Most of my 65 years on this planet Hunter, 3 things come to my mind when Expletives happen. 1-Murphy's Law what can happen will happen, 2-This too shall pass, 3-If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Maybe I can speak for all of your fans, we are happy to know your talents get you out of a bind every time we watch your videos. We learn something new every day, don't we? Keep on being you and we will keep on watching.
50 years and came to say the same. You gained a new subscriber ;-)
Love it M8 why do they call it Murphy's law?
Might be the funniest first 15 seconds of a video ive ever seen.
@@xxinsanitybomer4620 You should ask Google. The Dictionary definition says: a supposed law of nature, expressed in various humorous popular sayings, to the effect that anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
Do I know it's impossible for all RUclipsrs to know each other but I thought you might know Gentry and sons you're pretty well going right by him you're pretty close I believe he could have helped you out,, just walking around videos seems like a pretty good feeling,, keep up the good work bro I enjoy seeing young men who can get out and travel across this nation with nothing but determination and their know how,, I'm pushing 70 and I believe we're losing young men like this fast,, God bless you and continue having fun and continue the video
The very fist shot of the tire rolling out the window killed me 😂
Straight out of comedy movies 🤣
Edit : just finished watched and that stub truck rolling away shot is comedic too lol
@@YusssoM or 'final destination'
Jesus, take the wheel😂😂 wait no not that wheel 😮😮
Been there but it was my right front and the tire was still on the rim. Scary! LOL
Your attitude in the face of persistent adversity is amazing. Keep it up!
"That's my tire..." Holy crap that was funny.
Your trips sound about like mine. I’ve got lots of similar stories to swap sometime. On way back from buying an excavator 2hrs from my house I smelled diesel, stopped and looked and saw fuel shooting out of my fuel primer pump, bottom of paper gasket seal blew and was spewing it everywhere. Was by a golf course and tried to ask if anyone had back of steno pad or something to use but no luck, ended up using a leather glove, traced the gasket outline, cut it out with a pocket knife and installed it. Didn’t leak a drop and it’s still installed that way many trips later.
If it ain’t broke don’t fix it, when it breaks, fix it up and keep trucking.
Love the content, keep it coming.
😊
The thought of someone going around a golf course to borrow a glove to make a gasket is so funny, glad it worked that’ll be one I store in my brain for emergencies
I never thought about using leather for a gasket, but thinking about it, that's a great idea! 👍 🤔 😳
After getting stuck on that corner so many times you think it would definitely be worth the cost of for a load of gravel to widen that turn 😉
“Hey hunter watch the end of the trailer there” *completely misses ramp* 😂😂 25:44
Always a good day when Hunter uploads
OMG Love the sound of that cat. That growl, black smoke, whistle, tires spinning. So cool!
What people don't understand-- who haven't been on these long trips: This country is MASSIVE
Now imagine a country the same size but with a fraction of the population. Welcome to Australia ahah. I just drove from the bottom to the top and back again.
@@JC-zg4xe Yeah. but yours is mostly desert. Our country is filled with lush lands that are full of life and growing crops that feed the world; with rivers and lakes everywhere and endless farmland and rolling hills and mountain tops and everything in between. Australia is not a country-- It's a continent of desert with a few cities on the shoreline. lol
Hell of a trip Hunter. Glad ya made it.
Road fixes are the best !! Nice work, got her back moving, again and again!!😂
Love the content sorry for your trouble. Greetings from Dublin Ireland
Well it was tough Hunter ,but you did it man. You adapted and overcame fine job. I wish you well in your new place and thanks for taking us along 👍
It's amazing to see the behind-the-scenes of such a long haul. Your dedication to getting the job done, no matter the conditions, is commendable! 💪
Not a sketchy load at all, love this haha
Its fake there are so many DOT violations he would have never made it through all those states without a trooper pulling him over.
Perseverance…….ingenuity…intestinal fortitude……courage…..all the words that come to mind when I watched your content. Well done, I’m impressed.
Just a thought, in case of all of them are pretty old lines, maybe get rest of them new too🤷🏼♂️
Attempting to weld the injector line was worth the attempt! Good on you for giving it a shot. And that drip would probably have gotten worse with time. The fact that you were able to weld it enough to make it that far was impressive!
it’s been a month man this is the only guy I genuinely enjoy watching his way of making vids and just all around a great guy I hope this isn’t the last vid from the legend goodrich
As when u was broke down it would of been nice for Heavy D to fly his helicopter in with the part u need. U went out of your way many times for him.
I don’t think he’s the kind of guy that does something unless it works out well for him. Idk but that seems like a good idea of how he really is!
