Amarillo By Morning Through Gallup New Mexico on Interstate 40!!.

Mike, thanks for being that red blood cell that keeps on moving to keep the patient alive!

I've traveled that road many times from the east coast to Arizona. I swear the sign said Amarillo 500 miles......I'd drive another 3 hours and the sign said, Amarillo 480 miles.😄 The best part is crossing into NM, absolutely breathtaking. Thank you for the video, so relaxing. Safe travels, God bless.

Awesome ride. THANK YOU FOR KEEPING AMERICA ROLLING (DELIVERIES). Without it..... we have nothing. My son we on the road at age 23 and finally came home to work locally. Please just be safe and take care . Love Riding shotgun..... Peace!!

Thanks for all the shotgun rides this couple stuck at home due to Covid are able to watch. Whether the pandemic is true or not, we who love to hit the back roads and now are not, appreciate every single video you make. Keep on making those deliveries, and keeping America running. You do a terrific job of driving and making videos. Love, love, love 'em.

Hi Mountain Man Mike. As a kid I traveled on the original Route 66 from Chicago to Oakland, California. We were in a 50’s Chev station wagon. It had the 3 seats. Dad moved the back seat to the center and shipped the center seat. Mom had the baby crib in the center with my sister. I was in the back. I remember us going thru a sand storm that so bad you couldn’t see very well in front of the car.

Sure would like to have seen Albuquerque. Been a long time. But, thanks for the ride.

I live north east of Gallup, NM. The weather is always so unpredictable, one minute it's sunny and hot, next it's windy and breezy or cloudy and snowy even in May.

Thanks for the shotgun ride thru New Mexico, needed to get out of the house, this social distancing is getting to me..hehe....Your windshield was clean of suicidal bugs but it show the dust bunnies on my screen...Gasoline here in Alabama is unleaded $1.56....diesel $2.46.....Glad to see lots of semi's on the roads. Roads are bad all over the USA...SNOW!!!!! Peace

Enjoy all your videos. Thanks for bringing America to KZhead.

Mike I love watching your videos especially with the snow . I'm from Texas and when you go through It I love it. You are a beautiful soul and a wonderful truck driver.

Mike, I really have loved your videos since you started posting your travels. I was a territory rep for a automotive parts distributor in the midwest and used to spend my vacations driving west to visit my Mom while she was alive. I now live in utah and drive back to the midwest to visit. Go figure. I wanted to tell you that your videos mean even more to me these days with this Coronavirus and quarantine. Ive never stayed put this long in my whole life. Thank you man from the bottom of my heart the great videos and commentary and for keeping the life blood of this nation flowing. God bless you brother and stay safe!

Beinging in Stay home riding with you makes for much better nights and days. You always have something to say that keeps are interest on your driving wbich helps pass time away.. Thank you.

Thank you for keeping the country going.

Some Texas action..I like like it! Thanks for being safe, roll on.

Nice long video. I needed it. We saw tonight on the news our county has 34 active cases, so we haven't changed much. Remember that the planes came into Travis AFB. The bad thing that has me stumped, why didn't they set up those big military tents to see people with symptoms there, but no they sent them to area hospitals. Where my sister works clearing ER, that county has 121 active cases. I worry about her even though they are in med/surg outfit and N95 face mask with a plastic shield. Her crew calls themself "The Covid Busters". My step-daughter will be working taking swab samples from a drive-through tent area. She will be a RN in June but they closed her school due to the virus. They are hoping they will be graduated early, since they are on the front lines. Even though you have clean windows, I couldn't read things. I heard that Google was powering down their internet. I have noticed less clarity on other people's videos too. But then again, it could be me and my eyesight. I have had cataract surgery done and I am super good for distance. I can spot deer on the ridge of our hill. My husband is amazed with this. Reading up close gets tricky, but I do think it is the internet is messing with us all. I heard the internet and TV could go down tomorrow. We will see. One last thing, my husband and I are social distancing (not anything new because of the virus). I was watching this video and he called me to the front of the house to watch what he was watching......it was Garth Brooks receiving a special award and many Congress people where there. Nancy Pelosi was the head of the box seat next to Garth's family's boxed seats. He even sang to her. It made me sick...."Miss American Pie". One thing a few of the words fit her and this time...."when she dies"....did I say that? Forgive me God. Stay safe.

I enjoyed your video👍 thanks for sharing. Snowing in March? ...must be New Mexico ⛄😁

Another great vid, Mike. The State Flower of Texas used to be the bluebonnet but it has now been replaced by the traffic cone. Those things just spring up like weeds everywhere. You can always tell the level of corruption in each state by the condition of their highways. Yes, I'm looking at you, New Mexico.

I'm glad to see ur still rolling mountain man Mike ya that's the mainstay of the southern U.S.I40 still look the same old and rough kinda like me. I've been back and forth on that road many many times. Thank u for the ride along . Be safe out there in America

Thank! I enjoy the ride when I was living in the Americas I was a trucker so you keep on trucking and be safe.

