Snowed in the truck stop. Can’t be as bad as snowed in on the side of the road. Thanks for watching enjoy

[@dkwoodsy2082]

Just seeing this now. I was a driver for almost 30 years. I was lucky- only out OTR for about 2 years, and that was back in the early 90s. We didn’t have all the cool stuff you guys got now- and I ran alot of Wisconsin and Northern IL over those 2 winters- so I remember how nasty it can be. I was lucky enough to land a “local” job and that’s where I was for 25 years. I’m retired now and have to say- I don’t miss it one bit. Thanks for being out there and keeping it rolling- rain shine or snow. Take care and stay safe out there sir.

Can you manage my business if you have many years in the industry at minimum ide love to pick your brain for some knowledge sir -Blake USMC vet

[@dkwoodsy2082]

@@blakeellis6954 I appreciate the offer but as I said, I only did 2 yrs OTR and that was back in the early mid 90s. Things were WAY different then. And I wasn’t running a business. I was driving for an O/O who owned 3 trucks. The majority of my experience was in a “local” job with an LTL carrier. I was just a driver and freight handler. A peon. Nothing to do with the “business” aspects, although it was a good career and allowed me to retire early. I just wouldn’t be much help to you. I do respect that you’re taking the business seriously and wish you the best to be out there keeping the Country functioning. Mostly- be safe out there. Also I respect that you’re USMC-Ret. Thank you for your service sir.

[@billcoleman7316]

As important as all you truckers are, you are so under appreciated for all your efforts in making it possible for use to get the things we need and want.. Thank you for your service.

[@gmarte12]

oh please, its not like he is doing it for free. he is paid a pretty penny for doing that. you should thank teachers and some social workers.... now they are doing community service and molding the future for a pittance

There're few things better than having a nice, cozy parking spot when a storm is coming in. I love to burrow in and watch it through my windshield with a cup of coffee in hand and the heater blowing. Good times.

[@michaelbruce6190]

I got stuck at the Love's truck stop in Cheyenne, Wyoming last year for 3 days because of a massive blizzard/snowstorm, it was crazy how cold it got and how much it snowed. Luckily for me, my APU worked like a charm and I had plenty of food.

[@wifighostcruiser9665]

That's just a dusting of snow. It's Sunday, it's the weekend, get a plastic bucket and a plastic bag, ( keep it outside ) get some goodies and a lot lizard and enjoy your weekend.

Thank you to all truckers for bringing our supplies to the stores

It’s great you tube vids allow those of us who appreciate your job! There has been no way to write and thank you all! Stay safe, and thanks a million for your driving to keep us all supplied with the things we need, you’re amazing ♥️♥️♥️♥️👍🏻✨

When I was Truckin', there were times I PRAYED to find a Truck Stop in a Snow Storm, at least until I saw Snowplows!!

[@dkwoodsy2082]

Some of the best sleep I’ve ever had was in a truck sleeper out on the road during a snowstorm or thunderstorm. Got fuel in the tanks for heat, some food and drinks in the fridge, and you know you can’t move anyway. Just kick off the boots, strip off the jeans, and crawl into the bunk under the covers. Pretty sweet.

[@Paul-zm1hb]

I was a trucker - eventually hated it. I never had a very nice truck, but my company put me up in motels and hotel. I went back to college and became a technologist

Man, I went tru the same thing last winter in Ohio and West Virgina so be safe on them roads bro watch out for crazy Drivers.

[@AnthonyBlackbeard]

That’s the biggest part watching out for the other drivers

[@matthewjohnson3910]

Safe travels

[@jeffbeaird747]

Crank the heater and stay warm

[@alangee79010]

Well Rams beat NO yesterday and I thought NO had it and Rams pulled out a magic trick 3 pointer. Do you keep ice melt on your truck? Good for in front of your tires as to keep traction on your way out. Safe travels in this frigid cold.

[@marygriffith4600]

Some people are idiots when it come to tractor trailers. Stay safe.

