My chest tightened at the end as I thought he was heading for a roll over about 1.55 it sure settled those logs in though! Great looking truck he has there!
When I see trucking like this it makes me think of how GOD blessed and watched over me trucking for 50yrs an operating everything that moved an drove everything but parkin lot an bed buggin. I started driving a 777 uke gas tanker when I was 16. I was 16 when I got my chauffeurs in 1968. I ran all equipment then drove a coal bucket and trailer an ran the coal mines in 5 or 6 states, pulled flat bed, bulk tank, drop deck an heavy mine equipment wide and heavy. Then about 1978 or 79 ran west coast and northwest all COs reefers, dry box, wedge, bulk tankers an retired with Howard Lisk in Wadesboro NC. RAN muddy mountains pulled in an out of places like you are in also with stick wagon. The harrier it got the better I was by the Grace of GOD. One job I applied for I was told I was over experienced but I just tried to do the best job I could do. I met some great people in 50yrs in 48 states, my name was BLACKJACK. Trucks didn't have air bags or the ones way back didn't so arthritis and trailer whiplash has beat me to death. Keep on trucking boys make sure JESUS CHRIST is number one. 🙏He made me let him out a couple times because I was getting a little to rowdy but he was always waiting on me to pick him back up a little further down the road. 😇 Be safe an make sure THE POWER AND THE GLORY is in the buddy seat and it will be just fine.
1:53 he's definitely made that turn before, he knows to gun it before the trailer tips, I thought it was gonna tip myself
Billy Lindauer same
Yeah man I about shit myself just watching that
Nah... he had a lot of real estate he could have used on the right and could have avoided dragging it through the ditch and almost flipping it.
nashvilleoutlaw , Thank You
Yeah that gave me a shock
Always good to see what other guys are doing and what they're working with. Nice work on getting out them woods. You did what you had to do. Thanks for posting.
Very classy truck, thanks for the video! Trucking can be fun and a lot of work all rolled into 1! Best of luck to you!
I bet that gave him alil bit of a scare there at the end
Crapped his britches ..lol
That gave me a litle bit of a scare in a safe distance! :-)
@@V8AmericanMuscleCar I agree with that lol
@LmElite Elitist 1:57
I know the feeling.
Great to see an ol'classic blowin smoke and jammin gears!!
It scared the crap outta me when it looked like that trailer was gonna tip over
Me too, think he's made that turn before.
@@dwayneoxford9719 Yeah, I agree. He started to gun it before that trailer tipped over.
Me to
Cos your just a boboi truck driver
Just abt did....cut it soon
i like how he gets it through the ditch without loosin it. Bad Ass Pete
Also, by directing the exhaust upwards, it keeps the soot from building up on the trailer, and prevents smaller cars from getting blasted with exhaust (which could happen if the exhaust was directed downward or sideways).
no one cares

You got to love the sound of that mechanical caterpillar
3406 the CATS MEW CATERPILLAR RULES especially in the woods where tq is A must
its amazing how thse big old US trucks keep running for decades.
in UK its rare to see a truck over about 7 years old
Despite what Jeremy Clarkson would have folks in the U.K. believe we do many things well. One is diesel engines. Truckers put literally millions of miles on their rigs before they trade then in on another one.
Clarkson is an ignorant bigotted joke.
Wow i bet your fun to live with if your complaining about trucks on youtube, i dread to think what bullshit you talk about of a night, DAMN
william, try switching on a couple of your three braincells and re-read my comments and you just might understand that I am actually in awe of them.
You seem like the stereotypical dumb Yank who knows nothing but Flintstones.
Fleur Black I saw many trucks from he UK that were older than 6 or 7 years old. There is a page on Facebook dedicated to truck drivers and their rigs from all over the world, and they have featured a lot of trucks from there that were well over 7 years old and running strong. By he way, I'm a 'Yank'.
1:58 almost an "oh no" moment.
I whole heartedy agree. Low tech doesn't break and leave you stranded in the bush
sweet peterbilt i love my petes my dad had a 85 pete 359 with a 400 Cummins and i miss it we sold her in 2000 i want her back!!!!!!! I love my peterbilts!!!!!!
It's nearly impossible to roll a rail trailer like this one. The wood moves (as i'm sure you noticed) It will fall off long before it will roll.
Wow this old beast looks better than some newer trucks out on the road. I had a chance to buy one this same year and model, but I didn't. I thought it was a 2000's truck but nope. My company wants 07 and newer. But what a beautiful rig.