Watched three quarters of the move to see the drop off and climb out of Albuquerque and you cut it out. I love that drive day or night, rain, snow or clear. Enjoy your movies as I drove many of those routes in days past and love to see the new highways as well as some of the old.

The one thing I have noticed in grocery stores is the healthy food aisle has plenty in stock

Thank You for posting , brought back some wonderful memories .

Last time I was at Gallup was late Summer 1963. We went to it via Shiprock though in a sky blue 1958 Chevy Biscayne. We went to visit my aunt June who just got married. She was an assembly of God missionary to the Navajo's just across the hwy at Pinion NM about 17 miles west of Gallup. We did go see Window Rock. Glad you're back filming.

Hey Mike. It's "0110" 30 March here in Virginia. Riding with you before long nap tonight. Stay safe. PEACE.

I-40 looked like that in Amarillo when I was driving East tuh Jersey 9/28/17. It was rainy and chilly. Stayed overnight at the Best Western, and grabbed some Dinner at the Cracker Barrel. I really love the Road. There was a little Lady that tolerated two of those 72oz Steak Dinners. I would have never believed it, but I watched Her do it on KZhead. I agree. We Doan Need No Steekin GPS!

Great video of I-40. Would love to of seen it from start to finish. It was a lot of good scenery that I haven't seen in years. Praying for you...be careful.

Love the scenes! Stay safe Mike! PEACE!

Peace be with you Mountain Man Mike. Let's roll on. Thanks for having Me in the Shotgun Seat. Much love...Ronald.

My home town there at 1:00:23. Woo hoo. Home sweet home. Nice cruise their shotgun, thanks. Travel safe.

Love riding Shotgun with you! Thanks for the videos! Greetings out of Norway :)

I love the trip on I40 across new mexico. Even better when traffic is minimal like it was for you this trip

Stay safe out there buddy..Love your videos...and thank you for helping to keep us safe.

This shows how much Truckers are the backbone of American life,

ack,,the eyesores of the landscape

Thank you sir for your hard work! Be safe & stay healthy. praying for you!

I had a close and personal encounter with Route 66. In 1964 the Army decided to have maneuvers outside Kingman, Arizona so we (5th Infantry Division) drove our vehicles from Ft. Carson, Colorado to Pueblo, Raton Pass, Albequerque, Santa Fe, Gallup , and Flagstaff. We were riding in an M37B1 truck . When we got somewhere in New Mexico the Army decided to do public relations stunt by having us do a roadside cleanup on a section of Route 66. Fun times!!!!!

That big grain truck blew your doors off, That,s a real left lane rig...................

Thanks Mike good ride along cool scenery be safe!!!

Hi, if you ever make it to Cheeseville (Wisconsin) I'll buy your meal at the Pinecone Truck Stop in Johnson Creek

Thanks for the great video! I've been homesick for New Mexico!

Love your videos of your travels Mike. In my youth I dreamed of being an OTR trucker but instead spent the last 43 years in a machine shop just retiring last year. I love to travel this beautiful country of ours and your videos are an awesome way of feeling that I am actually “riding shotgun”! ☺️ After watching your latest videos since I found your page since I retired and becoming a big fan from Pennsylvania I have been catching up now with some older ones. Keep them coming! ✌🏻 BTW, as far as I-40 being the truckers highway and living along I-80 myself here in PA I think it is right along with I-40 as far as being the truckers highway, and maybe more so, since it crosses the whole USA from New York City to San Francisco.

I have been lucky enough to drive across the country a few times; riding along with you in these videos brings back some good memories.

Many thanks for the ride Mountain Man Mike. Much appreciated sir. Safe travels.

TUCUMCARI is a cool place to see!'

Great video I enjoy your long ones keep them coming......

Hi Mike thanks for the ride bud here in England road works miles of cones and average speed cameras and 50 mph

Be safe & stay healthy my friend! ~ from Cut and Shoot, Texas!

Tell you what Mike, watching your video travels is a great geography lesson for an English old timer. I follow your routes on my Delorme Atlases. I see parts of your fantastic country I wouldn't otherwise see. Safe driving always.

Thank Mike For Amazing Video You Be Careful Happy Trucking

In my neck of the woods; Amarillo is always construction.. thats why when my husband & I go, try to stay away but oftentimes the construction is everywhere. now especially the east side of town.. at 4:17 where you stopped at the sign; that was a cemetery. YUM Big Texan!! ahh you're heading west.. i sure enjoyed the ride!! TY for what you do & all the others on the road.

Looks very familiar! My Wife & me took a business road trip from Anaheim to Albuquerque in the past fall, such a nice ride! Went thru Palm Springs, over up to Prescott, Sedona, then to Sant Fe then down to Albu! Looking forward to next trip! I’ve been west so many times don’t need a map either, but use one to judge distance for wife’s next restroom stop! Lol

Thanks for the nice ride!

