In the Burger King in Kayenta, AZ, at 48:06 there is a wonderful display of artifacts about the Navajo code talkers. The Navajo radio operators communicated in encoded Navajo language during World War II in which the Japanese could not decipher.
I used sticky notes and stick them on the steering wheel. A short pencil is better than a long memory.
Love the vids, MMM.
Keep up the great work. 👍👍
Global cooling air moved down from the frozen arctic and showered a couple of days here in Oregon, putting the wildfires out. Spectacular view there in Utah.
Hi Mike, there called sticky notes we old people use em all the time, just label it "tandems move" and put it on the steering wheel, great timing on the scales, razzle-dazzle the weighmaster, thanks for the video, take care.............................see ya
Hello, I just came across your video early this morning. I am a previous truck driver and I sure do miss it. Riding Shotgun is the closest I've come to being in a truck in over 3 years. I immediately subscribed to your channel and to receive your video alerts. Thank you in advance for these videos, you have no idea what this has done for me.
Great job, Mike.
Thanks for the ride along.
To quote Ned Dunn , “Of all the things I’ve lost, I miss my mind the most”!
Very interesting going through Mohab since never been there. Thanks for the nice ride.
Hey Mike. Glad to see you again. PEACE!
Hi mate, woody here from Queensland Australia, not checked in with you for a while, you drive your roads, i drive mine, driving to enjoy.
So glad the prices of lumber has come down. If not yet used, I would have taken the material I bought at $600.00 back to store, then re-purchased it at the lower price. Wow what a huge difference. I loved riding shotgun. You see some beautiful scenery. Good luck with your new home. It sounds like it will be beautiful when your done building & painting.
Mike love your banter,keep up you the good work, you the best!
On of the best awesome videos from riding shotgun 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Higher quality appreciate ⚡⚡⚡
id like to see what the inside of your truck looks like ...
Tonight’s news Feds looking to change how truckers are overly delayed while waiting to be unloaded. They said a change in regulations is needed to protect the truckers from being miss treated and causing E-log scheduling. Federal Gov. said they have received a mountain of complaints from truckers and trucking companies. This is about time! I wonder? This should be very interesting 😁🇨🇦 Michigan
You got by twice I wouldn't try a third time. Strike 3 you're out! Ha ha
Phoenix. My neck of the woods.
Damn, there are a lot of tire tracks left around the 12 minute mark, there must have been a pile up there a while back.
The problem is that you record short videos.
and your videos are awesome ⚡
The guy is probably from Oklahoma that's the way they drive around here
💪💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸
Ouch $220 a month
What that graffiti say? 🤣🤣🤣
Where’s all your peeps 😔1 is the loneliest number
You have ADHD like me, you start one project, then before you get that done, you start a new project?
Nah old age
I'd like to tell Uncle Joe to take a flying leap at a rolling truck tire
You wouldn't have the issues you have with drivers here in Europe as it's illegal to pass cars from other lanes except the outer ( fast) lane. In the US it's crazy the way some cars are going 60mph in the far left lane and others doing 70 or 80 in the middle and far right lanes weaving over in and out of other lanes when they see an empty spot.
I wish the slower drivers would get out of the fast lanes, here in Chicago, the trucks are in the third lane. People enter the expressway and go right over to the third lane and crawl.
Utah is just beautiful. Stunning scenery.
Clear blue skies with the occasional set of whitish puffy clouds and there was me taking my time, videoing the scene when this big truck comes barrelling down on top of me , so what happens I continue doing what I set out to do and he passes me the first chance he gets and powers off onto the distance. Yeah some truckers have no sense that we motorists, driving aimlessly taking in the scenes enjoy slower driving but then as the truck passed me I noted it was good old Mike the Mountain Man, so knew as soon as I reached home, there would be a video showing my actions and his disappointment that tourists drive so slow.
Incidentally Mike I'm still at home in Scotland so in theory it may have been me but probably wasn't - just passing time. Cheers Mate.
Atholl, dont you know by now that whenever you are about just putt,putting along Mike is going to be there pushing you along. Dont forget to wave at Mike the choked chicken as he flies by just trying to make a livn..HA
30:07 into the show Mike that guy is going too slow Mike, Mike whew just in time. Wonder what he thought when he saw nothing but blue with a silver bumper guard. My right leg is still shaking. Just couldn't push it through the floor hard enough. You see, folks, thats what you get when you RIDE SHOTGUN and you take your job seriously.
Exactly. Garages are for cars and tools. Nothing else.
