In driving school @ Washington-Holmes County Votech in Chipley, Florida 47 years ago, my instructor passed along some wisdom that stuck with me for the 30+ accident-free years I ran OTR (solo & team). - He said; "The day you park your rig & say that you didn't learn anything... is the day you should leave it parked & seek another occupation" - Some days driving was like playing Checkers & other days were more like playing Chess. - ALWAYS planning ahead... way WAY ahead, expecting & anticipating the unexpected. - Learned & followed the "Smith Driving System" early-on. Have a safe one... Steve / W5BIB

I’ve always been curious to know how truckers felt about me using the truck fuel lane. It’s a life saver when I’m pulling my 5th wheel or dump trailer to not have to find a spot to fit on a regular island. I also have a fuel card that saves me a bunch of money (sometimes close to a dollar a gallon) over using the regular pumps. I always follow the rules of fueling quickly and moving up if I have to run into the store. I sincerely don’t want to hold up people that are working for a living.

0:00-0:17 The facial expression reminds me of the video when you and Diesel Dave in the cab over, 2 doors open and extreme heat from Death Valley to Cerro Gordo. You both had that look. 01:01 being you are very experienced in cattle hauling that most of the time trying to get some shut eye with a loaded trailer, and neither you nor Rob are the cause of the rocking motion I can see not getting good rest. 09:20 I glad I don't HAVE to use social media; You Tube is Social enough for me. 10:28 I'm sure you and other truckers passing through were glad it was before the event, the traffic, the drunks on their bikes, we're glad you didn't have that to deal with that expletive. 13:52 was way worse in Death Valley, this shot was still hot enough. 15:27 Trucker's see things 24/7 that most of us never will. You all have some stories to tell.16:19 enough for a "breaker 19 yodel" were you practicing? LMAO it was entertaining, thank you for the chuckle. 16:50 that was a crop dusting plane when they leave their airport, they have 1500 pounds of Pesticide, those pilots fly sunup to sundown. Lara Farms on YT did a video on those nasty fliers. You both did a fine job and thank you for taking us on your 2 part journey.

From San Antone to Yucaipa CA 1286mi 22 hours one shot. Jumped into a convoy from Tucson to CA state line kept me wide awake too. Then last week ran from Branson to Tucumcari(690), the next day home through flagstaff and Blythe (900). Would that remotely qualify me for hauling bulls in the monfort lane?!
