I want to thank you for doing this video. I retired from driving 20 years ago and the view from your camera put me back in the driver's seat again. You made my day!
Kevin Chladek Your very welcome Sir, I might post another sometime, heading up towards Boston so I might get some decent footage thru up state Ny, might put something together next week
You made my day with your comment Kevin sir., My father worked for coalmines and used to operate Komatsu dumptrucks.. I wish I can show him a video of dumptruck. He is now retired from his services and enjoying his second half of life.
I like the camera position because I can see the tach and speedo and other gauges, also the best part, that long Peterbilt hood! Also, no radio is good, I like the sound of the engine and shifting.
Steve Miller I totally agree with you. This is a more dynamic angle of everything. It’s interesting too to feel the driver’s head movements for looking to his left and right.
I love videos of trucks like this one rolling down the highway with the radio playing. What an amazing view at the end! I may only be 17 years old, and I never got a ride in a truck before, but I long for the moments similar to what this video displays.
John Bach I'm 17 as well, but I've been in and around trucks all my life, and let me tell you, if it's in your blood, any experience inside of a truck is unforgettable.
Thanks for not playing the radio/music. I loved the sound of the engine purring/revving and gears shifting. Always drive safe and remember, we appreciate what you guys do!
What a beautiful, wonderful, truck!!! Love everything about it. The stripe you added made a HUGE upgrade in the looks. I like the head mounted camera (could be even tilted down a bit more) so we can see what you see; the mirrors, gauges, maybe even some of the shifting, and over the hood view. Like hearing about what you are discovering about the truck like how to shift, how it pulls, and look forward to hearing about the mpg. Looks like you run about 69 mph @ about 1400 rpm. Every single one of us would LOVE to trade places with you, I'm pretty sure. Enjoy the ride; the rest of us will, too!
Frank Swain thank you for the kind words, I had my seat on the floor and the head strap as low as it would go, I could change the view of the camera to wide angle and it would get more of the dash, might have to play around with it a little, this is a learning curve and new territory.
Hello from Russia! This is the best video about the work of the truck driver from all that I saw. As if driving, I drove along the roads! Many thanks for the wonderful video watched with friends very much. Clean to you roads, good weather and good payment. Added to subscriptions :)
I'm a driver but unfortunately only a personal car :) I really like American tracks and I watch a lot about the work of drivers in America and their tracks. I really like that you have a whole culture or way of life. It's great. We have cargo transportation in Russia ... but I do not like European trucks myself. Yes, and the system of tractor stops like you do not. Our country is huge, you need a lot of money in infrastructure development.
I agree, this is a nice camera view. Really enjoy the width of the shot as well as the seat movement in correlation to the rest of the truck. Great video and stay safe!!!
Life is Good! Enjoy the ride and that awesome new machine. I do like the head cam. I might suggest tipping it down maybe 10 degrees to see a little more of your dash. Amazing how quiet smooth and powerful is your Peterbilt. I like your choice of music too. Amazing scenery, low traffic, good weather, wow... gotta be living the truck driver dream.
I drive a KW always wondered what it would look like looking out of a windshield at a long Hood Peterbilt. you're a good driver with great skills thank you for letting us ride along with you. Keep up the videos
That's a beautiful truck. I'm working on getting my CDL now and I hope to become an O/O someday and a long nose Peterbilt is my dream truck. Stay safe out there brother
We have a haulage company in the uk and I now see the pros and cons of the way we do it, videos like this inspire me to keep pushing on so maybe one day I can expand to be in the USA. Great video bruv keep it up 👊🏻
I've driven through that part of Oregon in an International cab over but never in a Pete. I'll bet that you're in a smooth ride. I've always wanted one. I test drove one around the block once. Peterbilt really makes a good truck
Drove 84 many a time, headed east from Portland past Multinoma falls, headed across the wheatfields of Oregon and Washington towards Spokane and beyond. Bitch in the winter, rutted ice and all the rest that make trucking as challenging as it is satisfying.l
gday mate im an aussie restarting my life i go for my heavy vehicle licence in a couple of days your videos are really helpful so i hope the truckin lifes for me anyway all the best ill keep watching
