Did you like avocados when you were a kid? In this film we haul 43,000 lbs of them out of Mexico on a trucking trip going to Florida. Maybe you will like them a little bit more when you see all it takes just to buy an avocado from your local grocer.

When I drove a Volvo I really liked it. Was a real smooth shifting truck, and I thought the interior was laid out really good. I shift is the way to go now days I think. Better fuel economy which means more $ in the O/O pocket. Lord knows we all need more of that. Enjoyed the video. Thanks. Be safe.

As a subscriber, I've got a RU-vid-notification 12 minutes ago. But I've watched "Avocado" on Sunday (in Germany) 😁 - RU-vid seems to be late, but I try my best to minimize time-lags. One of my very YT-channel-favorites.

You sir, are the master of backing up, very impressed. I've tried watching other trucking vlogs but keep coming back to yours because of the family friendly content, explanation of what you do and your laid back demeanour. ending with the kids was awesome. keep them coming.

To answer your question about which one I think is better Arbys or Wendys, I think neither is great, I want the old Mom and Pop Truck Stop food back, the ones where they made the homemade good food. So tired of all these fast food places in the stops now !!!.

Old Swede sounds quieter in the cab like she's better insulated from road noise and her interior has no squeaking, even on bumpy roads. The tiny fridge and table in the back, plus a little coffee maker are all nice upgrade perks. Nothing against Old Red though. I was just at a birthday party last weekend where my friend had grilled a whole bunch of boxed pre-made burgers. Not all of them were consumed. I asked her what she was going to do with all those extra burgers. She told me she was just going to crumble them up and make chili out of it. I had never thought of using left over burgers that way.

Wendy's. And I remember the Blue Angels as well... They were the "headliners" at the annual open house at NAS Meridian near where I grew up. They haven't held the open house for many years [since 9/11?] and I would love to see the BAs again!

When the shipper guys told you to go get a tare weight slip I wanted to reach through my computer and throttle them! You could have been standing there bleeding to death and they would've probably ignored you. I could feel your pain as you politely told them how nice it would've been to know about needing the scale ticket BEFORE you drove there! But you couldn't tell them how you really felt because you never would've gotten loaded. Those are the kinds of things that make trucking so "interesting". Great video Jack. You are the consummate professional.

wow I worked at a Wendy's about 35 years ago and that is wrong if they had that many unsold hamburgers. At the store I was at we always cooked the hamburgers fresh and put them into the chili pot, I guess it all depended on the store and management but ours was always fresh square hamburger meat I still love Wendy's chili. Great show Indiana love the new red of your truck and as always keep on truckin....

Great trip Jack! Glad you got away from the Texas border. Even though I'm a Texan, I don't go near the border. Really enjoyed the trip though. Nice backing job at your destination. Love avocados with salt and lemon and I was wondering if you, "like Ishift"? LOL, just kidding. From the sound, it shifts very smoothly, and I can see why you like it. Hope you're enjoying GATS.. Thanks once again for sharing your adventures. You're the best!

For all you new truckers out there two pieces of advice. 1)call the shipper if possible and find out if the load is ready. 2) call the shipper when you get close and confirm.

That's smart I will use that on the bumpy roads we have up here in Canada, only a matter of time before I hit a bump hard enough I screw something up on my body (spine). That's crazy Jack they really need to do something for drivers, 4 hours wait time just to need to leave and go else where, then go get a scale ticket. Would have lost my composer at that point, good for you for having that restraint. Now I haul local, 12 hours a day pounding the pavement. Biggest difference from odr and local I find is with odr you can take a break. Local is 60 to 65 hours a week, week in and out. I miss having a week off once in a blue moon. All the best fella

Your stop at the fuel island where you met the German Shepherd (like) pup would have been the high point of my day. I'm about dogs like that pup is about people. Always looking to befriend the next one I run across. There at the end it appears the kid didn't think much of the avocado. They're an acquired taste. I acquired it about 65 years ago. As the main ingredient in guacamole.

IT is true,my friends called me fry guy for a few weeks because I cooked fries. Then got put on the grill. All they do is drop the leftover paties that are getting over cooked into a container above the grill. They could sit there for hours before being refridgerated until the next day. Yum,yum.
