Truckers: A Road Well Traveled (Part 1) 

I am incredibly grateful for the work that the men and women behind the wheel of a truck do every single day. They may not all be pleasant characters, but it's a tough life, and without them our civilisation couldn't exist. I find it sad that they're treated so poorly despite doing such a vital service.

What's funny is most 4 wheelers hate us with a passion but even the ones that hate us need us for survival!

Met a lot of truckers in the oil patch....in the last 25 yrs....all good people...with tons of good stories....God bless them....

Dude kiss's and hugs his pickup truck, but not his wife.......Tells her "jacket needs a sew job".... Don't think that one is going to last long.......

this was made in 2001??? lol, looks more like 1981

Respect👍I was a truck driver for 12 year here in europe. My wife couldt handle it anymore. It was a nice time but it is hard on the wifes. Espalialty when you have kids. Deep respect for the wifes if you are solang from home. I have a special place in my hart for all the truckers and wifes. Keep on trucking👍

Guy kisses his truck but barely pays any attention to his woman who clearly loves and misses him. Geez!

Stu's wife just couldn't control herself when he got home!

growing up my family even dad drove a truck my neighbor was owner operator i spent lot time with my neighbor learning to drive and working on his truck, i skip school go trucking with my neighbor, i remember seeing this on tv one night it inspired me more become a truck driver now im a owner operator hit my goal its tough being owner operator and lot of work and responsibility owning a business

*I have been through this shit for long time, why am I even watching it*

Im watching this as im laying in my sleeper in a truckstop some where in the arizona desert.

I like how they are saying you have to be older to driver truck most guys are middle aged driver. Yeah im 22 and drive anyone can drive a truck now whether they speak english or not and flip flops and basketball shorts or not.

Great to see you too Honey !!!

4:40 She looks really excited to see him.

Dude kisses his truck but not his wife & makes her carry his bags. What an absolute legend!

2020 coronavirus truck drivers are still working. O/O here 10/4

I grew up in trucking in the 70's. Far as I was concerned, I was gonna do it my whole life. But our gov't couldn't leave it alone and made laws to get rid of guys like me. I really miss it though but the trucking I knew is gone. Now the truck crash percentages are worse than ever!

Always like the fact I've got an attitude even though my foods delivered cold

Sometimes I am becoming curious about trucking with those long trucks and watching videos like this. Great vid. Thanks!!!

His wife carries eveything & he carries the pillow, lmao!

This must be an old video. @6:48 distracted driving at its finest.

Man!!!! He got that girl trained perfectly!!! Boy them days are long gone! He'd get put in jail for abuse today! 🤣🤣🤣

Even this feels like the good old days, pre eld

Keep up to great work on the videos

Damn those are some pretty trucks.

Want some coffee with your sugar?

Here for the comments!! And there great!!

When I was young I had great respect for truckers - I remember being a little kid and my father (who was a mechanic and tracher) telling me how truckers were usually VERY good drivers. That stuck with me... until recent years when I have seen some of the WORST driving I can imagine - and the realization came that a lot of truckers (at least now) are every bit as bad as all the other idiots out there. When I was young, truckers almost always signalled changing lanes... now I see them swerve over all the time with no signal... high beaming people.....even little things like that.... I’ve personally chased down three truckers and yelled at them for several minutes - one moron from Quebec nearly killed me - I had to drive onto the island bc he merged onto the road from the On ramp and inexplicably in broad daylight could not see me, the onto other vehicle, and just cut right over trying to smash right into me! Insane...I think the standard have deteriorated for truckers just like everyone else. Wish it were still the old-school guys out there....

it's not an easy job for every week you're out you get a day off at home so the longer you stay out the more time you get it home and if you hang out at the truck stops all the time you're not going to make any money you can make good money driving a truck but your trucks got to be going you got to keep moving all the time

LMAO!!!! Oh hell no!!!! He kisses his pickup truck, the other greets his cat and both don't even say shit to their wives!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Homeboy kissed his truck and not his wife 😂😂😂😂

She was carrying all the bags he was carrying the pillow wtf

I load trailers for a living. my job to dispatch Drivers once the trailers full. used to have this Lady Quebecer that I named "horse face" nag me for her load. one night she comes in , I sign her off and off her an her team driver went. was the last time I saw her. later that night making their way on the highway, their truck went around a blind curve as another truck an trailer were coming the opposite way...someone fell asleep at the wheel...crossed the line. she died...leaving two daughters behind. the job has it's risks. Wether you drive Long haul or intown. you have my thanks an gratitude.

