Wow Mike I didn’t see this part of the video only the first part when you where driving the automatic Kenworth this is your truck fantastic good luck Mike she’s a beauty
Thanks Eddie 👍
. Mike it's going to be finished soon and your going to be happy and I am sure that you will be trying to keep it sparkling and you are what every company needs to succeed especially with work ethics
You’ll have it looking mint!…you know what’s hot for northeast trucks!…I like the black on the tanks…think the painter shat the bed on the hood a little…should of rolled the white over more…you can see a body line in the red on the side of the hood…just my observation, maybe once it’s done up with the pin stripes it’ll look proper….I know your thinking the same thing!…great video!
Beautiful truck Mike it'll look nice when it's done cardello's trucks all look nice more videos with Anthony cardello 2024😊
Love the new rides I make the t800 and the w900l hoods for the new kenworths in Abingdon Virginia I hope you enjoy them.
Excited to see the finished truck it's going to be really nice!!!!!! Really like the new England pin stripes 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
When my old company Central Penn Transportation bought a bunch of brand new KW's back in 2,000 they were brand new Anteaters, daycabs with CB's and Cummins engines and 10 speeds. I think we got 15. Fully loaded. Still have a few rumbling around with over a million miles on them. Yes! They came with the smart wheel at the time! Nice looking, riding comfortably.
Anxious to see the progress on your new truck! Your old-school mentality will make this truck a classic, c'mon!
That's some pretty sweet looking big boy toys👊😎
Mike you gotta keep the stock bumper just add a swing plate and some white kenworth flaps. And a red lexan bug shield on the hood. Would really look sharp.🤌🤌
Looks great already. Will look really sharp when it’s done!😊
Trying to shift into first after backing out😂 your new truck is going to be beautiful! Can’t wait to see it on the rd!
I noticed also 😂
What did I do now?
Just when you were reversing in the automatic when you went to shift to drive instead you went to shift . Made me laugh bc it shows how much we love to drive. It’s repetitive after years.
Awesome truck Mike, congratulations.
I personally love your new truck and I support you every step of the way on this amazing journey and on the next amazing journey for all eternity 😊😊
Looks good. I personally would rather polished tanks. But no ones opinion really matters as long as the owner and you are happy with it. That's all that matters. Best of luck with it.
What's weird is I'm not a fan of painted tanks like ever but the words came outta of my mouth, paint them.
That’s a beautiful truck , I can’t wait until it’s finished, Rolling art 👊🏻. Congrats and best of luck with her !
Absolutely gorgeous new trucks ….personally I would not change the bumpers or the stacks ….no stupid buckets to keep rain out ….cant wait to see it finished and on the road ….i know you’ll keep it gleaming clean because that’s who you are ….keep up the great work and enjoy those new rides !!!! 💪☝️👊
Great video love the new truck cant wait to see it finished
Glad for you. Truck is beautiful, gorgeous interior. You sure deserve it! Would have went with matching Grey buttons. Great video Mike, thanks.
Thanks for keeping us in the loop. Red frame, red tanks…love it
I got to be honest with you mike i think the black end on the tanks look great also the flat glass just does it for me it looks mint i trust your plans and cant wait to see it finished you must have been over the moon driving it for the first time i originally didnt like the idea of the angled back stacks but seeing them now they look good because their still high i would just want to run that dummy pipe and make them true duals thats probably the only thing i would change im so excited for you buddy cant wait to see the finished product
Thanks Nick I appreciate your thoughts man!💪💯
Nice truck Mike. Thx for the ride
I love the tanks how they came out. I love polish tanks but they are a workout to keep them bright. Been painted is the way to go. Can't wait to see your vision of the truck finished
Congratulations Mike!
Sweet truck!
I’m still not sold on all the white buttons but to each their own…
Me neither
That W9 is one beautiful truck! The 800 is sharp too. Brand new is always great feeling in any vehicle. Like the extended cab. I drove a Frieghtshaker with a " daybed'" once for a week as a loaner. It didn't have a bunk, although some drivers were using them as local delivery sleepers by putting a cot mattress on the floor and napping during pickups and deliveries. The extra room was good for straps and tools. Your's will be completely different when you're done with it. Congratulations to all of you!
Mike, he did an awesome job with the paint👍👍👍
Without the visor on the w900 it has a look kinda like the old p.i.e. Trucks. Kinda cool change your square fender lights out for some round lollipops haha
Oh yeah you're totally right about PIE
The truck is awesome, can”t wait to see the end result. I’ve never had a new truck to work in, enjoy, you deserve it! Thanks for taking us along on your journey.
The first time I sat in an extended cab, I didn’t think the seat went back too much further either, but I have a lot more room at the clutch with getting my big hoof to push the pedal. It definitely goes back further. It just doesn’t seem like much. Grateful for mine and miss it when I’m in a regular cab
They are very nice trucks I love the red color and the tanks painted can't wait till it's all done. Thanks for sharing, Mike
Loved the stick wave 😂😂😂❤
🤣🤣
Great looking truck!
