I drive interstate myself and I can tell the viewers here that you are doing a lot of effort to make this amazing content despite the busy routine. As you asked for suggestions, I suggest maybe you can show us some drone footages of the truck stops and other beautiful places where you can park safely.

Doesn’t matter how long you have been driving, new roads with a big rig is always a nervous affair!

Good on you, mate. I live in Chiltern, Vic, just south of Wodonga. We can se you guys from our back veeandah about 3k away lit up like Christmas trees at night. You may know of the homeless Truckie, drives B-double refrigerated like you, but for Lindsay's. He's pretty good at youtube, been doing it for a while. Cheers

(3:33) ~ Coles called they want their shopping basket back ole mate 👍🤣👍

Another great video. I cut my teeth over 30 years ago as a 19 year old carting coal between Oakdale and Wollongong (Port Kembla). 4 loads a day -12 hours a day - 6 days a week. That was when we ran through Picton and Wilton townships. Certainly a different time in road transport. No computers in trucks, no GPS and no dash cams. It was like an episode of the wacky races every day. Not too many cars could keep up with us on the windy stuff.......

Great vid mate. Lovin how honest you are and no BS. Keep them like that and your channel will go a long way. Stay safe out there brother and I will be watching you on Friday night.

Gday bro , don is looking down and thinking yep ,this guy deserves to drive my trucks, keep up the great work 👍👍👍

Loving the videos man definitely a good insight and motivation to get up and get back on the road and work towards getting my license, videos are great always good to have the camera on keeps the eyes open to have something to talk about on the road keep up the vids

Yet another great vlog Mate. Keep em coming cos we fallas love watching it. Got me brother in Fiji hooked up with your vids. A bit advertising for Coles too😂. Good on ya Mate.

Hey mate love ya raw content no bullshit just real and also your honesty keeping it real will matter enjoying watching cheers Pete

Coles are looking for their basket. ONYA Mate.

Your Vlogs are amazing mate.. keep it up and keep showing us the beautiful Australia.

I’ve been watching your vlogs since they first came out. Watch a few of the truck driving vlogs and yours is definitely one of if not the best. You have a real talent for this mate, I hope you keep it up and look forward to seeing how far you go. Cheers

Thanks for the vids bro. I live in nz now but I used to drive for Americold right next door to your yard. We drove through your yard everyday to load our dry stock. Seeing you drive along Lytton rd onto the gateway and down the coast bought back good memories for me 😂 safe trucking brother

Im so glad ive come across your channel mate, its so awesome to see this side of the story - im no truck driver myself but your content is great!

Another great vlog, like I'm in the driver's seat. Be really interesting to hear your stories of how you got started, and memorable happenings along the way.

Awesome! Loved the vlog. Now a subscriber. Off now to watch V1-4 !

This is great mate, keep it up 👍🏻🏁

Loving the content mate. Thank you for sharing! The little details are interesting for people like me who are entertaining the idea of long-haul driving as a change of career. I have a mc license but haven’t used it for work. I drive medium rigid trucks most weeks but I’m not employed as a truck driver lol.

Love these truck videos. Awesome job. Was riding that detour and the nerves 😊fantastic

The detour was in fact following the top of the escapement along south till you picked up Picton Rd going west back to the Hume as you said. You actually didn't go down into Wollongong, close thou. Where you turn left in Appin was great choice. Straight ahead on Wilton Rd ends in pain. Boughton Pass, hairpin bends into and out of tight bridge crossing the Cataract River. Not B double route. Great insights. Good stuff.

Nice videos mate. I’m not a truckie but respect the work you do. From your view we can see how normal car drivers can be a problem. Stay safe, you have a family that cars and loves you.

Excellent video mate. Was always my ambition as a teenager growing up in WA to be an interstate truck driver, after watching the semis coming down Greenmount Hill into Perth........it never eventuated, I joined the Navy instead - did 20 odd years and then ended up in IT!! Retired now, but your vidoes shows me what I could have looked forward to. Definately not all rainbows and lolllipops, but certainly some good times if you enjoy your own company. Many thanks for posting!

Great vids mate. I use a rag for the fuel when it rains & a brush for the dash just like you. I drive a concrete truck in western Sydney, a lot of big industrial sites out here being built, very dusty, especially when I'm in reverse & the engine fan kicks in, dust everywhere !!!

