Nebraska Ruined Our Fun // Trucking In Circles

[@richardsilva3915]

😂😂😂😂Opie cracked me up when he saw that pie

[@donnadickey5420]

The man who owns that place is the most amazing man. He helped me out one time after I had hit a cone ant did a bit of damage to my truck. He had been out in the parking area cleaning up trash and garbage behind the nasty drivers. I truly did appreciate his assistance. When i get the opportunity I will stop again.

[@wadericker4795]

And 1 more trucking story..about backing into your parking spot. I got backed into one time down in Georgia or Alabama I can't remember which. I had a 48 foot aluminum flatbed hooked up on me. This guy in a van trailer hit my trailer about halfway back and he was at such a slight angle, he actually slid my empty trailer sideways about 2 foot. I was asleep when it happened. I bailed out of bed and honked them train horns got dressed and jumped out. He was profusely apologizing for hitting my truck. He finally said that he couldn't see anything in his mirrors. I looked at him and said Dude if you can't see anything you stop get out and look!!! He didn't do much damage it just kinda skinned my rub rails. I told him not to worry about it. The next time I got home I took my angle grinder and smoothed it all back up. Almost looked good as new. If I would have been loaded there might have been more damage.

[@tonybevilacqua2266]

That's OK Nebraska ruines everyone's fun

[@Truthhunter]

That's some high quality truck stop food. Great video

[@thewcrobinson]

As a resident of the roundabout capitol of America, this video was entertaining. 😂

[@heatherkohlwey8379]

I was laughing so hard at the roundabouts. I can hear my friend Ellis from heaven right now laying the griping on thick. I miss that guy. I love the small towns. I spotted a few Christmas bell from the 1950's. I miss the days when every window would be decked out and the lights came on in grand style the day AFTER Thanksgiving. Thanks for another awesome ride. Safe travels, and God bless.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

They are definitely frustrating

[@GrabinGears]

Not giving him some pie made me feel a certain way 😡😁

[@dashhoundlover2837]

KURT GREAT VIDEO IM AMAZED YOU PAYED $8.00 FOR THAT $4.00 SANDWICH BUT THIS IS THE B TIMES WE LIVE IN !! GREAT RIDE THO !! BE BLESSED STAY SAFE 🐾🐾🐾❤️🐾🐾🐾🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@denniscunningham7021]

Hang in there Schmidt!!!

[@travisstoneking4049]

Hey Kurt saw on the news the gentleman who went missing off highway twenty still hasn’t been found thoughts and prayers to his family.

[@kirksummers4808]

I was just up there Friday night. I knew they were building a bypass. It has been in the making for about 5 years. I just stayed at Sapp Brothers Friday night and showered there. Mel’s dinner right next door is a great place to eat.

[@terrywatson9128]

My wife would've been going ballistic. She despises round a bouts for whatever reason.

[@PaulStortroen]

Kurt, i see you love your Round Abouts. LOL....

[@markjanssens5484]

I spent 2 days in Lincoln NE once picking up a load of pork. Never went back to that place, lol.

[@wadericker4795]

At that very truck stop where you bought the coconut cream pie. Years and years ago I was driving a T800 Kenworth with a B model cat . It was really cold out that night and about 7:00 in the morning that CAT jelled up and died on me. It was 3 or 4 that afternoon before they had it running again. I had filled them 150 gallon tanks with Oklahoma fuel and I did put a jug of Howes in each tank. And it still jelled up on me. To this day I will not buy Howes.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

And those Mechanical engines were never huge fans of winter with that crappy fuel return

[@waynekarjala2032]

Howes is mostly colored diesel.

[@karlsborgwi.jewell9919]

3406 b return very little fuel to the tank compared with a Cummins of that era…. ‘Twas driver error ‘😮

[@tabithasalb9903]

Opie looked not so excited about the sandwich.

