Hello again. Although I never got to drive by an old school, I did deliver to a jobsite that one of my brothers worked at. I had an escalator and he worked as an high voltage electrician . Have a good one.
It all depends on the work! Hard to make interesting videos when I’m dispatched boring loads! Winter is coming also and it’s hard to film in winter. The cameras get dirty quickly. But I’m trying!!!
Wo c’était juste une virée pour le fun?!! Vous auriez été capable de faire le drive thru Tim Horthons au coin de la maine avec cette équipe là😂 Good job guys!
You work with surgical precision and we can see why mistakes can be costly. Keep on showing the world that trucking is serious business. My hockey team lost in the finals in the 8 th annual lachute tournament but I won't hold it against you Doug....Keep on trucking!
Laurentian Regional High School is where you learned perfect English? You seem trilingual, according to some of your videos. P.S. I was pulling up the wires from my end.
My first language is English. I learned the basics of French in school yes but I got better later in life when I really realized the advantage. I wish I had more time to learn more languages
Salut Lucky Banana,je voulais savoir,sur ton chargement,as-tu des glissières (teflon,fibre ou nylon),pour que les fils glissent sans accrocher ? Et tant qu'à y être comment à tu choisi ce surnom pour ton site et es-ce ton ''handle'' sur ton cb ? Merci.
On installe des tuyau en plastique sur les points accrochent pour les fils. Le nom est une blague de pêcheur. Il y a des pêcheurs qui dissent des bananes sont mal chanceux
Only one question.. Why the heck was going on.. You got out of the 50, one exit away from where you got back On again...... Why all that detour for nothing. ???
Lachute is your hometown? How cool is that, my mother is from Lachute and I spent a couple of summers working at Lowe's Dairy and living with my grandparents who lived on Bethany right near Tessier where you turned. I have not been there in many years - it is almost unrecognizable now. :) Thanks for taking the time to make videos about heavy haul. They are entertaining and informative. Cheers!
Was looking for a heavy haul oversized life skill. Unfortunately I get a mundane Canadian gentleman turn left or right ....oh well as talented as a box of rice.
All that trouble for only one exit. High loads are a pain sometimes ! Good job there. Made me smile, I just finish 5 months at Lavigne (CFP) for my double DEP. :)
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 thanks ! I've done some oversize, but no super loads. Air handling units in NYC at night, some military stuff, construction vehicles. Didn't want to do that on a regular basis because you know when you have to leave, but never when you'll be back. I loved it though. It always felt special. But I've also been stuck 5 days in the back of a small Staples in a subburb of Boston waiting for the Police escort's permit to do 1 mile inside the main city. Lol I enjoy your videos, reminds me of good times. Nowadays, when I feel the blues of the road, I just jump on American Trucker Simulator and it sustain me for a while. 😆
My late wife was from north of Brownsburg/Dalesville and her and all the brothers and sisters all went to LRHS. I spent lots of time in Lachute over the years. Another great video!!
I have broken many trailers over the years. Some were just unfortunate that age caught up with the equipment and the metal couldn’t support the weight anymore. Others were admittedly because the equipment was loaded over capacity. You get a lot of that in this business
i knew that looked familiar! we always take that route to bypass montreal when travelling between ontario and new brunswick with our travel trailer. Hawlesbury, Lachute, St Jerome, Jolliette and then the ferry. we have spent the night near mirabel several times
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 it keeps us off the main highways! St Lin is a nasty spot though. the ferry at sorel tracy is a nice break, the best way to cross the river
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 quebec is famous for that, you really have to watch for those even with a travel trailer thats only 8-6 wide. then there is that intersection, right by the historic site. keeps life interesting for sure!
Other than those pesky wires, thanks to your excellent editing, this was another enjoyable ride-along with you. Thank you for sharing.
Hey Lucky my hats off to all truckers and you keep up the great videos you do and keep the greasy side down and keep rolling 10-4
10-4 ✌️

soooo much trouble to go from the 50 back to the 50 because of height issues o.o great job ❤❤ stay safe on the road!
Good to see you posting more often!

school bring back good memories hopefully ty 4 the ride along
Hi Doug , greeting’s from Gore Qc ,wish i had been in Lachute when you passed trough would have like to see you
I still have roots around Lachute. I get there often enough!
I was actually on the Gore fire team for a period of time!
Wo c’était juste une virée pour le fun?!! Vous auriez été capable de faire le drive thru Tim Horthons au coin de la maine avec cette équipe là😂 Good job guys!

Beau vidéo.. impressionnant

If there wasn’t a border crossing I wouldn’t think I was driving in the next town over
We are not so different!

@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 "Copy" vs "Recu" (the "c" has a scribble under it). 😉
Why is the front pilot car so far ahead???
What happens when you break a wire?
We need to make an accident report and if the owner wants they can make an insurance claim
Sounds like ur lead has a bad ground on his antenna.
We weren’t stopping to fix it 🤣
How do you like the automatic transmission?
Don’t get me wrong the automatic proved capable of getting the job done but I still prefer manual

The overpass on the 50 wasn’t high enough
I always wanted to poke you by saying you drive slower than a grandma, but here at 6:13 you’re left with the dust from grandma on a bicycle! 😂
🤣🤣🤣 true story 🤷🏼♂️
A beautiful day for a drive through the countryside
hi neighbor been living in st colomban for over 30 years and been driving otr for about 27 years ,keep up the good work driver banana

One of my first trucking jobs was driving the refrigerated truck delivering ice cream for Lowe’s Dairy 😊 small world
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 did you get to eat the damaged containers?
@kenhofer8063 that’s why I quit. I was getting fat 🤣
Another great video. Greetings from the UK again.

LRHS is where i went to school. Along time ago.
Wow! Really small world!
All that trouble for only one exit. High loads are a pain sometimes ! Good job there.
Made me smile, I just finish 5 months at Lavigne (CFP) for my double DEP. :)
I got into this business to do the pain loads 😏
Congratulations on your DEP!
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 thanks !

these wires are supposed to be up already. Sloppy electrical department in this city.
It is very common to get wires at 15’ in the northeast. Quebec, New York, Pennsylvania all typically only put wires at 15’
My late wife was from north of Brownsburg/Dalesville and her and all the brothers and sisters all went to LRHS. I spent lots of time in Lachute over the years. Another great video!!
I probably know some of her family. It’s a small world ✌️
Saw a video where another truckers lowboy snapped, He was transporting a giant battery 70,000 lbs.
I have broken many trailers over the years. Some were just unfortunate that age caught up with the equipment and the metal couldn’t support the weight anymore. Others were admittedly because the equipment was loaded over capacity. You get a lot of that in this business
Why can't they do those poles be higher? 30cm up will be fine I guess... Bonne travail, monsieur, comme toujours!
If the wires were higher they would just have me trying to move higher loads 🤣
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 😄😄😄 good one. Take care!
HI TO ALL
trip down memory lane!
Literally 🤣

@stevem268 St Lin is where I live now 🤣. The town with the telephone poles in the street 🤣

That's the Western Star you're driving.
