As a veteran I really appreciate seeing folks, yourself included, taking a few minutes to visit the memorials, giving/showing respect for veterans. Maybe 20 or so years ago I visited the National D-Day Memorial located near Bradford, Virginia. I was visiting family in the area. Quite the trip we enjoyed today, thankee. Take care and be well.

"As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly." I've seen a Sinclair Dino fly. With that accident you had, you're entitled to mention aches and pains. The next trip to Nebraska will not be the same. All I can picture is that tornado crossing I-80. Continued prayers for everyone affected. Thank you for the great ride. Please stay safe, and God bless.

Had to back into that dock off the street a few times. I just give 3 or 4 blast on the air horn and they usually remember i'm there and let me out. Came down south on US 59 on Sat. Saw some of the damage and a whole lot of neighbors helping each other out. That was nice to see. Prayers to those affected.

It travels back and forth from Ludington Michigan to Manitowoc Wisconsin Cross lake Michigan. Bikers do it all the time I've even taken my truck, prime paid for it. Just watched to mention this next time you want to travel Iron Mountain

I agree about the skirts. It’s just another useless piece of equipment that does nothing but cost the trucking industry money. Just because California says it does something and you can’t go there without them. Just like the DEF systems is a useless government mandate that costs trucking a bunch of money and doesn’t do anything but hurt the trucks they’re on.
@Lost_AtSea_16 күн бұрын
About the only purpose they serve that I’ve noticed is, they keep water from spraying of the side and blasting cars during heavy rain. Which could be a pretty good safety feature for cars being able to see as they pass you. Some guys say it helps fuel economy but I’ve never noticed a difference myself.

Hello my friend. As you may remember, my son, wife and their son live in Bennington, NE. They are in NE Omaha. 1/4 mile from Elkhorn where the Tornado went through. They were okay, however many of their neighbors were not. We are praying for all, along with donations to the Red Cross. I hope and pray that you and your family are safe. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Nebraska and Iowa. We count our blessings, of which you and your family are one. Please take care and stay safe. Ed. Long Island, NY.

Brother it ain't the age, it's the miles Wide turns: Back in the late 80s Mom and dad had a delivery of doors in downtown Denver in the morning, since I had the day off I had spent the night with them. Dad was in the second lane over turn signals on make a right turn and people kept going between him and the curb. Finally I had to get out with a six cell Mag light Stand at the back of the trailer and threaten to bash in the guys hood so dad could get around the corner. We won't talk about how much fun it was getting 7 foot tall solid core office doors off with out a dock! Wind: We were on our way to Seattle 53 footer wind hitting dad's side I could look in the mirror and the top corner of the trailer ! Hope you and the family made it through the tornados unharmed

Kurt, I normally watch your content on a TV so in order to leave a comment I need to log in on my computer. I'm older than UberDad and have no connection to trucking at all. I'm retired Navy. Just find your videos entertaining. Couple of questions: -last two videos showed a towel/rag wrapped around the revolver cylinder shift knob. Why? -don't recall you mentioning what repairs you made to your CB unit that you've yet to reinstall. Trust everyone is fine and escaped the weekend tornado outbreak.

Try talking to a car hauler about fuel mileage. I found the 2 best ways to get fuel mileage was to stay home or lie. I pulled a short haul dedicated run for 1-1/2 years.
