You've been home bound since you left Tifton Dan. Your videos are great for helping me with American Geography. I've driven the Atlanta, Memphis, Checotah OK, part a few times but the rest of America is a mystery to me. Distance is the hardest to comprehend, the whole of the UK is just 980 miles north to south and we're never more than 70 miles from the coast. I wish you good luck with the loading and a safe journey home. Remember it's just like any other journey until you pull through your home gates. Take care and look out for crazy truckers: in all types of vehicles.

Dan another great video. Glad that moron who cut you off didn't cause an accident. Been watching all your vids - having great time seeing the country with you and seeing how you handle your own repairs. Good stuff. Thank you sir.

Nice to see you made all of your stops. Great work that the mechanics did in getting you back on the road. Close call by the other driver of that flatbed truck driver. Probably couldn't wait behind you and thought that he could overtake you before he realized his exit was coming up. "CRAZY". Be safe out there Dan.....

Know the rest area at Tifton well. Then 319 to Tally and 10 west. Been going up to that area of FL and GA since about 1964-65. Taken SR 12 over to Bristol is probably a little faster as one person commented. Have a safe trip. Love that area of FL. You do great video's

i've been counting the loads that a side kit would of worked on. back when i ran the south-they didn't like a side kit-made ya pull it down for everything i loaded it seemed. back then-oh-that grating wouldn't of had to been tarped. when i was gonna buy a new spread-i wanted the side kit package they was offering-but as u said-then i needed another extra box-just to have the other tarps-its just a vicious circle. ha!

Another good video Dan.. I was waiting for someone to pull a dumbass move from your opening line.... but I'm from New York.... that wasn't even close!!! I get worse moves than that pulled on me every day... and I'm usually driving 40 tons of sand or gravel. Stay safe, enjoy your home time.

Gotta love those 3 pc tarps. My last 5 years before retiring I pulled a new Rolltite 48 ft all aluminum Mac trailer my company assigned to me after major surgery. Ok, I'm old school as far as log books go, but sometime could you kind of go over how you log with the electronic log system. I retired 9 years ago and just curious as to how that works and what you do if the DOT ever wants to check your log book.

Had lunch with my wife about 2 blocks from where you were stopped at the light at Timberlane Road just before I-10 and got off at exit 192 where the guy cut in front of you to head home (just off US 90) about 25 miles from the Flying J. I was looking for you the whole time. If I had known, I'd have come to Cottondale and bought your supper. About what time did you come through Tallahassee? One of these days it'll work out.

Dan - Two questions please. Watching your other vids you mention power divider lock when you're on mud. What is that? Also, how do you decide how the trailer is loaded? How do you determine weight balance? Do you tell whoever id actually loading the trailer what goes onboard in what order according to weight distribution, and/or strapping/tarping requirements? Thanks for watching..OOOps that's your line. Mine is great vids Thank you !

👍

The driver that cut you off to get to his exit is something I am seeing more often, dont know if its distracted driving or just impatient people but its bad to not only to deal with cars but truckdrivers should know better

Is always good to see Cali dog. If you want her to stop pulling and walk beside you, put a choker chain collar on her, then when she goes out in front pull back on the leash lightly and say heel, and keep doing that until she walks right beside you. At first she'll turn her head to make sure she's beside you, but later she'll stay in place effortless. If you just want to leave Cali dog do what she wants, that's ok too, I'm just telling you how I was taught and how I trained my dogs. Most dogs want to please their owners if they know what you want. I have found out thru the years animals are not defiant on purpose. I always enjoy Cali dog and your videos. Take care & drive safe, & I won't do what the black semi did hauling the army trucks. I'm a very careful driver. I think one rule to safe driving is always leave plenty of time to get to your appointment so you don't have to drive like a nut and make mistakes.

Wondering why you didn't use the first tarp to keep the other from getting covered in dirt like you did with the second and your felt? Driver in the Yellow rig wanted to drag race off the light.

Hi Dan ! How many owner operator works in Mercer transportation ? In France, it's call "tractionnaire"

sorry for my ignorance but why are flat bed trailer axles so far apart when box trailers are closer together the scrub on your trailer tyres must be really bad ( from across the pond uk )

LOKIE THAT SONG WHO IS THE BAND?

SORRY, LIKE THE SONG. WHO IS THE BAND?

wow that flat bed driver I would have been cussing, do you leave your camera run the whole time you drive, or do you shut it off after you been driving a while?
