Sir, my husband asked me to write you for him. He really enjoys your videos, they help him feel better about himself. He was an OTR driver for 35 years. His career was ended when he fell and broke his neck and back. One of the trucks he drove was like yours except his upholstery was brown and his radio was in a different spot. Watching you with the way your camera is set makes him feel like he is behind the wheel driving again. This is wonderful therapy for him. We both want to thank you "for taking him along". We live in Washington State, 100 miles north of Spokane. God bless, be safe and enjoy the road.
Ma’am please tell your husband Thank You for keeping products on the shelves and keeping America strong for 35 years, tell him he is in the prayers of decent folk. Thank you both.❤
That’s a career to be proud of.
35 years that deserves respect and gratitude...an an tell your husband he is still a man an a man that likes good trucks an good video's
BOY I DONT MISS THOSE DAYS DRIVING IN WINTER WEATHER THANK GOD IM RETIRED LOVE THE CO PETE GOOD LUCK OUT THERE AND GOD BLESS
Bomb cyclone... scary name for a winter storm. Makes people watch The Weather Channel.
All about control . Do this do that
Was in a thunder snow storm on I -80 in the Pa. Mountains years back. I went the close as i could see the gaurd well with a 48 ft dump trailer and waited for someone to plow into the trailer.Thank good ness it never happend The white outs are common in these hills and not a joke
@@charlesroer972 Bingo.
Weather Channel gives you a keyhole view instead of opening a f****** door to see the whole picture
The joys of winter driving. If your diving slower because it’s slippery, we’ll that’s what ya got to do. This video brought some memories for sure. Sometimes ya just get no where fast. High sided trailer’s with little weight in them on an icy road with heavy winds always kept ya puckered up tightly. But after you drove through crap like that there was a sense of accomplishment. Drivers earn there keep in winter time. Loved the video FSC. We got a first hand look on what’s it like for an OTR driver. Well FSC have a great and a safe day, happy trails and happy motoring….

Awesome plow rig!
A trailer with rock salt and salt brine!
The driver calls up with his computer what he wants to put down.
Office manager reads the satellite weather and tells the driver suggestions. Or orders!
Glad to see you driving again with no problems, Steve.
Just discovered your channel this evening. Really enjoyed every minute of this trip with you very entertaining. Love seeing that 362 still out there working away. My dream rig is a 352. double sleeper with a 3406B. Great spending time with you be safe!!!!! A truckers life is never easy!
Good dream
Many love the 52 over 62 just for its little round headlights.
And yet believe it or not there's a little quirky group that has a loyalty to the 372 but we used to call the football helmet
I drove one of them 372's in my early careers back into early 90s for victory Express long before they were merged into US Express
@@truckerkevthepaidtourist I seriously can't believe that GoPro camera lasted more than 5 mins on that trailer in that extreme cold. I thought to would have ruined the whole camera.
@@itsjustme9318 no those high-end GoPros they're made for all weather all year round they've got a very durable shell. They test them and all kinds of extremes from insane heat to Arctic temperatures. The high-end ones are very rugged
The cheaper ones aren't like that but you ever watch like those things on RUclips or someone skiing down the mountain and it's their point of view they got to GoPro on top of their head in the freezing cold that's pretty much the kind of one I think Steve has to it's one of the high-end ones but when you're making videos like that sometimes the expense will pay for itself in the long run.
Difficult driving conditions most definitely, I'm from the UK, I was working in Iowa many years ago in similar conditions, rental cars don't give you much in winter emergency driving kit. It was 35 miles each way from hotel to the customer, bottle of water froze in centre console whilst driving every day over one weekend.
Great video Steve, and much kudos for helping Tim .
Thanks for sharing
I think the worst snow storm I remember was January 1985 in Saginaw Michigan Another good video Steve KEEP ON TRUCKIN 👍 🇺🇸 🚛 🐘 👏
I'm a lifelong Ohioan and the areas you drove through in this video are some of my favorite parts of Ohio. Even though you were driving through western Ohio and I live in eastern Ohio, A LOT of the state looks like it does in your vid when you get away from the big cities. It's not as interesting to drive through in weather like this, but during the summer you drive through these areas and see all kinds of old auto shops and garages and places like that with vintage cars and trucks parked around. Then you'll come to the small town center that is 150 years old and still looks just like a "frontier" town, just with modern cars parked all around instead of horses, and a modern gas station here and there. It's the USA as it used to be in "the good old days"...just a little more dilapidated than it was in its heyday.
