@Davy A. - I sent you an email at the email address in your bio! I'd love to chat further as you clearly have a lot of experiences to share!

I'd suggest I 80 in Wyoming for wind. It's one of the worst conditions we encounter.

US 50 and US 550 in Colorado for mountain driving. They are very formidable passes, both are over 11000 feet. Colorado mountain driving is definitely it's own element and you have magnificent scenery there. Really recommend you shooting up there. The Alaska thing is totally played out.

Desert driving is easy and we all have AC units. Although I 10 can get pretty windy and some sand storms out in Palm dessert. Also, I 15 through the Mojave can get ugly for wind. Usually the biggest issue with it is boredom though.

US 191 through Moab is stunning, same with 491 down through ship rock. Amazing at sunset. No cell coverage, or as I call it, peace and quiet.

The turnpike through PA is pretty sporting, has some great twisties in it. Fun empty, kind of a drag loaded. US highways back east are risky. Low bridges and tight turns in town.

Most of your fun filled turns and more difficult areas are on the US highways though. State highways are even more, but most carriers are going to route over interstates if the can.

Some other gold mines out west are Nevada state route 447. CA 128, and CA 89 through McCloud, 299 into Shasta.

SoCal has a lot of canyon roads but many are not truck routes. I have taken a few out of riverside and San Bernardino that got a few thumbs up from the local canyon carvers on bikes there. Of course there is the 18 and the 158, do get some really bad wind out of Boron.

Most of us are going to shut it down if the wind gets too bad, but it's relative. Your cameraman might be cleaning out his boxers riding with some of what we get used to.

Thanks Davy! We are definitely considering Wyoming and Colorado and appreciate all the insight!!

Thanks Jim! We would love to have your submission and hear your stories from the road!

Hello! Once drivers are selected, we will reach out to the trucking company listed by the driver in the form to arrange for permission and filming logistics. Of course, final participation of the driver will depend on cooperation from the trucking company they're employed with. We will primarily be focused on capturing the driver's journey on the road and will not likely need permission from the delivery customer to film on their property.

As for weather, we have a separate shoot happening in October for winter weather conditions in Alaska. For August, we are primarily looking to cover desert conditions (e.g. extreme hot weather, potential sand storms) as well as generally dangerous roads (e.g. highways known for sharp curves, remote conditions without cell service, etc.).

Hello!

I'm reaching out from a production company called AJAX CREATIVE as we're interviewing truck drivers all across the USA for a documentary-style campaign. We know drivers face immense challenges on their routes everyday - be it bad weather, steep roads, remote conditions, or overwork and fatigue. However, drivers overcome these challenges and continue to make the deliveries that keep our communities moving!

If you have a story to share where you faced these types of challenges, simply submit via the link below. Selected drivers will have a small film crew join their usual delivery route for 2-3 days in late August or early September. In return, you'll get: - $15 Amazon gift card for the first 100 drivers to submit - plus $750/day, if chosen, for your participation

We look forward to hearing your stories! Submission Formhttps://forms.gle/wLa8PVqTQSeLRk1E8