Hey everyone, i just donated and if we all did just a little, just imagine how people will be impacted.. Good job Mike for pushing this along. Ok now i'm ready for more, oh and by the way where is Mike the Choked Chicken? the whole world wonders
That’s how my truck moves 0 to 60 in 15 min might take longer at times ... might be I’m just a slow poke , whatever you do don’t get behind me when your on the road .and than once in a blue moon I get behind someone who drives slower than me 😮 ... Lov watching your travels and listening to your chats .
The price of diesel we will all be sipping soon.
If I ran my business like the governmet runs theirs, I'd be in prison for embezlement. $0.75/gal tax! With all the gas and diesel being burned, what are they doing with the money? (rhetorical question - we know what they're doing with it). Toll roads, ha! They probably collect just enough in tolls to pay the toll collector.
Thanks for posting these videos. I sure needed to get away for awhile and your videos help more than you ever know. Safe and happy travels to you.
I lived in Cortez, CO for 4 years. Traveled all over that region, Blanding, Moab, Monticello, etc. Miss the area. Brings back wonderful memories. Thanks for posting this Mile.
I’m glad you did do filming. I missed riding shotgun.
Also,, where is that miserable chicken?
Buck Fiden and his party Tax and Spend and oppress the people. You area lucky man! lol
Great video Mike , so nice and clear out. I love looking at the pretty scenery. Safe travels. ✌😀
Call me
Hi Mike: interesting story about your shed, is a 4x12 or 3x12 enough slope to handle the winter snow fall in Colorado? Seems as if you have a heavy snow and don’t clear it you may have issues with too much weight on the roof? I guess since you live there you would know? Nice video enjoyed, thank you.
I was on the exact the same route just before you started except that I left GJ on Sunday evening rolled into Tucson early Monday morning.
Hey man wondered where you bean, but you explained that you had problems with your thermostat, and it was a pain in the butt!
I think you may have installed it wrongly.
🤣😅🤣😆🤣😅😅
Do use a video of what your working on. Love all of your videos.
Hey Mike, is Quality ever gonna give you a new Volvo? I might have missed the story, my memory ain't what used to be. Thanks for the video.
It's not "Joe Biden's inflation ". (I'm not a fan, so please don't come at me)The shutdowns caused a recession & inflation always follows. The shutdowns & subsequent loss of employees have also contributed to severe supply chain issues. Many different things have contributed to the hyperinflation we are experiencing. One of the reasons is the lack of Truckers, as well. No drivers to deliver goods in high demand resulting in low supply. Thus driving prices up. Thanks for the nice ride, Mike!
Yes they good bug 🪲🐛 on windshield. That's road has changed since I drove it didn't remember that round about. That businesses could not keep paying it rent because CD 19. That's a shame. On all of the businesses that livlyhood CD 19.
Your last video I watched, you mentioned the White Bird memorial battlefield.
I read up on it, very interesting. Thank you for mentioning it . Love watching your trips. Pl es I’ve never been to. I’m such a big history buff.
Love your videos. We're polar opposites on politics, but everything else (scenery, chitchat) is so great!
You ever stop at an old truck stop in Greenriver that has an old diner? They have the best biscuits and gravy on the planet! Used to stop there while trucking cattle to Utah from feedlot in Mack or Montrose. Altough u do need to have a roll of TP about an hour of stopping there but wroth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was there literally on Tuesday this last week had a load from slc to dallas. 191 to 490 i think on down to nm to I40.
Had a clown going the same speed and when there were 2 lanes he would go 1 to 2 mph above me just to stay in front.
What kind of truck you driving? Stick or automatic? I like your videos,, puts me to sleep, lol so calming.
Have you ever got brake checked you've seen them on RUclips I see them all the time and what are you going to do when someone break checks you if it was me I'd ran them sounds a b****** cuz you can hit him without damaging life just damage the car you can hit him just right because that is not right you guys cannot stop on a dime and these people don't understand that especially if they have their loved ones in the car they're stupid so be careful out there and thank you for your video
You made my day. Have eye surgery later this morning.
Nice to see you back on. Sure have been missing your videos. Stay safe and have a blessed day.
Beautiful out there ! My son and his family is going out to Colorado Springs next month!
Hey Mike !!! Thanks for the ride !! In NC. ,They allow 39k on 1 set of tandems as long as the gross is NOT over 80k !! Use to haul ""CORONA """ beer out of SC & They always overloaded the nose of the trailers !! No scales in SC to the NC border on I-85 from the Shipper !! Most loads were delivered in NC., So NO problems there !!
