The George Washington Bridge 

Enjoyed that long run Jack. Educational and the adventurous. I'm sure no love lost in New England. Feelings are mutual. Thank you once again for sharing your well done trucking adventures. Much appreciated sir.

I deliver to costco in the North east and travel through there twice a day. The best way to bypass the GW is get on exit 10 in NJ and follow that to i287 to i684. 684 to 84. Another good way is get on 80 west from 95 and get on 287 from 17. Been watching your videos for a long time and I enjoy every one. Stay safe out there.

Unfortunately being sucessful is not looked at favorabley any more in this country. As always Jack excellent film, thanks, and keep them coming.

Your videos are very well produced. They are always a treat to watch!

Another great film Jack thankyou from the UK

I am so happy my OTR Trucker brother introduced me to you wonderful video blogs. You sir are "the truckers' trucker".

I always enjoy your videos about your life on the road. The parade of trucks was gorgeous.

I love these videos. I like watching them in bed. I usually drop to sleep with them on. I mean that in a positive way. I then pick up what I missed the next day.

Jack l like the way you hight light the truck passing ( with the stop and zoo in ). Great trip

Thanks Jack for ride my wife liked the GW bridge (just wonderful even the travel centers) you do a great job

Right on point Jack! I was taught early on by my Grandfather (a trucker) not to be envious of others success.

Hi Jack, another entertaining video..always great spending time with you.

Great vid Jack! I look forward to next weeks episode.

Indiana Jack: I just subscribed to Trucking Exec because I too celebrate people with pools.😊😊😊😊😊Thanks for your great videos and super positive attitude and outlook, all with a sense of humor.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Whats up Indiana Jack been watching your videos ever since i started trucking I think you and JBG travels are the best old school truckers i mean top 5 keep them coming my brother

Nice job on the video mr.indina Jack be safe out there and God bless u from Paris Texas God bless you and thank you for keeping American rolling

Awesome Jack.Love your videos and I live in the northeast and i don't blame you for not wanting to come here. Safe trucking

Me and my daughter went over that bridge during the summer. We came the other way though. We was coming from Vermont to new jersey. And was on a summer time adventure!!

David Brown, you're probably right. I haven't been up that way in years. But when I was driving to and returning from New England everyday the Tappen Zee was my bridge. The GW and the road after that I won't wish on anyone.

The last time I was in Milford, CT was maybe around 2001, the Pilot was half-built so I stopped at that Secondi Bros. truckstop and that was by far one of the filthiest and most run-down truck stops I had ever been to. I'm surprised they're still there, hard to tell in the video but it looks like they cleaned it up somewhat. The parking lot had holes big enough to bury your truck in, and was covered with pissbottles, trash, busted pallets, and blown tires. Inside was no better, filthy bathrooms with no toilet seats or stall doors, walls and ceilings covered with years of cigarette smoke. I can't believe they jacked up the GW bridge toll to $105, it was only $40 back in 2001. Great video as always Jack, keep up the good work.

I just moved out of NYC after living there my whole life. I'm in western NY state now and I love the open roads out here. Driving in and around NYC sucks to put it mildly and I drive a pickup truck. I can't imagine how it is to push an 18 wheeler around the NYC area with all the idiots in a rush in cars all over the place. I'm glad I'm out of there and I am not missing it one bit! Great video as always, be safe out there.

Always nice riding along with you Jack..

Hello Indiana Jack from Oklahoma ......thanks for the video ...safe travels ;)

And I keep coming back for more. And btw that's a good stand you took on that comment, we should celebrate other people's success as it makes us grow too. I don't blame the people, its a common notion to be jealous but it takes courage to looks beyond these materialistic things Thanks for the videos again :) God bless

Jack I live in Massachusetts and love your videos.....Massachusetts is absolutely horrible when it come to truck stops. No consideration for truckers at all!! I don't blame you for never wanting to take another trip up this way lol.

It is too bad I didn't know you were passing through the PA/DE/MD area on I-95 beforehand. 10 miles from where I live in PA. I would have really enjoyed meeting you in person; your videos are a true joy to watch. Wish I had found you earlier on RU-vid. Be safe in your travels!

Sorry about all those tolls you had to pay Jack but me and my wife like your vids and the parade of trucks was awesome maybe someday you can make a film like parade of trucks across america but don't leave out Old Red. Always be safe out there driver and may the roads always be good to you.