My all time fav truck, Pete 379 long nose with a flat top bunk and bologna cut stacks! Guys this wasn't the first time he went through the ditch, you can see the tracks from doing it a few times before.
That’s a 359….not a 379
@@cheeseball247 Yes, you are absolutely correct, I was just stating what my favorite truck was.
like heavy equipment. The operator is a very good skill. Very good sound. Thank you from Japan.
I almost thought that load was going over there at the end, love the video!
love randomly stumbling onto fellow Manitoban videos haha your brothers got himself one gorgeous rig
" rollin' coal ' !!...... * I live in logging country of upState NY and never have seen a load of logs loaded that way .... thumbs up !!
We're not gonna save the world with these beasts, but damn it's such a good show...
Love it when he starts moving, all that black smoke! Nice vid driver, and sweet Pete!
I like the sound from the air bag dump valve lol we used to have a pete that did the same sound and I've been wanting another one like lol
I like heavy equipment. The operator is a very good skill. Very good engine sound. Thank you from Japan.
Всё-таки, что не говори, а Американская классика это нечто, красота, звук мотора, это очень круто👍👍👍
That was awesome I was really thinking that trailer at the end would have those logs come off.
Damn straight there ain't no particulate filter in that exhaust!
Even without DPF it has better emissions than a Volkswagen....
You are saying 'no particulate filters' as if that's something good. Hope you have got a bit more sense in the last 8 years since you made that moronic comment unlikely though, because if you were intelligent you would not have been driving a truck for a living so that's to be expected . . .
@@TRPGpilot yeah you don't know what you are talking about. From someone who is also a pilot here in the us. I can tell you that truckers can make 200k+ a year in the us if they play their cards right. Pilots in the USA are paid better than almost every country in the world. In fact new airline pilots are paid about the same or even less than new truck drivers.My father who owns a trucking company has drivers with bachelor degrees. Some people just enjoy it. In the us, it is law that commercial pilot must be of good moral character. Based on how rude, angry and immature your comments are you don't seem like you should be in a cockpit or even behind the wheel of a semi truck. You are a grown adult bullying a teenager who appears to be substantially smarter than you. I can only assume that you are not happy with your financial status so resort to bullying people. You should really consider being nice and more mature in the future. You will live longer and feel better. Have a good day.
@@TRPGpilot ta gueule t'y connais rien bouffon
@@TRPGpilot Son, be quiet....
WOW!!! OLD PETERBILT TRUCKS ARE THE BEST!!!
Beautifull Truck...
@Teejoker1 You got my vote man.
LOVE the old stuff. It was made to work.
New stuff, is a pathetic and ridiculous loss of quality, and practicality.
Good to see some still rockin' this old equipment!~
lol nice turn at the ending xD
I love he rolls the coal in the beginning!! Good job driver at the end!!
Just beautiful!!
Perfect! Well Done!
@JRtransport379 I have had the efficiency discussion many times here and for some reason people dont understand it but a 25 year old truck is MORE efficient than a new peice of junk that wont last.
There’s a reason the truck is 25 years old and the other one is new. One didn’t last the other did think that says more than enough about efficiency I’ll take an ol beast with no computer that guzzles fuel like there’s a hole in the tank Over some electrical nonsense that I can’t touch without voiding every warranty under the sun.
@@johno4584 i’d say that’s more so survivors bias. you don’t see all the trucks that have ‘died’ in the last 25 years, only the ones that remain. new trucks are generally built better since newer tech comes out and we learn how to improve on aspects that may have had a lower quality in the past
@@johno4584 You're really not the brightest, please re read your first sentence. "There's a reason the truck is 25 years old and the other one is new", it can't exactly be 25 years old if it's new? I'm losing brain cells with almost every comment on here fuck me.
Wonderful truck! A tricky turn there at the end, nice to see it went well :).
Hard truck sounds.. Takes me back to my childhood
@WilsonHines nice choice, computers dont belong in a 359. best part of driving a truck with a smokey old motor: passing a prius and then foggin' him out...........gotta get a vid of that some time.
You aren't very smart, are you?
Should have gotten a little wider on that turn there.
DIRT LIFE agreed. If he swung a little wider he wouldn’t have almost tipped that trailer over.
