Really boosts the road experience knowing there's some dude driving an 18 wheeler with his air ride seat down in the basement and trying to act all gangsta with the lean and just barely able to see over the dash board.
Looks TOTALLY STUPID, LIKE THE MORON BEHIND THE WHEEL
I don’t think you understand how many guys drive this way.. tell me how many times you’ve seen trucks that look like this involved in crashes…. 🙄🤔
@@caseythetrucker I've got ten years experience driving 18 wheelers as a professional road driver for, at the time, the third largest trucking company in the US. I'm speaking from actual experience, not talking out my backside.
@@hobo1452 so you drive for swift and are mad because guys take pride in their ride and drive how they’re comfortable? I’ve got just as many years as you and I drive on the floor and have yet to have an accident or replace a bumper. Let’s compare driving records 🤷🏼♂️
@@caseythetrucker The problem with arguing with a fool is that they never know when to stop. You have yourself a good day there, super trucker.
$250k for a new Peterbilt sounds like a terrible idea. Find a pre-emission truck, get it squared away and keep trucking.
Hes not going to buy anything man lol how many has he test drove in the past
Yup fuck that new trucks with their DEF systems
New trucks aren’t as reliable as the older iron . No emissions crap and way easier to work on too
Finding a pre emission truck getting harder to find everyday
@@w900kw2 haha...doooh
My dad had a 1985 Western Star Gold Star edition with the 3406B Cat engine. It was turned up and putting out close to 500 hp. It had a muffler delete and would pump out the black smoke like no tomorrow and get at best 3 miles to the gallon. I miss those days with him. Every time I hear the sound of an old cat engine at idle or at speed it makes me reminisce on those times together. Thanks for giving me a trip down memory lane.
I'd get a older pre-def truck with a cat motor. If it has high mileage do a in-frame service and it should be good for another million miles plus
My 2000 kw w900l has a 3406e cat with custom heavy haul tune, injectors and turbo. Pulls hard on hills at 80k 52 mph I love it
Good looking 359 , but that slung back and low seating would drive me up the wall.
Agreed.
Not for long haul driving, one of the most comfortable truck's to drive for those 600-800 mile days
Agreed I'd rather have the regular seating . I'd look like a 10yr old riding on the floor like that plus that's gotta be hard on the back. I'd rather ride high easier to see in my opinion but it could be that I'm too old school lol
I like how all y’all complaining about it have be the sounds of it never driven like that…. It’s comfy af
@@lockgessner I personally have no desire to drive one set up like that either. Just my opinion
Beautiful piece of machinery, but that seating position does not do it for me LOL, how the hell can you see anything it’s beyond me😂😂😂
you know the dudes a professional when he doesn't even look where hes going 🤣😎
Man sitting on the damn floor😂 I love it lol
I bet your buddy Tim can find you one of those if you give him some time to look for one.
That cabover sounds amazing
That Peterbilt 359 was in Waco Texas couple years back at a truck meet!
BOVINE LIMOSINE right there . "Nickel 9" (359) long hood dragging a" Wilson " silver star spread axle...nice sled hand .
See it got the big hole in sleeper & converted from air windshield wipers to electric ( can tell by the small aluminum washer tank mounted on driver side firewall under hood ). Both VERY smart modifications ...🐂🐂🐂🐂
This working 359 is such a beautiful Thing.Love it.Greetings from Germany😎🇩🇪...!
I couldnt drive it sittin that far down no way
That's the only way id drive an old 359 . You got the the cab and bunk opened up.......nice!
That's one sweet 359 truck. You need one to add to your collection. You look good driving It!
Those are some good 👍 times Raseing Hell with your Boy .Good Times keep 👌 on Trucking
I’ve been loving long nose trucks since was a kid. I had a race track with all long nose trucks and loved it.
Glad to see you back at it Bruce!!! So awesome! That 359 is such a seeeeexy looking truck! Hope the fam is doing good, your a good man Bruce, keep up the awesome content brother! Much love from central Massachusetts.
Live in Western Massachusetts myself
The 359 was such an awesome truck and the 2nd truck I ever drove by age 15 in '95.. The 1st was my father's '70 White-Freightliner COE that we fully restored yrs later. Then I got into the 379/X many years later as a mechanic and after being in the industry my entire life.