I don't believe any state is exempt from paying Federal Fuel Taxes. Maybe theres no state fuel tax.
my aunt and uncle live in kab utah and my other aunt and uncle live in fort collins co. (i have 4 uncles and one aunt on my moms side & 3 uncles and one aunt, who is deceased, on my dads side)
edited: my sister lives in tempe az
When I did something like that I taped a note to the computer to remind me before I left next day. I had a bad case of CRS.
Sorry dude…there is VERY little any Prez can do to stop inflation. 🤭
Ruth here, 🤣🤣, high beams do the trick, my brother was a truck driver and, my, what stories he had
I am back...finnally got new internet at home...so far sooo good!! :)
we were snowbirds for 10 years and took 191 fall and spring coming and going from junction to mesa -- you didnt point out the arches -- or the colorado river at moab -- springtime you cant get through moab for the bicyclers -- great place to eat at bluff -- thanks for the ride
“Great to see you back on the Road; missed your presence!”
You mean the tax that helps pay for road maintenance? That tax? Drive a dirt road.
I just donated, glad to help. Thanks for the new video, going antsy missing the west! We were just up in Nebraska , Iowa & Ohio, nice open spaces but I really love the west landscapes.
First time I drove I-70 in Utah was westbound on a Yamaha 500 in August 1976 going from Virginia to Las Vegas. I have made that beautiful drive about a dozen times since, no prettier section of Interstate in the USA in my opinion. Love the video's. THANKS!
That is a beautiful stretch of road!
Ok maybe I did go through that scales and didn't go pass it.
Still looking for latest videos from Terry Australia
I'll watch this later on the big screen when I get home from work. Noice, Noice..........
The bugs were too small to see on screen I couldn't see anything on it
In Iowa if you were under gross they wouldn't fine you.
Getting rid of thanksgiving ? never heard that one lol.
Do you get a referral for someone signing on when using your name?
Speed up! Hammer Down! Go Faster!
always write a note and put it on steering wheel, helps to remember, or just put something on it to remind you that something is needed
Thank you so much for the videos I love them all.......UK John
I knew a UK John once.
A Power well, that'll keep you busy finding the right one !.
Slow down & kick-back------Enjoy!
I had to laugh at you talking about UT-95. I had to deliver jet fuel to Halls Crossing...which is 80 miles west of Blanding. However, I had to go the long way around to get there from Phoenix. 3hrs from Hanksville to Halls Crossing. Really pretty country, though.
It's trumps inflation.
Have you been to Olathe Colorado
Hey ride-um shotgun
Good Moring Mike Have Great Day
İyi yolculuklar
hey Riding Shotgun, can you do me a favor? Can you film a lot in Phoenix, Az.? I was from Phoenix, Az. and moved here in Mobile, Al. back in late 2009. So as you can see, it's been nearly 12years I haven't seen my hometown. You know like travel through where ever you need to go in Phoenix, dropping/unloading off trailer, loading/pick up trailer.
Utah was looking so much like the desert SW that I had to look it up. Tada ... it IS the desert SW. 🙄
I have learned quite a bit in the brief time I have been watching your videos. I bought a very nice, bound World Atlas when my son was travelling the world with the Navy. It has helped me a lot, too. 🙂
Must be one of them tourists
Good times for truckers “finally” my son-in-law has earned $300,000 last 10 months. He can finally buy a home.🤗🇺🇸
Hello Riding Shotgun
Hey and Thank You for the beautiful video....great memories are awakened in us when we look at them... two years ago, at the same time, we drove right there in in a motorhome...many greatings from Germany
Beautiful scenery. I'm not from the US, but I think I have seen this landscape before in photos etc (esp. the location at 30:50). Can someone tell me what/ where this route is? thanks.
you have a tough life
....Great to hear you, and to see through the windshield.....filming the final days of the american empire.......stay strong and stay careful and be Safe and Ready, at all times....Bravo!
Love that state…all of it
Do you know what is the last thing that goes through a fly's head when it hits your windshield?

...its rear end!
(my former boss told me that one, courtesy of his aunt)
ITS ABOUT TIME!!!!! J/K. Been missing you - glad fo rthe post.
I don't remember going into the scales if I was going straight through to Az. When east bond I had pulled into that scales . But maybe I forgot about that or I don't remember it to much because it was back in 2005 or 06 when I drove down that road .
I have driven that highway several times. What good memories ❤️. Safe travels my friend 😉
It's why I love Colorado,Utah, Idaho, Blue clear Sky's ( ICU) LOL
should leave yourself sticky notes on steering wheel when you make "remember" changes...
