Good morning, everybody.

We're here in hasty Minnesota.

Just got the truck all ready to go, the trailer ready to go.

The load is tied down tight.

I'm going to be home tonight.

We're going home tonight, Friday night, Saturday, and we're leaving Sunday around supper.

Got to deliver these in Saskatchewan Monday morning.

had a nice spot here this might be my new favorite

spot though this one's never available this one's usually the first

one to go you can push your trailer like i was

saying last night all the way to the back there to the grass

but this giant puddle is here and

that puts your cab right in the puddle

if there's a barrier up there i just pulled up so that i could step out onto the dry ground

and i'm ready to go well let's rock and roll

AC cranked everything ready to go lights on check make sure

my trailer's coming with me double trip check I'm just gonna spike the brakes here forward

beautiful all right let's get going I want to go home you want to go home I want to go home Ah,

my engine fan.

It keeps up a dust storm.

There we go, it turned off.

So I got my coffee.

I made it myself.

Somewhat of a...

What do you call those people?

Barista.

Guess it loses its...

edge when you forget the joke or what you were gonna say i haven't had the coffee yet that's the point

we're gonna get back on that highway right there we're gonna go that way

that is i-94 we are west of minneapolis in minnesota

and I have this load behind me

that I picked up in Iowa yesterday like I said before

it's going to Saskatchewan about five hours from my house it's got to deliver Monday morning

and it's Friday now so I'm gonna go home with my house is on the way literally stop there

and then head out Sunday evening so that I can be waiting at the customer in Saskatchewan

first thing Monday morning for them, get these things off my trailer and we'll see what they have up for me.

I haven't received any word about what's going on next week yet.

I'm expecting to hear sometime today.

I've got a short week next week because I've booked off Thursday and Friday.

Man, what is up with this traffic here right now?

Every time, every time.

Come on now.

Thursday and Friday, my sister did some home renovations.

And I wasn't planning this for a very long time.

So I'm going to go and help out with that.

Let's clear our throat first thing in the morning.

Another parade.

Oh, another one.

Look, there comes another one.

Why not?

I probably could have gone just now, but I'm just too nice.

I'm too nice.

I've got to get meaner, more aggressive.

Oh, and this Saturday, tomorrow, I'm going to go pick up my new seat for Old Blue.

That'll be fun.

Rockin' a roll, a slap of the bass. On the road.

Giddy up.

That was a smooth entrance.

What do you think?

I'd like to make an entrance.

We're in Drayton, North Dakota.

We're turning left.

We're at the Loves.

Get some lovely diesel fuel.

Prices have come down.

Pump price here is $4.30 US per gallon for diesel.

Gasoline sitting at $3.70 cents per gallon.

So fuel is coming down.

Okay, gotta hand it to them.

A little slower than I would have liked it to, but it's coming down.

And this man-eating pothole has gotten bigger.

Look at that.

It's the whole side of the road now.

Yikes, watch out.

You lose your soul down there.

Demons be down there.

You have reached your stop left, Travel Stop number 843, Drayton, ND.

The stop is on your left.

there she be fuel her up I'm sitting just just below quarter tanks

and we will continue on up the road there is a

scale coming up on the US side according to trucker path is open

and the one on the Canadian side is closed at the moment might change by the time we get there

but that's what the forecast is right now at the

US side is open Canadian side is closed tell everybody

that I am on duty not driving fueling oh I

can't wait to get my new seat oh I don't think

I can even imagine how good it's gonna feel right now

I don't even understand yet how good it's gonna feel oh I'm gonna go pick it up tomorrow

and uh bring it to my shop

and then I'll probably install it in a week

or two I don't have time this weekend we got a

full weekend lined up of stuff maybe next weekend as soon as possible though

but at least I'll have it in the shop right

and then to switch them out should be pretty straightforward it's like four bolts

and hook up the airlines but I've never done it before

so it's going to take me a little longer to do the first one.

And then that's probably when I'll take out this passenger one.

We'll see how much time I have that day.

It all comes down to time.

100

The most valuable resource we have that I have.

101

Wish I had more of it.

102

Why can't the days be longer, right?

103

Oh, because we'd fill them up with other work to do.

104

That's why.

105

Okay, let's get out there.

106

So we got the load here to our yard and went home for the weekend.

107

It's now Sunday evening and I'm going to continue with this load out to Saskatchewan

108

so that I'm in position and ready to unload it first thing tomorrow morning on Monday.

109

You'll see that this light right here is on.

110

That's the light I was talking about that tells me when my trailer air system is engaged.

