Your love for trucking really shows! Thank you for taking us along on this journey.

Hampir semua model truk nona Iwona Blecharczyk kuasai serta Medan/jalanan yang mulus sampai yang parah pun sudah di coba.... Wow hebat, saya suka 💕... sukses selalu.

Thanks for the tour Iwona, good to see you doing so well over there. Stay safe. Pat UK.

LOL Iwona, I have been retired from Long Haul Trucking 3 years and really miss it, but I keep up to date with the Transportation Industry through drivers like yourself, Ray, and a few others. Thank you for sharing.

Spring is around the corner. I had a new Volvo in 2001. Well built truck. Drive safe Iwona.

Nie znam się na ciężarówkach, dlatego nie będę się wypowiadał na temat zawieszenia i tak dalej. Natomiast jeśli chodzi o zasilanie, czyli 12V to sądzę że jest to spowodowane tym że jak padnie 1 akumulator to możesz odpiąć go i na trzech od biedy odpalisz. Pod warunkiem że sprawdzisz który jest kiepski. W europie miałaś 24V i jeśli padał akumulator ( np. zwarła jedna cela ), to nic nie mogłaś zrobić. Jedynym mankamentem zasilania 12V jest to że kable muszą być trochę grubsze. Większy prąd rozruchowy. Pozdrawiam.

Very well done you explained everything like a pro. Your doing really good . Enjoy your trips in Canada and the USA . I enjoy your videos . Thanks

Love the Volvo and Iwona the most....!!! Be safe girl...

Szanuję panią za to że wykonuje tak ciężkom pracę a pani jest taka drobna kobitka szacunek !!!!!!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊

Dotąd nie interesowałem się ciężarówkami, ale tak ciekawie opowiadasz, Iwonko, że zaczynam się wkręcać. Imponujesz mi wiedzą, umiejętnościami, tym, że dajesz sobie radę w odległej od Polski Ameryce, a przy tym filmiki kręcisz na luzie, ze swobodą i wdziękiem! Dobrze, że jesteś i dzielisz się z nami swoim fascynującym życiem... Pozdrawiam Cię ciepło z Katowic! :)

Thanks Iwona, very interesting !

I'm from Australia and enjoy your videos, thanks for the insight to trucking in Canada.

Trucking my Passion

Iwona, you are the Snow Queen !! You make a truck walk around into something so amazing to watch !! You are beautiful !!! XXXXXXXX

Hi from the UK, this is a most enjoyable and informative video from a great KZfaq channel! Am already looking forward to the next one! Well done.

I worked for Mack Trucks, Inc on the assembly line for 12 years back in the 70s and 80s. Installed engines, transmissions, groomed engines for everything, mounted cabs on chassis as they came up the line, windshields, cab trim and a host of other jobs. Was a great time then and worked with a great bunch of guys.

i understand you wish to explore driving north america , but i choose to drive in europe and scandanavia, i done 48yrs and enjoyed every part of it, i have many irish friends who went to us and canada to drive, most came back, money was better from Ireland to Europe, regards from danny from Ireland, keep safe,

Nice professional video again Wiona, you're so gentle and seems so nice, it's a joy and watching your videos. To bad they dont have parking heater over there.

Welcome to the USA. So proud to have you here. Please keep the videos coming. You are beautiful and smart.

Bardzo ciekawy odcinek. Dziękuję

Iwona, the trucking company that hired you got a real PRIZE. You are professional, experienced,honest and by the way BEAUTIFUL. Hope you enjoy trucking in Canada & the U.S. God speed and stay SAFE!!!!!

Witam Iwona, miło widzieć, że w końcu jesteś uśmiechnięta. Pozdrawiam.

W Europie w standardzie też jest z przodu resor a z tyłu poduszki. Z przodu poduszki to są w ciagnikach typu lowdeck pod naczepy typu mega.

thanks so much for the truck sightseeing ,,, have a nice day ,, in Canada ,,, best regards to you from elo in DENMARK / EUROPE

I had an APU on my truck here in the USA, surprised Canadian trucks may not have that. Much cheaper to run than the truck engine. Welcome to Canada, enjoy your time Iwona!

You explain your "big baby" like a real professional who loves the job, Iwona. Enjoy what you are doing and ... above all ... take care of yourself, young lady. Cheers!

To było cudowne jak otwierałaś maskę tego potwora...😍

Cudowna kobieta, kochająca swoją pracę. Dziękujemy za chwilę z Tobą.

Thank you for the subtitles.

Only in my dreams to drive this truck.. aside from that im also thankful to japan made truck i drive before... you're so very lucky Iwona..

awesome.. its takes a really strong person to leave her country. not knowing what to expect and succeed in the trucking industry. in Canada and the U.S. not many men can do that or willing to try.. stay strong Iwona... LOVE YOUR VIDEOS...

