2024 Freightliner Truck Tour 

No, a 389 is a "true beauty."

@@markroberts2114 I look for aerodynamics

All they ever have is a down sped motor to either 400-455hp and they need to add a option on prime trucks especially when you pass them they have their fog lights on with no fog and when those aren't on their high beams usually so when go to pass one and they don't dim them down the truck will sense it and dim them for them because they never have cbs to say hey dim ya high beams

Can't you order a new truck with a frig?

Thanks for watching! 👍

For our company driver you typically get to choose between what is available at the time.

Your right, for sure! 😎 Drifter

@@drifter19444 the Pete guys looked lost. They would of just showed a picture of the truck and said here’s the new 2024 Pete’s and for you drivers you will be stopping at almost ever Pete dealer along your route😂

I'm currently in a KW and am looking forward to getting out of it!

@Tranard Charles the side assist feature came in the middle of the model year so it is possible that your truck was earlier enough in the year it didn't receive one.

It sure is!

Yes, it is located under the large storage compartment behind the driver's seat. At 7:22 you can see the pull out in between the two compartments.

Find us on Facebook or Instagram and shoot us a message!

How do u like the digital dash ?

@user-fl7pw3vl3t it's cool but if u get the option all gauges are on radio and speedometer. U are able to control all the lights on radio it also have android and Apple car play. It connects to ur phone pretty quickly plus u can have the radio on without touching the key

@@hpowlman9114 sounds like u enjoying it, I drive a Volvo, let’s see how that digital comes on that new coming body

Trying to work with our Kenworth reps to set something up!

We have started installing them on all of our 2024 trucks. You can check out this video for more information on it! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7kp1rxhXVu4.html

Shaker or Peter truck? Why has it been in the shop?

Emmision and electrical issues?

@nobull4414 Shaker with CPC issues which is electronic

You already have one, it's in the shop.

@@markroberts2114 lmao. Not anymore🫠. But this new one has nice new features😉

Not to mention that disk brake pads are MUCH easier to replace than brake shoes on drum brakes. I know first hand from replacing linings on both types of brakes.

It was a cost and supply chain issue at the time. We had trouble getting rear disk brakes over the road and it was more cost-effective for the operator to not get disk brakes all the way around.

Option?

That is an option to add on. 😀

@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING ohhhhhhh

@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING can you be a company driver and get that option or is that only available for drivers that lease a truck

759295 SEMINOLE RED

Thank you!

Prime tested them on a few trucks and the smart option did not work for our operation.

@@jeremydunman4964 did they just malfunction? Apps malfunction too.. it would save lbs on the truck if it was an option.

Smart start option in ideal conditions. The apu in all conditions.

​@@sweetintegrityfulIf you have never been overweight due to the apu, weight is not an issue.

1650tq I believe

1750 lb-ft torque.

@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING okay. Thanks for helping us out!

@Trucking with Sam No problem!!

Volvo's have a higher maintenance cost, repair cost, break down rate, and lower resale numbers than Freightliners, so most fleets shy away from them.

They are all at the shop😈😜.

We are working with out Volvo Reps to get one set up!

@@Peruviantrucker true, got mine on October with 800 miles in it and is already by 70k miles haven’t had a single problem yet, I’m on top of the maintenance after certain amount of miles and the performance is phenomenal, goes up the hills and down smoothly and engine brake is way more stronger than freightliner’s believe it or not, difference is u feel every single thing from the cab in the freightliner, in a Volvo the feel is smooth! no repita lo que oye por ahí, móntese en cada camión y tenga su opinión propia en base a su experiencia, saludos

@@markroberts2114not true, I drive a 2023 Volvo for prime and haven’t had a single problem and I don’t think I will if I keep taking care of it the way I do! Peterbilts and Kw are the ones living rent free in the shop 😂😂😂

Hi! Can you please email un at communications@primeinc.com so we can get some more information.

Hello Chad. Thank you for wanting to keep us in the loop but it looks like this is not correct. No new law is being passed with the FMCSA regarding this.

Good luck finding an available motel every time you shut down for the night.

@@TheTallMan50 ok thanks

Good luck with that.

Hello! At 5:28 he talks about The curtains. He does say those go all the way around the windshield for privacy.

@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING didn't hear him ty

No problem! 😀 Have a good day!

They are nice!

Best two trucks I've ever been in. 2015 Pete ( with Prime) and 2003 Freightliner Columbia.

Usual troll

I bet you can sounds to me like you know nothing about running a business

Never lease one

You obviously didn't know what you were doing if you went broke

If you only make a $1k a week, that could be your fault.

I'd take a new one spec'd with a Cummins performance 605HP and an Eaton 18 auto.

nice truck but would like sunvisor and proper size engine

I had two Volvos with Prime. I regret the first one since it was EXPENSIVE to repair/fix. The second one was too big for one person.

Thanks for the feedback! We will keep that in mind for future videos.

😹😹😹

Totally different!!! Comes with led head lights, front curtains and more aerodynamics features, and side warnings.

same interior as a columbia 20 years ago nothing on those things have changed just a higher price tag of $222,000

Hi! We are looking into the technology no decision has been made yet. The only decision that has been made is that we are getting outward facing (aka a dahs cam).

That is a good thing.

Too expensive to fix.
