I did not realize how soothing that low growl of the diesel is going down the roadway. Diesel trucks and driver move nearly everything in the USA and the world. We need diesels, drivers, and diesel fuel. We did drive from Southern California across the I-15 to the I-80 to the I-90 a few years ago to south Dakota and back. We passed thousands and thousands of trucks on the interstates and highways. Trucks truly keep the USA running.

I drove truck in the military. Came out and only drove for a short time with one truck company. Grain and flat bed. Yet as you said. Without the automatic. There would not be many trucker's out there. The truck my ex boss put me on was old but I still loved it. An coffin sleeper. Old Kenworth with an 13 speed. Perfect for the hills and mountain's. When he gave me my test driving test. The only thing he told me at the end of my test was this. Now I want you to only touch the clutch at the start and end. Never touch the clutch any other time. For the time I worked for him. I did just that. Until this day I do the exact same thing when I can find an manual transmission vehicle. The very best driving lesson I have ever gotten. Even to this day. I can put an trailer any where I want it. I watch also bonehead Truckers and lol all over the place on how the none trucker's drive. Yet, they still higher them. Take care.

Glad you took this route as the landscape so far is beautiful. It looked interesting to drive as well. Yes, please, to merch. Vid length is never anything to apologize for unless it's too short ;-) And don't underestimate what subs/viewers would like to see. No matter how much you have driven certain routes, we've only seen them a small amount in comparison. Bring it on! And any section you think you have nothing new to say about... is perfect for Relaxation Highway (which I love, btw)! ✌

I have missed listening to your running commentary and conversation and seeing the magnificent country you drive thru. All the back roads are mesmerizing. I LOVE IT! YOU KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO. You are a natural story teller. It's been a busy 3 months with a change in my lufe. Was raising my grandson for 3 years while Mommy finished her Masters Degree in Civil Structural Eng. In May she finished and graduated and was taken on by the company she had an internship for while in school. And was eirking from home because of Covid. So she was able to keep an eye on my grandson. So she sent me back to my house. I was staying the week with her and my son and go home on weekends. I did that for 3 years. The day Mark " Graduated from VPK" SHE had already graduated from the University the week before. So she yold me I could go home now and have my life back. I never felt like I had let mh life go. So I oacked up everything in my room, loaded my car on Friday Mark's last day of school I picked him up from school, took him home and left, going back to my house. My son was shocked! But I told him I don't stay where I'm not wanted. She wants me gone so I'm gone. It's the onlh way you will have peace and no tension in your home. That was the middle of May...this is the middle of September. My grandson is very upset cause He misses his Grandma. My son tells me hd asks about me all the time. When is Grandma coming back? I miss her. I had him over for an ovetnite one Friday night in July. He didn't want to go home. I was invited by my son for Labor Day weekend. Mark and I played all weekend. So I've had to rearrange my life again and hadn't had time to watch many you tube shows. Last night I started watching this episode and fell asleep so this afternoon I went back and restarted it. The scenery is just breathing and your humor...I missed that. You fill a void in my life and my thirst to travel. You are a blessing. Thank you for letting me RIDE SHOTGUN and I think T-shirts, drink cozies and ball caps with your logo and designs is a great idea. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Hopefully you have doged the Covid bullet. This country owes its truckers a tremendous debt for keeping things moving during this stupid government shutdown. You have kept the country fed and butts clean and medicines on the shelves and life for most Americans at a some what normal pace because you kept America moving. Thank you and I'm looking forward to seeing the changing colors of fall, the snow covered mountains of winter, and the fresh green of spring in the mountains thru yoyr eyes while RIDING SHOTGUN. I LOVE RIDING SHOTGUN. So you take care, protect your family and stay safe. Looking forward to catching up on back episodes and seeing new ones. Anne-Marie Olka Titusville Florida

Hey Mike I have been up and down Hiway 141 many times. Most of the time from the north going south to Norwood , Nucla and Naturita with loads of fertilizer . Nitrate from Cheyenne Wyo and 18-46 Phosphate from Rock Springs Wyo that is the phosphate that comes from the mine north of Vernal that you go by sometimes. It is sent to Rock Springs to be processed into fertilizer.

Goodmorning M.M.Mike hope you're haveing a great day. I prefer the laminated page's of atlas and or road maps. And it's awesome seeing all of the weather changes in such short distances. It's something I've never given it much thought to. And I love it. Looking forward to your Mountain Man Mike tshirt. I want one for sure. I thoroughly enjoy the road trips. For retirement I want to spend it on road trips with camper. Love driving in snow. It's way too beautiful. I love the view's of freezing rain the day after. Wouldn't attempt driving in it without chains only if I had to drive in it. The only think scary is thick fog where you can't see more than 3 ft in front of you. Had to pick up my son from work. 20 minute drive took me almost 2 hours at 5 to 10 mph. Drove by a parked semi will full light's. Couldn't even see it till I was almost beside it. Took longer because I missed my exit. I'm guessing fog is impossible to drive through with semi. And you keep driving in and out of snow. It amazes me. Enjoyed riding shotgun, loving the view, the sky is amazing. Later M.M.Mike. hope your daughter does well with it.

Growing up in northeastern Wisconsin, I remember driving on frozen clear roadways in the winter with the snow blowing over the pavement. It is very safe because the roadway is clear, clean, and not slippery at all. Maybe the worse is higher air temps with freezing rain hitting the frozen pavement that creates ice if temps are very near freezing for longer periods of time. We did not see too much freezing rain in northeaster Wisconsin. Usually it was warm or freezing cold with little freezing rain turning to ice on roadways.
