Dodgin' Scales and Taking Backroads | Day in the life of an OTR Trucker

Another day in the life of an over the road trucker. We had some terrible trailer issues that were only nuisance problems but took so many hours out of my runtime. 13 to be exact. So with the lack of a good complete repair to the trailer and several partial repairs we were left with only a few options.

Dodging scales and taking backroads was my choice, not just to avoid the DOT but also to take in the adventure you can find along the back roads. There were so many cool places we stopped on this trip that we wrapped them up in a separate video that will come out soon. From ghost towns to national parks, there is so much you can miss by just taking the interstate route.

An atlas has always been my best friend. It can be yours too. You can plan all kinds of routes your GPS will never take you. If you're interested in content like this, give Dakota and I a follow and we will see you on our future trips!