A bunk heater is an option for most trucks. I'm surprised they don't have an apu on there trucks. Love your videos keep them coming and hope to see you out on the road someday..

love your videos love seeing all the places you go to thanks for the videos

...pěkné a zajímavé video. Iwonka, poprosím také o film z nějaké tvé jízdy. Věřím, že si poradíš s mojí češtinou stejně jako já s tvojí polštinou. I tak, dzienkuje bardzo...inak 👉 👍👍

Iwona I have seen alot of your Videos and have loved everyone of them I enjoy seeing you in your Videos and that electrical system on that Truck is a 24 Volt system in Europe you had 2 12 Volt Batteries hooked together with each other there you have 4 6 Volt batteries hooked together as 24 Volts keep up the lovely & great Videos I'll never stop watching them I found you on here loading and unloading the small Trackhoe on the Pier early that morning and been watching you since as I stated I'll be watching for a long time to come I've seen you do some remarkable jobs on here too you have done what alot of men do as truck drivers kudos to you Great Work and will always LOVE YOU

Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing. 🚛👏😃

Beautiful Iwona, as always ;)

Really nice video! It is a bit strange with a 12v system... By the way, you forgot to mention it's a 6x4 with two driveaxles in the rear :). That's not so common at least not here in Sweden. Most tractors over here are 6x2. Seems like a nice truck. Very simple and easy to maintain.

Trzymaj się Iwona ! Do odważnych świat należy,jesteś Dzielna,Odważna i Piękna,wiesz czego chcesz i potrafisz do tego dążyć.Trzymam za Ciebie kciuki i niechaj czeka tam na Ciebie najlepszy samochód jaki jeżdzi w Ameryce !!Kiedyś przynajmniej będziesz miała co wspominać...

In América everything in truck and auto is typically 12 volt. Volvo probably installed 4 batteries for simple installation , replacment. More cold cranking amps the better ( CCA) :) I've been driving trucks for a long time. Oh , by the way those cats eyes are a very nice feature. Ummm.. love your videos . It's nice to see you explain the technical side of your truck. Stay warm :p

Przerobiłem już trochę ciężarówek i żadna nie miała poduszek z przodu. Może na gabarytach każdy brał poduchy, ale do standardu chyba bardziej by przeszkadzały (np. Wystrzał ) niż pomagały 🙂

I took some notes during the video. If you don't mind reading what a mechanic has to say I will continue. If the hood release inside the truck does not work, the two latches can be released from the wheel wells. Support the hood while opening until it stops moving in case the struts are broken (it happens). When closing the hood make sure to push on each side to ensure the latches have locked. Not having air bags (cushions) on the steer axle is more of a reliability thing. Air bags tend to fail more often than simple leaf springs. If the engine shuts down while driving as if you had turned the key off, check the fuses that are in the battery box. American trucks regenerate while driving if operating conditions are met. The center pin of the trailer cord (Blue wire labeled "Aux") powers the trailer ABS and, if equipped, the trailer tire inflation warning light. If your truck is equipped with an engine heater (usually called "block heater") it will keep the engine warm enough to provide cab heat soon after starting the engine. The electrical connection for the block heater is usually below the driver's door. The red and yellow knobs for parking brakes (called the "dash valve") are different shapes so you can feel the difference without having to look at the knobs. The trailer brake lever is called a "Johnny bar". The suspension "dump" switch on your Volvo will only work when the key is in the "run" position. Lastly, if you come through Wisconsin, I have small kit of extra tools for you to keep in your truck. Take care and drive safe. Tim

Przy równoległym połączeniu akumulatorów rośnie pojemność (Ah) zestawu akumulatorów (sumuje się pojemności poszczególnych akumulatorów), co jest przydatne zwłaszcza w niskich temperaturach (sumuje się również prąd rozruchowy). Poza tym: przy 12 voltowej instalacji, jednakowej w samochodach osobowych i ciężarowych, nie ma problemu z żarówkami, przekaźnikami, etc: po prostu kupuje się żarówkę do samochodu i tyle :)

W Ameryce wyznają zasadę im prostsze i działa to zostawiamy, dlatego pojedyncze światła w tracku bo i tak jeździ się częściej z naczepą. Mniej połączeń z naczepą bo wtedy większe prawdopodobieństwo że jakiś wężyk w naczepy lub dodatkowy przewód padnie. A jeśli chodź o zawieszenie pneumatyczne to resory z przodu jeśli są, a są paraboliczne to dają radę, w sumie amortyzująć silnik i lepiej się wtedy prowadzi , precyzyjniej, truck, natomiast pod tyłeczkiem mamy poduszki dla wygody:)

Nice. Wishing you always all the best and save on the road.