Will look even better when its done!
Wish we still had conventionals over here…
If you look at the front of your new W900, the way the stacks are pointing back and the flat glass with no visor it almost looks like Bandit’s W900. I know the colors are different, that truck was a flat glass and had a very very small visor on it. Needs the round headlights! Looks awesome man!
Umm helloooo😁 whenever someone tells me I'm going to need to turn the stacks out I point to the Snowman's truck 💪💯
That opening scene of the movie where he starts it up and it’s blowing smoke out of those stacks! Classic
@@TheBostonTruckerdon’t lose your head son, we still got a lot of boogieing to do!!
“We gonna introduce ‘em to the boy. So move on over good buddy, because the Snowman is comin’ through!”
Feels so nice driving automatic 😂 but must feel weird at the same time
You have a Beautiful truck, Can't wait till you have finished personalizing it !!
Can’t wait to see it on the road! Looks awesome already!
You and me both!
Paint the ends of the air cleaners black to match the tanks that would be sweet brother 👍🏻
Hmmm 🤔
You should definitely take it to sh tube so they can trick it out for you. Those guys are old school truckers that have pride in their work!
Agree, also good vid content for 2 fellow you tubers. Plus we get bonus vid of the road trip 🤔
We don't leave the State hardly though never mind go to Kentucky but it's a great idea, they're stuff is top notch, I'm a fan!
I'd love that!
I like the white buttons with the white hood 👍🏼 works perfectly 👏👏👏
It was a bold decision thanks
@@TheBostonTrucker engine brake is the buttons on the wheel across from your cruise control switch, below the high beam switch. 7th gear is a mode button switch on the shifter pad if it's the t10 transmission. Center switch panel is regen disable, traction control bypass, two sets of auxiliary light switches, trailer indicator switch, hazard, fog, more trailer lights, 5th wheel slide lock, pto, 5th wheel dismount, locking diff, 5th wheel lock, differential lock.
Congrats on your open canvas, the sky is the limit!
My company has a T880 where the engine brake is located on bar on your right hand side where the Johnny bar is usually located
That's a better place for it
I just went from a '15 ICON W900 glider with 286" WB to a '24 W900 with a 300" WB. Curved widshelid to a split. Sleepers are pretty much identical 84" Studios. I tell everyone the trucks are pretty much the same, but driving them is very different. I feel ya.
Nothing like an Eaton 18 speed that’s awesome love the paint job especially the tanks!!
Glad you like it James! 👋💯
😂 that’s funny I used to a DM 800 tandem dump 300 Mack engine instead of a Jacob’s engine brake it had the Mack Dynatard engine brake Mike that thing would move you about 3 inches forward especially unloaded
Mr gaffin I have a lot of love and respect and appreciation for you and all your amazing work and video’s you have more than come along way in a really good way on this amazing journey 😊😊😊😊
I appreciate that ❤️
WOW……fender turn signals are mounted correctly, clearance light facing out. Can’t wait to see the final product……
😋😋
😍😍😍 looking large and in charge!!! can't wait to see it finished.
T800 looks really good and clean. The added touches paint will make the truck pop out lot more. Get rid of the pockets behind the seat be nice then you have a nice leg room in their..
Man, the W9 looks sharp with a fresh coat of paint to look like to company design. Fuel tanks looks is very different but matches the look. What engine is under the hood?
All its missing is your metal fenders and trailer and maybe a flat top sleep 28-36in sleeper. Don't forget to get a light along the breather tanks.
Both have 565hp X15 Cummins
@@TheBostonTrucker Lot of power to do the job that is needed. Is the gear ratio the same as the Other W9 you have now?
The sound of the X15 Cummins is the same where I drive for the international automatic. As for the def system and muffle and clamps and flex pipe. Just keep an eye on it over time as it being used, and def system are not cheap if anything goes wrong...
Your smile says it all Mike... Have fun setting it up. It looks fantastic. I love your truck.
You have to put a 6” extension on that shifter, it will shift a lot smoother with a longer throw.
Congrats on the new truck....with the correct pedal set up!!!!😂
Looks very nice I would have painted the def tank red as well to continue the flow of the painted fuel tanks
nice Mike the new truck looks great
I love the split windshield of course that is to your advantage if you get a crack or chip
Good point
That new cab on both of those seems to be very quiet your a lucky Man Mike
Super quiet
Mike have them connect the dummy stack ! That’s what we did
Distance from the back of the cab to the 5th wheel favors a California stretch " awesome rig Mike 😊
Got it!
Dude, nice to see you driving the new one. Came out great. Can’t wait to see the finished product
NO offence intended but I prefer the down under Australian built Kenworth Conventional hood & Cabover also.
Your new truck looks nice & has all the bells & whistles you love it !
Good looking truck Mike. Can’t wait to see it finished. Take care.