Now that's a real man's truck 💯
Man those two rigs seating side by side look killer freaking love the older rigs true trucks in my eyes .
I have always hated window shopping myself, lol, that's one nice rig for sure, now go find yourself one of these fine rigs Bruce, and thanks for sharing.
Really glad you're back Bruce really enjoying your videos brother
He’s got everything but a CB, get some LONG antennas and that truck is GOLDEN!
Nothing but some bullshit on there now anyway lol
Love that your back bruce.... that 359 should have a white marble floor with black grout
Great to see you back Bruce
That's is a beautiful truck. Not dirty, working!
All the old timers I’ve met say if you had deep pockets, a big ego and wanted to go fast back in the golden years of trucking you’d go for a long hood large car with a big yellow kitty under the hood, but behind the scenes the 855 Cummins and 318 Detroit were what really put in the work.
That 359 brings back good memories for me. Last time I drove an 18 speed I was 16 and having a blast.👍👍
1st time I drove one was through NJ and I was 13😆
Thanks for another great video thanks Bruce I love the 359 thanks again
That 359 is so beautiful.
Nice Pete! Thanks for sharing
Hi from uk bruce and crew at home👋 blue collar will get sorted bit by bit lol but that 359 is 💓😍💓 thos stacks get me everytime nice to see you both sharing the love between truckers man and paint job on 359 is crisp clean!! Love how he drove her to like any more layed back he be horizontal 😂 but nice unit man thanks for your time and be safe see you soon 👋
Damn Bruce gotta admit you even sound healthier and happier glad to have you back!
Glad to see you back bruce
Very nice ol 359 Pete and really good engine as well can't beat a 3406b cat those and ol big cam cummins are by far my favorite older engines and they are easy to work on.besides them a old Detroit 60 cant be beat.thanks for the video and keep up the good work and God bless
Can’t beat them b model cats or a big cam Cummins they don’t die lol millions of miles on those motors and still run like brand new!
Yea we got a pete with 3406b here on the farm. Not a lot of power but its a freakin tank. Cant kill it.
@@colsonmyers9338 Those BIG Cams are a lost and dying breed man...Most don't even know what they are nowadays 👊
@@dieseldabz7104 that’s the sad part
@@ballsoutperformance yea 400,425 horsepower wasn’t a lot but would still get you down the road
Nice Trucks. Like them both. Special place 🤍 for Cabover. Thanks for the great content! 👍 🇺🇸
359 Still...Kickn'-it . good to see.
weird driving position, must be one hell of a blind spot in front..
It doesn't have to be a brand new truck for you to feel safe out on the road. I would save $200000. Go get an older pre emissions truck with the size sleeper you need for the family and go through the drive train.
I grew up in trucks like this one and wouldn't have traded it for anything.
Pre emission cost has went thru the roof
Love those old trucks you have class
Love the interior too, still got that classic look!
Lots of people saying Bruce should get a 359 here. Sure, they're certainly available. They're also at least 35 years old, with all the problems a 35 year old truck will have. Beat to death, hacked by God knows how many sketchy hands, rotted, twisted, cracked; the list of maladies is endless for the affordable ones. The cost to buy one in the condition this one is in will probably start around $75,000, and could still be hiding expensive problems. I'm all for the old iron; I detest what the dealers are peddling these days. But to think it's just a matter of handing over the cash and BINGO, your 359 is ready to put 100,000 miles on in a year without a problem is foolish. I bought a new Western Star / 3406B in '85, and I worked on that truck virtually every weekend. That was a brand new truck. Add 37 years & 2½ million miles to it and you can imagine the amount of maintenance it'll require. Just be careful and wise.
Awesome Bruce I have to agree with you about blue collar I wouldn't give him up
G'day Bruce that 359 peterbilt is beautiful looks cool as great video keep up the good work all the best keep on trucking latter
Welcome back bro, repping all the way from Jamaica 🇯🇲
Both are nice trucks!!
How can you drive sat on the floor when you can't see over the steering wheel
That’s a gorgeous 359 boys expect nothing less from ah bull hauler “Class”
Nice looking truck I just found one in good shape for $26000 it’s 1985. Love the old trucks brings back memories.
You had me at 359
Kap, has always driven the nicest trucks lol almost worked with him hes a extremely nice guy!
