I loaded Nesbitt trucking for years , worked in the Quarry industry for over 20 years , now I just bought a truck and set of trains

Lol “I sell propane and propane accessories” had me laughin

Looks like a great day to look outside and go back to bed!

Je suis français chauffeur a la retraite j'aime bien tes vidéos respect pour ton calme malgré des situations difficiles. Continue comme ça et bonne continuation.

Lmfao love the cb chatter gets me everytime 😂

Blows my mind that chains are illegal somewhere in Canada lol I live in BC and we need to have a set on board from October on

for a youngblood, he's got a well stocked skillset. I dragged fuel joints around the GTA for 25 years and his skills are far and above what most drivers pulling a dryvan will ever have. That said...after working tanks and skateboards, a dry van looks massive in the mirror. Kudos to ya kid, and even more so, the attitude....someone best be proud of you.

I’d be petrified of driving a rig like that in those conditions.. props to you

You sir are a calm and cool customer! And that is why you’re a professional. Thanks for the ride along brother. Hope you had a merry Christmas and a happy New Year 🎊🎆 😎🤙🏻

@ 12:58 That CB was perfectly timed 🤣🤣🤣

I grew up in rural Australia where everyone got a wave.

I've never driven in Canada before, but if it's anything like Wyoming or Montana during the winter, (I'm sure it gets a lot worse lol) y'all have my eternal respect. 🫡 It can be pretty fun to drive in the snow, but the other day I tried parking at a rest area to do my 30, and as soon as I set my brakes the truck started sliding down the hill. I hadn't realized there was ice, but it was nice and slick. I was able to get traction in the snow on the side of the shoulder near the sidewalk, crept my way down to the ramp leading to the interstate, and never looked back. I don't really care to do that ever again. 😅😅

Love CB talk 😂

Cinders works wonders

You have the patience of a saint haha

Fuck man!!! When you came out with Hank Hill I spit my Pepsi out and smashed SUBSCRIBE🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thank You Matt seeing this video makes me feel good about being retired from trucking and living in Texas LOL oh I have chains ( had chains ) and had to use them to move on the interstate I also slid down a hill backward with a loaded dump trailer what fun ,,,,,,,oh I also pulled a hill loaded dump trailer standing up with paddle to the floor holding on for dear life made it to the top,, clutch was very unhappy with me Hehe, has Gizmo got to run on the new homestead

Super cool video 🖐️👏👍🥰

if i close my eyes when i watch your videos and i hear you talk i see the face of david hasselhoff infront of my minds eye. i dont know why i never heard him talk in english since i only know whis german voice-over. ^^ great videos, i like your style!

Happy new year Matt! Stay safe and warm on the road! Watching you getting stuck was anxious but CB radio cheered it up haha.

Nice to see another one of your vids Matt, stay safe out there! i really enjoyed it!

Lol that one guy on the CB has no chill. Hopefully his driving is more calm

that cb rage is for real .... just found the channel, binging the truck vids right now. great content!

I got stuck in that same spot going to triple H...road hadnt even been touched.....unloaded my rear mount Moffett hoping for more traction....nope....had to wait for county sanders and plow

I have wondered for a long time why dont american trucks have a liftable 3rd axle. I drive a truck which is 6x4 but you can still lift the back axle, makes it so much more manoeuvreable in tight spaces and if it is slippery you get more weight on the drive axle.

Happy New Year, Matt. Another great video.

Great video, Keep them coming, Hello from NZ 😀

Every day something different All the best for the new year from the land of Aus👍

Man i like your style..kinda 80s style..love it dude

Merry Christmas and happy new year. Sitting in my truck waiting for my son. Tee shirt weather in Florida. Much ❤ Florida Grown Gma ❤

Yup I was working (Napanee flying J) we got lake effect snow on top of the storm. And we got 6 plus feet snow drifts.

Yo first time viewer, love the pov cam especially with a b train 🤙 I'm abouta dive into a bunch of your vids. Keep it up!

Pull Super B in the Alberta Canada Roads can be as much fun as pulling teeth without any anesthetic. When your empty and pulling 5 axles through snow a joy, and if you can't keep the train straight slipping backwards it's a no win situation BUT chain up axles and hope you have enough weight on Drive Tires

That motor sounds great.

Wishing you a "groovy" 2023. Be cool-be safe!

Happy new year’s buddy all the best to you and your family here from Ontario Canada ❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦😎

👍👍👍🥂 happy new jear 2023

You are a brave man! God bless you.... Roll on... :)

Happy New Year Matt, Norm in the UK.

glad i live in Australia lol

happy new year buddy and stay safe.

