A train and chef Dan cooking dinner. Perfect way to start a day.

[@HighOctane-wo6cm]

Wow , that was a big jump in your timeline ! You were heading for Phoenix and then 3 seconds later you were in Arlington Tx . Great editing job Dan 😂

[@brucelowe5116]

Have you decided not to try a drop deck ,or is it still in the pipeline????

[@hughcox1375]

When it’s hot salad and chicken are a perfect combination 👍👍🇨🇦

[@sipzter357]

Here first for a change! You are one of the hardest working people I've seen. Take care and safe travels.

[@DymondzTrucking1962]

A light high protein.Supper is always better than a heavy carbohydrates supper. I Eat a lot of salads. Stay safe out there brother.I'll see you on the next one.

[@keithbronson9777]

The breading on the chicken and the creamy salad dressing negates any benefit from the salad.

[@gilehaskins727]

Love the trailer CAM when you are positioning for a load!! Those pipes are awesome.

[@billm5433]

Mr Dan, the heat really saps our energy! Thanks for taking us along with you! 🫡🙏🏼

[@Koda-k8v]

Hi Dan Always enjoy the ride along with you and Bailey. Drive safe. From Tim in NS Canada.

[@brentzeller4269]

I always e.joy when you share the legistics of trucking. I also learn something when you show how you secure your loads and why? Thanks for sharing ❤

[@mcconnelljim]

Hey Dan, missed you in Arlington, bummer, just down the street. Sir, be encouraged, yes your are a great trucker, but you also are a gifted teacher, teaching us about family, budgeting, planning, life, taking care of our pets, taking care of customers, oh, and trucking. Thank you, this regular viewer is praying for you!!

[@Bigjonnyz]

Always enjoy your videos sir. You have a awesome sounding truck.

[@joanhenderson5114]

Working hard as usual. Take care of yourself & Bailey. Safe travels. Stay strong.

[@markwagstaff4464]

Dan thanks for your kind words. The surgery was good

[@simpsonsj]

2:25 'There's your train for the day.'

[@frozenbits48]

I thought the same thing. Then I wondered why Dan didn't say it. Remember when Dan rode a skateboard?

[@bluefj-wc3vz]

No "there's your train for the day" 😒🤣

[@jaybrooks2502]

You went under train of today 😂 . Love watching your work sir!

[@kevinhenry7273]

You got us our train of the day.

[@jamessimms415]

Safe Travels. Love ❤❤❤ Miss Bailey❤❤❤. Give her a hug, smooches, & scratches behind each ear. I eat protein 3-4x a week & w/a big salad. I usually go through 5-6 tomatoes a week. Likely won’t be able to comment for three weeks after next Wednesday. Having my left knee replaced (after my right one this past April ‘24). Hospital & rehab facility wi-fi won’t allow comments over their system, so it’ll be mid August before being able to comment again.

[@SamuelManaole]

I know all about the heat as i live in fabulous Las Vegas. Great to eat protein & veggies when its summer helps a lot to keep the weight down as we all know. Love your videos Dan hi Bailey 🤟 safe travels 🙏

[@franciscosandiego3026]

Stay safe brother from the imperial county California 👍🇺🇲

[@dhblan8591]

Bailey wants what Dan is having ;-) Thanks, Dan. Stay safe and cool.

[@ourv9603]

I LOVE going into the November rainy season w brand new tires. !

[@paulhohmann2363]

Easy dinner dude !! Awesome safe travels

[@kens.3729]

Bailey is Saying, “piece of Chicken Strip, Please”. 😬👍

[@mauricezurliene1892]

I was at the I-80 truck show last week, and talked to some of your fellow employees and they had alot of good things to say abut you, keep up the great work and do more videos.

[@timmygtruckingstories1687]

Dan if you have never ran 67 up to Poplar Bluff Missouri from Little Rock you should try it sometime. Soooo much better road and less traffic. I’m sure you have but I know it’s definitely a personal preference for me.

[@davidcarroll8735]

Good Morning from London, which would be the only way I’d be so early on viewing the YT 😉. Have a great night!

[@charlesterviel5748]

I have the same egg cooker.. going to try it out also.. good idea on making up and having them later..🙏😊

[@petermarshall7005]

Another great video Dan WHEN it comes to feeding to feed your pets feed them first because if you decide to have yours first THEY will make sure you don't enjoy your dinner. Just ask my 3 cats . What's become of the train of the day ?

[@anthonylopez-hr6dw]

Super good video Dan, I have to go an buy Salad mix Exactly like your. I like the way u keep ur cool, not like other video just finished watching Using F word an bitching. Well all have ours up an down. Only person hurting is ur self. Stress an High BP. Take care.

[@bigunone]

That was a hot weekend! Talking about tires, nephew was passing a set of doubles on his way from Tx to Oklahoma he was about an hour from where he had to drop as he was passing he smelled bad tire, he thought it was the doubles, but he backed off and pulled off the off ramp to check his tires they all looked and sounded good, so he went on in, after he had dropped his trailer and was getting ready to hook up he saw that the driver's side steer was looking low. He opened up the hood and looked down and there was a flap of rubber hanging off the side. Of course they were worn enough that he had to buy two!