Still shocked that tire came off the rim while driving 😂 glad you made it home safe
Jeezus you were giving me PTSD flashbacks from when I owned a 1974 Freightliner that was 13 yo when I bought it. Good truck, but it was 13 yo and I was always broke living load to load. Old Maude was tired and broke down A LOT. Never in a good place, either. Learned how to slither up inside to do engine repairs without tilting the cab because that was a nightmare unloading everything not tied down. Didn't have a portable wire welder, those weren't around back then, but it wasn't hard to sniff out a local welding shop to do some creative stuff.
Good luck and spend a few bucks on some base material for that corner.
great video Hunter ,you seem to be able to solve your problems without too much hassle ...but what a trip....happy you got there safe and sound
The stuff you get to work out for ya stresses me the heck out and I’m all here for it. Lol
Wow, I bet not too many people could have pulled that move off. Great to see you use your skills to solve problems as they come up. Keep making videos, there are some of us who look forward to them.
Not having diesel going to a cylinder will not give the upper cylinder lubrication and kill the piston and liners. It will happen very quickly.
Glad you made it home safe and sound. That was a rough trip.
Pretty good going considering how much you were hauling by yourself 👍
Crazy trip man. Welding that fitting at gas stations had me laughing pretty good. Epic load. Not sure that would pass MTO inspection up here in Canada lol.
Your persistence and most importantly, attitude always pays big dividends. I knew that you would have a few issues, anyone would, but you managed to overcome them all, no sweat. Looking forward to seeing you fix up the daily. I forget if you mention it or not, but are just going to launch the bed and just toss on a flatbed instead?
So glad your posting content I really enjoy watching your. Channel all the way from Australia
The fact that hunter lost a tire had time to get his phone n record only tells u how long that tire was rolling .......damn
Turned out the best though
What an adventure thanks for sharing
My Man Hunter, I'm sorry that I'm late. Now that was fucking exciting. First the tire rolling off, then the blowout, the injector problems, it scares me sometimes that you travel alone. But how you solve all the problem so sensibly is admirable. That is another reason I love your channel, see, it's not just waiting on that flash of skin. lol Your brilliant. When you say your lucky, your are indeed Hunter, your living "your dream". I also want to mention I really enjoy your editing and camera work on this. Some of those shots with the sun behind you are amazing. The shots out the cab window are priceless. I think that old ford girl really loves you and did her best to bring all your belongings home. Stub was so excited to be home he almost jumped right off that damn trailer. Again we all have to give you high praise for getting that massive load finally home. Hunter I'm happy you got all your possessions and toys home safe and sound. Love and Peace.
Just watched my first Hunter Goodrich video. Seems like a pretty 😎 channel. I subbed to your channel.
Hunter , I respect the hustle my friend !!! I’m dying to see you get settled in and start building and creating and repairing stuff. Thanks Hunter. I enjoyed this crazy trip
You're crazy Hunter! I'm glad you're home with that load though!
Simply unbelievable!
well, nobody can say you aren't tenacious!
Congrats Hunter - glad they let you weld outside the drive through like that - and didn't get run over.
A bit of a Haggard Garage of trucking here, and I love it.
just weld it more man!
Hunter your amazing. You take the cards your givin, and you keep going no matter what. Not giving up, you figure it out and keep pushing forward. You’re an inspiration for the next generations 👍🏼
If you dismount the tire roll the rim on flat ground. If it steers left or right its junk.
I don't think that I've ever seen someone as patience and determined as you. I'd of lost my shit in the first 5 minutes and then said fuck this I'm done 😂👍🇨🇦🔧
That stretch of interstate at the North Carolina/Tennessee line is my favorite part of that drive between Ashville and Knoxville. Such fun, twisty roads. At least in a car. In a semi, I'm sure they are insanely irritating.
Best video I've seen all month on RUclips
Literally just got to 1m50s was about to say alloy wheels corrode check your tyres… and wheel nuts. Here in england we have to show we’ve checked wheel nuts every week to our government body. Ive never had alloys on a truck before.
All that and you still had a smile on your face. That's awesome
Dude that was a sick video! You’re a pretty intuitive guy!
Sorry we weren’t able to help you out and find you a fuel line buddy. Was good meeting you though.
Dude, awesome video. I was so eager for part 2. Can't wait to see some projects
to fix the fuel line when the line itself snapped instead of the fitting, I'd get a 1/4 steel coupler or whatever is closest to the line diameter, and then use a 1/4 npt die to thread both ends of the fuel line. and then 3 rolls of teflon tape lol. I highly doubt that would leak, but as far as it breaking again in 10 miles who knows. do the lines have a special heat treatment? seems like the welding made them brittle, not that you really had any other options though... love seeing the ingenuity and self reliance. keep it up.
Teflon tape does not seal nor was it meant to.
And Teflon seal a diesel fitting and get back at me.
The tape literally will disintegrate and get sucked in
Aww man, it will sound so good with some dual straight pipes, man I love those inline 6 single turbo cats🤩
As old Marisa Tomei once said when you're down south in the mud and you don't have a limited slip one tire spins the other does bupkis😂😂😂
'content corner' should b the name of that turn.