Fajny kanał Iwona....szerokosci i wiosny w Montrealu ✌

Great video. The sleeper has a nice heater under the bottom bunk. At least most of them do. The engine in your truck is a Detroit diesel. There are 3 normal types of engines that are in the tractors in North America: there’s a cat, Cummins and a Detroit. I don’t know if Volvo has there own brand of engine or not. But the one in your truck looks like a Detroit. Be safe and keep it between the ditches. Thanks for sharing

American trucks have evolved and changed a lot (mostly for the better). I was a truck mechanic, and I can remember when trucks used a 24 volt starter which was connected to the batteries by a big series-parallel switch; 24 volt was only for starting and the series-parallel switch often failed, especially in the coldest weather. Many times mechanics have had to go out on the coldest day of the winter and change one out so the truck could start. The reason modern trucks use several smaller 12 volt batteries instead of 2 huge 12 volt batteries is because of cost, it's cheaper that way. Many things on modern trucks are driven by cost. The reason that modern cars and trucks have so many relays is for the same reason, cost and also weight reduction; copper wire is expensive and manufacturers can reduce costs and save a lot of money by using relays and smaller wires. Many things that trucks do or don't have is because of cost. It's all about money (or government regulations.) I can remember when old trucks didn't have power steering or air conditioning and they were under powered, that was before interstate highways and most highways had hills. A big truck would come down a hill at 70 or 80 miles per hour so that he could get a head start for the next hill, and by the time he got to the top of the hill he'd gone through all the gears and moving about 5 miles per hour. Some of the newer trucks are more comfortable and luxurious than many cars are.

Boy a lot of comments already. You are very popular, over here and back home in Europe. Do all your company trucks have cattle guards? That's we called the rack in front of your engine. Are you getting the miles you need? You showed us one run to Laredo. Are those common? Thanks for taking the time to show us what's going on. Be safe.

Excelente video! :) :) Muchas gracias Iwona

You've got yourself a subscriber....and respect. Thumbs up

Great video Iwona. The American trucks can do regeneration while it is being driven. I think they started doing that in 2012. The earlier model year trucks needed to park and do the regeneration.. My 2012 International would regen while being driven. My 2016 Freightliner does as well.

Great to see you in this video. I hope to see you on the US roads soon. God bless you my Dear!

Iwona you do have Webasto. It’s called here “Ester heater”. I drive Volvo 2011 vnl 670, D13. You can turn it on by going to the menu in your sleeper, press 2x then SET ON and the heat will start (under your bed you got huge vent) - thats the webasto vent Check videos on yt “Ester heater volvo”

CIEKAWY ODCINEK, DZIEKUJE BARDZO

Hey Iwona It's so amazing to see you with the Volvo 670

Wita fajny filmik dzięki za pokazanie auta bo chyba każdy jest ciekaw jak to tam wygląda ale żeby nie było tak słodko to kółka uwag jest :jednak pierwsza to dotyczy zawieszenia przedniej osi to w Europie tak jak i tam większość jest na resorach A zbiornik na płyn jest dwa razy większy

Can’t wait to see you tackling the Ice Roads Soon.....

IWONA!!! Love u much...thanks for the videos

Fajne autko ,szofer też ,,Pozdrawiam z ciepłej Polski

Co do zawieszenia i braku poduszek. To że nie ma poduszek, znaczy tylko tyle, że nie można regulować wysokości tego zawieszenia. U siebie w europejskim aucie też mam takie zawieszenie jak pokazałaś (zwykłe resory) i jest ok. Takie zawieszenie może być zarówno miękkie jak i twarde, zależy jak producent je zaprojektuje. W sumie jeździłem w kilku firmach i w żadnym aucie nie miałem poduszek z przodu. Wydają mi się zbędne, bo niezależnie od tego czy na pusto, czy załadowany, przednia oś ma mniej więcej takie samo obciążenie i nie siada. Poduszki z tyłu najważniejsze 😉

Nice tour of your truck , think you should have a basic tool kit . Take care .😍

Podobają mi się te Twoje zbiorniki :)

Super filmik , pozdrawiam z zaśnieżonego Podkarpacia 😊

Canadian trucks regenerate while driving on highway. But you must keep speed above 80kph for 1-2 hrs to fully regen.

Miss B rocks , I love your polish accent , I am myself fluent in Russian now .

Poooozdrawiam.

Jak to już nie aktualne! Teraz Ice Road Truckers :)

O prawdziwa zima, nie to co w Polsce. Pozdrawiam Iwonka :)

Nice video, I enjoy watching. I love it.

Hi look forward to hearing from you. Most likely you wont read this but just love your posts. Thanks for doing the captions. Big difference between your Europe tractor unit is the rear drive, the USA track and New Zealand trucks are tandum drives with cross locks. The European tractor unit I would say would be more advanced. Take care.