[@kens.3729]

You Never want to Replace just one (1) Steer tire, Ever. 👍

[@ericlindhorst1320]

I like salad with my deep fried chicken, mashed potatoes and cream gravy with biscuits. Love your videos Dan!!

[@seagullsbtn]

7000 miles from you watching in England.

[@chuckh5031]

Keep driving or feed Bailey ? Of course Bailey first. 😁 Hitting Evensville keep a look out for Kurt Schmidt. Truck safe.

[@flyinhawaiian57]

I feel bad for you, I live not that far from Arlington. Some potholes around there that could swallow even your big sleeper cab and some crazy drivers.

[@johnberry1107]

Yes, salad does work. Just depends on what you expect it to do. That's my idea of a good meal. This old man got minor-sick and started a streak of losing 56#. Found 15# of it and stay right around there for a few years now. These old bones and joints appreciate the effort. Stretchy-stretchy-stretchy first thing out of bed. Stay safe! Thank you for these stories. This time of year, I put as much watermelon, honey dew and 'lopes in my diet as my system will stand. Extra sweet and easy to substitute for greens. Looking forward to eating too many apples soon. I've worked warehouses and pity most drivers.

[@tonymeek7932]

Hey Dan hope you and Bailey are doing good. Just wondering if you are still getting a new trailer? Be safe out there!

[@thewatchmen4920]

Safe Travels Daniel 🇺🇲 🚛💨💨💨💨💨

[@KB-gs8zi]

Hey Dan !!! What's the update on the ""NEW"" Stepdeck ?? Thanks for the ride & have a good week !!! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@robgregory8067]

Hi Dan,,love your driving Channel,, I'm a 57yr old builder,,our bodies are like batteries,,takes longer to recharge,,I you are true gentleman,,wish I could shake your hand and buy you a beer..take care.👍

[@rolfsinkgraven]

Great video Dan, and those unnecessary waiting times are bad.

[@tintruck2885]

We love Bailey !!!! You’re ok

[@raylamz9868]

Thanks dan, stay safe. Keep up the good work 👍

[@rogerlarsen4539]

Some of us are just happy with what we are doing, no ambition needed :D Glad you're taking care of yourself. Drive safe!

[@joeferreira7382]

looking good DAN, little bailey thinking no dad I don't want that food I want what you eating 😂😂 be safe take care yourself DAN

[@ricbrowne3249]

Looking good Dan you and bailey stay safe cheers "RB" downunder

[@michaelraine4665]

Hi Dan, that looks like a perfect dish,I'm sure a brisk walk would probably help keep you fit and healthy also. Stay safe, mate. Cheers Michael

[@ourv9603]

The worst part of every workweek is those first 5 days. !

[@paulw3714]

Good looking super, my wife grills up chicken and then I add to those same salads you have, tastes great and fills me up! Happy trails, stay safe!

[@user-br9bq9vu2d]

Super what.?

[@danamartin9734]

Good video Dan your much appreciated 😊😊😊

[@darylthisdelle7702]

Dan Dan the professional flat deck. Over a life time of eating the wrong things and at the wrong time I started a few years ago to change things. Boy what a difference it made. A lot of stuff I don’t eat anymore. Plus certain things I only eat at certain times. My body has different requirements at different times of the day and I eat accordingly. So eating a huge meal at super time is not the way to go. Hope your getting a good rate on the ltl. I like how you crossed chained those big I beams in the front. Do it right and it won’t come back and haunt you. Another fine video Dan. Have a great and a safe day, happy trails to you,D…

[@tsmooth2730]

i graduated trucking school today this really helped

[@jvjoe4376]

Good stuff, Dan. Keepem coming. Thanks for posting. Peace...!

[@cindykelly7845]

This heat is all over the country and it,s nasty. That salad looked delish, good on a hot day. Take care and safe travels.

[@magigooter2096]

The constant heat has been sapping me good. I feel ya.

[@henryjarrell7863]

Everyone gets the blues you can’t help the way the world is today be keep your head up it may not help you but it’s makes day go better when I watch your videos

[@geraldlessard7446]

Travel safe, Dan!!!

[@hammers1518]

Was waiting for "there's your train shot for the day". lol

[@joetallon4968]

I think Bailey is more interested in your chicken!

[@SamuelManaole]

Hahaha yep I noticed that too😉

[@user-uq7sv1oj3q]

You two be safe out there on the highway 👍

[@alistaircarr3683]

I have my own chain puller as well Dan. It’s called my hand.

[@hammers1518]

I thought you had an old 5th wheel pull stick you used to get the chains through.

[@smokingjoe9864]

The endless black ribbon.

