Thank you, very much! I've been watching your channel for a couple of years now, I have a ton of respect for the work you put into your videos, I know its not as easy as it looks.
Love the truck I have a 93 freight liner cabover, but just some friendly advice if you Carrie a generator in yo pick up truck and just plug it up for about 45 minutes it would start a whole lot easier. That is extremely hard on your starter and batteries starting that truck like that all the winter time. And your cables. I bet they where on fire doing it like that. Again just a little info from a 37 years in the trucking game veteran. Been owning my own trucks for the past 28 years. But love the truck
Enjoy watching and hope to hear more from you about trucking man. I’m wanting to put my 1980 Freightliner Cab Over to work as well but have been to anxious 😬
Greetings from Pennsylvania! Keep them videos coming! Rona sure is a beautiful truck. You guys should check out FSC Trucking from Wisconsin. He got a 1984 Peterbilt 362 cabover named Orwell.
Just came across your videos, very interesting and enjoyable.I drove trucks in the Uk for 45 years and recently retired.I enjoy watching how other countries do it.I have been to America and Canada on holidays,and I. Soon realised that trucking in North America is a lot more complicated than in the Uk.Stay safe.
When I'm editing it seems like the video drags on without music. I am trying to make the music quieter so you can here the truck better, unfortunately it sounds much louder on phones and T.V. than it does in editing. I will keep trying to find a good balance. Thanks for watching.
The only Freightliner COEs I got to drive was back in 89/ 90 when I did a Extra board stint with Consolidated Freightways those old girls had a million miles or more those old death traps were Cummins & Cat 6 spd 7 spd I was told they had some 13 spd but I never encountered one CF. Folded Labor Day 2002 they were a very good company just some poor decisions at the top echelon level and the juggling of multiple companies like Conway & Emery air I loved that job but just could not get on the regular roster well thanks for listening be safe pulling those hoppers because I know that corn is like liquid in there and cause surge
@FarmBoyTransport could probly put a gopro in there pretty easily, or one of those window suction cup mount things. That's what I used to record a few videos though they were never posted here on youtube. Really nice truck though
i hope to haul grain,for a local farmer here in webster,ny. tho i have hauled everything besides grain,i would be interested in more loading procedures. i used to drive freightliner c/o older than you.
I will show more of the loading next time. I had recorded some of the augers operating but didn't put it in, didn't think people would be interested. Thanks for watching.
Wat part of Iowa y'all from ...I seen the Iowa plate on ole girl. I'm from Lacona Iowa grew up on a farm south east of town and we had an old k whop cab over and I still have it in my shop and love the looks of urs. I see u was on interstate by Cedar Rapids
Im from up by Waterloo. Always liked that truck. Like the “Callan” painted logos too, I had Ed do my truck last summer. Also, what do you use for a camera?
Sometime when you have a shop day take your tire spoon or long bar and see if that fifth wheel is loose I think you will be shocked with all that movin around it is doin just sayin it might make a big difference watch the video you see why I commented That is a nice truck cold start was cool most people think you turn the key and go did you have glow plug BE SAFE GRAIN HAULER
What airbags are on that cab over there not oem I’ve heard that a kw bag will interchange would love to have a part number so I can put a set on my 86 fLC
Thae are a Kenworth air bag, I don't know the part number, but anything from the 80s or 90s will work. You will have to make a plate to go under them, mine didn't and I blew a couple, wish i would have wrote the part number down. Not sure if you have a Cab Mate on yours, this is the number of of my FLC. Model 2240A000 Lot No 0285765
