I keep saying it you are a lot nicer then I. If I have appointment time and I’m there on time and they say they don’t have time for me go to truck stop they’ll call I tell them don’t bother I’ll get another load. After 28 years I don’t have the patience anymore to sit and wait. I understand your position your going to bed.

Kurt, you do such an incredible job at showing us what a normal hard working American can accomplish. Your ethics, work habits and direction you demonstrate with your family, yes that includes those furry kids, proves what success can mean. We hear it all the time, “ money is not everything, but it would be nice to know for sure” LoL. You’re a gentleman and great influence on the younger folks that watch. I wish you all the success in the world, be safe, careful and keep your sense of humor !! Please !!

That away Kurt " maybe I don't have time for you " Like a BOSS !!! Funny how you get much more respect when you get strong. LOVE IT 🤟 SAFE TRAVELS PAL 🙏

Truckers are awesome... they deserve our national gratitude for all they do to keep the country rolling.

Know you miss Opie and we do also but his health is more important

My dad was a truck driver in the early 60’s till the first part of the 80’s.Shippers and receivers haven’t changed.Stay safe and thanks Kurt.

Most ppl could care less of what TRUCKERS go thru UNFORTUNATELY!!!!!!!

It’s a shame how truckers are treated. Your time is just as valuable as theirs 😠 Be safe. Miss Opie! 🐾

Unfortunately the clerk who check in trucks have never been in or on the road most likely, truckers are limited on driving and try to make everything fit for their schedule but someone saying we don’t have time don’t they have a hub truck so you can drop and pick one and go

Kurt, you did the right thing. At that point in time, rest was more important than putting up with what bee was in her bonnet.

I have never ridden in a big truck like yours. But when I'm driving home late, an I pass a truck stop lined up with sleeping truckers, I am instantly sleepy 😴 🥱 It is totally psychological, but gets me every time! I imagine them all cozy inside their trucks, with the engines humming.... 😂 I'm immediately ready to crawl into bed!

Kurt your bigger than life personality is the reason why we watch this video as much as we love Opie. We hope Ops back problems won't keep him from being on the one of our favorite KZread trucks " first class" and we hope his chiropractic can make him and jacks feel better. I think you said poor Jack suffers a lot more bone ailments than Opie

GOOD ON YOU!!!!😊 Yep I will come back when I have time for you then since you are not honoring my pickup time!😊

"...well I'm going to go to the truck stop and I'm going to go to sleep if I wake up I wake up I'll see if I have time for you." **Good for you!** 😎 💪

Another great vidja Kurt. Hope Opie gets some help 🐶 Super delighted you stood up to that dispatcher person at your last drop off. Get em told, drivers do their best to get to places on time !💪👍.

Love's usually has an air hose every other fuel island.

Hey Kurt, glove box is full, use the inside of the visor for more stickers. lol

These trucking videos definitely show the reality the not so fun side of trucking

I’m the Oversize load that passed you today North of Topeka. First Class is looking good! 👍

I'm not a trucker but I'm smart enough to know that everything we use or consume has at some point been on a truck driven by a truck driver. It's bullshit how you guys are treated.

Yes they do work hard stay strong brother

Enjoy watching you and all your family. Down to earth people. 😊

i ran reefer for 12 years, got so damn sick of waiting. the grocery warehouses want you there, and then keep you there. i found flat bedding much better, when you get there they take it off!

Kurt, as you will know. They never like it when you play their game back on them. I would have said the same thing though. Great video stay safe and get some well deserved rest.

Hey kurt, i just got off the phone with my wife and dogs. They go crazy when I'm on speaker phone. We're thinking about a chiropractor for our 9 yr old Golden retriever. Headed to tacoma, out of hours sleeping in Tower ND. Safe travels to you.

Drive safe out there and see you next time also sending prayers to Opie that his chiropractor appointment goes great 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Hey Mr. Schmidt, great video sir! Glad to see that things are going well for you. God bless you sir and please be safe in your travels!

Stay healthy and keep that truck running brother... God Bless You!

Kurt not sure how you do it, after a few hours on my bike most muscles are sore…then drive all night your a warrior!

Sounds to me like your travel agent needs to talk to that shipper about getting you some detention pay. I find it hard to believe shippers haven't got it through their skulls that you can't drive all night, then stay awake at their beck and call, then get enough down time to be legal, before your required to drop off or pick up your next load. Let alone the domino effect on your schedule and how that affects your earnings. They should be compensating you.

A other awesome video once again.

always enjoy your vids....you handled the wonderful receptionist or dispatcher with upmost class...much better than i could or would have. please as always, be safe....

Hey! Remeber when that area at the sap bros flooded! The pictures are up by the restaurant. Crazy 🤪

Thx​ nice.video😊

Every thing turns right side out. It’s just some of them take a little longer, that’s all. We are glad that Opie and Jax are benefiting from the chiropractor…a ride sounded more fun anyway 😊👍🦮🐕‍🦺🐕‍🦺

Have you ever joked about your bouncy bouncy ride in first class? Sometimes it looks like you are in the driver's seat of a Jack in The box. the driver seat being on top of a Jack in The box😄 oh my

Safe travels

Don’t blame you a bit. I wouldn’t be to anxious to return to the either. Havagudun trucker.

Sometimes Curt you just have to treat people the way you get treated, good job.

Hi never had a comment but you need your sleep good night

Kurt the title of this video should have been no I don't want to stop and sleep actually and what the heck happened to that truck that I just passed that looked demolished. Shorter version no I don't feel like sleeping actually and what the heck happened to that truck

That's Trucking !

Get some rest Kurt.

Without an ELD you can fudge the times, but with an ELD, it controls your day and makers it more difficult to arrange time for loading, etc. Are you going to get the old CB radio back? Missing the hula girl on top of the CB.