Like the camera position much better like most people are saying. Nice rig you got. My step brother drivers for a living up here in Canada. I'm wanting to get into it as well, would love it.
Good job.....I think a second camera and you might have an academy award in the future... great drivers vantage point plus smart phone for quick look when the unusual rolls by. See ya down the road.... look'n forward to them summer seat covers...
very beautiful truck!! I love watching videos like this even though I do the same thing lol. something about this stuff gets in your blood ? lol. I haul a gasoline tanker and I run the northwest mainly but only i have a kenworth 900 l now. I have the cummings isx 550hp and absolutely love the engine. we run 105,000 and I'm getting around 5.8 mpg with it. My previous truck was a Pete 379 with a 550 cat, which is still running in the fleet with over a million miles on it, still a great truck, but I have to say peterbilt steve specs some of the most beautiful Pete's I've seen including yours!! Beautiful truck buddy!!! love it, and keep up the good work and drive safe!! will keep watching!!!
Joseph Wilber thank you, W 9 icon 900 was my first choice but the dealer wouldn't take my call and Peterbilt Steve's customer service is what convinced me into the Pete plus the level of specs on it, thank you for watching and safe travels to you as well.
Thx for the video , I love the head strap view , it really gives you the drivers point of view and really gives us the chance of "being in the drivers seat " keep her shiny my new friend, keep the videos coming and be safe my new friend
Such a comfy video, wonderful truck. From time to time I get interested in being a truck driver, but in my country that's a much worse profession due to poverty.
Ah... cabbage pass... brings back memories. I miss being behind he wheel, shifting through the gears, and seeing this amazing country. I'd still be doing it today if it weren't for ongoing medical issues from the Army. I grew up around trucks. That's all my dad and uncles have done. Once it's in your blood, that's it. All I've ever known are trucks and the military. Even though I'm no longer able to do either, I'll forever be a soldier and a truck driver. No regrets. To all those still running the roads and slamming gears... keep it between the ditches and out of your britches!
great view actually feel like im driving the truck i hope to be in cdl school soon thru maverick transportation, btw i just subscribed to your channel today and also great views there in Oregon always wanted to go there
Thanks, nope i m going Temp Controlled division, just waiting on some medical paperwork to be sent to company to see if DOT DR. will accept a letter about my meds
That would be neat if you could do a two way mirror mount you'd definitely get some great shots. I'm coming your way at the end of next month, wife wants to go to Gatlinburg I always go down 55 and take 4 over to 64 and go the Paducah way. Other's have said to go to Indy and take 69 South to 24
Hey sir. Nice truck the peterbilt 389 is me favorite truck over all in second the379. For you which is the better engine , cummins x15, n14 selectplus, cat 3406, c15 or detroit engine?
Yo LIG .. first time viewer, I never got past the first seconds the head cam shot just does not gel with me I get seasick, I'll check back another time hopefully you will have a stable mount by then :)
Hi! First I'd like to say, what a magnificent truck you have there! if you don't mind my asking, what was the price tag on something like that?? Hoping to eventually get me a 389 when I can afford it... cheers and safe travels! 😎
Scuse me if this is a stupid question, but can you change the color of the instrument gauges on big rigs?? I like blue lights. That yellow/amber would drive me nuts. Not a driver here........
falcondriver100 yes they have a multitude of colors available and you can even change them out to a digital, customized options are endless on one of these trucks
What size is that visor? Seems perfect. Not too big, not too small. Also, Do the Jakes work as good as PeterbiltSteve said they do. BEAutiful truck Sir.
Sam O I believe it's a 12 inch visor and yes the Jake works really well, you could stop the truck just by downshifting if you had the real estate and felt like burning the fuel
Mr. Pink that is correct but we currently have a malfunctioning happening, it will not engage into high side of the low gears from a neutral position, once I start off in low then switch to high we are good from then on after that you just have to remember to flip both levers before shifting into 6th or what they call 5th
SouthernPyro still learning on this one, Cummings rpms drop fast and transmission is new and tight, but 18 years of shifting helps figure it out, I thought it was a little rough in the video but glad you thought it was smooth

