    James, that’s amazing. That is not the surprise I was expecting. Never in my wildest dreams would I have ever thought that a Mormon cab and sleeper would fit in a U-Haul truck. But you did it. Awesome job brother glad you made it safely.👍👍👍

    we rented one of those U-Hauls 25 years ago, a GMC, it needed several gallons of transmission fluid on the trip from Charleston to Atlanta. All of these gas trucks suck. I wonder if the pieces would fit in a tall sprinter van? much more efficient.

    What really sucks about the darn Uhaul trucks is there is no cruise control. That would help a little with fuel mileage, but noooo they want your foot to hurt from holding the pedal down.

    Man I was getting anxious just listening to you verbalizing your anxiety on the way to get the marmon parts 😂
    Glad it all worked out, can't wait to see the transformation
    Must say, the operator did a pretty good job of going slow and smooth. Also props to the farmhand for giving up his bed to keep that sleeper safe. Now he's gonna have to bed them town girls in the dirt. I'm sure the next vid will reveal how it worked but I think it'll be OK.
    Maybe not ideal, but the best adventures never go perfectly as planned.

    Now just think how much more could one rig burn in fuel if this one right on the fender says "Fuel saver"!! That kind of mileage reminded me of the old time FWD truck I drove. It was around a nineteen forty model rig and got a half mile to the gallon... but fuel cost about a nickel a gallon for gasoline.... highway cars and trucks paid ten cents at the pumps. One other thing tho was wages were around sixty five cents a hour also.

    I guarantee this is a first that a U-Haul truck like this has ever had a Marmon cab, fuel tank or tanks and a sizable semi truck sleeper inside the box. What an experience this load was. She is maxed out! I wish you a positive trip back south.

    Hi James found the parts for Betty! Cool thing is they look to be in great shape. Actually think the red interior looks nicer probably easier to clean too. Been many moons since I drove a U-Haul doesn’t sound like they’ve changed much. Stay safe

    • @JamesPretty
      @JamesPretty  Před 2 měsíci +1

      ya brother I think it'll be nice and save me some time doing all the other sleepers body work. also gives me a chance to sand blast the frame further up and also pressure wash further up

    • @JamesPretty

      I think mostly because it’s like 5000$ more to put the diesel engine in and maintenance is higher cost as well.