Beautiful truck, always nice to see a proper truck in the grit working. You only ever see these shined up on the highway. A little dirty is a good look for this baby
Awesome video man this is great stuff right here
I agree if you not at home your at work !, first real. Truck I ever drove was a 78 classic , bull rack. Trucking has gone to hell the thing I drive now has camera in my face , computer controlled everything.
A point of view: High tech/High maintenance or Low tech Reliability, a dash that tells you nothing or a dash that tells you everything (and does it efficiently)
my first truck was a 87 t600 with a b model and 6" straights...loved my old CAT!!...nice video
Those old 359's were just put together RIGHT...I ran an '84 non-extended hood for a guy pulling a lowboy/flatbed/landoll, it had 1.8 million on the clock...and that damn thing pulled/rode better than the '06 379 I run now with 870K on the clock. Some things have improved over the years, yes...but there's a lot that's went downhill. Good to see that old hoss still earning its keep.
I'd like to know your reasoning behind that comment....
Low tech is all you can rely on. If its not on the truck, it cannot break (wires, computers, DEF system DPF system etc)
NASA even has low tech implace for all of its back up systems. Take a look at the engin used for getting back off of the moon. It used hypergolic fuels for that exact reason-they are low-tech, all that is needed is to turn a valve that separates them and boom, you can get back home.
Lookin forward to the replys here
And now they're talking about cars with all-electric - Non mechanical steering systems, soon as a motor goes or a wire shorts or the battery dies - No more steering. I hope the brakes aren't electric too.
@@Senkino5o don't know how that would even be allowed on public roads. They've had steer by wire for years but it's not legal on public roads with no physical steering connection...for that very reason.
1:57 Load shifted to driver's side from running the ditch.
I thought the way that load was restrained was pretty.... uhh.... interesting haha
But I suppose in the US you have much smoother roads than I have in Australia. So you don’t have to worry so much. Just my theory. Or maybe this driver just did it wrong or something

Awesome 👌
What an awesome good looking truck.
if it ain't broke don't fix it!
show me an '87 volvo that still hauls from even this pansy terrain.
here in greece we still got old volvos that haul ass. Still working perfectly
@@dieselgeezer18 Shhh, the good ole' boys might get scared of that commie eurotruck tech
@@perry1134 commie? 😈
plenty of old volvo trucks doing work in EU, this isnt china, we build shit to last.
@@johan.ohgren sarcasm intended, of course. I live in the deep south, and there are a lot of people around here who think anything European is automatically socialist-communist and sinful.
That was pretty close . Give er the goose, and out you go. smoke is good.
Those model of pete's are the best looking truck ever
thats why i always say loggers are the real truckers, they arent soy boys concerned about MPG and aerodynamics and fuel efficiency - they want a truck that gets shit done properly and that you can play rough with and it won't blow out the gearbox or throw a rod. older trucks have a hell of a lot more tolerance in their parts because they were made to work and work dependably.
Thanks bud, I appreciate it! I think this might be my favourite comment on RUclips ;)
God bless u guys
Nice truck
Love the sound of an old B model cat nothing like it
My favorite part of the video is the no commercials part. Thanks.
Won't catch me hauling logs with a trailer like that.
HAHA LOL!!! I was waiting for a wise crackin aussie to show me up ;) Yeah, I'd love to see or drive one of your awesome trains out there, but I'll have to settle for what we got here
You guys really know how to get it done!
Good ol Pete
wow, nice camera. crystal clear video, such a refreshing thing to see. oh yeah, and the pete is nice too.
my home province of Manitoba
that is some awesome cloud action
its the terrain that is making the cloud action possible.
any new vids coming soon?
@MammoetFan how is it bad for the environment? it burns LESS fuel than a plastic euro truck would in this scenario, it scores better on those stupid emmisions tests, breaks less (meaning fewer unncessesary miles as well as fewer parts are needed to be manufatured), is durable enough to not require replacement every four years meaning another truck doesnot have to be built to replace it.
I could go on with more examples of how this truck is better, but I dont care. Go drive your fugly volvo.
Nothing like a Pete!
GOOD ONE! I love it. It must took alot of practice and guts doing that left turn!!! I'm still LOLing 34x over that one nice job!
Beat that "tesla semi"
the tesla semi looks like an ugly fridge
It look more like a nose to me
Awesome, i'd love to see it! But does it work on the highway, or in the bush? Either way, I am glad to hear that there are some other good old rigs out there.