This American truck simulator mod looks gorgeous
Haha, I swear the map looked like the American Truck Simulator map on the gps too lmao
they finally added hands too
So who’s gonna tell him?
@@aidan_sterlingg your MoM[[[n!!!!!!!!
I like that view, being able to see the dash and mirrors. You have an AWESOME truck! definitely a dream truck!
Brent Sheen thank you, clip #2 will be the best one, hopefully have it up tonight or tomorrow
I want to thank you for doing this video. I retired from driving 20 years ago and the view from your camera put me back in the driver's seat again. You made my day!

Same for me , retired 6 months back and I miss it.I live in the Philippines now so this video helps my urge to be back driving.
I like the camera position because I can see the tach and speedo and other gauges, also the best part, that long Peterbilt hood! Also, no radio is good, I like the sound of the engine and shifting.

Joseph Tolley it's definitely a passion. It's the connection between man and machine.
She is purring like a kitten!!!! I love the sound of Peterbilts. I drove a 379 myself. She was a 9 speed.
Thanks for not playing the radio/music. I loved the sound of the engine purring/revving and gears shifting. Always drive safe and remember, we appreciate what you guys do!
6YJI9 Thank you and thank you for watching and enjoying one of my first videos to produce 👍
love the view of the dash make me feel like am riding along with u
i agree
I agree also
leave the camera where is it I like the view of the dash

Tennessee Bow-hunter I have to agree sir, good view.

I actually like the head cam. It puts us in your perspective. I love the view from your office, amazing rig you have
I'm a 0/0 and I can't wait for the day I purchase a 389 That's one bad ass truck you got there sir
Pillah hopefully one day you will get to meet Peterbilt Steve

Петр Казанова Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed my video all the way from Russia 🇷🇺, modern technology is great, are you a driver?
I'm a driver but unfortunately only a personal car :) I really like American tracks and I watch a lot about the work of drivers in America and their tracks.

Tried OTR for 6 months. Loved the driving, hated the truck-stop life. you guys keep America running.
Nice Truck! And I-84 West through the Columbia River Gorges is such a nice trip!!
I agree, this is a nice camera view. Really enjoy the width of the shot as well as the seat movement in correlation to the rest of the truck. Great video and stay safe!!!

I like head cam pov better than dash pov just my personal opinion.
That's a beautiful truck. I'm working on getting my CDL now and I hope to become an O/O someday and a long nose Peterbilt is my dream truck. Stay safe out there brother
We have a haulage company in the uk and I now see the pros and cons of the way we do it, videos like this inspire me to keep pushing on so maybe one day I can expand to be in the USA. Great video bruv keep it up 👊🏻
The camera position is good I like to see the inside view out especially the gauges, excellent video
I've driven through that part of Oregon in an International cab over but never in a Pete. I'll bet that you're in a smooth ride. I've always wanted one. I test drove one around the block once. Peterbilt really makes a good truck
Kevin Buford it seems to be a well built machine, I’m enjoying it, thanks for watching.
Hey bud. Nice work. Gives us a sense of what you guys go through. Stay safe. Regards from Australia.
Beautiful view my friend, stay safe out there ☺️
that engine sounds so relaxed, beautiful truck man!
The only music needed is the sound of that truck! Great video!
Awesome point of view camera position!
Sounds great!
Torsee clip # 2 is ready to upload, should be up later today, thanks for watching
Love the head cam, makes me feel like I'm behind the wheel of that bad boy
Drove 84 many a time, headed east from Portland past Multinoma falls, headed across the wheatfields of Oregon and Washington towards Spokane and beyond. Bitch in the winter, rutted ice and all the rest that make trucking as challenging as it is satisfying.l
gday mate im an aussie restarting my life i go for my heavy vehicle licence in a couple of days your videos are really helpful so i hope the truckin lifes for me anyway all the best ill keep watching
how did you go mate?
Like the camera position much better like most people are saying. Nice rig you got. My step brother drivers for a living up here in Canada. I'm wanting to get into it as well, would love it.
Man I love that engine sound and that turbo 🚛
I like that view! Great sense of the things you gotta keep track of!
That beast sounds great. Didnt take long for you to figure out that gear box either. Good job!!!
Good job.....I think a second camera and you might have an academy award in the future...
great drivers vantage point plus smart phone for quick look when the unusual rolls by. See ya down the road.... look'n forward to them summer seat covers...
Recycling Concepts why thank you and hopefully the seat covers will be out soon
Man that's a gorgeous view of the Cabbage Patch view of Oregon! And you drives a nic Peterbilt 389 too.
Men look this place. I love USA. Planing to move there soon . I'm just here enjoying ur vids. Great Channel! Keep it up buddy.
Eduardo Correia stay where you are we are over crowed as it is
You new truck is awesome. Would love to have a 389
this is awesome! I live in Vancouver WA, 5 mins away from Portland and I've driven that route a bunch when I go camping
You have a beautiful Pete. I am new to your channel and I enjoyed that breath taking view. 👍👍👍👍👍
I agree also with the head cam, makes for a better experience . beautiful truck by the way .
Juan Martinez Thank you
Thank you. Like the head cam view feels more normal the checking of the mirrors. Hope you will do more I miss the open road.
It's so hard to choose between a KW W900 Studio Sleeper or a Peterbilt like this! If only Peterbilt could have a Studio Sleeper haha
Wildjesta ᄋོུཉᄌᄋོུཉ then nobody would buy the W9 lol
Beautiful views well done trucker.
Steven Hughes Thank you Mr Hughes
Very nice ride and beautiful views! Thanks!
solosautos1 Thank you and I’m glad you enjoyed it
very beautiful truck!! I love watching videos like this even though I do the same thing lol. something about this stuff gets in your blood ? lol.

