The back end of a very dusty hose coming out of it and a yellow bucket sitting under the pump house.
Pretty much everything at this customer is frozen, so I had to use my pump to push the old product that had frozen in their pipe with my fresh, hot, product into their facility.
My Gods how the 30 year old pump screamed and screamed.

Two stainless steel tanker trailers sit in a bay with hoses running between them and out of frame.
Once again rescuing another load. Buddy's pump stopped working, so we are using our gravity pipes to feed from his trailer to my pump to the customers silo. Trouble is, his load has cooled, so it is VERY thick and slow.

It's hard to see, but it's the information plate for my trailer, showing that it was manufactured in 11/93
The old tanker trailer in question, illuminated by my trucks work lamps and a streetlight. Yes I know I have a light out.
My very old pump house in my very old trailer.
Happy 33rd birthday to my trailer, I guess, damn. #LongHaulLife #TankerYanker #Tremcar

A little bit of blindside action.
I'm not the best out there, but I never hear any expensive noises when I'm backing up.

A semi truck with a pride flag slung over the bunk, parked near a Canadian flag.
Delivered to Molson Rexdale last night. Maken beer.

The rear view of a white Semi-truck sitting at the curb of a factory with its headlights and taillights on. The scene is bathed in orange and blue light. The truck is dirty, with roadgrit and snow covering the mud flaps.
My truck basically runs on midnight oil at this point.

The back of a tanker trailer with the pumphouse door open and a hose coming out of it.
Apparently this place unloads in 2 tanks, and the bleeder line between the two of them is like, 1.5 inches, so I have to run my pump at like, 1/3rd speed to keep from overflow.
No alarm, no viewing glass, no kind of overflow warning at all, just vibes.

A tanker truck sits between silos and a building, with a hose going off camera.
It's a wet morning, but it smells like fresh baked cookies here.

A blue butane torch being held in front of a international steering wheel
Had a few other drivers recommend I buy a torch in case my pumps start to freeze up. I bought one, and literally the next load had a frozen pump. Got lucky on that one. #TankerYanker #LongHaulLife
The back of a semi truck parked on the street, the door to the pump house on the tanker is open
A plastic Proudly proclaims: "Since 1829 America's oldest brewery Found it by David g youngling operated continuously on this site by the youngling family since 1831.

A street shot, showing the back end of a Simi tanker, the Pennsylvania flag and the US flag over a dark street.
Delivering to America's oldest brewery tonight. Interesting place. #LongHaulLife #TankerYanker #Trucking.
The back end of the tanker trailer near a loading dock with the hose going into a wall. There is a red coffee cup sitting on the trailer
Not quite as picturesque a spot as before for my morning coffee, but they can't all be winners. Smells like money back here.

One Simi trailer sitting in foreground as a tanker flashes it's lights in the background
Two tankers side by side with their pump housings connected by hoses.
Twice this week I've had the pump die in this trailer, and twice I've had to wait for another driver with a working trailer to come and use their pump to offload. It's been a pain, but the drivers I've chatted with have been interesting. #LongHaulLife #Trucking #TankerYanker
