- It is not often we actually get to learn about the towns we drive through while trucking. I tried to make that a priority this time. I did my research and I share with you what I've learned during my trip. Let me know if I should do more of this. I also shared some tips to combat drowsiness when trucking. Don't be afraid to pull over and stretch your legs! Happy trucking everyone!

I drove OTR for 7 years, and driving thru small towns was the best part about the job. I also enjoyed the open road, especially out west, but having grown up in NYC, the small towns always fascinated me. Stopping in small towns and speaking with local shop owners and residents gave me a great appreciation for the people in my country.
Im loving this happiness by the “historical” mile 😂 please keep your vids coming! I love them all 😁😁
🇺🇸 There is so much fantastic scenery out west, just amazing! And it doesn't hurt at all to have a very soft sweet voice to narrate the journey!! Happy trails 👍🤙😉
OTR felt like the earth was constantly spinning under my wheels and I was just standing still. Always wished I could stop and explore and talk to the locals. Much appreciated this video.
Shelby, you are truly an artist in how you show the world the life of trucking from your and Dakota's perspective. You provide so much information to those of us that are in other parts of the country that don't know the experiences that you have. We love your videos with travel information! You are truly talented! Take care, be safe!
Wow, Shelby's face at sunrise 😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Love these travelling videos; great for someone that doesn't get to to see a lot of the country. Keep rolling. 😀
There nothing wrong with only one meal a day, that was an amazing sunrise😍 that was so cool about all those small towns and the information you gave on them, please do more small town in future videos it’s really interesting. I also agree with you about stopping and taking regular breaks when you feel tied and just walk around for a bit. Can’t wait to see your next video ❤️
i moved to albuquerque 3 years ago and am trying to learn all i can about its towns, so this was so interesting to watch and learn about, thanks so much for all your efforts in making these videos, they are much appriciated . thanks!
That is so important to listen to your body and know when to move especially after eating. It helps digest your food and moving seems to give you some energy!!💪🏻 Love your videos, keep them coming !!!♥️
Great video. Good music. Hats off to a beautiful woman driver. Your story is always told well. I would be your online boyfriend anytime.
Good video! You also drove through the Navajo Reservation at the beginning of your video. It's nice to see home again and also the town of Vaughn when I worked on the pipeline back then. Thanks!
This was awesome! Love the in depth facts about these areas
Awesome video, Shelby!! I love the new addition of the stories and info about the towns you go through! I look forward to seeing your next video!!
I love the direction you are taking with your videos Shelby! Thank you for the beautiful scenery and fun facts 👍🏻😃 Can't wait to see where you are headed next. Be safe and give Dakota a big hug 🤗🐕🐾
Shelby, I love your vlogs so much! Please keep them coming. Stay safe!
This was such a cool video Shelby, I like the style a lot, the trips through the small towns were a lot of fun. Safe travels
It's always interesting to learn about small towns. Great to see all the cool spots you're showing us. 🖖👽👍. Cheers Blessings🙏.
Love it ! I'm glad that you still enjoy driving.
Love the info and the stories about the small(er) towns in the country. I've been doing a lot of vacation-inging and road-tripping in the US.
Just meeting all these weird small places is something that i will remember until my end of time.
Your videos are always a joy to watch.
That was Awesome Loved It Shell Keep at it Girl Love them Vids 🤪🤪💪🏼
I can only handle driving 4 hours before I need a break. I love going through small towns. I love history and learning new things. Safe travels Shelby and I did enjoy this.
A good video Shelby!!!! Nice to hear about the small towns you pass through!!!!!!! 💖💖💖💖💖👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
It is great to see you back be good.
Really enjoyed the towns and history! Keep doing this when you can, please.
You are what inspired me to start truck driving 👍🏽 obtained my license about a month ago and so far I’m having a blast driving around and still learning, thank you so much 🙏🏽
Hey Shelby! Glad you're staying safe. Trust your intuition! If it doesn't seem safe avoid it. We're ingrained in being nice to people. If you get a bad vibe, listen to it and get yourself out of the situation asap. Take care and keep the videos rolling. Love ya!
Wow! Did not know these places existed! (except for Roswell) This was great, looking forward to more!! Thank you!
Thank you for the video,it was really nice to see those place where you was.Wish you all the best!
