Uber Dad is a beautiful man with a big heart. The closeness y'all have is awesome

Kurt and Opie are definitely my favorite of all of the trucking videos!

I should have known that Uber Dad was a medic with his great personality. I worked with a lot of great medics when I was a Volunteer firefighter.

I'm watching from my sleeper!!!! Thats currently parked at a truck stop in Mt. Vernon Illinois!!! Heading to stockton California

Super trucker dan!!!! Trucking with Schmidt!!! Cash is king!!!! Frist class!!!!!

Really love how you just take us along for the ride, no goofy music, just the sights, sounds, and essential information. Makes for a relaxing time, and always, always shows me how easy you make it look (when you've done twice as much off camera)!

Loved the old school way. Run hard, rest hard, back to running. Hi Opie.

Pitter Patter Gettin After her!!!!!!😎🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🇺🇸💎💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰

Keep the dirty side down. Ben threw there many times. I retired 2 years ago. Going nuts. Tha nks for keeping me from going nuts

On August 30, 2023, Maverik and its parent company, FJ Management, completed the acquisition of the Iowa-based chain of stores

The good thing about now, is you have more time with your family...

Uber Dad is funny, when you wondered if the golf cart would make it and he said something like it had suddenly an extra 400 lbs....

Yep back in the 70's that was the thing , Hammer Down in the Monfort Lane was the Talk.. When I started my Career in the mid 70's above the 49th.. In the Midnight Hours I'd be finished my day and Deadheading back to the Barn.. Running across the Main Highway little or no traffic , only the ones that stayed for Last Call.. A Pair of Team Drivers on with Kwikasair blew right Past me like I was Parked...

Thank you for the awesome video ❤❤❤

Da dawgie loves his ice cream snack.

Wow. I haven’t seen a Sinclair station in 40+ years.

My uncle in Idaho watched his grandson a lot. Grandson moved to Alaska. My uncle is kind of heartbroken.

Great content! Thank you for taking us along.😊

boy skimping on the ice cream a bit for Opie

Like being on holidays and never leaving the couch ! Haven’t trucked in 12 yrs now, had to give up my 1 due to back surgeries so retired ! It’s like being back in the saddle watching ! Thank you 😊

There is an old saying in the southeastern part of the US: Road construction started around Atlanta, Georgia the day after General Sherman marched through the south and road construction has never ended there.

Love your content. You're a great entertainer

although this is an old video great always to watch. come to ohio some day and we will hook up

You finally answered my question about who was Harley..A little over 2 years now.. But it got answered lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Kurt, Mavericks is a western fuel stop out of Salt Lake City.They are owned by the Mormons. The ones here in Nevada nave no overnight parking. Their food is usually pretty good too.

Hey Kurt you should Do an Experiment and Bring Jax's On a Kenworth Run instead of Opie see how he does also to see the fallout of opie being upset at Jax haha.

Lol, Opie would have a heart attack. He has a serious case of separation anxiety

we haven't seen Opie with you lately ,hope he's ok

KURT BEAUTIFUL RIDE TO DAY ! OPIE & THE ICE CREAM HE IS JUST TO CUTE ! MAN THE SNAKE 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ COOL VIDEO ! BE BLESSED STAY SAFE !! 🐾🐾🐾❤️🐾🐾🐾🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👊✊👍

I stopped Mavericks in Utah and Wyoming. Nice clean gas stations and always had good food. I hope they keep the Kum & Go name.

I stop in at Woody's a few times to eat at Leroy. Hopefully one day I'll meet you and opie. I'll buy you a Dr.Pepper

Kurt I was going to comment on your video a few days ago about carrying load locks. My advice (worth at least what you paid for it) is to mount a rack to carry them. Those cab fairings are not made to stand much outward pressure.

I agree good suggestion

I used to go through Cedar Rapids in the later 1970's. The interstate highway there now was a wild dream. I-80 passed by a bit south and that was it.

Thanks for the heads up on the snake.

Kum & Go has great pizza❤

It Was just A Grass Snake

Sorry you have to run to Indiana born and raised there that's why I live in Colorado trucking out here 45.yr

They did a nice job on that Sinclair truck stop. I like stopping there.

Oh yes the old way . Retired in 2006 after 38 years of trucking. Sleeping out front of grain elevators . Hauling gravel all day no stopping for that extra load . Yes the money was good . The human body is not designed to take that abuse. Those old trucks beat the hell out of you . Loud and hot . Enjoy the videos stay safe ✌️

Thanks for the extra narrative for those of us who are new to your channel. How do you decide which puppy to take with you? Gotta love Opie!

Wilmington Nc!

Natural selection....I'm a huge believer in it!!😅😅😅😅

I was waiting to see Opie's reaction to that snake.... DARN !!! I guess just bark at it ? Great video be safe you two 🙏

Man I like those stories. Back in the 90's my dad used to drive for Maxton Meat. Maxton NC, he did ALOT of Maxton to Cincinnati. Finally one day he was just so sleepy he said he had had enough. Good old day's. Another company same ole same ole.

Thank you for filming another journey across the US. Glad you make us a part of it!!