[@keenansells3827]

My god that’s a lot of those lovely roundabouts

[@ChiefWiggim]

We pay more for a brisket sandwich in northern Maine. $10-12 but thats also fresh smoked from the BBQ places. I do love my brisket and smoke one once a month. Man if you ever made it to northern Maine I'd feed you like a king!! 😆 Keep up the great videos and stay safe!!

[@michealpencoff4744]

Finding really good BBQ in an area you may not be familiar with has been a roll of the dice. Pedialyte, as well as Pepto-Bismol and a handy supply of necessary paperwork is always a good idea.

[@jimgraves6464]

You added lots of time to your delivery from concorida. 😂nebraska my old turf.

[@bentabor9410]

Getting close to 50k!! Uber Dad must be excited. It would be a great Christmas gift for Schmidt Family Trucking to reach 50k subscribers.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

It is getting up there

[@1208bug]

Thanks for the ride Kurt🙂

[@thetravelingmonkey889]

Lmao you know you have been trucking along time when you can tell where someone is on their intro scene. Ive been through that town many times as i was heading north

[@mikebeezley8522]

Yeah they were working on the Fremont bypass when I went back there in June. That little dinner next to the sapp brothers in Fremont is awesome food. I missed seeing old 77 of you driving

[@rogersawyer9265]

That would be Mel's Diner.they do have real good food.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Agreed on dinner

[@CrampedGrampy]

Backing a trailer was easy for me when I was driving big rigs in the 1970s era. I've always thought, if a driver trusted what's in the mirrors, he be good. There is never any uncertainty when we get out and check for what's not visible, no shame either. Thanks for a very pleasent, peaceful even, ride. Stay well.

[@toddvaughan3709]

When you need to make a u-turn those round abouts are a blessing

[@jeffmcgrath2202]

There is an engineer somewhere in the mid west who went to the UK with his family and fell in love with roundabouts. The rest of us are suffering because of his fetish!

[@philipmichel215]

Omg Kurt, I swear Opie’s face and mine were in sync looking at that pie! Yum!!

[@ritchieaskew6706]

Watch roll Beatrice Ne live there watch you all time keep up the good work trucking hard money not as was your at truck stop. Lagoon right

[@tabithasalb9903]

Keep on trucking.

[@scottmonroe5426]

In Nebraska speak, the town is pronounced Bee-at-triss. 😊

[@lonnien.clifton1113]

That is what it takes , patience my man good work.

[@rogersawyer9265]

You know,I live in Fremont and haven't been on those roundabouts yet.

[@thewatchmen4920]

Almost time for the Christmas lights set up. If you're able and it's safe enough SCHIMDT. B SAFE .🐕‍🦺 🚛💨💨💨

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

They are up as I type this

[@robertestes196]

More of that beef brisquite sandwitch would have made the furry fart box explode

[@zeke502]

Thank Transportation Secretary Pete for the round a bouts. He was our former mayor (South Bend, IN) He started round a bouts here.

[@jackson_68]

Most roundabouts were planned or in place before Secretary Pete. He did not snap his fingers and they magically appeared. But...whatever fits your narrative.

[@BK-wg9mz]

Good ole N. E. Nebraska, highway 77 is has changed so many times between Lincoln and Dakota City since I lived there. The bright orange water tower is where I called home. Now stuck in Indiana and their roundabouts SUCK

[@joshuacurley417]

I know how you feel about the early darkness. The sun is starting to set around 3:30pm up here, and it's dark by 4:00pm. Winter has arrived 😢

[@philipmilks6793]

Man i dont know how you do it , backing those big trailers in like that , good job .

[@richardpeterson9697]

They put the belt way in to keep truck traffic at a low on broad street plus chicken plant came in

[@SouthrenShrek]

Good backing job Kurt no matter what thay think if you can get in with space your golden... Nice job Driver,,

[@musicman4782]

You can still go through Fremont, just go one exit past the bypass in that first roundabout. I go through there every week. They built the bypass from us275 to the roundabout by the Platte River first. All they had to do was build the connection to the roundabout from 77. It only took a couple months.