Thank you Iwona!!

Good job Iwona. Thanks.

You can get a airbag front suspension on American truck if you order it that way. Because of the longer wheelbase on American trucks is generally not needed for a smoother ride. Volvos have a longer spring that makes it softer. I drove the Volvo with an air suspension in the front row very nicely but was not much better than the standard leaf spring. The designers of these trucks have it all figured out pretty good.

Very good, you are learning quickly. Volvo trucks I hear are good, similar to Freightliner. Your truck seems to have smaller èngine. Being 12v is easier and cheaper to replace. Further they tend to last. Will be waiting on a video driving thru New York. Have a blessed day. Joseph

Also, North American trucks do both types of regeneration; passive= while rolling, and parked regeneration.

Saludos desde mcallen Texas

Very interesting iwona ... Keep going ,,,, thanks

Kocham samochody 👍😀😀

Thank you beautiful Iwona, nice video!

beautiful truck for a beautiful lady

I learned about Diesel Exhaust Fluid when I went to buy a diesel car in December. No prior experience with diesels. The car is great once it gets warmed up, but it sure is cold blooded! Have you ever driven truck in Russia? I've watched a few videos from "Дальнобой с Юлией Лазаревой" (long-haul with Yulia Lazareva), where I have noticed what appeared to be both American and European style trucks in use, but maybe I just assumed wrongly that those were American. They were shaped like your Volvo here, anyway, rather than being flat-faced like every known European truck I have seen.

Eh a tak niedawno było cieplutko w Mexico :)

Witam Iwona :) Czepiając się: Instalacja elektryczna dwunastoVoltowa, zatem 12 VoltÓW. Powodzenia na kanadyjskich drogach :) Wszystkiego dobrego, pozdrawiam!

Iwo, wracaj do nas😊 Europa czeka✌️

Acompanho seu canal, dou like em todos os seus vídeos, teria um imenso prazer de receber um alô seu, aquele abraço!

Hi Iwona, Love your videos of your adventure you are experiencing! I wish the very best for you and your travels; but i can't help myself from asking (hahaha) how many marriage proposals have you received since you started driving truck? (just a funny thought)

Samotna biedna piękna Iwonka.Pozdrawiam.

Świetny materiał Iwonko;)

Nice Iwona, European truck using 24 volts, 2 batteries in series connection, but American truck have 4 batteries using 12volts in parallel connection. Be careful always & be safe. God bless your travel.

Iwonka tyle lat Ciebie ogladam i coraz ladniejsza Jestes ;)

Fajny filmik dzięki.

Fajnie się Ciebie ogląda, super .Mogę pojeździć z tobą

Interesting, thanks

Nie jestem kierowcą choć mam prawojazdy na ciężarówkę solo. (kat. C). Nie będę się wypowiadał na temat zawieszenia. Z ciężarówkami (Jelcz ,Star) tylko miałem doczynienia. Teraz jestem operatorem maszyn drogowych i budowlanych. Mogę tylko powiedzieć na temat instalacji elektrycznej. Połączenie szeregowe zwiększa napięcie ale nie zwiększa pojemności akumulatorów. I tak np. 2x aku 12 V/120Ah = 24V/120Ah. Połączenie równoległe pozostawia te samo napięcie lecz zwiększa się pojemność akumulatorów. I tak np. 2x aku 12 V/120Ah = 12V/240Ah. Pozdrawiam.

bravo, beaituful girl

Podziwiam i trzymam kciuki 🤜😍😍😍😍😍

!! Cześć Iwona -Światowa Kobieto !! Chciałbym Tobie podsunąć taki mały, kolorowy a zarazem wesoły pomysł ( oczywiście koncepcja i wykonanie tylko w Twoim wydaniu), tylko pamiętaj żeby to było z Życiem z Życiem by ci było milusio w tym Twoim drugim Domu przez te wszystkie Mille i Pauzy. A pomysł ten dotyczy tych wszystkich zasłonek w kabinie które gryzą się z Twymi Pięknymi Oczyma i Uśmiechem. Zrób tam kolorowo a i nam teeeż będzie bardziej... Jest na Świecie tyle pięknych Kolorów,wzorów i pomysłów w wyobrazni która Ciebie na pewno nie ogranicza -a dowodem na to jest to, że spełniasz swe Marzenia - więc będziesz miała z czego wybierać hi hi Powodzenia Ps. Najpiękniejsze Trucki to WESTERNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that's my girl, so very smart. I never had know someone like her

Iwonko, większość europejskich ciągników też ma resory na przedniej osi. Może na gabarytach miałaś na przodzie poduszki, ale 95% zwykłych ciągników ma przednia oś na resorach ta samo jak tam.