"A creative load" - i couldn't have phrased it better! 🤣🍻 (i'm commenting, as i watch - currently 7:44)
A liked that one myself bro😅
I could have been a little more angry if I had been on that trip when it comes to lemon after lemon.😂👍
That man nerves are made of steel.
Without clamps on the injector lines you will break a line every couple thousand miles.
Whenever you're creating any structure that should resist shear (like those metal bars securing your pickup), always try to create triangles in each plane.
6:05 Hunter, that’s my 7-11 in Springville! I met you when you helped Dave get rid of a bunch of Datsun Zs.
Your patience is commendable.
I sang “Time to do some sketchy sh1t” many times during this episode😂😂😂
Yooooo 12 seconds in and "that's my tires"!!! I had to stop the video and get me some popcorn 🍿!!! I knew this one was gonna be GOOD!!! 😂😂
Hunter
I appreciate your get r done attitude!
49 seconds in and I'm thinking a pre trip inspection was skipped 😂
lol yeah they don’t care about that kinda thing!
Did it start today? Yup! Pre trip complete.
My brother started his trucker life, with a ford like yours. Had the some problems. Good attitude
*Some backyard neighbors installing tires in a rush
Hunter: How in the heck?????!?!?? Hahhaha
Goin out on ur own struggling by urself u have the strength to make it successs will b urs,🙏🙏🙏
Watching from KENYA 🇰🇪 EAST AFRICA.good job bro!
Me and you have very similar luck, that's why i started shipping stuff I buy online states away instead of getting it myself. I have newer and older trucks/trailers and haven't had much luck. The way I decide and convince myself to just ship stuff is just "pay 1000$ to ship a pickup truck from texas to my state, or drive there spend nearly that in fuel back and forth. Hope nothing breaks or don't lose a tire otherwise that would already put my costs higher then shipping and staying home." I know your situation here was much different so paying someone to ship all that wouldn't have been worth it. It's nice/sucks to see someone with terrible luck waiting for the days of some good luck such as myself LOL!
God bless u man he has surely bless u with drive and dedication
Dude 3 extra loads of gravel woulda saved you so much time and effort on that corner lol
Keep up the up loads love seeing how you just get it done
Hello there bud. Hope all is well ✌️👍🙏🙏
Nicely done Hunter !
Talk about MacGyver you are the MacGyver of all times. You have a very creative and knowledgeable mind Hunter. Bravo on your part brother
Hunter and I have the same kinda luck - I've had to repeat to myself over and over and over "when the wind fails, we go to the oars".
My man….you give me anxiety….
Welcome Home!
✌️~~~~>Oregon
Should check out SH Tube in Corbin, Kentucky they do some amazing custom built stuff for big rigs!
Keep posting, really enjoy the content.
Damn, you have the worst luck Hunter!
Keep on keeping on hunter life will test your shit to point of no return so keep creativity 😅😅😅
I had a cat b model that had the same problem breaking lines, to solve it you need to get an arrangement diagram of all the injector line brackets and mounts, it is vibration that breaks them and one missing bracket will let the lines vibrate and that is what causes the failure.
Illinois is where Cat manufactures a lot of stuff, probably would have been able to find a fuel line with less lead time here
Tough luck! Still looks like a solid rig and a trailer full of fun!
*Tire has left the chat*
A few Rig fixer upper videos won't do any harm. Love the cabover videos.
That injector line, after you welded and tested it, you can see fuel vapour leaking, before it blew again
You have a great attitude. I swear things like this happen to any project I work on. Not to this scale though lol. Love the channel!!
I have been looking forward to this.
Holy shit gretta , look at that lovely black smoke.
I thought that was my tire! It came off my car in Wyoming and my car is still there! A month later.
Hunter, you're a mighty, hard-working young man, mister ...
You keep that ford clean
Dang. I feel like I’m reading a Novel that I don’t want to end. Only half way through but Keep on Trunkin as Jerry wld say
New to the channel here, really enjoying the sketchiness, but why is the exhaust just side dumping 😂 there has to be an old stack laying somewhere 😂
This was a crazy adventure. I have noticed in the other trucking videos zero outside rolling shots. May I suggest a few gopros? One facing the trailer for some truck stop and in town maneuvering and one in cab of you rowing gears. Would make for some cool b roll and would feel more connected to the adventure.
Hey hunter will you ever restore your cabover? I feel like it'd be a fun series just like Deboss with their cabovers! Maybe not as far as getting it to an immaculate condition but just restoring on the mechanical part of it, and rejuvenation on the cosmetic part of it. I'd like to see your cabover as being dependable one day without any major mechanical problem 😂
16 MPH on the HWY is insane.