[@sandyg9228]

I wondered if you ever ran 77 into Dakota City when you pulled those Dodge City loads rather than through Omaha and up I-29. You are right about beware of deer on 75. I think the worst section is between Blair and Omaha. Dead deer and broken car parts litter that section of road.

[@jackson_68]

US-75 is "Deer City" from Omaha up to Winnebago. Several times I have had near misses in daytime between Decatur and Winnebago.

[@caroleriedner4233]

Badibadibadobida! Yup time to call it a day Kurt. Howdy from Tucson!!!

[@SG-ze9no]

I thought you did a great job backing up 👍 You know that pie makes you sleepy ( it always does that to me, lol 😂). Poor Opie the star ⭐️ has only brown dusty grass, but he probably likes that better than rain, ☔️ snow ❄️ ect..😂🦮 great video, thank you for the invite to watch 👍😊😁🦮🐕‍🦺🐕‍🦺🥶

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

He's not a fan of it, but it's way better then rain and snow in his eyes

[@tyew9092]

According to a website. Nebraska has 229 roundabouts. Florida was the winner with 1467. We'll let them win that one.

[@JaydensNotMyKid-os5yh]

I prefer loves truck stops over most others as far as consistent quality of services and staff, TA is typically pretty rough but i have found some that are decent but they are mainly near hige cities with huge budgets.

[@stevespriggs3302]

Kurt it's a win, every time I back end and nothing happens its a win. If I need to pull up 10 to 25 times its good. Stay safe and warm

[@tate8020]

That place you stopped at. Has a really good sausage egg and cheese sandwich. Some of the better food on 81 in my opinion

[@bigunone]

Talking about deer, I was heading home from Eastern NM going West on US 60 and counted 6 dead ones on the side of the road and one smeared across it. In all my years of traveling that strech I don't every remember even seeing one. keep the shiny side up

[@632will1]

the first roundabout you should of turned left instead of right it would of taking you though fremont i travel that road once a week and yes there are deer everywhere.

[@thomasczyz1279]

Opie,,,what what you got pie where’s mine 😂😂😂😂😂😎🇺🇸

[@mike18421]

New subscriber checking in! Be safe out there driver!

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Thanks for the sub

[@ronnieterry4916]

How long had the sandwich been on the shelf? Sounds like the sandwich had been made a few days. They should have given you a discount discount.

[@wildbill109]

Thanks 4 the ride stay safe Kurt!

[@scottycollins1829]

Gr8 Vid & SAFE TRAVELS

[@Lima-D-Trucker]

Great video as always , safe travels god bless

[@Binesikwe]

Worried about deer? Get a set of deer whistles on the rig! Trucker approved. As long as they are put on correctly and not plugged up with anything, they will work.

[@stevenrobinson2381]

No pie for puppers !

[@butler203]

The roundabouts saved you from stopping at a traffic signal or stop sign.. Also reduces severity of accidents. Examples rear in collisions and people running red light or stop sign collisions, which are often times fatalities. 😊

[@toddclapper7196]

I grew up in Fremont, went back to visit, even with dad’s directions I got turned around

[@francisremillard9482]

Hit a deer once before cell phones. Radioed off iffice for police. 4 hunters showed up asking for the carcus. They arrived before the cops...

[@ericmyers8005]

The brisket sandwich at the Grand Canyon is 20 with fries and drink.

[@keepupwithspeedy]

tung tied and twisted, just an earth bound misfit.. lol

[@Papa-vq3fv]

Thank the Amish for the roundabout they invented it many have no electricity there great like putting a man in a round room and telling him to pee in the corner! Good wishes Schmidt

[@waynehammerton5698]

I hope you and Opie didn't get too dizzy with all those roundabouts Kurt you and Opie take good care of yourselves won't you buddy

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Lol , we were sure spinning Wayne.

[@waynehammerton5698]

That I can well believe Kurt

[@psg6314]

Great video and keep up the good work God bless from GA and happy holidays stay safe

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Thanks, you too!