Great vid brother congrats on 2k subs 🍻🍺

Your wife spols you with her cooking 😀I act the same way when travelling down a new road one truck wide. Thanks for sharing.

Great work. When I did the run we had to change gears. Fantastic to see your attention to detail. Cool clip.

great vids keep it up l am watching from New Zealand l am a truck driver here its great to see what you do love it be safe mate

Awesome content mate. Class 4 (HR) driver in NZ, Making the move over to Brisbane soon and keen to get my MC license. Cheers for giving us a look into your trucking life bud.

I'm enjoying you vlogs. You provide an honest down to earth prespective - maybe even inviting new drivers with your initial experience! I can't believe Australia can't have a more automated infastructure that manages the paperwork the truck drivers have to fill in every day.

Nice vlog! Thanks for creating and sharing! Grtz from The Netherlands

Just found your channel loving the content so nice to see Aussie trucking

Love the vids bro hopefully I see you on the rd

Lovin the vids mate, I’m a rigid driver in Melbourne but would love to drive a big rig! Your story is awesome and good luck with your ambitions. Keep safe bro!

Great work in hard situation with the detour, Picton road used to be a real death trap , they cleaned it up a heap. Another great video thanks

Great video, really enjoyed watching it. Lucky you turned left at Appin, the road straight ahead to Wilton across Broughtons Pass is certainly not B Double friendly. I used to use it with a 3 axle rigid years ago but these days there is a length limit on it. There are a couple of tight hairpin bends that would have caused you all sorts of pain. Keep up the good work, you make an old truckie miss his time on the road.

Greetings from America.Wow, that's very cool. I love checking out trucking from different countries. Over here in America, it's right close to the same thing that you do over there. Matter fact, some of it is the same stuff other than our trucks are different here. I drive the American classic peterbilt 389. Have safe travels, my friend and stay in between the lines.😎👍💯

Great informative video .there is no more enjoyment than driving out in the Australian country side . I'm lucky enough to live amongst the bush and drive my tip truck , keep on truckin

Hated loading in Brisbane in the rain in summer. Everything got soaked, lol. Great Video mate, keep up the great work.

Great work m8 and great content, Recently moved to Rockyview QLD but my home town was Tahmoor NSW which is not fair from picton. RIP TO THE LADY AND YOUNG CHILD IN THE ACCIDENT

Nothin special bout the gong mate, scenery’s not to shabby, That’s about it. Awesome vids mate, quite wnjoy them 🤙🍻

Good content mate keep up the good work and stay safe. Cheers Michael

Cool video, makes a nice change from watching Outback truckers. If we ever leave the UK I would love to continue truck driving in Australia.

Have my MR and used to drive tourist vehicles between Casino (near Lismore) and the GC; work at a local servo now but also occasionally drive the local cab……would love to look into upgrading and doing something else as have always felt at home on the road…..these videos just make the itch stronger and something. I’ll definitely be chatting with the wife about so thank you for the content and please keep it up 😊

these videos are so interesting, my dream is to be truckie and you are just proving that, you've earned yourself a new sub.

Just found your channel, great video. I drove trucks over the road 20 years here in the states and been driving charter Buses for the last 20 years. The nerves still ramp up when I drive on a road I haven’t been before.

Really enjoying the channel, Would love to see a bit of a walk around video of the truck and trailers, showing the systems and so on,

Thanks for the excellent video. Can you make them a little longer as I,m enjoying the beautiful scenery of Australia. You drive a truly beautiful rig . Cape Town South Africa.

Hi shayne from Albury new to the channel I am with you driving a b/double were you haven't been before. Safe travels

I know you guys hate us around town clowns but I got massive respect for you blokes who drive these monsters. I struggle with my 10 palleter at times

Good stuff Aussie Trucker Man sure beat them miles up

Great video mate thanks for sharing....I'm a truck driver in the uk 👍

I loooooved Wollongong when I visited Aus in 2015. We should be back there around 2024ish to establish somewhere in NSW

Good video mate watching it from here in UK 🇬🇧 👍

You did quite well with going from the Hume Highway to Appin Road

Loving the content, this randomly came up on my suggestions and I'm glad it did! I actually service the bins in your yard ( I didn't know it was a Watsons yard, my paperwork just says americold ) Been thinking about getting my MC for a while! I love that same hawkesbury section of road too and think about it often, good memories with my old man on that stretch of rd many a time! Also commented before I watched the whole thing, I grew up in Picton NSW and only moved to Bris about 6 years ago. You were perfectly right about what you said about Appin Rd etc, it was always just a small country town and all those housing estates came later. The way you went is right, if you went on Wilton Rd, you would've come unstuck at broughtons pass which is a tight hairpin rd, had a few get stuck there growing up as a young lad haha. It is a hell of alot quicker if you are in a car though! Also dead right about feeling uncertain when you don't know areas, it never goes away!

