Lovely ride along. I watch several of you truckers and each is a delightful way to have my morning quiet time. I can feel the love and respect you share. Thank you.
Ah, the memories... US-HWY6 is remarkable. It starts (in my view) in Bishop, CA, and goes all the way across the Fruited Plains to the peninsula of Massachusetts. Incredible! Nifty video indeed. As always, travel safely...✌🏼
Curios what them alarms or weired noises are when going down hill? Is it something to do with the downgrade or jake brakes? Thought maybe you would have explained. Great videos guys!!!! I don’t miss a video ever..
First let me commend you both for the straightforward approach to getting from one load to the next on time and yawl certainly have your share of bumps and tight spots to work thru. my father drove truck for most his life it was humbling as kid seeing my dad back his rig into docks so tight he had to crawl out the window to get out and get loaded. I have respect for your professionalism, keep the shiny side up and greasy side down be safe. Keep on truckin/ Colorado trip cool wished it would have been a brighter day good videography Tanya

The town of Dillion used to be in the middle of the lake until the dam was built. Some buildings were moved to where Dillion is at now and they also moved the cemetery to the east of the lake. Other buildings were just bull dozed before the dam was filled with water. Some great history there.
My cousin and I bought 2 x 2388 inter combine harvesters at Flagler on I 70 from the international dealer they were ex rental fleet machines and they were shipped thru to Brisbane Australia then to farm at Narrabri...Have fun on I 70
i drive the 70 from the 15 to the 25 about once a week...i like to stop at grizzly creek by glenwood canyon...i took my sweety there when she came on a ride along...she loved it..try driving it at night....its crazy😮 dark.. especially going through the canyon...
My stomping grounds. I was going to join crete and was in the process but then I got a call to join warrior logistics for a fedex ground dedicated run from Denver to Beaver Utah. The fedex run pays about $1000 more per week then I would of made at the crete north platte walmart dedicated. The only negative is I live by north platte so now I have to drive 300 miles just to get to work every week. The money is worth it though.
Next 17:00-18:40 i call the narrows YEE HA. Not pushing another channel but RIDING SHOTGUN A nice drive through the Rockies. NOT. Three years ago still makes creasemarks in my seat when i watch it Kevin just looks sooooo calm.. Just got wonder whays going through his mind. See you on the next one
Hello fellow trucker! Do you find it easier with the Automatic on the downgrade I never drove an Automatic and I was curious about how it would handle that? Keep on trucking and thank you for sharing your journey
Ok you two, more trivia. I 70 pretty much follows old US 6 through western Colorado. When ever you see maybe a frontage road west of Vail that is 6. Westbound Vail Pass follows the old road bed.
Hubby drives this road every day. Only he has to go OVER Loveland Pass since he hauls fuel. Or I like to say, he hauls a bomb😳😬Beautiful views, but hate the skier traffic.
Yup skiers and then camper season. Thank your husband for me for hauling fuel for us on the Western Slope. Like Kevin and Tanya " if you got it, a truck brought it"!!!
Yeah I got my CDL not too long ago .. I don’t mind driving out on the road but I want to find somewhere local .. people say that hauling fuel is a great way to drive locally.. but I say what you say “I don’t want to be driving around “hauling a bomb” everywhere “ 😂 I like to think I’m a very safe driver but the thing is other people’s driving.. they can cause that “Bomb” to go off too 😂God be with your husband.. you guys stay safe❤
Watching todays episode. It would be more interesting if you would tell us what is happing. What speed your going, what gear your using. Jack brake ? Look out for the black ice..
Hi there! Thanks for pointing that out. So sorry that they aren't available for you. I just looked everything over. RUclips should be doing their automated creation of the captions. Not sure why not for these last couple videos. There is very little talking and no music, and they are long. So it could be related to that. Because here is what I found in my research: If your video doesn't generate automatic captions, it could be due to one or more of the following reasons: The captions aren't available yet due to processing complex audio in the video. Automatic captions don't support the language in the video. The video is too long. The video has poor sound quality or RUclips doesn't recognize the speech. There’s a long period of silence at the beginning of the video. There are multiple speakers whose speech overlaps or multiple languages at the same time. So please hang in there! Hopefully the next video will have them again. In the meantime, just to let you know, these videos we had for "purists" who wanted to hear the road and engine noise. Not a lot of commentary or jokes, etc. We'll be back to our more normal format soon!!
Oh yeh, careful of those pot holes, road heaves and basic wear. Our tax dollars do not go toward these roads. Sorry. And I saw in this video a Maverik tanker passed you! I checked with hubby and that was his truck😄! Small world ☺️
Good question! The truck won’t keep idling past a few minutes. At night we set up the auto start that comes on if batteries run low. It’s also needed for air conditioner. It’s a pain coming on and off as the temperature drops and rises. In the winter we use the space heater. Don’t need to idle for that. And generally the auto start isn’t needed then. More peaceful sleep. 😁
Ah yes, Vail Pass, west side. Gotta be careful in the winter. Wild ride
For sure! Thanks for watching!

