birthday Alice.

[@Truckergregg]

Happy Birthday Driver Alice. I did notice that there was no intro, that’s appreciated. Safe travels to all my fellow truckers.

[@TruckingTogether]

trippin, there was an intro. I just watched it again to check lol thank you for the birthday wishes.

[@JohnHallgren]

@@TruckingTogether yup, at 0:52 to 1:06, as typical for your channel.

[@tinakerr2300]

Happy Belated Birthday!! Great Video!

[@jaisonhall8183]

Reminds me of trucking with my father when I was young drivers helping drivers. Just helping wanting nothing in return miss the old days

[@terryperrott9913]

Happy Birthday Alice Unfortunately there's a lot of steering wheel holders, that's why there's so many wrecks

[@darylthisdelle7702]

Nice to see you helping out a stranded driver. Ahhh winter is upon us. Your looking good Alice. Plus a belated happy birthday. Boy there are so many trucks on the road and places fill up so fast now. Drivers are parking where ever. Glad to see you were able to take cover and wait out the storm. Another great video guys, thanks for posting. Have a great and a safe day. Happy trails to you,D…

[@JodyHall-g3f]

Drivers helping drivers doesn't happen much anymore.Good job thank you

Hi Alice. Nice shot of the loco's on the head end. Cheers. Rog

[@kencornett4768]

Happy birthday Alice this is Ken down in groveland Florida always wanted to wish you a happy birthday I always watch yours and Martin's it's a shame Martin sold his KW W-9 that was one beautiful truck all right you have a happy birthday

[@paulgood5298]

Happy belated Birthday Alice. Maybe this will help when you have a dock to back into like the last one where you unloaded. Look up at the edge of the roof top and line your trailer up parallel to the roof line, you can see it in the video, try it, I had to back up to buildings like that and it works. Thanks for all you & Martin do. See ya on the next one.👍

[@FulSpd1969]

WOW Alice!! I run trains on those tracks there behind your drop off in Kansas City, Ks. You and Schmidt running around here.

[@dennisdoty523]

Alice you are the best !!!!!

[@georgenietzsche2264]

Happy 25th birthday 🚛💨🎈💨🎂💨

[@ozcavalier]

Happy (Belated) Birthday Alice!!! 😜😜

[@bigrigger5617]

Happy Birthday to you. Gotta lv winter, wind and Wyoming. Joy Joy

[@michaelrocker9000]

Happy 29th Birthday Alice. It had to suck being out on the road for it but you're looking as awesome as ever. You also have a good heart turning around to give that driver a can of starter fluid. I hope he got his truck started. Yeah that last pickup was kind of shitty that they made you go to a door where the tractor was parked in the middle of the street. BTW I-80 and 90 in NY State and PA were also closed down for miles There were major pile ups as well. Just glad you're safe. Love you guys and "Save the Manuals".

[@edwardwilliams9874]

Good chilly afternoon

[@mikeharris3148]

It was very nice for you to go out of your way to help that driver

[@DaleWells-d6q]

Prince agree usually goes to cedar rapids and the food grade comes in from illinois

[@byronmoon8351]

Happy birthday sweetheart. Be careful

[@garyleibitzke4166]

I recognize some of the route you drove, especially coming down the hill into Tremonton on I-84.

[@WilliamJones-ru9xd]

Happy Birthday Alice, And I wish you good health and happy Holiday Season, for you and your family. Say hello to Martin for me.

[@StevesVideoExperience]

Happy Birthday! Love seeing that part of the country. Thanks for another entertaining video.

[@douglaspeterson7602]

I'm anxious to see how this 3 trucks and 2 trailers is going to work.

[@byronmoon8351]

Wow. Right on the button. 80000 lbs

[@ronnieterry4916]

Interesting video with the road closing. But all the more reason to have a backup plan and always have food in the truck when unexpected turn of events occur. Happy birthday and safe travels wherever that may be.

[@Owensbailey1]

Happy birthday Alice sorry you got stuck in that mess

[@DonnieMcD]

Keep up the good work. Sorry wyoming was a pain, at least you made a plan for a different route. Always cheering you'll on from wyoming.

[@shawnmackinnon5122]

Happy birthday young lady

Happy Belated Birthday 🎂🎉🎊

[@bigblacksheep]

G'day Alice I wish you a very happy Birthday and I know you'll have many many more . Alice you prove to others how level headed you are by thinking ahead. Both you & Martin are brilliant operators. In my mind you put a lot of male driver's to shame. You would have to be one most level headed truck drivers I've watched on you tube 22:09

[@samdillsaver7676]

I saw you going west on 80 near Sinclair, Wyoming this afternoon 😎 new trailer looks great with your truck!

[@TruckingTogether]

thank you!!!

[@southwestiowacattlefeeding6720]

Happy birthday Alice

[@arrowkart4j]

Happy Birthday. Finally an old school driver trick helping a fellow driver ❤. Back in 1979 when I started it was common, but not likely anymore because everyone is all about me attitude. Hopefully your birthday was good. 🙏👍🇺🇸✌️

[@mugetsuu23]

We got stuck in the same road closuring that day it looks like lol 😅 had to stop in rock springs so was a bit behind ya I guess.

[@kentuitts6523]

Happy birthday alice

[@MrDlc1969]

Lol the train Horn was a little more than those kids where expecting ! The best trip is made by little things that Driver will never forget you bringing Cosby sauce to him nor will those children 👍👍💐💐☮☮🍁🍁

[@truckingwithcliff]

Happy belated birthday, stay safe running out west I know you're very capable it's the carpet riders with their feet on the dash that worries me.

[@DaleWells-d6q]

We pick up at prince agra products and deliver to kohl grocery warehouse down the road

HAPPY LATE DAY OF BIRTH ALICE.

[@leeshaver7825]

Happy Belated Birthday Alice, Sheriff's department is here that's always good Me, not when they're there for you 😆

[@ricklennox44]

Shippers and receivers present drivers with the most ridiculous situations sometimes. I mean how does that even make sense to put a truck in a dock that leaves the street completely blocked, just ridiculous.

[@danielloveall2952]

Happy Birthday 🎉

[@tomb4429]

Happy Birthday!

[@jackclack1857]