111

so if I had a flat tire

112

that light would come on in my mirror it's pretty bright at night actually

113

so you notice it right away tells you

114

that the air is active actively pushing into the trailer the reason it's on now is

115

because when I parked it here over the weekend I dumped all the air out of the suspension

116

so that my landing gear would be protected that's maybe a topic for another video

117

but if you got any kind of air leak in your trailer at all sometimes you can't even hear it

118

and you leave your trailer parked and loaded it'll leak all the way down right

119

and as it does

120

that it puts a lot of pressure on these landing gear you could damage them

121

so whenever I park it especially when I'm loaded I dump all the air

122

and so now it's just filling the trailer back up

123

and that's why it's engaged that's why that light is on

124

but I figured that was a good opportunity to show you what it looks like

125

when it's on and that's uh that's our load We had a really good trip up.

126

These are really good loads.

127

I really love these.

128

So, we'll be unloaded first thing tomorrow morning.

129

We don't have anything planned on us yet for Monday.

130

I have to be back by Wednesday night because I'm helping my sister, like I've been telling you.

131

Thursday, Friday.

132

And I really want to install my seat.

133

So, if they don't find anything more for me tomorrow after I unload, they just send me home.

134

I really want to get my seat installed probably Wednesday.

135

Because I went

136

and picked it up this week by the way i haven't made a video of it yet

137

but i did go

138

and pick it up it's amazing it's like cooled cooling memory

139

foam just your butt just sinks into it just feels like

140

oh it feels like butt heaven it's amazing i can't wait

141

to put it in my truck honestly i'd like to possibly do

142

that on wednesday if they send me back home

143

but i'd really like to fill up this week as much

144

as i can i want to get another load in

145

so maybe they'll send me to kenora and do another one i don't know

146

see what they have available but

147

if I do work until Wednesday evening then I'd like to install it in my truck on Saturday if possible

148

but as soon as soon as we can I can't wait

149

to show you guys the seat I've told you what it

150

is already right the Bostrom wide ride Serta it's uh I'm

151

looking forward to it's gonna be a whole new world for me

152

because my back really needs it but oh you can see

153

that rear axle lifted off the ground already that means my trailer is lifting.

154

That's good.

155

Filling with air.

156

I'm going to wait until it's completely filled and that light turns off.

157

And then we'll head out.

158

About a five hour drive in Saskatchewan.

159

I figured I'd film that right now and add it into the vlog.

160

See that?

161

Once that light turns off, we're ready to go.

162

Oh, I got a purple spot in my eye now.

163

It's really bright.

164

Oh, I shouldn't have done that.

165

Brighter than I...

166

I knew it was bright, but man.

167

I can't complete my pre-trip until that's done anyways because

168

that has to turn off for me to pass my truck for a pre-trip.

169

If this is on, that doesn't pass the pre-trip and I won't take it on the road.

170

Unless if it's just to a tire shop.

171

Like if it's just leaking a little bit like that's happened before.

172

But if there's no leaky tire or anything and I can't figure out what's wrong, I don't want to take it out with that on.

173

So you'll hear the air dryer go off, and the blow-off valve will go from the truck once it's done filling up the compressor.

174

Shortly after that goes, this will turn off.

175

It takes a little while.

176

I got it at high idle right now.

177

Once that turns off, then I've got to finish my pre-trip on the trailer.

178

I'll shut the truck off walk around make sure there's no actual audible air leaks And we'll be on our way

179

It's gonna be any time now wait for it Come on old wood come on

180

Come on.

181

And when it's fully out of air, it takes a little while to fill it all the way back up.

182

Come on.

183

There it is.

184

Okay, now wait for this to turn off.

185

I just want to look directly into it again.

186

It's meant to get your attention in your mirror, right?

187

And it works.

188

Come on.

189

Come on, I'm going to fall asleep.

190

Let's go.

191

Ah, there we go.

192

That part of the pre-trip is complete.

193

All right, now we'll shut her down, shut her down, shut her down.

194

And now we'll do the walk around, make sure the lights...

195

Oh, gotta put the brakes on.

196

What am I doing?

197

The way I do that is I just spike the trailer brakes.

198

here like that and mine stays there some don't

199

but you can always use a bungee okay so we should hear no audible air leaks i don't hear none brake lights

200

marker lights everything working we'll test these out too

201

yep that's oh look at this this one has really i

202

haven't even used these yet i haven't even hauled a wide load yet i'm already missing some

203

well okay well lights are all working back here anyway

204

and there's no air leaks

205

so i'm gonna bring you guys back in the track that's

206

disappointing I mean they're still good to be used like that

207

and I don't need them

208

but I paid for those I haven't even had the chance to haul a wide load yet

209

oh yeah a little bit bumpy here going around Porridge and Prairie I was expecting to hit some rain here.