Yess you made my day ! Glad your ok and back on it. Miss you buddy Dakota with you. It’s cool to see and know about those little un known places. Keep on trucking 🤘🏻
I love your historical tributes of the small towns you are going through. Keep it up.
Really like the atmosphere you are creating with the new vids aswell as the insight. Life is a journey and being a truck driver really brings home the point. Future is ahead, past is behind you. Happy to join you for the present. Safe journey until the next time..
Great video Shelby I love the scenery that you provide Keep them coming
i love the happiness by the “historical” mile, please keep them coming
Hey Shelby!! Some great advice in this video!! As a new trucker I always appreciate when a seasoned trucker shares words of wisdom about taking stops when you need them. It's so much smarter to take those small breaks and keep your brain fresh ... I don't think we even realize how much we might be missing when we get into that boredom-tired-hypnosis state!
Also on the food things ... I was a personal trainer for a long time and did a lot of nutrition coaching. I gave some bad advice when I didn't know better, but I've evolved and learned and I've come to this conclusion: everyone is a little different, and you should do what works best for YOU. If you feel well and remain healthy on one meal a day, then that's fine! And on the part about walking after you eat -- that is EXCELLENT advice for anyone. Light exercise after eating stimulates natural insulin production, which helps us metabolize food and balance our blood sugar.
I'm sharing my experiences on CZcams too and always appreciate your influence as a more experienced female trucker in this space! Looking forward to seeing the next one!
Love the history of small towns... especially the first settlers and families adapting to the place. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing Shelby. You're a beautiful individual. Contents are great. 👍👍
Tanks for these incredible pictures!
Thanks for the video, I always love to learn about the history of towns, especially if they have some interesting things happen in their past. keep up the good work Shelby
Yikes! That stretch was so cute 😍. Keep on trucking girl. 🚚 great videos btw 👌
I liked the video! Keep it coming’! Stay safe out there!
Great video and loved the info about the old small towns, safe travels.
Just watch it again really felt the love you show in your blogs, that's what makes you who you are as a person. The joy of your travels across that lovely place you call home like your sun rise clips keep doing that makes me smile
Great video Shelby!
I enjoy the interesting facts about the small towns. Great video, Shelby!
You are definitely one of the most intellectual people in the trucking business (probably in any business), Cheers from Austin, TX!
I really enjoyed this one, Shelby. It is always a pleasant surprise at the end of my day when I jump on CZcams and see that you have posted a new vid. I like the direction you’re taking, exploring the small towns. I came up through New Mexico and Utah last week, so beautiful. Thank you for continuing to inspire. Days like today I get a little flustered and frustrated but all it took was watching this video to realign my enthusiasm for the job. Safe travels, look forward to seeing you again!
Love your videos
I love the added history to your regular content. Keep being amazing Shelby!
I didn't care about company policy, I carried while on the road, nothing says 'Wrong Truck' like staring down the barrel of a .45 or a 12gauge, just say'n.
Awesome Vlog. That's a great route and lots of good information there.
I love it and with more history happy by the mile good job 👏
Fun facts are always fun 🤩 history lessons while truckin
Good to see you posting again. I was going to reach out to see if you were ok. Glad to see you recording again. Be safe out there!
Hi Shelby. Liked the video. It's always exciting to hear about the places you pass by. You are welcome to make more of those. Greetings from little Denmark.
We love you so happy your posting again hugs
This is very cool to watch how you take care of yourself and make an effort to learn new things along the way. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Tea tea 🤣🤣 let's keep it G rated Shelby! Love the videos! Stay safe
I love the footage. It's the way I used to do my youtube channel. It's just nice to throw in while voicing over with interesting facts. I think your brand of trucker chronicle is unique to you and young people interested in this life will really get what is possible. Our days are full of frustration mixed with site seeing. You put a positive spin on every detail which helps me cope with my own day to day headaches. Appreciate you dear, be safe... And keep being you
It's beautiful. I have always loved the Southwest. The Desert is beautiful the nights are amazing. Yes keep this up. I will watch forever.
Great Video Shelby,very interesting
Love the history of the small towns. Great idea. It gives the personal touch as if we are team driving together.
Thank You
I like the small town idea and the videos where the person is driving👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Happy and safe travels!!!
