    Takes me back 15 years. One ferry from Sweden to Finland had you turn around on the ferry ramp, back down another ramp in the middle of the deck and then drive forward into your parking spot. And then reverse back from that spot and go up the ramp again to disembark.
    Could be quite the challenge - especially getting up again weighing in a 48 tonnes! 😂

    I was yelling at you don't go right, stay straight to lane 22.
    How long was the ferry ride?
    They will haul that cheap freight till they go broke.
    Stay safe

    Someone’s garbage is another man’s treasure. If the number are right can’t be mad if they are still afloat.

    We all know why there’s so many trucking companies that haul freight for cheap. And that ain’t never going to change.

    I'd like to ride that ferry. It's looks amazing. Super B's look scary to drive. You've been inspirational for me to go little to get back to healthy habits. Good for you for babbling about a very important thing called getting and staying healthy ❤

    I've been watching ya for years Josh. I grew up in Chilliwack BC, but now live in Golden BC as I'm starting work in training as a tow truck driver. I used to have to drive from Chilliwack to Richmond everyday as a traffic control person and that main highway 1 is a joke with tons of traffic at rush hour times. Great video, keep up the awesome content!

    Hey Josh just have been there mid May. Spent 3 weeks on the island with my wife and 4 days in Victoria. Nice to see that you'd got to see the same awesome scenery as well. The ferry ride from Swartz Bay to Tsawassen is just beautiful going through the small islands eh? Greetings from Southern Bavaria Germany.

  • @powerchairtrucker894
    @powerchairtrucker894 5 месяцев назад +1

    The next place you go to take a Louis Alaska but I’m not sure how many loads to go there specially from Keystone. I don’t hear him mentioning it too much, so I’m assuming they don’t have too much breathing on their so that may happen they may not happen yeah but it would certainly be a cool trip on the blog.

  • @JanesDough855

    Hi Josh, I would like to buy some Bullsnot products for my son-in-law. Which 4 or 5 or 6 would you most recommend? Like what one's are the most popular? Kind of like a starter kit to introduce the products to him.

    Id say since now your body as acclimated to walking, start throwing some jogging into your run, you will get more exercise faster. And pretty soon you just gunna be going for your jog and not a walk.

    How come you quit your Intermittent Fasting so quickly and abruptly, especially after expressing how easily you lost the first 6 pounds? Isn’t it worth addressing to your viewers that care about your weight and health?