My wife and I stopped at that same pull-off in Frisco, CO, but it was back in about 2008 or 2009. Beautiful area!!!
I typed in "The Joy of Cooking", expecting some recipes and got some awesome scenery instead.
😆😆😆👍👍👍

Hi so nice nature and drive in and its good when sun and ice it is Greetings from gost Sweden
Great ride and great video. You two do a great job.
Hear the engine on a fleet spec’d truck haha. Just messing but it is funny.
i drive the 70 from the 15 to the 25 about once a week...i like to stop at grizzly creek by glenwood canyon...i took my sweety there when she came on a ride along...she loved it..try driving it at night....its crazy😮 dark.. especially going through the canyon...
You got a listen to Bob Seger‘s turn the page. The whole live bullet album recorded 1975 in Detroit it’s awesome. It’s a truckers LP.
My stomping grounds. I was going to join crete and was in the process but then I got a call to join warrior logistics for a fedex ground dedicated run from Denver to Beaver Utah. The fedex run pays about $1000 more per week then I would of made at the crete north platte walmart dedicated. The only negative is I live by north platte so now I have to drive 300 miles just to get to work every week. The money is worth it though.
Happy you found something that works well for you!
Love the mountain drives. Really steep downgrades.
hi from canada
Next 17:00-18:40 i call the narrows
YEE HA. Not pushing another channel but RIDING SHOTGUN A nice drive through the Rockies. NOT. Three years ago still makes creasemarks in my seat when i watch it
Kevin just looks sooooo calm..
Just got wonder whays going through his mind. See you on the next one
Hello fellow trucker!
Do you find it easier with the Automatic on the downgrade
I never drove an Automatic and I was curious about how it would handle that?
Keep on trucking and thank you for sharing your journey
Nice

Tell your husband thank you for driving and please stay safe. 🚛🏔️

Kevin has been driving the Cascadia for Crete for a while now. How does he like it compared to Kenny Riggs?
In Vail Colorado for less than one acre of land 0.81 acres $8,900,000.00 this is right up next the ski resort that's a little out of my price range 👍
Last two videos don't have caption. Would you check the settings for reason why? Thanks.

@@TheJoyofTrucking Thanks for checking into it. Safe travels!
I never drove a automatic. How many gear options do you have going down the mountain? Be safe love you videos❤
Oh yeh, careful of those pot holes, road heaves and basic wear. Our tax dollars do not go toward these roads. Sorry.
And I saw in this video a Maverik tanker passed you! I checked with hubby and that was his truck😄! Small world ☺️
With out a “apu” do you idle in the winter and summer!!
Good question! The truck won’t keep idling past a few minutes. At night we set up the auto start that comes on if batteries run low. It’s also needed for air conditioner. It’s a pain coming on and off as the temperature drops and rises.
In the winter we use the space heater. Don’t need to idle for that. And generally the auto start isn’t needed then. More peaceful sleep. 😁
Just curious, but why the need for two GPS's running
simultaneously??