I see from your map you rolled through my hometown... Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. I'm sure you said a few things to yourself about our roads here. Great footage as usual! Stay safe and watch out for those products you love so much. (starts with a N ends with an E)

You have some wise words Jack. I cant believe that guy made that pool comment lol. That W& B truck got awefully close....

Thanks Jack for another good video, can’t believe u can pay that kind of toll and still make a little money. Be safe and have a good run from calif.

nice and great video again jack.... miss that old red... lol

I agree! No New England!! Hated going there. I had a pool at one house.... guess I am more successful than I thought?? Keep Trucking and I love your upbeat attitude! I wish more people in all aspects would think positive. Safe Travels!

I LIKE going into service plazas and seeing what they have and what you get.

Another great video, thank you!

Hi Jack, always enjoy your vlogs. I agree with you about taking advice from someone who is,or seems to be doing well. Why someone would not support success is beyond me. I guess some people can't keep air in their blowup pool and Walmart is sold out. Just a little humour for your day. Stay safe and between the ditches.😎

Good video as usual, thanks Jack...

Howdy Jack from Lubbock, Texas!! Enjoy your vid's!

I live in NYC...I choose to cross on a good day...The traffic was moving...somewhat...Thanks again for an excellent video...

Hey Indiana Jack trucker gym again wow it's nice to see you in my backyard I live in Connecticut I have a house in Vermont I work out of Vermont that's something else is it

Gosh....I hate the GW bridge in an automobile-- I can't imagine crossing it in a truck. My "hats off" to truck drivers....you're amazing 👍

Darn. I've been back and forth over that bridge for the last week. Sitting at the pilot now 😀

The whole toll road system is completely ridiculous. Just have the government build the roads and that's it. It seems the toll roads are in crappy condition anyway.

Thank you for posting this great video!. I hope to watch you soon.Take care Indiana!

Another great Video 👌👌👌

Great video, as always Jack! Continue please👍

Welcome to New York!!!! My Neighborhood Washington Heights within walking distance of the GW I can walk a block and get great shots. You are driving under huge high-rise "projects on either side. The bridge lies between 178th and 179th Streets and there is a building that covers the streets off of the bridge. Those tolls are a killer for sure. Most drivers hate the Northeast for that very reason. I don't like driving in NYC and all I drive is a regular car.

That's the way I used to go, but now I always bypass the George Washington Bridge by taking I-287, going around NYC then back to I-95 on the other side of NYC. It adds a few miles but it's a lot less traffic and a lot less in tolls.

The LAST time I went on the lower level I had 2 flat bed tractor trailers on both sides of me. 12 inches to spare both sides. Never went lower level again after that

I’m from Iowa originally and I now reside in Massachusetts moved out there a few months ago and got remarried I’m on a dedicated account for Sysco so I run Across the George Washington Bridge weekly and my usual route is all of New England I enjoyed your video stay safe out there

Speaking of the wind generator, a fellow I knew in Colorado lived off I-70, West of Denver. Two cell providers had sites on his property. They paid to bring in their own power and leased the land from him. He was an electronics engineer and made good money. He said the two leases paid about what he got at work. He said another cell provider was talking with him. Apparently the existing providers were sharing one tower so the new guys would install their own tower.

It was nice meeting you, Jack.

Great job jack.

Here in Massachusetts, we don't call them "round-a-bouts" we call them Rotaries, or Rotary. I know we are one of the few states that use them, but if you know what you're doing, they work when you have several intersecting roads. People who are already in the rotary have the right of way, so you have to wait for enough space to get into it. Some are big enough to have 2 lanes of traffic, but I don't like to be on the inner lane and then have to move to the outer one when the exit to get onto comes up. If the traffic is real busy, it can be hard to move over to the right to get the exit you want, so I stay to the outside lane.

As always great video Indianajack

Your A Great Trucker Jack

That white Pete was a beauty.

Have you ever been in Brooklyn? I just came from there to bring water from the country of Georgia. Which is northeast of Turkey. I don't recommend dropping off loads and picking them up in Brooklyn... Everyone parks right up to the corner of the street there... 24/7!!!

You’re in my stomping grounds. Was at that very Pilot in New Milford around the same time. I don’t go into NY though. Run Regional in the Northeast. In CT and MA a lot.

I really love your videos Jack

yea....the service areas in mass. really suck for truck parking..

Sometimes it seems people's only joy is the failure of other people... In our country, it seems like a norm but I find it nice in some places people very often openly encourage others to success. We get nowhere being negative, that's for sure...