[@johnnance648]

Dan Dan The Salad Man!!! Great stuff, been eating them at least once a day for past 2 years, Lost lots of lbs. Just watch out for some dressings, they are sneaky slipping in sweeteners. Great to see you working on those extra lbs. Time for some sidewalk surfing again? Thanks for taking us along and sharing time for us.

[@mikerooney7928]

#2 I made an edge protector out of 3/4” plastic pipe. Doubles as a chain pusher thru the hole, was 8’

[@MrDlc1969]

Lookin Good Driver that big sleeper has really paid for itself it's well worth it. Stay safe Best wishes from Canada near the Niagara Falls 👌☮🍁

[@bigpaddy8363]

Keep it working Pal 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@janeweldon8874]

Good healthy dinner! I have done the same thing. Have a good evening.

[@ronjessie8194]

Thanks for the video,

[@johncoaker4952]

Chef Dan. Keep up the good habits.

[@gregorydayton5428]

Dan, dinner looked good! You eat better than me.

[@edbutton9445]

Dan, I've been watching your videos for several years, great job! Does Mercer forbid you to haul partial loads? With trucking revenue down, the most important aspect in profitability is revenue per mile. Utilizing every foot of deck space is crucial. If Mercer won't help you, can you use brokers for partials? Good way to pay for new tires. Keep filming, stay safe!

[@jasonmacmaster1100]

I ran a set of Samsons, I had decent luck with them

[@donniehodge2548]

Another good one Dan 🚛🇺🇲👏

[@carlthor91]

Safe travels.

[@scottycollins1829]

Gr8 Vid Mr Dan

[@tima7763]

Thanks good video!

[@corsnel594]

It's always nice to watch your VLOGs. Thank you DAN I myself will rather chicken or fish before I eat red meat. And I will give anything for a nice steak- very tasty

[@edkulk2777]

Why not DoubleCoin tires on the truck? Seem to be pleased with them on the trailer enough to buy them over and over.

[@jamiegriffin5611]

Dan, you forgot to say there is your train for the day.

[@irvenrathburn9421]

Good video Dan eating healthy is hard when I drove truck, I got thin becouse I didn't eat good.

[@Warped65er]

Thx for the vid.

[@johngreydanus2033]

Those beams are scary, pretty sure some countries require a headache rack on the trailer for safety. Hate to see them pushed right through that huge sleeper cab!

[@ericsanford5639]

i can't believe you didn't have your own tool to pull the chains through the coils, for as long as you've been flatbeddin.

[@joepoppenhagen5694]

Hi Dan!

[@dennismckown4951]

would of saved me from buying a lot of city maps if i'd had a gadget like the one giving you directions to shipper and reciever.

[@toddstepan7712]

What company makes Samsun tires? Never heard of them. They looked pretty meaty.

[@mikerooney7928]

Heat does zap ya tho….but have a question, do you X-chain those beams for forward movement?

[@davidmcknlght2700]

👍

[@jerrycoggin9434]

I cannot imagine Super Dan with the blahs and low ambition/energy. Next time you visit your physician for a check up mention thyroid. I started taking a med for low thyroid a few years ago and made a big difference on my energy level but Im still not near as industrious as you usually are.

[@larrysierens1029]

Any updates on the stepdeck trailer?

[@darrellborland119]

Dan...you are the perfect guy to adopt a low carb, meat based diet...Kevin Rutherford is a fella' you would like to listen to.. The standard American diet will affect your health....Kevin can be found online and his show is broadcast live Wed.'s...from a former Driver. Thanks.

[@markstalter8360]

Hey Dan, do you still use Trucker Path? I remember them sponsoring you at one point.

[@billsmith8739]

When are you getting your new trailer?

[@richbrannon5562]

I thought you were getting a new trailer, or did I miss understand the video awhile back when you were making a wish list for Dorsey.

[@markpontes4457]

Yes, he is suppose to get a new Step deck from Dorsey to show for them but it is not his trailer just to Demo for them. I'm sure if he wants to buy it after they will probable give him a he'll of a deal!

[@richbrannon5562]

@@markpontes4457 Thank you for the info

[@casey6518]

Hey Dan, when's your new trailer gonna be ready or did you decide not to get a step deck trailer? I was thinking at the truck show you said it would take a month or so to have it built to your specs. Seems odd to buy new trailer tires unless you selling your trailer to another Mercer driver like when you sold your old rusted steel trailer.

[@davidbreman2494]

Hello Dan hey like to ask you had mentioned that Dorsey trailer Co. Was going to get you a step deck trailer did that deal fall through or did you decide to stay with your Dorsey flatbed trailer. Guess you been staying busy that's a good thing.

[@darrelljones6842]

Are you still getting your drop deck

[@jimmysainz4671]

Where's the new trailer. When are you getting the stepdeck

[@markpontes4457]

How many miles do you usually get out of your drives and trailer tires?

[@eaglybeagly]

Mate what mileage do y'all get out of a set of steer tyres on you're roads?On a pacar product .