I gotta say dude you have yourself one heck of a set up
Bet you are loving that green apu this winter!
Oh for sure! I absolutely love it
Worst white out I was in was hauling pick ups in Wyoming last winter. I counted 28 semi’s jack knifed and you couldn’t see past your hood at times. The DOT closed freeway and forced us all off in Cheyenne
Thank you for throwing your filters away no telling how many I’ve seen sitting next to the fuel pump 5ft from the trash can
Great video Steve really enjoy all the different camera angles as they lasted in the cold. Also enjoy the commentary stay safe and warm Steve.
Nicely done that filter change in those weather conditions ! 🥸🥸🥸
Love the changing perspectives during the trip. Top notch production values!
Just to let you know, I never froze up until I started buying Loves fuel. Even when I ran western Canada,-50.
Awesome video, that trip must have been exhausting, with the road conditions and driving a real truck where shifting is required unlike these new trucks. Thanks for taking me on your trip, happy safe trucking.
I hate when the roads get lumpy packed ice and snow that the plows and salt won't remove. Driving becomes a whole new challenge then. I feel your pain in the extreme cold it makes my bones ache.
Yesterday in a parking lot in North Dakota, the lot at a Flying J was so bad my fro t end would slide sideways straight line backing... That's how bac the ice was.
Retired truck driver and enjoying the ride 😎
Hey I’m so proud of you for going to Tim when your friend needs help. I pray that something good will turn out of this! I love watching y’all RUclips Sometimes I just want to come out of retirement !!! Stay safe!!!!
I used to go that way when they were redoing the bridges in Indiana. I put many a mile on a 362 double bunk. If I ever see ya I'll throw a wave.
You are great Man. Thank you to share your work with us. The world needs more people like you
Just to say this is fun the guys that deliver food to small businesses with a hand truck to 30 stops these are the guys working driving this truck is fun it work but not compared to what I did for 25 years he's working hard give me a break lmfao
Love your videos. Been driving 28 years started off in a cab over truck . But never went back East only 11 western . But love to watch old school trucker like yourself. Be safe and have a good one .
My father had and drove over 50 years. He started out in the 30s hauling nitro glycerin out of California deadman’s curve. He made a ton of money hauling that stuff. They didn’t have all the fancy stuff to make sure it didn’t explode, and if your brakes went out prepare to bail. He was making a grand a week way back then, which a incredible sum. He saved enough and started a trucking company himself
Man... You really gorilla armed those filters...💪
Glad ya made it, bet your glad you had your “Green APU” and changing filters in the cold sucks
Heck of a cross wind coming at you to .Next time you change your Fuel Filter use Wix or NAPA and your truck will love you.
Even the soccer moms like drifting in the snow! 😆
Buddy of mine ordered a new 362 in like 1999, he ordered an auxiliary floor heater. Had a unit behind the driver seat, mostly in the cubby hole that blew air forward from the factory
I like seeing the signs along the road. Especially the ones showing cities and State parks. Another thing, have you tried putting the hand warmer packets in your gloves? I get them at sporting good stores. Small ones are about 1inch by 2 inch. Just a thought. Stay warm!! Looks like a long winter!!
In NY....when a car goes in the ditch, the troopers check if they're OK, give them a ride and mark the vehicle as checked, then drag it out in the next clear day.
What’s funny is the f150 getting a free ride behind you. Nothing new there,blast the slush away the truck driver knows the way. Lmao
I had to work in the cold too over the Christmas holidays and I just laired up and took my time getting to where I needed to be granted the roads were no way like that here in Southeast Texas. I think it goes to show you that when the money is available, you clam up and don't use any excuses because you're going to find that the whole hysteria is not as bad as it seems if you use common sense and know when to get off the road or when you want to end your day before the road gets in that shape.
Steve, have you ever considered powering the Go-Pro's from the trucks accessories circuit. Hopefully it's possible.