I drove I71 during this snow.

1984 Ohio. Brand new kenworth stuck at 46 truck stop. Heater takes a shit. Ice on windows etc I had to drive it to Hubbard about 15 min away. Held my head out the window so I could see. Good old days or not. Lol

[@abathens]

I like that Falcons hat my man!

[@jimmasters7878]

Always always before you park your truck rocking back and forth a few times that way your tires won't melt down into the snow and be stuck in the morning and all-time trucker told me that

[@dinasyoyos6384]

Stay safe and if possible keep some food snacks and beverages with you in the truck

ÓTIMO VIDEO. 🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@bernielanderos2933]

Gotta luv that automatic

[@AnthonyBlackbeard]

Sometimes right

[@tod3msn]

Drove for decades. Nothing more nerve wracking than snowy icy weather. Many drivers do not take it seriously and start sliding around. Lot of amateurs on the road in bad weather. Got to watch them. Nerve wracking. Had good fortune driving in those conditions but it freaked me out.

I have been taking a piece of chalk and Marking on my tires at 12 o'clock move up about a foot or 2 and get out and Look at all my tires and if that mark moved My wheels are good

[@ChrisTian-lf2oh]

Do you have the engine running all night, when its this cold? Or do you have diesel parking heaters to keep the cabin warm, like in Europe? Keep trucking and stay safe!

[@johnwilson721]

get you some thick white chalk to draw a line from the center to the outside of your tire rubber. that will make it easier to see that the tire is rotating. i do both sides directly across from the other. then you wont look like that Prime truck dragging wheels. that O/O getting ready to pay some bucks.

[@AnthonyBlackbeard]

I’ve heard of that. Getting close to snow time maybe I should get me some chalk and put in the truck

[@thirteen2714]

Look at videos of Russian truckers tricks. They shove empty plastic bottles over one or two lug nuts on each tire, so they can see if their wheels are all turning from their driver's seat. All the bottles sticking out should be moving when the truck is moving.

[@rayb.hopkins9709]

Looks like somebody took out your hood mirror. That's why you never set the brakes on the trailer, when is that cold.

[@AnthonyBlackbeard]

Yea swift just about took out my hood a while back. All good now. When swift finally paid up

[@xisotopex]

so you had to stop on a snowy incline for some pedestrian traffic, and had to back down the incline in order to make it back up?

[@Tom_Lynx_98626]

I got news for you .... What you posted here was not snow... it was at most, a flurry. I got stranded at The Windmill Truckstop near Rapid City back in 85. It snowed so hard that it filled the spaces between the trucks (where you were walking 14:15) all the way to the top of the vans. You could walk on top of the vans from one end of the line to the other. I-90 was shut down for almost a week & the restaurant started running out of food. Now THAT was snow...

[@AnthonyBlackbeard]

Your true. I’ve been in some snow but nothing major where it’s super dangerous to drive in or u can’t even get out of a parking lot

Hello. I'm interested in company otr trucking. However, I'm eager to ask, what exactly has trucking done for your life?

[@psmh4]

Do you leave your truck running all night? Can you plug in for electric?

[@louisskulnik7390]

Except the toilet situation, this looks like it might be a little fun. As long as it is for only a few days, tops.

[@happycook6737]

I'd be making an emergency in-truck toilet plan because would be awful to fall on the ice and break a bone!

Who locks their trailer tires in the winter .if you do they you are a Rookie. Never lock them if you do they will freeze

[@setdaviking2849]

Hey Anthony what is life like being a trucker?

[@scottanderson7239]

I don't live in the German belt anymore so snow & ice or black ice no longer my problem

[@moderngod1]

Not a trucker but local delivery driver. As a owner operator would you charge more during winter times if transporting across multiple climates? Like oranges in Florida to Chicago which out here has reached -30° wind chills . Thanks for sharing.

[@AnthonyBlackbeard]

Try to charge more but some of these brokers hold to their numbers and makes it even harder for us drivers out here

[@moderngod1]
