At 21 I bought a new K100 Aerodyne and hit it hard with my little wife beside me. A year later I taught her to drive. 46 years later we’re still doing it, except that I’m disabled and she does all the driving. She averages 2500 miles a week with me riding shotgun. I help her in every way I can. Pretty crazy, huh?

That's just beautiful man! Glad you're still able to get your fix!

We need a part 2. The stories that need to be told. Could listen to them all day long. Great video.

It was tough enough to get him to agree to this, so it’ll have to do!

I can't get enough of the classic flattop KW. They are beautiful!

These guys are the real deal 🇨🇦

Over the years, Billys had some wild rides .Nice to see he's still truckin.

I met Billy several years ago at Louisville when he had the Pete... Top notch guy 💯💯

I met Mr Baker at the Carlisle show when he had the ole Pete and the KW. GREAT MAN AND A REAL TRUCKER!!!! LOVE THE STORIES. COULD YOU PLEASE GET AN INTERVIEW WITH RICKY KERNS......ANOTHER GREAT MAN.

Wonderful memories and awesome trucks. Don’t get any better than that 👍

That was a cool interview and the banter with those two was awesome. Love your work Red with the Old School Cool trucks. Hi from the bottom of the world New Zealand👍

Old school all the way. Love the C.O.E. 's.

I ran a Star Car awhile , thats one of the best looking model in my opinion. Light blue outside , dark purple interior. Big Kitty with a 15 spd. Loved it. Tightest cab , no noises or air leaks , best ride I had.

Great interview Miss Red, I’ve been driving since I was 21(1992). I really enjoyed watching that video.

The next legend to Burt Reynolds, Billy Baker. Jerry redd. My hero's, you go, boy.

I remember these trucks on the road when I was younger when I started driving

Wow true OUTLAW of the HIGHWAY definitely need a part 2

Guys are far and Few like you. Real deal

Excellent. I've watched these two 35yrs ago. Oh God that's good. The best interview ever in my opinion. Thank you so much. There's only 2 more guys would have been the ultimate interview but they're both passed though. Again, thank you. Too me, the best interview to date.

His Star is in my top 5 trucks. Glad he agreed to do this and share his story!

The left hand indicator thing they were saying they did to say hi at night to another driver coming towards you, We still do that to this day in New Zealand and has been a tradition done for as long as i can remember except we flick the right hand indicator as we drive on the left hand side of road, the other thing guys will do is flick there clearance lights off and back on real quick which means the same. Some guys even go to hooking up a separate spring button cut-off switch that's hooked into the clearance lights line. They will put it in an easy to reach spot and just push the button a couple times to flick the Clearance marker lights off and on a couple times which is the fancy way to say hi😉. Great video here on these canadian truckers. Thanks

Cam ...I have some of those Markel badges that my father was awarded in he 1950’s

That’s an old Dan Potters truck from Kansas! Good to see it go to a good home! I’ve never met Billy but I’ve heard a story or two told about him!

This guy is fun to listen to 😊

As usual great interview! Keep up the good work.

Thank you! This one is all on Billy. He did an I credible job despite his reluctance. I think it took 4+ people an hour to convince him on the day….and over a year of sporadically asking on my part 😂 Pleased to say he’s happy with the result!

Really enjoyed this interview! Thank you!

Wind her up PA Hwy 15 south bound Blossburg hill ?..drove for Don Sindall B model Mack hauling New Holland farm eqipment.

What I want to know and nobody tells me is how do you negotiate a money making rate ?

Billys body langauge says alot

Toronto market,Hunts point all a bunch of holes. Reefer is just dirty business loading and unloading.
