If you haven’t had the chance, you need to go to ‪@HeavyDSparks‬ channel and look up the Cerro Gordo series that we filmed back in June. Turned out to be an amazing adventure and you’ll really enjoy it.
The following is going to be a behind the scenes more candid look at what all went into it from my perspective.
The Cerro Gordo ghost town is a piece of western history located west of the great Death Valley in California. Brent Underwood has endeavored to begin preserving the former mining town for many generations to enjoy. Sadly the Historic “American Hotel”, which was the crown jewel of the town, burned to the ground recently.
With the help of many, reconstruction has begun.
Come along on an adventure to see the role that HeavyDsparks, his crew, and myself played in getting the ball rolling.
Enjoy!

Well…. To be Frank, you are a bit Thano-esque in the shoulders. Not to mention the glittery fingerless driving glove you keep under the seat of your Kenworth. Those factors contributed to the decision.

Watched Brent since the first show and watched HeavyD and you all for a long time. When I was watching the first show he announced he was going to help Brent I stood up and cheered like my team just won the superbowl because I was really worried whether Brent's dream would come true or not, so thank you soooo much for helping him and being the real American men you are. !!

@three6ohchris 2 года назад

I'm a little late to the show, but I just wanted to say 1 thing... It's kind of incredible to think about how things had to have lined up perfectly for Dave to see you on the highway that day. I mean, if either of you had left a few minutes earlier, or later... Decided to make a quick stop somewhere... I mean, it honestly seems like fate absolutely caused you guys to cross paths. It was clearly meant to be, and all of us are incredibly lucky that it happened. Great video bud! Looking forward to the future!

Love all you guys! Brent, Heavy D, Diesel Dave, and really glad I found your channel too. I've been driving 25 years and I've driven pretty much everything. Started in a '66 KW with a 5 and 4 two-stick. Loved driving cabovers when I ran solo, but hated teaming in them. I'm still running, but I'm in a Cadillac Volvo now. Lazy trucking. Too old for the hard stuff now. But I'm really happy for you all and being able to watch you. Stay safe and keep the good videos coming.
