The other drivers are saying, look at this guy with the house on his truck, he can just pull-over and chill

@bucky716 2 года назад

"On this episode of Highway thru Hell...." Craziness!!! I imagine a lot of people were jealous seeing your truck house.

@LiveSimpleLiveFree 2 года назад

I was a truck driver for 8 years. And this kind of thing was my worst nightmare. I couldn't handle that kind of stress in an 18-wheeler. I got so tired of fighting with my dispatcher who told me I must go, when I knew it wasn't possible. Finally, I had another snowstorm coming in and my dispatcher telling me to go anyway. After 8 years of driving, I quite right there on the spot!!! I sat there watching this video with my heart pounding and hyperventilated. And praising God that I don't have to do that anymore. Now, thanks to my You Tube channel, I can spend my winters as a Florida or Arizona Snowbird. 😎🏝

I drove for 4 years and then I had to take a break for almost 2 and 1/2 years now because of personal and medical issues. Don't know when you drove but some companies are still bad but most of them today won't push you like that. The only issue I ever came across was them telling you if you absolutely can't drive because you're tired and you're falling asleep that it doesn't matter what load your carrying to tell them and your life is more important and the load actually making it there and not on the side of the highway in pieces is more important and then when that time actually came with me one company made me feel so bad about it that I chugged like three red bulls and they don't have anyone else to take the load but miraculously 30 minutes later after I chug three red bulls and had not a prayer of sleeping after that they found someone to take the load. Then I was pissed. Really they should tell people no matter how hard your company or dispatcher makes you feel that if you can't take a load you tell them you can't take a load and at the end of the day if your job is threatened or whatever no matter how hard they make you feel bad about it or push you or whatever if it comes down to it and goes over their head they will be in trouble and not you. But they don't tell you that. They don't tell you that the right thing is to Not take the load or park the truck or whatever no matter what hell you get trying to do it and that ultimately once it goes up the chain of command you will be vindicated but you will take a load of hell before that point. You're right not really worth it if you can find something else to do. For me it's the best job I was ever able to get so I can't wait to go back but I'm going to make damn sure I'm in better health and better suited for that lifestyle before I go back.

@shannonmurphrey923 Месяц назад

I drove for 31 yrs quit for Health reasons. I got real quick to tell if it's dangerous I'm not driving in it. Mostly they took my word for it, because when I got back in their face I went. Told that their ass would fit that seat as well as mine get some!! 🖕

@spiritededucators 2 года назад

I live in the town you got gas in and had all the issues with regarding stuck traffic (Hope BC) and that was a good snowfall for sure. You’re lucky you missed the atmospheric river that was here a couple weeks earlier that caused landslides and flooding that trapped nearly 2000 people in our small town for a week with no support (or power for the first couple days) with people sleeping in their cars and the local teachers opened up the a school to create a shelter for the trapped visitors. Strangers even opened up their homes for people to have somewhere warm and dry to stay until they could get out, a week later… 4 highways all closed. It’s a special place, we love it! Glad you were able to visit.

@TruckHouseLife 2 года назад

Crazy, yup missed the flooding!

@shawnjustice6862 2 года назад

@chupacabra1765 2 года назад

Were so happy to have provided you with this weather here in BC. It'd going to make for interesting and dramatic content. Can you please on occasion hold the camera on road signs so we can figure out where you are. I thought originally you were stuck near Christina lake, but later on the drone video it was clear, you only made it to the Sunshine valley. You're lucky you got stuck and turned around there. Highway 3 has some pretty narrow twists with steep drop off spots on it. Be especially gnarly in this type of weather.

@TruckHouseLife 2 года назад

I'll try haha!

@mobiltec 2 года назад

In CA and NV you're not supposed to pass the plows. Good job on being prepared for the long haul. You just never know what is going to happen next.

Yup that was fairly sketchy.

@MNJay1 2 года назад

The first thing I noticed in the first video I watched of yours, was the thumbnail picture of the camper. So I watched the video. Second thing I noticed was, it's a Ford. The third thing I noticed was, you don't have mudflaps on back. They make a mudflap attachment that fits over your hitch and provides vehicle width coverage. From side to side. The entire ass end would have flap protection. Imagine not having to step on to an icy buildup on the tongue of the trailer. Imagine not spraying road salt, sand, oil and grime all over the front of your haul trailer and towed vehicle. It acts like a sand blaster. Your trailer and trailered vehicle will start rusting within a year. It's just a suggestion, but maybe take some (if you're receiving it) patreon money and invest in some mudflap protection. Either way, it's a worthwhile investment.

@erindunebuggy9772 2 года назад

Yikes Tim, the Knarl factor is climbing as you head North......Stag safe buddie.🤟🌎

@bryanwahlstrom6300 2 года назад

A hardworking man with a solid work ethic and the unique combination of good enough taste and big enough balls to spend his little bit of extra income on a sweet '87 Samurai sight unseen and then haul it all the way to Alaska! Anyone who doesn't love that should just shut up and GTFO! If you don't appreciate it then you don't belong here. I wish you all the best Timmy, you're what makes RU-vid great

Oh WOW!! Ok, you can call me chicken but I believe I would have relaxed in my warm cabin, cooked up something yummy, locked up the home on wheels and took a little hike up the road with my drone and got some awesome shots of a fresh avalanche!! Come home, had some warm coffee, maybe some popcorn or Mac and cheese and waited for the road to get cleared. Especially after transmission overheated!! And now climbing even steeper, gnarly, crooked roads....yep...I'M.CHICKEN!😆😂🤣 You do some awesome driving and clearly experienced in treacherous road conditions!! 6 inches of snow here and we're shut down for days, til it melts!!🤣 Great video...believe I'll watch another and calm down a little😆 Thanks for sharing!!

@66gtoify 2 года назад

You should be very happy that you get to travel all over the country. We appreciate that you share your experiences with us. It was kinda a hassle what you went through, but you will never for it. My daughter and her family just got back from Mexico tonight after being stranded for 3 weeks because they caught COVID while they were down there. They had to stay an extra week after their vacation was over until they all tested negative. They ended up having to stay in a 2nd rate motel for the last 5 days. I know they will never forget that vacation either. The extra week cost them at least an extra $1000.00. To bad they didn't have a truck house to live in.

@TruckHouseLife 2 года назад

Yup definitely super grateful:) That sucks about the hotel geeez.