Awesome video! 😊👍🔥

Wise decision not to explain the cheat sheets old mate, the Pacific and Hume are a hell of alot better than when I last took a semi on them, love your vlogs and keep it going.

Good on you mate love it

Videos are great brother. Was going to do the road train changeovers for DW but ended up doing other freight you have me thinking now 🤔

Great work and inspirational i hope to be doing it too soon cheers

Loving the vids mate. Shout out to Marulan, I grew up there and my parents still live there👌. For your wet seat, me and my Mrs use a seat cover in our car after surfing to keep our seats dry. Just google surfing/dry seat covers mate. You could maybe give it a go/review mate? Keep the vids coming mate👍

KEEP ON TRUCKINGGOOD BROTHER 👍☠️☠️👍

Brutha I’m glad you didn’t take that Wilton Road, you would have made the traffic report on the radio as a B-Double stuck at the Gorge 😆 love ya work 👌

Great work. 😀

Great work champ

I like ya frozen meals son ,looking forward to trying some when i come over 👍👍

See you there!

Great video.....👍🇨🇦

Hi Sir I just come across your channel great video i have subscribe watching from the U.K.

Ended up being a triple fatality. All occupants of the car died in a crash with a cement truck. The toddler died in hospital a few days later

I'm actually thinking about moving back to Sydney or Brisbane I've been pulling triple and quad road trains for around 15 years it's time for a change

Doing a good job mate

Nice truck

You go fast .

Best job ever

I'm So Happy That I Found An Awesome Trucking Vlog Channel 😃😍. Bro Stay Safe 😃. You Drive For A Good Trucking Company 😃. DON WATSON'S TRANSPORT Should Get SCANIA'S 😍. The Fatal Accident Was On The News. It's So Sad That The Mother & Daughter Died 😭. That's Why People Should Really Wake Up & Realise That's Why Buses,Trucks,Trains,Ect Are Called HEAVY VEHICLES For A Reason. My Wife Does The Same For Me. Makes My Lunches,Dinners For Work 😃

Loving your videos. We had to detour around the Hume highway accident too. Was traveling from Wollongong to Sydney.

I always carry plastic bags for the seat if I know it's going to rain. One or two woolworths plastic bags go a long way 😅

Arr the old window electricks in a K200, i remember going down the Hawksbury when the passager side window decided to go down in the middle of the night, enough to put the fear of god into a man,LOL.

That Appi /bulli road was used in the razorback highway blockade.

Do you talk on the radios often? First time hearing it this vlog, interested to see more radio chatter on your trips! 👍

Tell about ramps!! At dock in a little more!!

Nice work ethics, what are those blinking lights on top of your dash? Be safe and take care.

Good video mate. Keep them coming. I have absolutely no idea about trucks so I find this interesting. How long do you “warm” the truck up for from a cold start

awesome be safe keep left.

Hey bro next time you’re down the Hume stop in at berrima at the southern highlands at schmokin. Grab a feed from my cafe!

I hate having to go down roads youve never driven on.. massive sweaty palm moment.. I drive a 30m "A-double" road train tanker and dont want to snooker myself by going the wrong way, they are not as easy to reverse as a b-double as you know.

Get a raincoat! 😂

Great video, good to see someone who looks after their truck so well. Do you drive the same prime mover all the time, or just any one they give you on the day ?

Such great videos, congrats, will certainly be watching more. I have no idea how you do such long hours on the road. What was the total time from Brisbane to Melbourne and how much of that was rest breaks?

26:10 straight through is called the razed back zig zag road mate

Hi mate love your videos they are cool. When you first started out driving what navigation app did you use for your truck

You really know how to drive, respect for how quick you got it docked on.....here in the netherlands we have those b-trains too, i have never done that. And that tractor is that a KW?

Good on u use to drive with dad melb /syd good job

Last thing you wanna do is go up that road. Always take the left when you’re in a bdouble going through Appin

So interesting

Good ol Ballina BP truck stop

Hahaha no way you pinched a coles basket

❤❤❤❤
