You will pull the rig right up on campus. I was thinking of you on Tuesday and hoping you were all safe. I'm praying for everyone in Greenfield and the area. Thank you for sharing the beautiful countryside. Stay safe, and God bless.
I filled up with diesel on Tuesday here in Longview TX $3.13 but I also get a $0.50 discount per gallon with C/C points. So $2.63 a gallon. Loved that. Bout a buck a gallon cheaper than the truck stop in your video.
They have orange cone fever.you can drive through a construction zone at posted speed,not 20 mph unless posted speed is 20 mph.maybe rubberneckers,want to see what's going on.happy trails going to South Dakota.When I was trucking,if I got home before my son got out of school,elementary.i would bobtail and pick him up.he really loved that.hes 38 now so thats been a while ago.
We had one particular contract in UK running bacon and ham in a reefer that did 400miles per day. The Tractor was a Mercedes lp(cabover) 350hp twin turbo. she'd return 9.2 mpg regular as clockwork. The reefer was on 3 axles also ("triax"). This truck just gobbled up the miles. Fantastic. no issues over the years. Sad to see her go.
I haven’t seen Sinclair gas stations since the 70s down here in Texas, miss them. I always use them for the little while they were still here when I could drive.
Congrats on graduation out with the blue great school and a great town they both have a lot to offer I had to kids graduate from there and my daughter works for sdsu and lives in brookings If I have the truck I meet up in Volga. Truck parking and good restraunt. Also parking at Walmart on west end of parking lot . when you are there sometime you and your wife have to check out rays good time take care
My most expensive load was a jet engine, 47 million, though Boing said it cost more. Unless a tank cost more, I don't know. The military made me cross chain it, I wasn't happy about that. When I got to Boing they were po'd. They wrote a letter with a drawing how to chain to take with me for the next time. If it's cross chained don't send it. That W9 hood makes me home sick.
During a trip to Florida 1970's the May Flies were quite active. Trucks and cars, some coated with May Flies though my truck wasn't so much. Nevertheless, the sight really impressed me. Enjoyed the views, especially in South Dakota. Had not seen but very little of that state. Thankee! Be well.
It seems that every other day there is a tornado 🌪️ severe storms. I don’t remember any time that there has been so many in states that normally don’t get that. I do pray for everyone in the area affected 🙏🏻 We all sat here saying, yup Schmidt will stalk Tater Tot. The preparation for graduation 👨🏼🎓 is so stressful, but it was worth it. As you know, my son graduated in 2018 and I still have a hard time thinking of him as being old enough to be an adult. I also think that you are doing great on the emotional side, so far..😁 And anyone that says that they didn’t cry/choked up is lying…. 😊👍🦮🐕🦺🐕🦺🐹🐟🐠
With your own tractor and trailer, your own authority, get your own loads on load boards it's a great life. The country becomes your home and surprising you meet the same people in the craziest places. The down side is paper work, expenses, and worst of all the other drivers on the road and cell phones. I spent 90 days out and 14 to 30 days home. 1998 W9 with a 29' well lowbed. Mechanical. Only moved loads that pay well. Or enjoy where you are.
I deliver to multiple stores in ND. Devil's Lake is one area I despise going at this time of year. Leave Grand Forks with clean windshield. Have to clean the windshield in Devil's Lake.
I Lacrosse WI., they've been know to have to use snow plows to get the mayflies off the roadway on the Mississippi River bridge. I thought you were hauling insulation. Did I miss that unload?
As of right now there is no real truck parking except for runnings and Walmart in brookings, but there suppose to be building a kwik star truck stop there this summer or next I heard. Al's crossing is where u stayed at, I deliver there fuel to them u r very fine where u parked. They arnt that busy
Hey SCHIMDT. Howdy. I hate to say that word that you might not enjoy. It happens to each and every one. You're past 25 years old. One child on her way to college. Son will be next in line. You sir are getting OLD 😣😖😩😫 and memory loss is normal. But you'll be alright. Mrs Sarah. She's still on the one. Forgetting is the 1st stage. Next body pain . In other words SCHIMDT don't try any 🧍🏻🚶🏻🏃🏻🤸🏻🤸🏻🏃🏻🚶🏻. SAFE TRAVELS. 🚛💨💨💨💨
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 I like the style, they look good. Be safe out there, I like to ride along with you and OTRBandit.. My old man was a Long hauler, cars & furniture.
Kurt we are gonna have to get you a note pad, so you can write down the person's name...I find when I write out something it's easier to remember it... just my two penny's
Those pigs at the beginning of the video have names. The first one was "Pork Chop" and his brother next to him was "Bacon". Personally, I'd rather see people slow down too much in a construction zone than speed through it and kill a worker.
Been wanting to share with you about your eating habits. Need more salads and proteins. You’re starting that bulge and after while there’s no turning back. Just saying
