I just bought new GMC Sierra HD AT4X with Duramax. With all fees etc etc it came to like $140K CAD. That means those heavy haulers are actually really cheap, or pick ups are waaay overpriced.
From my experience the freightshakers are pretty good for long haul and are quite comfy and Pete's are well performing but less comfortable for what I was doing. Small cabs
Great video on American Trucks, I'm in the process of buying my second truck, it's another Peterbilt 579, with an 18 speed automatic and a Cummins ISX engine.
Explain to us why American trucks and semi-trailers do not have suspension lifting and lowering regulation like in European ones? There would be fewer accidents at railway crossings and viaducts due to the trailer blocking.
Hi to all, My favorite truck in this episode is none of them. If you want a superior truck you have to get these European Trucks Manufacturers Mercedes, Scania, Volvo, MAN, and DAF. These are better built and everything about them is awesome. There is no question in my mind that they are obviously superior than the United States counterparts in every aspect of the world truck industry. Peace to all.
@@gemini0118 You don't _work_ on them. You call a mechanic who is specalized in the brand you have. Then you just have to pay a lot of €€€€... Easy 😒 (Btw - I'm European).
@@doskuanov Both the angles and height on these steering wheels are adjustable for the best comfort for the driver. Yes, all new trucks are cabovers, except for a few trucks that are converted from coes to hooded. But they haven't always been. Before the 70's "normal" trucks (that's what we often called our conventional trucks) were more common than cabovers. And for example Scania made hooded trucks until 2005.
Paccar Engines SUCK we have a Fleet of 27 trucks 8 with Cummins and the rest with JUNK which are always in the shop for Engine Codes. We have both KW and Petes with the JUNK engines in them so it's not the trucks it's the engines and don't get me started and the Crap Automatic Transmissions. Buy a Cummins that's made out of Metal not a Paccar that's made out of plastic.
I will say there are a lot of older Peterbilts and Kenworths still on the road in the United States and Canada.
My favorite brand is Peterbilt because of their classic look on the 379/389 models. I love the dual straight pipe look.
My favorite semi truck is the peterbilt because i love the colors, interior, the engine and more
It must suck knowing that Australian's make better Kenworths and Mack's than Americans
My favorite truck is the one that's making me money!

I’m not a hater on Autos. Pete’s and Kdubs are my fave.
It reminds me of blacktop peterbilt in the movie blacktop 2000 it is about peterbilt
Where is Volvo and International
And WS

The cavalry is having them come back
I prefer the Western Star, the Detroid diesel, the interior and more
KW and Pete are the chit. FR.
BR transportador 💙 💛 💚 ❤️
Ford Aeromax 120
So since the Chinese owned Volvo and mack is owned by Volvo, does that means booth truck company is now Chinese.? 🤔
Only the car business of Volvo was acquired by the Geely group in China.
Peterbilt and Kenworth aren't the trucks they used to be. Neither is the rest
Paccar garbage Cummins X15 garbage money pit … just name left with Pete n Ken
Why didn’t you include International trucks ??
Included Here Who Makes The Semi-Trucks In America?

Yeap until it's time to work on them😂

Just Shut up
Seating on steering wheels will be hard on lower back. European trucks are all cabover I believe

Volvo is the best truck manufacturer in the US and they’re not even from around here 😃 that being said and MACK owned by them, MACK is the one!
Boring vid

We need at least Chinese trucks
One word, No Thanks
