    @24:38 In regards to the parking spot question, you can see multiple dome cameras mounted on those poles on the right (3 per pole). Either someone is manually looking and updating periodically or there is a system that detects big rigs when they park and the sign updates automatically.

    You ask how they know how many parking spots are available, it’s called “detect a loops” same thing that controls red lights you drive over one when you pull in and you drive over one when you leave, they can tell how many cars and trucks are there. As well as all the data like peak traffic times and length of stay.

    Cell phone data is real time and is how some of the apps including Google maps have access to GPS and exact location of traffic. If you think about how Google maps knows how busy it is at Walmart or any location is by counting the amount of cell phones in that location/restaurant etc.

    David you both talking about the round-a-bout . He you driven on the new intersections that are going to take the place of the round-a- bout . They are mostly on a overpass of a interstate. They are a “x” design an you drive on the wrong side of the road. If you have not an come up on one at night for the first time it will blow your mind. After you have been on one they are great . Also if you are driving straight thru you will be driving on both lanes to get all the way thru it because they are built long . When you were saying a cone for $.75 I thought it was going to say when you was ordering it that is plus the ice cream . I enjoyed this longer video. What beautiful places there are in the US.

    David....we stopped at Little America two days ago but did not get the ice cream. I believe that Little America was founded in the early part of the 1900's by a traveler that was stranded in a blizzard. As there is no other place within miles of that location he decided to build a safety shelter that has now been greatly expanded. BTW, there is another little america location in Cheyenne.

    Oh what a great video! I love the kinda “behind the scenes” cooking videos and need more of them! I agree with another person who commented that we need a Q&A session. We send in questions for y’all to look over (at your leisure…lol) and y’all answer them. I think people would love that! As always, this was another great video! Safe travels!! 😎

    I have travelled heaps, camping in remote areas, 4x4 ing, caravanning but have only have seen 1 large, long RV like yours. This was in the outback where a station aka ranch, was and the owner had imported it from the USA. As there are not many service stations out there so fuel is very precious and unless you have a fuel tanker with you it’s hard to justify such a long unit. But enjoy and be safe. Oh I live in Australia.

    I ran 84 -> 80 eastbound hauling a load out of Portland about two weeks before you came through westbound. That is such a beautiful area. Little America is a real gem. Time permitting, I like to stop there. The food is good and reasonably priced. A coworker of mine stops there every time she goes through there, just to take a bath.
    I really love your Volvo 780. I miss the Volvo 760 that I had at my old company. I'm a few years from retirement, and I want to buy a used Volvo or Cascadia, drive commercially long enough to get it paid off, then use it as a HDT to pull a 5th wheel camper for retirement.

    I enjoy the drone shots. One thing I like about Kansas interstate rest areas are the circular parking areas for overnighting. I found them nice when traveling with my RVs, and more quiet. I noticed a lot of tree damage on the farm. It made me wonder if they have had tornados over the years.
