    15:03 after millions of miles and 41 years that man still smiles when he hears that truck. Find something that makes you feel that kind of joy in your work. As a fellow driver that guy is an inspiration

    I grew up in a small town in east texas in the 80s with a c.b. base unit always on in our home, my grandma always giving truckers directions to the local feed mills and wood mill. On rainy days she would fire up the amp and talk all the way to chicago! I couldnt help but to tear up thinking about these good memories that are forever gone like Brian said. I very much enjoyed this interview, thank you Brian for your service and everything else you have done for the industry and country, and i love the truck!

    What an awesome old timer. Awesome stories. Back in the day when you pulled over for a break down or a flat tyre there would be up to 6 to 8 trucks would pull up to give you a hand. That was awesome

  • @patsellars5658
    @patsellars5658 Před 6 lety +3

    Hi there Chris, you keep raising the bar with these interviews and talking to someone like Brian is really important, it's kind of like preserving history and a great way of telling the young generation of drivers coming through now how truckers had respect for each other and how folks interacted together, walk into a truckstop dinner nowadays and look how many drivers are sat alone with an electronic gadget instead of real people. Personally i think i'm lucky to have experienced that era. Anyway another great job Chris, stay safe everybody. Pat. UK.

      @kraigcochran9995 Před 6 lety +4

      Every morning you had to stop at a truck stop and wait in line with the rest of the truck drivers for a turn on the payphone to call your dispatcher. Best truck stop had a phone at every table in the restaurant but most of them had a "phone room" with anywhere from a couple payphones to dozens depending on the size of the truck stop. You either used a 1-800 number or used a prepaid card.

    I remember waiting by the base station for dad calling saying "I'm coming home" whether it was with ma or grandpa. Grandpa turned dirt, dad ran the roads, I guess I'm a good cross of the two because I do both.