Love the sound of those old Cats
Old trucks are just as clean an useful as new trucks an can even be optioned out the same or better!!! Absolutely love his truck very nice an blue collar rules!!!!
Good to have you back
That’s what you need Bruce 💪🏻👍👍
Gorgeous looking 359
great stuff glad someone told me about this page
Mate the trucks in the USA are so small just little city combos go and look how they do it in Australia 3 and 4 40ft trailers is how it’s done
i love your cabover bruce and that 359 SHEEEESH but keep on trucking good buddy!
Truck looks amazing
Dude glad to see u back....I've been conserned....it had been a lot
Been trucking all my adult life. Bought a brand new 359 with a B model Cat in December of 1984. Ran it border to border and coast to coast for 10 years almost 2 million miles. Then bought a new 379 with a E model Cat….In 2000 bought a 379 with a C-15 550 hp….That one was a certified member of the “Left Lane Gang” ! When Cat stopped making truck motors we lost the….King of the road !
Your full of shi%
Exactly 💯
Beautiful truck!!
The 359 Pete is an awesome truck, but get one that has the raised roof on it. You will enjoy it. Especially when you take your family with you.
This is the way to do it . Build your rig . Lots of pride in the product !
I’d say that’s one of if not the nicest 359 iv ever seen.
The semi that love is the cab over international in the early 90s can’t remember the year but use to hear those idling you hear the turbo Whistling 😗 sweet😎👍🤙
Sweet 359 🤯that jake 👍🏻, I used to have a 3406 b jakes plus brake saver 15od ,46,000lbs rears big six suspension,Dayton wheels , 30 ton riggin in a 1977 kw lw 924 bush cab and butterfly hood with a protruding rad,fathom blue red pin stripes, white sash BC Canada log truck, mr cat had air power windows , was a nice feature lol . Eewww weeee it was one hell of ride 😎

Glad to hear that Blue collar is staying put the old mascot of the Bruce Wilson channel
That 359 with that Cat motor is Gorgeous , Iam in love
Bruce I wanted to congratulate you and Amber expecting a 2nd baby Wilson!
Love that 359 Cat 3406B, classic!!
That's a nice truck I have a 94 379 Pete with 370 gears and a 15 speed transmission. How much hp are you making with the 3406b I want to get a little bit more out of mine.
Can he see over the dash?
No lol
I haven't seen a video from you in a long time this is the 1st one that showed up!
Sick looking trucks
I was looking at your instagram post on it and I am pretty sure I saw him going down the interstate in Mauston Wisconsin today
good afternoon bruce and i enjoy your channel and peterbuilt stay safe from rensselaer indiana
Ain't know better feeling than Peter mobile N old school the way to go. Hey talk Timmy G out of that classic plenty room for the family
Wow what a sweeeet 359,I haven't seen alot of those!!
Forget the new that's a classic and a classy way to go....
The pete looked sick!
Awesome truck, awesome interior but the driver seat seems to be rather low and kind of far back, but I guess whatever's comfortable.
Awesome video Uncle Bruce
That thing is bad ass and a long hood ooh Corvette dash nice
Man sweet Pete. But dang idk how he drives that thing being so low.
Doesn't look safe to me.
Man that 359 is beast especially with that ol B model Cat I bet she don’t do nothing but keep getting right on up
Really nice Pete
Bruce I am glad you r back man ever one has done stuff in there life man you keep on doing what you r doing the whole 🌎 in front and your family
I started imagining the smell of the bull rack lol
Nice looking Peterbilt
Badass,rigg man very nice truck,tell Austin S. I said get to work.lol😁
Beautiful truck but that seat looks like it would keep your back arched and cause issues in the long run but it’s his truck and not mine so maybe it fits him perfectly!
Looks comfy tho gangster lean dream!
That was a nice freightshaker cabover
Love that 359
you can go to the Peterbilt graveyard and pick a 359 one up they have several to pick from and a really nice for my big sleeper on it 379 in there too
Bruce if you’re coming to the flywheelers show while it’s on stop if you can I’m on the end of row 55 by the John Deere guys exhibit, i got a bunch of garden tractors would like to meet you. Glad you’re back ole son!
We are row 64 spots 16-18
That Peterbuilt a nice truck but the Freightliner sounds better.
Sweet Pete!