Snow storms ain’t no joke this year, stay safe!
Oh my goodness, you started out in Edon, Ohio. I run Menards loads out of Holiday City which isn’t that far from there and I live in Hillsdale, Michigan which is about 30 minutes from that truck stop. I stop there all the time to get fuel. Maybe one of these days I’ll run into you either there or out on the road.
Sir, thank you for having fixed cameras. Those go pros with all the shaking is just making people nauseous.
I keep a gallon of diesel in my side box along with a siphon hose. If my tanks are full, I can submerge the filter inside my tanks to fill it.
Guess we'll see you on Ice road truckers next season...thanks for the coverage!
Good driver in bad weather...! 👍
I saw a sign for Valparaiso Indiana. That's where I live. Yes roads were bad I had to work the day before and the day after Christmas drove with my blinkers on impossible to see the edges of the road
I always slow down and check out the old trucks at that guy's place. Go by there everyday
24 is a Good route they recently switched some of the parts to an actual highway. You can make it across that as fast as 80.
I appreciate the old school trucker wave.
Had something similar on the 10 in Biloxi a down pour so intense you couldn't see 1 foot in front of you. Fortunately
you could barley see a sign with an arrow that said rest area. Stayed there for an hour along with 15 or so other trucks an rvs
Back in the day you used to be able to buy a rod that had a ratcheting mechanism on it that would go up or down similar to an old bumper jack but much smaller and it was used the set your idle or in some cases it was used as cruise control by some of the super truckers out there.
I remember them.
It's so amazing how many people drive with their full ways on that I'm passing you up and I also believe that tow truck should wait until after to get the cars off the road but they do it because they can charge a more
All flatland driving, do some rocky mountain runs during white-outs, would make it a lot more interesting.
Two stacks, one smoke trail 😂
Do Amish power slide buggy's in this conditions ?
😁
with enough effort they can (I think).
There's a video of a guy doing that yes they can do it
“Bomb Cyclone” is a meteorological nickname for Explosive Cyclogenesis, which is an actual phenomenon in meteorology. It’s the rapid deepening of an extratropical cyclonic low pressure area.
So why not call it that? Answer - it's not scary sounding enough. So they make up another word to frighten the public. Thus weaponizing weather.
@@fsctrucking well yes they definitely saw that nickname and knew it would help drive ratings, the 24 hour news cycle has ruined a lot of things.
@@Fitz710 or it’s because the correct terminology is just too complicated for the average person so they have a simpler way of putting it.
@@JohnHallgren I definitely think that’s part of it
@@fsctrucking Yeah they give winter storms human names like hurricanes. What BS.
It was cold as hell around Christmas. So far it’s been a mild January and we are ok with that!
gotta get you a Garmin Dezl man. it's saved my skin a few times it always goes the truck route. I never pay tolls except for NJ... those Jersey sob's lol
I bought an F450 from 2002 just to stay away from DEF. That crap is horrible to deal with in winter
I love driving cab over there good in snow
Hey how is your new year going. Man that wind looks like a really cold blast from hell and back but that's what makes it interesting stay safe and warm and keep up the great content
Love hearing that old CAT grawl down the road.
Thanks for taking us along
💥 Great Video Love Trucking ✅ Cameras Perfect💥
I live in Minnesota, and never heard of a bomb cyclone snowstorm before !! 🤔
Am I the only one that is thinking about the better and newer trucks we run over here in Europe…
And the lights in this truck 🫣he is almost running blind
I knew exactly where you were in Elkhart County changing filters. I really dig your truck, the cabover sleepers are my favorite. I am trying to find, and I'll pay a finders fee if need be, but the years for the International Eagle 9800 Condo Sleep Flat Floor Cabover I want is 97 98 99. The ole JB Hunt, Walmart, and others used them used in their fleet. The truck is not for hire so, it doesn't need to be perfect. I am going to paint and do the interior to my own liking. My only concern is runs engine and trans, and that it's able to be driven now when I buy. was born and raised in South bend, IN, 40 yrs, and I worked over there in the RV capital of the world. All my family is still there but 6 yrs ago I moved to Asheville, NC, Smoky/Blue Ridge Mountain. That weather wasn't too bad for the people that live there. We are used to it and drive like notta going on, just another day. South bend, IN, there is one of the top 10 snowiest cities in the US, lake effect is bad on a regular.