Well I can tell you from experience that chains wouldn’t have helped you lol. Funnily enough, the one time I’ve pulled chains out and put them on was in the US. I got caught in a snowstorm in Duluth, MN empty, like you were in this video. I put all my chains on and it still wouldn’t get me up the hill. I eventually flagged down a pickup that was willing to tow me up the hill, and at the same time he showed up a police cruiser showed up and put his bull bar on the back of my trailer and they both got me up the hill. I was very happy they stopped to help me!

You ever try putting a sponge between the long and round mirrors in the winter does help with winter moisture build on the mirrors.

Luv yr channel brother very much a pro brother.

Your a HELLA good driv,ah for a young blood keep the wheels rollin buddy HAPPY NEW YEAR. Did you end up buying this rig? Hope your house is coming along great as well..

Carry a pail of wood hashes, it works much better than sand. Spread on wet tires and on the ground. Doesn't take much to get traction.

Never drove a semi on slick roads the seem to go pretty good

i just dont understand why truckers not saying all but some have a problem with using chains in these conditions.... i mean they help keep you going and drive safely.. thank you for the ride along it was fun and enjoyable....

Hey driver. How was your Christmas. Good I hope. ❤ from pnw oregon

next time, diff lock + chain up trailer :) All the best in 2023, no traffic jams, no breakdowns, no outages, no issues with injectors, turbos, tires and breaks !

I know its less hilly out east, but I feel like carrying at least 1 set of triples or singles would help with those ice-y inclines.

Yeah I parked her at home just before the storm started. Didn't want anything to do with it. As for the spinouts, you wonder why more drivers dont go crazy. Am I right? Glad you got through it though.

Lol at the Tesla at the end. Typical. They aren't the brightest bunch lol

super

I’m bloody glad I don’t have to deal with that White stuff you got. Buggar that!!!!!

Hi, I’m Frank from Germany

I'd be driving slow asf on that ice lol.

It may be my ignorance on the matter, but it seems like in Canada they don’t force you to use chains as much as they do in the northern U.S ,especially in the northwestern U.S., like on route 80.

"got chains?"

I didn't realize how similar CB radio is to pilot chatter

How many miles/km does your truck have on the odometer? Confused between the sub 2 million on the right and the 300k on the left

That Cat really sounds good loaded up. Do you have Diff locks?

Carry some granola bars with you they’re always good in a pinch

Can ́t you put snow chains on tires? Like truck drivers do

Most of the question around this storm was.. where are the plows. That is what I have been hearing most of the time. But I guess when you have less numbers of worker their is not enough on the roads to keep them clear

what E LOG are you using ??

When I watched the video of you getting your rig stuck on your folks farm in the mud when you bought your brand new trailers, it made me wonder, with the custom wheel well fenders you have on each individual rear tire that practically covers the entire tire on your truck, how are you able to get chains on your tires because there looks like there is no room in between the tires and the metal wheel well fenders you have on your rear drive tires? Do you ever use chains at all or do you not need them or drive in mountainous terrain on your routes?

Do you go up Highway 12 a lot? I'm originally from the small town of Sunderland that you would have bypassed, Highway 12 used to run right through Sunderland.

It's time for a set of tire chains ⛓️ here in BC. You have to have chains.

the grate white north

Bucket of salt in the box. Always.

il be honest that constant cb chatter during this would of made me lose my shit lol

they should sprinkle the hill with some small aggregate the last incline is bad

Anywere there is snow especially a b-train should have chains

What GPS do you use on your phone?

Ethel, cover your ears. Seems that a lot of expletives on the radio this morning. 😅

Is vax still enforced for CAD

I'm not a trucker so I'm sure I'm missing something... but isn't that why you have chains?

New trucks costing high $200,000 to low $300,000, if you have a wreck your insurance you might never get again, and it'll most likely be 3 to 6 months before your truck is put back together so you can make an income once again. Nope my equipment is parked in bad weather.

I didn't think you drive your car in the winter or is this your truck

damn !!!!!! turn that radio down

Boy when the white stuff hits it sure gets entertaining on the fuckin cb , I get it all the time when I get up in the mountains here in bc it can be a real shit show but my old kw gets er done no matter the weather 30 tons at a time

man even a cheap set of singles in a bag from a truck stop is good for those moments when you just need to regain traction EDIT read the comments and see that Ontario it's illegal to have chains

centimeters? I thought you were in Michigan.

✊👍🎆🎇🎄🙂

Maybe you should learn what chains are

G’day mate I’ve gotta be asking you one stupid question. Why the hell do your truck drivers have shit? Loads of echo reverb on the CB transmissions does not make for good communication I wouldn’t think.

Times like these, turn down the CB because so many got so much and so little to say.

Can I get an Arabic translation please

Great Video driver. Keep safe!! Check out the Channel Fourth Over! He hauls Logs in the foothills of the Sierra’s in California. He put together a beautiful 2022 Kenworth W990.

Put your camera on a tripod makes you dizzy watching