Top job once again Kurt and Opie

Hi Scared of snakes 🐍!!! Thanks 😊 We didn't see you remove the wiper blades but saw you buying it and the grease and then your yummy food, chocolate milk and vanilla cone for the German 🐕 How many gallons of fuel did you put in? You never said it, maybe you didn't top it. Yes, I can see why any one would want to stay in that region, open spaces everywhere to park,, and light traffic, is really great for First Class, low wear and tare. Good video... Opi looking good 🥰

You as well Heather

I was always told you get down to 20 gallons per tank you better be finding a fuel stop fast

grew up in Muncie....when i go home to see my parents the golden rule....DO NOT SPEED IN ILL!!! Going over bridge (55 or 57?) you hear the trucks back everything down.... best wishes

yup! that's a beautiful large Flag...taking a dog @ his word, concerning food! now that's humor! yup! snakes & bat's love to live in houses!! thanks 4 the vid! yup! covered it! Hmm...🍌

Awesome video Kurt👍👍👍

✌👍👌💪💪💪,yea the old days.. !! Stay safe, see me next time!!!

I miss those outlaw trucking days too.

The snake is harmless. Black racer

well my pickup finally made it on one of your videos but i still have yet to see my truck. i thought i seen you going east on 20 this morning by holstein but i guess not.

I miss the good old days i had a run leave Chattnooga tn for LA to Miame fl

Nice to see the corn harvest..🎉

I thought I could make on fuel and ran out at 2:00am in the dead of winter and my wife and I had to walk three miles to a gas station 😂you and opie have a safe trip

Among other things, I used to turn St. Louis to Chicago and back 3 times a week, then top it off with a run to Orlando. And I was home every weekend. Not exactly that thing you were referring to, i.e., the comic book(s).

When I was on a team truck we would run pharmaceuticals from Pennsylvania to Las Vegas then deadhead to California for sensitive produce back to Pennsylvania. Each driver did 650 miles a day (1,300 total daily) only stopped for fuel and 30 min break. We would run 8 weeks straight and then 1 week off. Could only do it for a year before going solo. That was my good ole days for me. Money was great but it took a toll on the family

It is funny to mess with dad sometimes

Opie only got a little brain freeze that time. Takecare and be safe.

Hey Kurt just wanted to say hi havent posted a comment in awhile hope you and the family are doing good 👍

Now that's comfort food.

What's up Smith. Yeah they moved to Missouri to. Yep they bought Kum & Go here also.😳😊😡👎🏽. Take it on down the easy side😉👍🏽🤙🏾🙋🏽‍♂️

Thanks for another nice video, Safe travels Kurt.

So happy that you showed my bridge in Peoria 😁‼️ why’d Opie’s ice cream 🍦 look a little smaller by the time he got it?? That was a really awesome shot going over the overpass 👍🦮🐕‍🦺✌️ hello 👋 family

Glad to see you still sticking to it. You obviously have a good company

Explain to us about backing a long nose truck...

There is a Maverick truck stop in Santo, TX... where I 20 and Hiway 281 intersect. It is an ok place, open 24 hours, gravel parking. I sometimes overnight there when I travel from Iowa to Texas. Food has always been very good. Gas is good too but be ready to pay for it.

Just watching your videos from yard here in Texas

The good Ole days were when you didn't have the eld system in the trucks , I wish I had started driving truck when I was in my 20s but I unfortunately didn't start driving truck until I was 50 years old

I go total EDWARD SCISSOR HANDS putting on wiper blades.

Oh yeah, the good old days

Maverick, the flatbed company? Granite City, IL.

I have eaten at Woody, several time

Hey, you just passed I-80 truckstop. Been there several times.

You make me want to start driving again

I like all the videos the one is when you was in vernon Texas

I was born in Peoria

That's a beautiful kw

I bought some of those more expensive wiper’s and they didn’t last a bit longer for the car. Still just got a little over a year with them. I think the same company makes them all. Y’all stay safe and havagudun.

Keep on trucking!

Yep Maverick sure is western! We got em all over Arizona and they’re right at around five bucks a gal.😕

There's Maverik's all over Twin Falls, Idaho.

Nice video Kurt 👍🎉

Nice job backing!

one more state and your in Michigan. 3 hours later you'd be really close to my city lol

Love your style Kurt! How about some closeups of tacho & foot pedals /movements? lol Take offs & stoppings.

I should try that pedal thing sometime

Its not just Indianapolis, its the whole damn state always under construction. This section of I-69, around 10 miles of it, that i live by has been worked on for at least the last 4 years. Every year their is some really bad wrecks cause of it. Plus doesn't help that everyone is in such a hurry. Be careful out there

Yeppers-Maverik is a Western thing-food is actually pretty good-some tasty burritos made fresh daily. The Chorcheezo is my fav. IMO-still not as good as Kwik Trip though.

Other awesome video once again. Hi opie.

Going to Smithfield i bet. On Distribution way (ave?)? 70 through town isn't too bad now that they have it open again. They are tearing up the old pilot there at Mt. comfort exit. Looks like they are putting in another one. Hope they add a few more spots. Great vid as always. I drive for the company whose trl you showed right at the first when you were headed down the line there (also see one of ours pop up on your vids at Topeka occasionally).

Im out of iowa if you remember by chance and do lots of western runs Buttt... maverick bought kum n go couple months back and yes they are definitely a western truckstop and prices are same as big corp truckstops

Great Vlog!..... Lots of things have changed since the good 'ol days, but we're all surviving!....Harley your younger brother? 😉

It's an outwist company and yes that did buy them stations and transport