I've driven most of my life - it's a ruff life if you got paid double the going rate. I thank God I did 15 years under a Teamster contract 'retired now

La vida de un camionero es bonita cuando te gusta lo que haces, pero triste cuando te alejas de tu familia. Son dos tipos de sentimientos distintos amor al trabajo y ala familia.

Been there,done that!!!!!!

Damn Ed.. hug your wife! She's waiting on you. Recipe for disaster.

To hell you guys aren't the knights of the road. I rode X-country on a very underpowered 250cc motorcycle and I swear you guys were looking out for me.

Those accents are strong lol. Good doc

Bro is filling out his logbook while driving in the snow and talking about safety 😂 Canadians are built different.

That foo kissed his truck before his chic😖😂😭✌✌✌HILARIOUS

How are they going to get this stuff now that Clearinghouse is now in effect since January 2020?!?!

In my 25 years of driving one thing that stands out the most is rules and regulations for trucks are getting harder and harder but for your everyday traveler in cars it’s easier. They it’s for safety if that’s true then why when a car and truck is involved in a accident 75 percent of the time it’s the car’s fault? Anyone who drives should have to know some Safty things for trucks , how the turn, how they stop ec. Cars should have to take a monthly Safty exam just like trucks today

After a week or more on the road, Stu doesn't even hug his wife of 21 years, and Ed..., this dude has more love for his pickup truck than for his wife whom he's not seen in days, if not weeks, kissing it without even a "Hello" for her. Can you hear it? B.B. King singing "The Thrill is Gone." I'm out on the road big-rigging in the U.S. and the first thing I do when I get home is hug and kiss my wife. Surely y'all know what the second thing I do is; and I'll give you a hint, it doesn't involve my pickup. Well, there was that one time on my way home when my Mrs had it and picked me up from the terminal. Needless to say, waiting until we got home wasn't an option. Lol.

What year was the western star semi

can't believe this was 2001. looks like 1980s

11:49...How bout a little coffee with that sugar, Good Buddy?!😄

11:48 Just a little sugar...

Great video :) loved it. But i dont know why that guy said anybody younger than him needs to find another career they cant get the job done. Thats a lie dude at one point i know he was told not to do that job because he didnt have any experience. If the younger guys dont pick up the Trucking industry there will be no more trucks or Freight

Wow two happy happy wife’s

9:39 11:21 I live in Fort St John. Cool!

The driver sees his wife and says here...handing her a thermos tells her heneeds a jacket sewn and hands more stuff to carry to the pickup truck. He walks up excited at the site of his pickup and kisses the pickup lol

today. drivers get kicked out of truck stops and peoples just want your money,, paycheck. need to win the lottery and retire..

His truck is built by Weyland Industries out of alien film's

"And everything like that"... Dude married a girl with a 2nd grade education. Good job

@11:49...wow! coffee flavored sugar to go please!

RIP Stu 1954-2017

Is Ron rick still in business?

Damn nice star car and 379

When were these videos taken

Glad he grabbed his pillow lol

Away from home for DAYS lolololo, I wish.

WTF! HE'S P/U TRUCK GETS A KISS FIRST DAMN NOT EVEN A HUG TO THE WIFE WHAT A PUNK!

They are stuck in the 80s up there in Alberta wow, big hair and stone washed Jean jackets!!!

Has his wife carry everything, then carries his pillow, straight jerk

And the first word out of his mouth is 'HERE' and then kisses his truck? Hmmmmm!

Why are these drivers not wearing pajama pants,a stain dirty shirt, and flip flops?

1990.. no? 2001

The fight to be recognized as a valuable person in society as a trucker has been fought for decades and still, reflected in the statement "everything you use in your daily life, a truck brought it to you". Unfortunately a AI programmed truck is going to take the wheel in a few short years.

A couple of hay seeds....eeh?

Best thing to do in Canada...leave Canada

Want a little coffee with your sugar?

The industry has gone to the poop. Trucking is so much in demand they hire just plain wanna be's truckers now. No pride.

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸+++

04:32This man comes to his house. No one receives his wife for 21 years does not wait for him with a kiss, coffee or a beer? hell poor man

@ 4:00 the man kisses his pickup but somehow forgot to kiss is wife on return...

2020 it's still the same here in canada and the USA and there people that should not be in the truck you know who you are if you got a brain get out of it

Mutton head is happier to see his shitty pick up .

All truckers cheat. I come from a trucking family,I know it’s true.
