Only a day after posting my music video of this truck, I received word from Weirich that sadly, the driver had passed away due to a stroke in April, and another driver had been in his truck since then. I realized that it would only be appropriate if I made a proper video, one that paid a REAL tribute. This video is dedicated to said driver, George Bachman, for his +20 years of trucking with Weirich Enterprises. Although I never got to speak with him in person, I did have time to talk with him via C.B. radio while riding in the Western Star last year. Whenever he was on the radio, he was a friendly guy who you could easily talk and laugh with about anything. Another driver said he was one of my biggest fans at Weirich, and was always keeping on top of my videos, and making sure everyone else did as well. I won't lie, some tears were shed while editing this video. If it's not too much trouble, please leave a comment down below with thoughts and care for George, his family and his friends. Once again, thank you all so very much. You will be missed, George. Rest In Peace driver.
