Just some random clips I took with my GoPro Hero 3+ Silver Edition on a trip in my Kenworth road train, powered by a Caterpillar 3408 V8. This trip took me from Melbourne to Perth to Port Hedland to Darwin and back to Melbourne.
A light load of tower crane sections, only about 9 tons a trailer, giving a gross weight of about 50 tons. Normally my gross weight would be about 80 tons or 180,000 lbs
.
You can see the trailer cut-in with 2 trailers, you can imagine the cut-in with 3 trailers with a triple roadtrain.

The Cat 3408 has such a great sound. And speaking of Caterpillar engines, is it me, or do the 3406, 3406B and 3406E engines sound a bit different from even the early C15?

Electronic engines always seem to sound a bit quieter than mechanically injected engines.

Just like everyone else says... Love the sound of that big old V8. I hope this is the way you always drive (steady pace and not too much strain on the engine) and not just a show for the camera. Makes you an operator and not just a steering wheel attendant. Great work, and can't wait to see more!

Nice filming, your shots are excellent and good lord the sound when the gears are shifted, when you press the accelerator, the beautiful puff of diesel inspired exhaust soot, the engine and exhaust note, the whistle of the turbo ...oooh my. Forgive my rambling, only a dedicated trucker & diesel enthusiast would understand. Btw your rig despite the at times harsh off tarmac driving conditions is clean, I noticed how relatively clean your trailer tyres were in the initial shots.

My hat is off to the people who drive these machines. Australia has some geographical peculiarities that make it uneconomic to criss-cross the country with railways. These trucks are the red blood cells of the Australian economy. And the sound of that cat grumbling through the gears is mesmerizing. And (going back to the Stuart Highway in the mid 70s) being overtaken by one of these beasts on corrugated dirt roads with ruts nearly a metre deep full of bulldust and sections of pea gravel which are the reason small vehicles must keep the speed down in the first place... terrifying and exhilarating... Oh, yeah, add dust storms or rain to the equation.Respect to all truckies.

Kenworth and Peterbilt belong to Paccar, and Mack belongs to Volvo. Sad.
@vanjakukec9863
@vanjakukec9863 7 лет назад
You don know that most American truck manufacturers are owned by European companies. Mack is owned by Volvo. Freightliner and Western Star are owned by Daimler. International is owned by Navistar which is US based but operates in many countries. Peterbilt, and Kenworth are owned by Seattle based Paccar which also happens to own DAF. Basically they use common components among their different lines, so Freightliner will use Daimler made components in their trucks and Macks uses many Volvo powertrains etc. .

Caterpillar set the fuel racks on the dyno when the engine was rebuilt many years ago. It was 550 HP at the wheels so around 600-610 at the flywheel.