Nice New ride! Looking forwards to the upcoming vids specking it out. Peace and Grease ✌️
Thank you
I'm sure Teddy will like his new rig. Wow red tanks they look awesome. No matter what you decide on pin stripes it's going to stand out.
Looks awesome, congrats! Love the black caps on the tanks.
Truck is wicked cool , good luck Mike, enjoy it ,you deserve it.
Thanks 👍
Great truck Mike! You'll do it Justice with WHATEVER you decide!
There ya go thank you
She will look awesome when you get her done. Congratulations Mike you earned it.👍👍👍
Man I can't wait to see it finished needs a headache rack with a light bar on top I like pin stripping is my favorite
I love the channel n the new truck ..take care of it n good luck ..I watched u for years ..I think u deserve a new ride
Thanks I appreciate you watching.
I can’t wait! I love how your new one looks, it’s so old school.
Thanks
hey it looks awesome, cant wait to see the finished product
Thanks
going to look great Mike, Your decision, but I like chrome front hub oil covers instead of strait chrome hub cabs... just my 3 cents worth... kid in a candy store 🤣🤣
Hey mate it’s yours to use as you need to so good luck stay safe and enjoy to you and yours go get 2024. 😎🇦🇺
The new truck is sweet. I do however feel like the white from the top of the hood should’ve come lower. You can’t even tell the top of the hood is white. I do get what the paint guy is saying about the line but it needs to come lower with the white in my opinion.
That’s a great looking flat glass w9 sir! Some glass watermelon lights would look awesome on this truck. 😎
I think so too!
Great video brother them old kenworts always sounded great especially the old w900
Yes it does!
Beautiful Mike...you deserve it!
Thank you kindly!
Very sharp nice looking truck!! I think its going to serve you well Mike!
Thank you. I'll be serving you well hopefully soon. 👍😉
The Black ends look great! I think will really look good with some pin strips. Trucks coming along great!
I went from driving a 2002 W9 to a new 389 Pete back in 2016. Biggest adjustment was the sound difference(or lack of sound!). I heard the W9 was being discontinued after 2025. Did not know the T800 was also coming to an end. Had you heard why they are discontinuing both models? Sad to see them go. Hope you enjoy your new truck! It's coming along nicely
With that length it would have looked really sweet with a baby bunk.
Looks awesome!!!
You're right!
@@TheBostonTrucker so awesome that they think highly enough of you to spec out the truck the way you want. Not many companies around like that anymore.
Keep up the great work.
Can’t wait to see it all done.
It's starting to look awesome
Mike!
I have to admit, i dig the look of no hubcaps more than id like to say. She just looks like a work truck. Great looking rig even as it is now.
Good luck with your new truck Mike I'm sure it will look awesome when you are done with it
Know it'll look good when you get done with it boston
Good luck with your new truck Mike👍👍
Looks great Mike !
That's a bad ass truck. Can't wait till it is done.
Truck looks great Mike! I think we’re all just as excited as you are to see it completed. My only advice would be to turn the stacks out just a little bit..not completely to the side but about halfway. Either way love the show and congratulations on the new rig!
Such a beautiful truck
Love it! They look great!
Thank you! Cheers!
Best of Luck with the new tractor!🇺🇸
The truck is a real beauty Mike. Congratulations! I'm looking forward to seeing it finished out. I would have liked the painter to have brought the white down to the lower end of the radius on the hood sides so we'd see a little more white but I'm keeping an open mind until I see it finished out.
Looks good already, only going to be better all done!
Agree thanks
Your new rig is awesome friend. I think it will be a show stopper. Try and keep it on the ground when you put that hammer down. God speed friend.
Hi Mike, beautiful truck. Personally I'm not a fan of the white buttons and painted tanks. I'm a bling guy, but that's just my opinion and you and the boss are the ones that matter. I wish you many years of happiness with it. I would love to meet you someday.
Love the black ends on the tanks. Not a fan of the buttons though. But people need to realize that, that is OKAY. Everyone doesn't always have to agree!!
That's right and I'm the one who's gonna live with it.
@@TheBostonTrucker yes sir! Congratulations on the rig. Can't wait to see your touches to it. Stay safe driver
I agree that piece on the inside of the passenger door has to go. I'm probably in the minority, but I use that when changing lanes on the highway. Both trucks are awesome.
Bonjour,your truck is Beautiful,👌💪🏻🙏🇺🇸🇫🇷
The Cardillo’s have to be awesome people. What they did for you and are letting you do is practically unheard of these days. They can hold their heads up high and be proud of what they do for their employees.
Can’t wait for Mats. First year going and get to meet the one and only TBT. Been watching you since the Boston bark days. Registered and got a room booked. It’s happening! 😂
Looking good!
Your truck looks great even though it's not done yet and have a great week Mike
Cool truck! Was totally on board with the painted ends on the tank. I think it's the perfect accent to the black fenders. I think the paint looks great except for one thing. Nothing to do with your calls or the company scheme, just not executed in one area as well as it should've been in my opinion even though it was explained. Can't wait for the next update!
