Those big Yutes must be fun to drive and operate. Those are popular in mining operations. He is as passionate about trucks as you are Mike. Great video.
I just learned how to send comments to guys on RU-vid and I've been watching it a long time and I think your stuff was great and love to see them older trucks newer trucks whatever you especially with dump trailers and walking floors as I did a lot of that work my day thank you very much
My gramp was from cape cod William Herbert pierce. He didn't drive he was a mechanic said he was good. My other gramp trucked he had birth certificate in his truck so I could go to Canada with him. I've driven most my adult life over,2 country's
That red truck in the photo is that a White 9000? That's my dream to get one of those ol gals here down under. I want it with the 6V71 straight 6 2 stroke detroit diesel. So cool to see family generation trucking business just awesome! thanks for sharing. That Peterbilt is mint....wow!!
What, someone actually showed a standard hood, rather than a extended hood. And they look just as good as a extended hood. Low and behold, I have a ‘84 limited edition ‘Silver Class’ with a standard hood and sleeper extensions. One of only 80 built. Still rides as good as a extended hood. Good video sir. Hope to see you at Busted Knuckle in September. I’ll have the truck there. As I’m a part of the ATHS - Lone Star chapter.
My 1973 359 had that flat dash but mine was a set back front axle with that big aluminum bumper with a 350 and a 13, wish it was still around. Great video bud 👍
That was a nice video. Really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing it with us. After Mack truck Pete's are my 2nd most liked trucks... LMBO take care n keep them coming
@@TheBostonTrucker yes sir, Macks is all I grew up with. So yeah, hard to the core on Mack trucks. I went thru as phase with Kenworth, but not for long. After Mack sold their soul to Volvo I then went with Pete's
My uncle taught TJ Murphy how to drive a semi i used to run into TJ at Procter and Gamble and first national warehouse in somerville when he worked for Christy transfer that's a while back at the time I was working for Hemenway brothers out of Roxbury long time ago
a very class leading look at some gear, enjoy the history and old photo's, thank you As a side note, in Australia we can have double deck cattle trailers up to 15'1' or 4.6 meters and normal height trailers in Australia are around 14'9" or 4.5 meters Our trailers are generally shorter in Australia at around 45 - 50 feet, mine are 40'6" for a flat top and 40' for a cattle trailer Those are very impressive trucks, spotlessly clean and well maintained
That paint job as soon as I saw it I thought someone had bought a Benito tank lines truck and then you two were discussing that there was a trucking company on the west coast that had copied it. FYI Benito tank lines has gone out of business in California.
Awesome to see they've kept it going. He bent the frame hauling heavy and he's my generation...good see outlaw truckers of my generation still exist. Hell you can tell by his cb he's the real deal. Real truckers run big radios come on
That's way cool clean truck says for sure usually them traders haul anywhere from 60 to 100 yards of material I do that too the worst thing a mulching is tub grinding everything seems like it wants to catch on fire you have a good Sunday sir enjoy your day
@@duanethomasdirtpile5737 🤣🤣you ain't kidding, I was in the trailer signing out if our local mulch supplier, when half a stump came crashing through the roof
Peterbilt "A Touch of Class" Just need a beautiful well dressed high class woman to pose with it. Like the old adds in OVERDRIVE. it's got that short wheelbase for the 55 or 60 ft overall length. From way back when.
Think they had a freight terminal in south Boston , had a contract truck contract with Shaw’s market and ran lng out of Canada to Boston gas , under Christie trans. Present haul mulch to abington
Great video Mike, it's great how you go around and interview other truck drivers, I'm sure the appreciate the exposure. Was that a Hallamore shirt he was wearing? My shop teacher at the Voc Tech in Easton worked for them.
The old 72 Pete the sound of the 855 Cummins you don't hear that anymore, the old truck would have had a BC1 back in the day. The holset whistle. That is old school right there, you'd never see a new school driver be able to drive that truck they'd never be able to figure out a mechanical engine, jake stall the engine it would scare the schit out of them LOL.
Hi mike hope all is well I going to mess the name so your no mr grazzino he comes to the shop I work for fleet pride in Londonderry have a good day thank for the videos god bless
