What Season 1 Ice Road Trucker Do You Miss Most?


Now that Season 2 of Ice Road Truckers has started, we’ve seen that a few of the Truckers from Season 1 aren’t on the show this time. Two of my favorite truckers were TJ Tilcox and Jay Westgard.

Which of these guys do you miss most? TJ or Jay? Leave a reply and let us know what you think!

    They were both awesome Tj was awesome for a rookie compared to Drew, and Jay was great to watch especially how we got to see his family as well. but i wont get to see season 2 for ages. because i am in Sydney. =(

    They were both great to watch. TJ’s new experiences on the road were always insightful, while Jay’s experience led to some intense moments. Each has their own style, but both enjoyable to watch. Kind of wishing HC was back in Yellowknife for the second season as well. TJ and Jay made for a well-rounded group to watch. Wish they were on this year too.

    I miss both of them. I liked TJ becasue he never backed down, not even when he had those internal injuries. He showed us what a rookie is capable of if they put their mind to it and also showed us that the money isn’t what counts; it’s the experience. Jay was a great guy and he never gave up either, especially when his daughter had Pneumonia. I wish of them were in this year. You never know. Maybe they’ll be back for a Season 3!

    I cannot even watch the show now that JAY isn’t on it!! I HAVE to know what happened to him???? He was such a nice guy and seemed to be really in to his family……….geesh……….Everytime I start to like something……..something or someone that Makes the show……disappears……..Come on Jay……where are you???

    I believe Jay is still working at Diavik.

    Thanks, MartinK……..It helps a little…..I really miss him. He always left me (Jay) with the feeling that THIS man will do anything….for his family that he loves. I just hope and pray that he reaps the rewards of his labor of love. He is an Ice Road Hero in my eyes. TJ too…..they are missed!!

    Indeed Judy they are! I wish they could be back again. Like I said, maybe they’ll be back for a Season 3!

    Cheers, Mieke…..Maybe if Jay and TJ and the Producers know just how many fans they have they will make them an offer they cannot refuse!! I certainly hope so.
    Also, I am wondering what is up with Rick and all the trucks that break down….seems to me sometimes that he really doesn’t need or want the job he has …and YES…I could be wrong..LOL (maybe he just has VERY bad luck) What is going on with him?

    Another thought…..I DID say before that I am not watching this season, however I did record the ones so far and HAVE watched them since I wrote that……but certainly not with the same enthusiasm! I watch now for Alex who is to be admired…what a very good, decent man he seems to be. Hugh just rubs me the wrong way. I like a little sarcasm…..but he goes way to far and comes off as an egotistical BORE…(just my opinion)

    Yeah, I’m not watching the 2nd Season either, but not through my own choice though: I live in England so it hasn’t come across the pond yet! I have watched the first episode and the Next Time… trailer really did push me to want to see who isn’t going to last the season and end up in an ambulance with electrodes stuck to their chest.
    Unfortunately, beacuse TJ and Jay are no longer in the series, I am not too inclined to follow, but remember that the Tibbit to Contwoyto road is no longer allowed to be filmed. Maybe we should do a petition…?

    Yeah, a Petition! Sounds great…..so how do we get it started? Through an email?

    You are right….they won’t allow cameras on last year’s road. Maybe Jay and TJ just didn’t want to drive the one they are on this year…..who knows?

    Petitions can be started by email. I think it would be better to discuss this in further detail. How about if I give you my email?

    That would be fine Mieke. I think we need to get this petition going now, as I am sure they are already making plans for next season.

    OK Judy, my email is theaterfreak(at)googlemail(dot)com. We can find somewhere to get this petition started up!

    Missed Jay & TJ very much this season. They should do a follow up on the drivers every season, especially when something happens. It is nice to know where the old drivers went and what condition Alex is in. Great show!!