Greetings from Iowa County, WI
Nice took me back. But a 7 hour dead head anyways stay safe.
Badass thumbnail Steve, keep rollin
If you are ever over the Elkhart,Goshen area I live that way. I'd treat you to lunch.
I just noticed that you only have 1 stack hooked up.
Been through a couple of whiteouts like you’re describing in NY. Not fun. Also got into a small tornado in Florida with similar visibility and had to stop right in the middle of I75. When visibility cleared, there were 2 trucks and a car stopped right in front of me. If I’d kept going, I’d have hit them. It’s hard to know in those situations exactly what to do.
Orwell seems to roll some decent coal at -4
filter change was insane dude yur hardcore oldschool
Godspeed driver
Damn that twin pipe action would have been great but in due time you will have the other set of stacks fixed. Be safe out their, being out in the cold with windchill suck.. your hands freeze so much faster then in normal cold. Feel like a freezer.
I didn't know a truck would start on anti gel wow
Steve: Love your channel, BUT, it might just be time to start thinking about investing in a new drivers seat. Cheers!
I would expect the toll roads to be better plowed and sanded as needed, compared to other routes. 👍
Yes. One would expect. But driving the toll road the next day proves that inaccurate.
light no tc = respect
Guy has a Cabover. My respect.
Be careful out there!!
Was that the same chevy p/u that was behind you
@43:21, if you are that terrified park the fucking thing. @54:15 another one!
What kind of GPS do you have. I have mase just wondering. Reply please. Thank you
Great video! Out of curiosity, what weather app are you using on your phone? I see you're using Waze for traffic/navigation.
Hi Sir when you gonna fix exhoust get both stacks working ? Thanks for your greate uploads Keep on Trucking
whyisur left stack blowing black smoke and the right doesn't? leaky injector?
What's the speed limit on 20?? There and how fast where going with them conditions??? Want to know. I'm new driver
I always always wanted to be a truck driver but i never did it because of the weather and the cost of going to school im 37 now and i think its a little late for that now
Stress,stress and more stress. Leads to a shorter life.
Being broke sucks more. Leads to an even more shorter life.
@@fsctrucking: So, so true. 👍
David smiths beautiful stretched out Volvo you passed. I promise it looks damn good cleaned up.
Still there's no name found for Orwell's trailer? I vote for Daisy.
I'm from route 20 east in Marlborough Massachusetts. I'd like Old school trucks. And I bet you're not a Bonehead trucker 😂😂. Good job Man.👍👍
A gallon of gasoline per 100 gallons of diesel and you might not need to change fuel filters in the weather conditions you are in ! 🤔
To drive through Pennsylvania I will take I 80; to drive to Ohio white going towards Chicago or Wisconsin I would take I 76 to 77 to State Route 30 all the way to Fort Wayne and go from Goshen Indiana to Chicago then jump back out on 80 or 9480
Was that James pretty place with all the cabovers
No. He's down south I think.
Live in nw ohio right next to the ohio In swanton ohio that 48 vehicle pile was terrible. It's always better to run 2 or 20 or route 6 across ohio if the weather is crazy
So in other words, the travel bans failed to prevent crashes....
@@fsctrucking that is correct sir. Keep on truckin never mind them breaks. Love your content
Seeing stuff like this reminds me as much I like driving local in the south compared to OTR it has issues but not stuff like that... when it does that we park it
I don't get paid parked.
@@fsctrucking I used to do it and I understand that I don’t get paid parked ether but thankfully we don’t get that stuff down here very often the way describe it to people is that a city the size of Little Rock up there probably has more stuff to deal with winter weather than the entire state of Arkansas combined
🍭SWEET🍭👍🏼
What Bomb Cyclone?
Comment se fait il que les commentaire,soit en anglais ou americain ,mais non en francais, comme je regarde souvent les films, que vous diffuser ,mais je ne parle pas un mot d'anglais ni quoi que se soit, alors soyer poli et écrive les textes et commentaire en francais , merci a toutes et à tous
