GORGEOUS KENWORTH T800H LOWBEDDNG CAT 320D FM [Repost) 

I apologize for the delayed reply. Can’t believe I missed your comment. I’m also a fan of the T800H. Visibility is a slight issue but the operating pros outweigh the cons. Aggressive look, too. Thanks for watching the video. Greatly appreciate it.👍😎

Thanks for watching the video! I appreciate the kind words! Listening to the trucks work is part of the video's appeal. If ever I have music it will be to open or close the video. Not during the trucks gearing up and rollin' on. Thanks again for watching the video.

Thank you for watching the video. Greatly appreciate your viewership. I hope to video more lowbed trucks soon. Logging is in full swing, winter the perfect season for logging. Forestry equipment need to be moved. Thanks again for watching. Greetings from Vernon, British Columbia. Merry Christmas!👍

@@coolbigrigs Many thanks, merry Xmas to you and your fellows too 👍!

Wow -- thank you so much for the supportive words! A few large cities peppered here and there among the beautiful mountain wilderness. A lot of big rig traffic up here in beautiful British Columbia. Thanks again for the kindness and viewership.

I agree! This is one beautiful T8H! There are many still running around British Columbia. The H was a popular option during its time. Thanks for watching!

Thank you too!👍👍😎

I agree - this T800 is one fine lookin' piece of machinery! Usually this color is not the most appealing on a truck but this two tone combination stands out. The camera I use is a generic GoPro 4: Silver edition. I film at: 1080p, 60 fps. it takes very clear video but I usually find a way just to mess things up. LOL. If I'm not accidentally shaking the camera I'm accidentally making unwanted noises that show up in the movies. Thank you for watching the video. Your comments are greatly appreciated!

Hopefully prices will reduce soon.👍🙏

The Jeep was in the raised position for this load. An extra axle is not required to haul this weight of equipment. So many regulations truckers have to learn and abide to. The public has no idea the knowledge truckers must have to be legal and safe.

I appreciate the kind word! Thank you for your viewership!

i havent been there but here in the states there are plenty of low-height obstacles to contend with, especially if you're a local guy hauling your boss' equipment from site to site. Not to mention the utility companies hang wires at the lowest possible height (phone & TV cables are regulated to 14ft in residential/rural areas) Most local moves don't require escort so nobody is there to move those obstacles. So the lower you can get the load to the ground, the lower your chances of an expensive repair bill from the phone company! Not to mention many of our highways are in less than desirable condition, so lowering the center of gravity as much as possible is every bit of a safety measure as making sure enough chain is used. I've avoided about a dozen frame-out situations over train tracks by simply taking the 45 seconds to stop and raise my neck height setting and trailer suspension setting, and if it still looked questionable i found another route to where i was going.

Our maximum height a 4.25m which is about 14 feet, we don't have to have escorts to sort out any low wires, just be careful. It seems awfully slow having to pull the goose neck out of the way then load and then reconnect the gooseneck on the tractor, a lot of our areas there isn't the room to do this without walking down the road, other vehicles or simply cant get past the trailer.

SuperMrcat I agree, looks bloody hard on the drive line while hooking back up when its loaded too.

SuperMrcat well see Australia is nothing but flatland desserts and have no worries of underpasses or big trees we have a limit to height thats why we have extra steps

Thank you! Your comment is much appreciated!

There is a lot of physical work when it comes to trucking. The majority of people only see trucks hauling down the highway. People don’t see the loading and unloading process which is hard work. I appreciate you noticing the hard labour which goes into trucking. Thank you for watching. 👍😀

MarkM Jr. That's huge compared to what we get in Europe..... 2ft x 6ft cushion behind the seats!

HANK CLINGINGSMITH - Yes I couldn't believe how he pushed the trucks rear axle into the trailer to hitch back up to the fifth wheel. Agree with you......

With a trailer that heavy it takes so much power to get the fifth wheel under the trailer that by the time its under sometimes you slam the pin. It happens. not a 38,000 van. hook a 90,000lb load sometimes you bang the pin. I haul 85-93000 every single day i know the struggle lol

Why did he disconnect the 5th wheel? I usually see them just reconnect the gooseneck to the trailer. For example another similar video from this channel titled "BEAUTIFUL KENWORTH T800 LOADING JOHN DEERE 850J "ROB" BULLDOZER - (Short Video Version)" Looks a very similar setup - quite curious why this guy had to disconnect at the 5th wheel?

You mean for ground clearance? If it's an issue the trailer can be raised higher using the airbags to lift the back higher and the neck attachment can be adjusted to raise the front in the same way it picks it up off the ground to begin with.

Its too heavy for train tracks it will brake those tracks😂😂😂😂

Thank you for watching. I appreciate your viewership!🙏👍
