Running in different parts of the country you start to notice that some areas just feel different.

Staying aware and trusting your instincts goes a long way out here.

Driving through Kansas and seeing fires burning along the highway...

It's hard to tell if it’s controlled or something else.

Either way, it’ll make you pay attention real quick.

Stay safe out there.

Rolling down the road and seeing loads like this...

Massive tires being hauled across the country.

That’s how you know the economy is working. America keeps moving.

Running through Indiana with only a couple hours left on the clock.

Time to start hunting for a place to shut down.

If you know, you know… it’s not always as easy as it sounds.

About a mile from the delivery in Iowa and hit ice.

This is where things get real sketchy real quick.

Gotta stay sharp out here. Everyone be careful.

Quick tip for anyone fixing tarp holes.

Don’t use Gorilla spray adhesive on those “blue jean” patches… it does NOT work!

Had to use Goo Gone, then Dawn Powerwash, then 409 just to get the mess off.

The right glue is E6000 and it actually holds.

Save yourself the headache.

Took a reset at an RV park and got lucky.

Off season rates, a pad big enough for the truck and trailer, and a lake view to top it off.

Not a bad place to park for the night and recharge before the next run.

Got off the highway outside Chicago and found diesel $1.50 cheaper.

Sometimes the best fuel stops aren’t the big truck stops.

YOU just gotta look a little harder.

Rolling into Dallas and ran straight into a hail storm.

Texas weather doesn’t mess around!
One minute clear roads, next minute ice falling from the sky.
Just another day running freight.

Gridlock on the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge in Louisiana today… sat for almost an hour not moving. Anyone who runs this stretch of I-10 knows it can turn into a parking lot real quick. Just part of life on the road. 🚛