But a new Volvo does not stand up out here
Again, I would love to see that '86 hauling big loads.
lol when the trailer started to roll over I was like pushing it back by my own will! :D awesome vid, bro!
very cool and interesting ! thx for the reply ... I enjoy watching videos from your area . i like the cab over design of the MANN And Scania they would be very useful when i have been to New York city and Boston and such places .
I used to be a yard jockey when I was younger so I have a little tiny bit of experience, but not as much as most probably watching this video. My question is, how much torsion can a trailer or 5th wheel take before something happens? I never had to deal with this as I always had a smooth paved road to drive on. Specifically asking because of 1:57.
Well. Trailers and trucks stay together after gigantic wrecks so...
AntiqueFarmImplement Well boy, if you think theres no torsion when you hit a freaking tree, and then slide 100 feet down into a ravine, then you should be the one in the truck when it falls
chill your titties, they obviously are interested in the specific numbers.
AntiqueFarmImplement Enough to the point the gooseneck breaks on them log trailers
wtf is happening with the truck in the beginning? was that when the starter was running? o.O
lifting it outta a soft spot
"
Breaking it loose. All the weight the truck, it sank in the dirt. Mushers do the same with dog sleds.
don't want to twist a driveshaft or break an axle
Canon Powershot SX20IS, Great camera. I actually bought it as a still camera for a trip to Kennedy space centre in 2009, but 30k pictures, videos and one vehicle roll over later it still works great!
Damn I was holding on for dear life.im sure he's used to that spot and I'm sure that all of those trucks leaving that spot probably used to that dip.great sounding peterbilt
Load 24 tons??
28-ish if I remember right
yep..plenty of weight on the drive's
Ru Stonesiefer still lighter than what they put on Scania, and EU Volvo
@@user-po6hn9id1t my dad haul over 60 tons everyday
Vcs americanos acham que isso e carga, aqui no Brasil nossos caminhão de 41 toneladas, KKK as carretas de vcs tem 25 Ton, as nossas carretas tem 133 ton
@celticbobb p.p.s. this rig is one of the lightest and most efficient of its kind, so stuff it and go back to worshiping Obama.
p.p.p.s it does better on emissions testing than my tier two emissions truck while burning less fuel.
trucks a beast and amazing looking
i love the sound of big rigs =)
Sad to know that the soy boy generation of today would scrap history like that and still drink their Starbucks coffee that was delivered by trucks like that 🤦🏻♂️.
Btw, I'm only 39yrs old and appreciate a mechanical engine without all that EGR crap!
I’m 20 and there are plenty of non-soy consuming boys like me that still appreciate the older trucks and cars👍🏿
20 years old as well everyone i know appreciates older machines, just where u born and raised i guess. southern ontario farm country
thats a nice big strong peter!
Such an ideal vehicle for working in the woods... ;)
You're great man, I love how you dealt with this fool.
Good old 425 B Cat. I'll watch for this truck on the road this winter!
Thanks! Just read through the older comments, I have had many of these kind of arguments and discussions.
Awesome Pete.
Nothing like the look of a Pete😎👍
what a beauty
i would drive that pete every day if i could it may be old but goddamn that is one well built and solid truck
At the end I thought that the trailer was gonna tip over on that left turn. Suppose if the guy swung out a little wider he could’ve missed that mud hole there? At least he didn’t lose that log load at the end though.
Very nice truck !!
i get the feeling the old girl is turned up a little, or the injection pumps bin tampered with! love it eathor way dude! personalty i dont liek rolling a ton of coal but hey its his truck so let it roll! love my duramax
NIce looking truck. Definitely can tell that you are back east even if you hadn't posted Vassar MB. Here in the west of the US we load the logs on long ways and don't cut them down.
3406 Cat? Hearing the Waylon Jennings song “Rough & Rowdy Days” while watching this video would be a good combination! Damn those old 359’s never loose their cool! Good Day Everyone!
i was reading your other comment , you pull 80,000kgs with your rig ? damn! well, you guys in Australia and the "wood ticks" in Canada have me beat . only 120,000 lbs for me moving concrete crushing equipment . and i do not even like that a lot . my hats off to both you and the guys in this video !
Good. Plants need CO² for photosynthesis. Best supply it right where they grow.
Me: ah the gentle rumble of the engine
The engine: POWAAAAAAA
Gotta love the gear whine of the 3406.
Nice Jake shift there BTW when you got movin then ya just about lost the load pullin out on the road.
That's a high quality camera I thought it was a cartoon when the video first started