[@eddiepacheco7885]

I hate roundabouts with a passion 😂😂

[@randallbyrd2458]

Opie loves it.thank you for sharing

[@michellejaquez8809]

Thanks for a other awesome video keep up the great work. 👍

[@stevenrobinson2381]

"BEE-atrice". That's the way I was told it was pronounced.........

[@expo1403]

I’m from Lincoln and have family in the area you were at. Those roundabouts have been there for a few years and half of them are really unnecessary

[@sandyg9228]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Opie give you such an evil eye as he did when you didn’t share that brisket with him. He was not a happy German!

[@darrentaylor4760]

Opie is gonna hurt you later with that brisket 😅

[@raymondbradley6788]

Opie wants some pie😂😂😂

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

I dint share pie

[@stacyfernandes2860]

Hi dad, since I couldn’t have me be brisket, I deserve a cheeseburger dad

[@mikebronkala9818]

Hey Kurt,good video. I do have one question, I'm sure you might have previously spoke on it, but not sure. Is it more profitable to go back to hauling grain or to continue doing what you are doing now? I apologize if you answered this before, but just wondering about the difference. Thanks again to you for the videos and, of course, Opie.

[@scottlambert2949]

drive safe out there and see you next time and tell Opie I said hi

[@dwainyoung542]

How in the world can anyone back into such a narrow place !!!!!

[@guybuddyman838]

Just a tip: when backing into a spot (late night especially) be sure to sound your highway horn. It lets weary drivers know to watch out. Safety first. ❤

[@donnadickey5420]

And dang if you don't awaken every sleeping dog in the yard... 😂 🐕🦮🐕‍🦺🐩🐻

[@JillMcCormick-dg6gu]

Yabadabadoo! I was still having fun:)

[@skippyjones4195]

Hey Kurt 💪🏻👍🙏🏻❤️✌️

[@amsoiladam]

If you want a good beef brisket sandwich stop by a Bucees

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

I don't think they let trucks in thier parking lots do they?

[@amsoiladam]

@@truckingwithschmidt7120 no, but in many cases, there’s side road you can pull off onto and then walk in

[@richardeckert6130]

That by pass has been there a long time but the round abouts are new how did you even get on the by pass if you were coming up 77 from Lincoln

[@karljacobson1575]

Ya I heard Casey’s bought out 4 kids fuel. Cva was the fuel supplier. Ya they cook their food. Some better than other!!!! Wish I could catch you there I live close to that!!! Maybe someday!!

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Ya I just found that out on my last stop.

[@karljacobson1575]

i filled my semis up there at harvest. probly won’t if it’s Casey’s. have an account at CVA!

[@TheSylvesterruelas]

Hey Mr.Kurt is that camera next to your head used as your dash cam. That’s a good idea if it is. I use a garmin dash cam on my windshield , I’ve never thought of putting it higher and further back. Be safe out there.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

No

[@theloythomas]

Opie is going to stink to high heavens release it you fartbox release it 😅😅and i hope its a sticky lingering one

[@robertstory7971]

hey it looks like opie is limping

[@s.a.stewart2743]

Still hoping my beloved Green Bay Packers ruin your night.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

It's looking rough

[@elliottdilliplane6244]

Your truck has a nice steering wheel

[@henrymooy7400]

Was opie limping ?

[@richardnewman5981]

Kurt, I was curious, do you or Opie ever get sick from eating some of that gas station gourmet? You guys must have "iron" stomachs.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

It's a trucker stomach I think. But we definitely need to change things up before it's to late.

[@Dennis-ef3jj]

They have been working on the bypass for several years

[@huskerboy3471]

❤

[@victorbellan8357]

Do you have deer whistles on your KW ? Nice day & trip !

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Ni I haven't

[@EDLaw-wo5it]

I hate roundabouts. Pulling my camper in Arizona and I was already tired, looking for a place to park and hit roundabouts every mile for 13 miles. Never use that road again. You and Opie havagudun.

[@johnhawkins4257]

i'm still hungry and i don't know why,,excuse me while i eat some pie................
