After blowing the transmission in my hotshot rig for the third time this summer, I made the jump to running the cabover. Now that I have run it for a week, this is how things went- www.talonmachi...
Hello Kyle, nice looking COE, look forward to the next one. I have a 84' International 9670 with a BC III Bought it in 2017 and been working on it ever sense. HOOAH!!!
Hi Kyle. Just came across your videos. Man, it's great. Running an 85 cabover is awesome. I like the way you think of fixing your truck. Shout out from France. Take care. Keep on trucking.👍🚛
That cabover in the junk yard next to the white medium-duty international at 1.50 is a Peterbilt 372. Extremely rare! I would have bought and fixed it.
Sometimes you gotta make the traffic work with you. Happy to see it was just your mirror that got clipped. Sure is hard seeing in the dark. Tight spots like that I used to get out and make sure, the guy thought he had it. Nice to see you didn't whip the phone out and get in his face like some tik tok road warriors. Everyone makes mistakes if you drive long enough. And anyone that says they haven't is lying or new.
Loved the vid! Raw footage is interesting in the moment knee deep situations. I'm not much on the background music. I like to hear the scenes for what they are. That's why I watch. Long pauses of silence represent thought in situations that might require some good ole USA ingenuity. I see now why and how your front bumper corners got tweeked. Alot of defensive positioning involved in trucking. Even at a rest area when your not even driving. If you'd been sleeping he would've been gone by the time you figured out what happen to your truck. Glad he stopped! Looking forward to the next one. Thx!
@@kyle-kelliher I’m sorry Brother, I got one from them few years ago for $300. Didn’t know they went up. They were the aftermarket place to go at one time.
Forgive me for asking man, but I have wanted to do this as well, have you made your money back from buying the ole girl yet? Been worried about fuel prices and live able profits I guess
Well I have about $17,500 invested as of now. I’ve made about $2,000 of that back so far after all my fuel and insurance costs, of course I’ve only been running with it for a total of 8 days because i come home pretty often.
@@kyle-kelliher I appreciate your honesty man, I enjoy watching your channel and I’m glad I found it. I had some unfortunate events happen and I had to sell my 9670 Cab Over and never got to start my own thing unfortunately. So I’m hoping I can find me something soon and start chasing that dream of mine. It can be done and you are showing me that so thanks man!