Thanks, Jack. I used to think that the people in England that complained about wind turbines being noisy neighbors were overstating a mild 'whoosh' - - - or something like that. Your video coming thru these bose speakers says that a thud is - or can be - involved, too. Sounds almost industrial.

a bridge and tunnel, I would have liked to see much more of the entire route through New York

I researched the shit out of it before going into Brooklyn. I took a shit nervous piss just before going over the I-278 bridge! It was the first time I ever was there as a truck driver...

Good choice, the 44 from OKC to Wichita falls is just more tolls.

Merry Christmas, Jack. Early...around the 4:15mark in the vid. you mentioned you like mentioning odd ball info. on the G W Bridge. Did you know that "The Miracle on the Hudson" passenger plane flown by Sully Sulenberger that crash landed just down river from this bridge narrowly missed it? He cleared it by less than 100feet in height. There are photo's around showing that. THAT is some freaky stuff

Lol the Mountaire farms truck tho. I used to work there

Just came over ot today first time for me. Got unloaded in brookyn then went west heading to monroe michigan

Your awesome Jack

Usually traffic is dreadful crossin that G.Dub., I go to Secondi 's next to that Pilot in Milford when up there,, I like watching videos of places I've been to.. 👍

Wish I would have known you were here in Lubbock, I would have bought you a meal or even just a coffee.

Thanks for the ride, jack. It is OK by me to see service plazas and truck stops. Keep on truckin!

From Fla. 95 north, take 150 around Richmond to 64. 64 to 81, 81 to 84, fast, no tolls, cheaper fuel, lots of truck stops. 84 runs right through Hartford, stay on it to 90 in Mass, small toll. Head east. If your heading in to Boston, just stay on 90 right in to town. Going to north Mass or Vt., NH, Me. go north 495, no toll to 95 small tolls. Mass is not truck friendly. No place to stop or fuel.

Great video jack

Indiana Jack we think your videos are great. Even the service plazas. Meat and potatoes man.

Hi. I always watch your videos and I love your work I wish I could work like you . Iam watching you from Iraq ( baghdad )and I m interested in your work . I wish you all the best keep going and good luck .

Now you know why I REFUSE to drive up in Yankeeville.

I picked up a load of cotton bales in Lubbock a few years ago. Weighed at a Cat scale a perfect 80,000 gross. No way to get exact axle weight, so I had to go back and off load one bale. You never know.

Nice trek story. Yep, too many tolls suck. I'd think that there would be big time saving if that bridge was converted to speed pass. I guess it depends which gov unit is collecting.

hi my boyfriend Jeff is a trucker & misses being out there on the road. ( been since 2014 since he been in a truck) he would like to see if things have changed much. he's a big fan of yours. peace and thank you :)

Hello jack well this time you literally drove though my town fairhaven ma exit 18 off 195 west bond wich is 240 south I don't blame you for not wanting to come back to the Northeast cost too much we live here we're broke too they say someday our paths may cross

So I'm not worth helping lol just kidding great video jack

I don't have a pool and wasn't that Marlon Brando in the wifebeater T-shirt? Bet he had a few bucks, too!

I was just passing through new York yesterday out of Connecticut one day Indiana jack traffic be a mess going across that bridge.

Happy you were in MA youtube truckers never really get up my way

Thanks Jack!

If you ever find yourself in the Boston area in need of a place to park theres a shopping plasa off of I93 just north of Cambridge.

Wow a $100 bucks is (the GWB) it as much fun as the Magic Kingdom !!!!

When visiting New England an effort should be made to go via I-84 and The Newburgh-Beacon Bridge to cross the Hudson as the toll is much cheaper.

Hi jack I give you credit u made it in and out of RI i dislike that truck unfriendly state old town small streets not a good place for trux I don't no how u stay calm all the time I enjoy your videos keep them coming thanks

As Rush says, if you're looking for a job, don't ask the guy squeegeeing your windshield.

Providence RI, my home town

I have never gone over the GW during the day lol

I used to park at the Pilot in Sturbridge.

go to miss you and your videos

Jack, the GW bridge on the NYCity side doesn't run under or over Manhattan. It's the South Bronx. It's not in the proximity of Manhattan. Believe me. I've been into Hunts Point (South Bronx) enough to know.

I sure would like to drive in the U.S .A just for a year just to no I did it, big rigs wide roads America really caters well for truckers compare to hear in Britain.

Good to know. I always wondered what they were building there in Lubbock

IJ There section upon sections (a section is one square mile or 640 acres) of cotton in that part of Texas
