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

That'll be fun.
56
Rockin' a roll, a slap of the bass. On the road.
57
Giddy up.
58
That was a smooth entrance.
59
What do you think?
60
I'd like to make an entrance.
61
We're in Drayton, North Dakota.
62
We're turning left.
63
We're at the Loves.
64
Get some lovely diesel fuel.
65
Prices have come down.
66
Pump price here is $4.30 US per gallon for diesel.
67
Gasoline sitting at $3.70 cents per gallon.
68
So fuel is coming down.
69
Okay, gotta hand it to them.
70
A little slower than I would have liked it to, but it's coming down.
71
And this man-eating pothole has gotten bigger.
72
Look at that.
73
It's the whole side of the road now.
74
Yikes, watch out.
75
You lose your soul down there.
76
Demons be down there.
77
You have reached your stop left, Travel Stop number 843, Drayton, ND.
78
The stop is on your left.
79
there she be fuel her up I'm sitting just just below quarter tanks
80
and we will continue on up the road there is a
81
scale coming up on the US side according to trucker path is open
82
and the one on the Canadian side is closed at the moment might change by the time we get there
83
but that's what the forecast is right now at the
84
US side is open Canadian side is closed tell everybody
85
that I am on duty not driving fueling oh I
86
can't wait to get my new seat oh I don't think
87
I can even imagine how good it's gonna feel right now
88
I don't even understand yet how good it's gonna feel oh I'm gonna go pick it up tomorrow
89
and uh bring it to my shop
90
and then I'll probably install it in a week
91
or two I don't have time this weekend we got a
92
full weekend lined up of stuff maybe next weekend as soon as possible though
93
but at least I'll have it in the shop right
94
and then to switch them out should be pretty straightforward it's like four bolts
95
and hook up the airlines but I've never done it before
96
so it's going to take me a little longer to do the first one.
97
And then that's probably when I'll take out this passenger one.
98
We'll see how much time I have that day.
99
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
299

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