That billboard for the Love's Truck Stop kills me, advertising "Ice Cold Beer". Yeah, right; a bunch of truckers getting snockered, as they keep their appointed rounds(Laughs!!)! I DO wonder, where in their vehicles, a Commercial Driver, may stash a case or two, if they're towards the end of a Run, close to home? Because if they must stop at a Scale Shack, or some other Field Inspection, those cops discover that case or two, would that be curtains, for our Commercial Driver's career.

Thank you for sharing your video.

Hi Mike : happy to see you got loaded a day early, keep on trucking and keep on earning, makes you happy. Last time I drove to Vegas we left El Paso up 25 to los lunas then 6 to 40 to kingman then to Vegas. A little longer but we used two days. Came back to Phoenix and 10 to elp. When you go north try some bottom lures they bite in the cold water off the bottom. Wooly worms or stone flies or even the plugs you use should work. Caught two large 22 inch browns Xmas eve in Ruidoso a few years ago using lures, spoons in the Img lake. Have a good trip see you next video. Edward

Each time I take a road trip into west Texas and I'm under that endless, unbroken sky, I cannot help myself: I always think of early settlers moving into or merely passing through this territory, in their horse drawn carriages, and the native Americans roaming that vast land on foot, long before they were introduced to the horse--how in the hell did those people ever survive? I feel so fortunate to be able to drive my car, unchaperoned, hundreds of miles, and just enjoy the beauty of the earth, knowing that I can fuel-up and get water and food at reasonable intervals. Take care out there and thanks!

As a long haul trucker from the 80s 90s, no traffic means better time not having to watch out for idiots in 4 wheelers, BE SAFE DRIVERS all of America needs you now,

Thank you for the video, Also Be safe.

To be able to see so much sky!

That was pretty fast hour thanks for the ride

Hey Mountain Man Mike I really enjoyed the trip, Route 66 is on my bucket list...✌️

Another great video.Aren’t you missing the snow.Have a great day.

found your channel via Trucker Jukebox...stay safe, stay positive...respect! i dig this stuff so much i tried to download American Trucker Simulator...that game looks amazing...now if you get some low esteem syndrome, think of all those homeboys playing trucker on their computers...they wanna be YOU

Hi mike. its been awhile, glad to see you again.

Very enjoyable video but too bad no footage of the drive through Albuquerque where I currently live. And he is right about Interstate 40. Truckers really prefer this route since the weather is overall usually MUCH tamer than the interstates to the north (other than Flagstaff) and the steep mountain passes are fewer, too. I live about a mile north of the interstate and in the summer months with my home windows open, I hear truck traffic all night.

Hi Mike ...Its Helen...I CALL SHOTGUN.....6 Feet Between Us...Quarantined..THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO...STAY SAFE

Worked for Tim Russell at 15 he would have me go get stock from other store bought out in his personal truck just like his pops one white and one red in Las Vegas but yes Sir the show car's 👍🏽👊🏽💯 thanks for the ride yes I 40 know in 505 the Big I is coast to coast most 🚚

Mt Mn Mike's Musings, Love riding w/ya; Thanks!

Not. To do stay home 🔐 down 😷🤘 enjoying your KZhead all day Keep On Truckin

That's a torn-up mess there on the east side of Amarillo. Just went thru there a couple of weeks ago. Use to get cheaper gas there. Not any more. I came up 287and caught I-40 west at Amarillo.

Sir Mike !!! Saw alot of ""CAMPERS"" headed East as you were leaving Amarillo !!!!

Nice ride.

Made that drive about a week ago going east. Stayed in Amarillo at the RV Ranch. The steak house was closed even for takeout.

lindo vídeo

Good morning from Flagstaff Arizona

Genial route New México

thanks for the ride. )

Thank You!!

Safe trip...jus jump on ...👍👍

Mike, as you drive through NM you seem to shut down the camera as you approach Santa Fe and Albuquerque, both stunning views that we viewers would like to see again. Otherwise, thanks for taking us along, sometimes your opinions are almost hilarious.

Love riding in the right.

Nice video , stay safe 🙏

Mike, Hi its Helen...it is like that in New Jersey, right signal make left turn...OR...the are coming out of a side street...sit there sit there sit there looking see you coming, now almost on top of them, gotta see you and then they pull out...SORRY man that burns my butt, lol...

I miss this route so much.

You should grab you some basic bass lures and when your in Texas, Oklahoma or Arkansas etc... you could stop and bass fish! Soft plastics, spinnerbait and crankbaits are the basics where I live and I bet they work well out there too. Nice to see more videos and glad you are well!

nice ride along.

Stay safe and healthy. Peace!

Wow good video

IF Jay Call was still alive you would know where you had been!