210

I looked at the forecast because

211

when I was leaving home my mom actually messaged me and said that I might be driving into some storms.

212

So I looked at it.

213

Yeah sure enough around Portage here there was supposed to be a huge thunderstorm happening right now.

214

Where's that?

215

Maybe north of us over there but that's definitely not a thunderstorm.

216

Maybe it's ahead of us yet.

217

Maybe it hasn't reached here but...

218

In this case, I like it when the weather forecasters are wrong.

219

Hopefully it stays this way, but I'm sure I'll hit it somewhere.

220

Well, I made it through the storm.

221

You might see it flashing on the back of that trailer.

222

There's a lot of lightning behind me.

223

And I had two tornado warnings come through to my phone.

224

But I made it through.

225

Didn't see anything, didn't see any big winds or anything.

226

I went through a little bit of rain, but that was about it.

227

Nothing to write home about.

228

We are now about 20 minutes from Whitewood.

229

We're in Saskatchewan already.

230

I'm going to stop at the Co-op or the Petro Pass, whichever has better parking.

231

Right at the corner of the TransCanada on Whitewood.

232

Or at Whitewood.

233

I really hope this guy doesn't shine his high beams in my mirror when I pass him.

234

That's such a pet peeve of mine.

235

Hey, it's okay to merge back in now.

236

Pow!

237

Blind me.

238

That's not helping.

239

Waiting for it.

240

Please don't.

241

Please don't.

242

They usually wait until you turn your signal on.

243

Okay, here we go.

244

Oh, thank God.

245

Thank God they didn't flash their high beams at me.

246

Nothing ticks me off more than that.

247

I get like, like my blood boils.

248

I don't need you to blind me in my mirror.

249

And people defend it over and over.

250

I've been talking about this for 15 years on YouTube.

251

And there's still these guys out there who defend it.

252

Tooth and nail.

253

Get all angry about it.

254

And it's these guys that have no idea

255

that the trucks they're driving have an actual feature built in by the engineers who built their truck. That do that. That dim your lights.

256

For that, that's the only purpose that's there there on a Peterbilt

257

and Kenworth you push your your signal lever right you pull it up you get high beams right

258

but you push it down your lights dim you might be like oh why did they do

259

that it's so

260

that you can signal people in front of you it's safe

261

to merge back in you don't need to do the whole

262

kapow with your high beams anymore they've engineered this special feature just for you

263

but yet people still refuse to use that

264

and they still want to blind you in your mirror every single time

265

and they'll defend it i'm just oh you just want to like pull over

266

and just smack them right biggest pet peeve biggest pet peeve do not shine your high beams in my mirror

267

unless you really wanted an angry trucker josh I have very bright lights that are pointed backwards.

268

I know I would never shine them in your eyes, but They would give you a good dose of your own medicine

269

If I chose to turn them on right in your eyes as you did to me

270

Use the feature that was engineered specifically for that purpose driver.

271

It's safe to turn back into the lane That's what it's there for my friends.

272

That's what it's there for.

273

I decided to park at the Petro Pass.

274

Here in Whitewood, Saskatchewan.

275

Co-op is just across the street over there.

276

That's where I often park as well.

277

Today, this is our home.

278

Not too busy here.

279

There's me, this guy here, another guy on the other side there.

280

And then that guy over there

281

so one another guy there one two three four five trucks

282

here i've been here at times where this whole place is just jam-packed

283

and it's a gravel lot right so there's no lines painted obviously

284

so everybody parks wherever they want and you gotta be careful

285

that you don't get blocked in in the morning whereas over

286

at co-op over there across the street where am i pointed over there

287

there it's it's a gravel lot also

288

but there's only parking on this end there

289

and it's much easier to determine where we should and shouldn't park so usually you won't get blocked in there

290

this lot however is just a little different

291

but we'll be good here tonight we'll wake up in the morning we'll get this delivered

292

and we'll uh see what fate has in store for us right

293

trucking fate we'll see what they uh want to send us

294

but i am tired i have had a weekend at home

295

which has been exhausting

296

but rewarding i love being at home with my family with my kids there's nothing better than

297

that no place i'd rather be but it does take a lot of energy out of me

298

so I'm gonna go back there

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
