Shame isn’t it

😊 great video..

No sir. Only one truck in that yard had A/C when I worked there. They have a few brand new trucks from what I understand now i assume they all have A/C now

@@AQLandscaping thanks man! I was just about to apply to a front loader mixer job down in Alabama, I assumed the trucks had A/C but now I'm not going to! Screw that! thanks again

That truck did not have bad synchros, trans was sound except reverse. It had a broken pedal box. And rev match for downshifting does serve a purpose.. but thanks for the tip on a 4 year old video with a truck that no longer exists hoss

@@AQLandscaping so this tells me that you don’t understand what “rev match” actually does. If you’re downshifting and you rev the engine with the clutch pedal pushed in then you’re not matching anything, you’re only revving the engine, this is why you DOUBLE CLUTCH when rev matching, revving the engine with the clutch pedal out helps allow you to MATCH the transmission with your road speed. If you ever get the chance to shift a non synchronized trans like an Eaton fuller in a heavy duty truck then it will help you understand the concept better, hoss… now I can’t read your mind and know your clutch pedal is fukkd up, all I hear is the trans grind just like it would if the synchros were bad, hoss, just like I can’t automatically know “nor do I give a shit” that the truck has since been sold, hoss. The tip can go for any truck, not just the one you had so take it and put it back in your brain for a rainy day, hoss, at least you won’t look like a jackass next time revving the engine all over the place for no reason… Hoss

@@warrenmcelroy4718 I drove 8LL and 18 speed for a living for many years. Only used the clutch to take off from a dead stop, so yes I do know how to rev match, but thanks again

@@AQLandscaping then why is it that you’re revving the engine without letting the clutch out when the trans is in neutral? I’m just curious

@@AQLandscaping ?

welcome back loser

I drove new Oshkosh and I’m on a new Terex and the terex is way nicer

Yeah i hate to be the one to tell you but if you want a real cement truck you get a terex, on an oshkosh the chute movements are too slow and jerky, the turning radius sucks, the brakes are too stiff and have less braking power, the fins are harder to clean, the cat walk is annoying when you are trying to clean the fins, hopper, and other parts up there is annoying as well. The only thing i can say is the oshkosh cloth seat and seat mechanism is better but thats about it.

@@keurylara5948 Cool, you know this is a 2 yr old comment right? I don't even drive a front anymore. lol But I have heard differently and most companies around me run Oshkosh or Terex. It seems to come down to preference what I can tell honestly.

Nope never rode the clutch when I owned this truck. I made one turn on a public road in this video, and sure that ONE TURN that was made I didn’t use the turn signal. Boohoo. Glad we have you strong keyboard warriors 💪🏼

This truck was geared with 3.55s

I only know Oshkosh because thats all i drove in my time of driving mixers, but all Oshkosh had outside controls to move the chutes up down left right and fold, and only some of them came with outside controls to charge, discharge, and rev the engine. Mine did have that, only ever used it i think twice in my whole career.

My 97 is a crew cab dually auto and once it hits 3rd gear and TC lockup she’s a rocket, even without heavy throttle. But mine also has 90k miles and zero blowby.

@@MichaelFletcher-to7mm okay so update on my comment. the trucks got low compression and at the time had shot injectors. efuel and injectors solves that problem but still doesn’t fix the fact it’s got bad cylinder contribution

Not for ready mix trucks. I was watching this cause I've only ran rear discharge mixers

Thats what the mode button is for... full auto or you can select your gear

Robert Baker yeah I left this job after exactly a year of being there. Drove triaxle for a number of months and now I’m in my true career

@@AQLandscaping what's the true career

INTARGET 13 no, Century out of Canaan CT. It’s the non-union side of Bonded. All owned by the same company technically

Alex Q yeah I’m local to the pv area and have seen many of the orange and blue bonded trucks

It certainly is better, alot of fun.

I have yet to see a cone bend lol

Anything as long as you have the right adapters

GarbageSean I don’t drive mixer anymore I drive dump truck now. But they have ISM Cummins as a motor and 6 speed Allison Automatic Transmissions. You can’t drive period end of story either the drum stopped. It will kill the rollers

Alex Q can you do a long driving video on the dump truck? I want to see and hear it out on the road. Please let me know ASAP.

Probably a granny low...best kind imho

They call it low for a reason

hate to break it to ya but u dont need a clutch to shift, some people dont even use them