Cool video. I enjoy hearing about small towns
I love it! You ended so close to my tiny town in Texas! Fluvanna! Happy Trails!
Hi yes I enjoy the history lesson been threw those towns on trip that I took but didn't stop to see them good to see you back good luck
Love history and you did a good job on this as usual.👍
Watching your videos feels I'm watching a documentary from netflix because of the quality of your vid is so so good and your content is perfect. Keep it up and ride safe!! 🙏
So CZcams demonetized my favorite video hook line and sinker.. their passets for that by the way. So I came across your channel moments later and you’re the new one. Please be as good as the one I just left thank you and all endeavors to you…
I enjoyed the fun facts of the small towns!!
I must say I enjoyed you talking about the towns. As me I like learning about history and different parts of our country or different parts of the world. But keep the vids coming they are AWESOME
Living this new style of historical small town America. More please.
Just gonna say Dakota and Shelby stay safe and just keep on giving us the inspiration of not giving up and to always have a smile🙏🏻😎. That first little town was said to be haunted🧐.
Good to see a new video on your adventures. Stay safe n keep her shiny side up n rubber side down.
That's fun and interesting hearing about small towns. I never get tired of riding down the road seeing the views either. I think it satisfies my craving to be out on the road again! A little. 😉Thanks for taking us with you! 👍
I always enjoy your work
Being a lifelong railfan and brand-new Amtrak employee, I've gotta say thanks for the little bit of railroad history!
Great video. Safe travels 🚛💨💨💨💨
I love seeing more of your personality and interests as you continue to vlog 🙂
Awesome
enjoyed this very much
keep on truckin
Good to see you putting out new content. Would love to see you and your content more often though. My wife and kids think you are so super cool because you're a small women driving such a big truck. Anyway, please keep it all coming. And, stay safe.
Really enjoyed this, well done. Love seeing and hearing this history of the small towns.
I can’t believe you don’t conceal carry, I’m a six foot two hundred and fifty pound man and I wouldn’t traverse those truck stops at night without a weapon.
Love the stretch was so adorable love ya Shelby 💗
I like it. Seeing small towns with the stories/histories. probably also about places with beautiful sceneries. 👍👍😁
Chai tea is so amazing !! I love it 😍
This is fantastic not only do you teach us about truck driving but you also now get to teach us about the towns and cities that you go through which is really cool because some people they'll never get the experience any of that myself I've been all over the United States so I've seen a lot but I still have never seen planes Texas LOL or Roswell New Mexico which I actually want to go to someday and check it out 🙏😎
Definitely do more like this video; driving through and showing the small towns! I do that whenever I have the time on the load and my 70, but I mostly stay east of I35. Stay safe out there!
Yes I enjoyed the town visit!
Another awesome video keep the great content coming 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸God bless and Stay Safe
Thank you for the historical lesson, you have to dig deep to learn the lore of the land.
I like to enjoy the scenery as well, why is one of the reasons I like driving to places I’ve never been to.
That was so cool! 😊
Visiting small town USA is very fun. Thanks for sharing your ride.
nice job Shelby keep on trucking girl your awesome and keep the shiny side up stay safe
Nice my home state featured in the vlog. I like your style of vlogging. Soon I'll have my vlog started just need to learn the new editing software. Safe travels down the road.
That was really cool !
I very much enjoyed this video. Keep up the great work. Your cinematography is superbly stunning. I thoroughly enjoy the sunrises and sunsets as well. This is an amazing nation, but we frequently only see a minute portion of it. Fantastic travelogue. Your health segment was informative and appreciated.
You do great videos love them keep them up the states that you go to I have been there also myself I drive a truck myself so it's cool to revisit those States on these live streams try to watch your videos when I can if I'm not busy myself cuz you know how that trucking life is 😆 keep on shifting gears and slapping rears be safe out there 🤘🤘
Enjoyed the road trip with Super Shelby 👍 Keep it safe and we miss Trucker Canine Dakota .... Glad to see you back with a positive attitude ...

I love watching you. It's as if Phoebe buffay has become a trucker. I am a trucker and I will say this... you are a damn good trucker.
Love the video! I believe I drove that route once before and was amazed at how small some of those towns are. Lol
Hi Shelby. I really enjoyed this video, yes you can make more videos like this. Bye