105K huh, how do you pull that off. You must have some friends in the scale house to let you go by 25 thousand pounds over gross.
Brings great memories when i drove..... look at that hood, always loved the hood on a beautiful Pete.....
Why is the road different colors?
passed you the other day! you were going north on 81 through Wytheville va. good looking ride sir
Johnnie outlaw trucker did you wave? And thank you
yes sir lol. tried hollering at you on the CB but everyone was CB Rambo that day 10-4
Wow love the sound of the motor!!! :)
Man that truck is a beast. whats that note with tape on it on your driver window say?
nevermind. the sun shined on it. IFTA lol
Mark I've moved it since then, had to wait till I found what I wanted
Even tho he’s not saying much & just letting that engine talk is so peaceful nice truck I wanna get one!!
Great drive and ride along video...nice PETE...4Sure. Did you buy your PETE from Peterbilt Steve ?
He sure did!
I love how they making these new truck to look 90s old school, but still new tech :)
That diesel is the best music of all.
Thx for the video , I love the head strap view , it really gives you the drivers point of view and really gives us the chance of "being in the drivers seat " keep her shiny my new friend, keep the videos coming and be safe my new friend
God bless you and keep you every mile you walk....
Such a comfy video, wonderful truck. From time to time I get interested in being a truck driver, but in my country that's a much worse profession due to poverty.
You weren't my chance hauling furniture from GA on this trip were you?
I really like the way that X15 sounds, i bet it's much better in person too
Charles Pyatt no wasn’t any furniture in my wagon
Ah... cabbage pass... brings back memories. I miss being behind he wheel, shifting through the gears, and seeing this amazing country. I'd still be doing it today if it weren't for ongoing medical issues from the Army. I grew up around trucks. That's all my dad and uncles have done. Once it's in your blood, that's it.

That is a lovely sounding truck sir! Guessing she has the Paccar MX-13 engine? Subbed because that 389 is lovely!
Very nice truck, i need to have a truck Steve, it will be this year.
ANDREASRIAL can't go wrong with a Peterbilt Steve truck, hope everything works out for you
Do you remember where you were parked at the beginning of the video? I'm heading that way now lol.
im not even a peterbilt but i love yiur videos and the sound of that engine
great view actually feel like im driving the truck i hope to be in cdl school soon thru maverick transportation, btw i just subscribed to your channel today and also great views there in Oregon always wanted to go there
Robert Hodgins good deal and congratulations, will you be doing flatbed? The first 6 months is a bit tough but it will get easier
Thanks, nope i m going Temp Controlled division, just waiting on some medical paperwork to be sent to company to see if DOT DR. will accept a letter about my meds
I know nothing about trucking but this was cool to watch.
That would be neat if you could do a two way mirror mount you'd definitely get some great shots. I'm coming your way at the end of next month, wife wants to go to Gatlinburg I always go down 55 and take 4 over to 64 and go the Paducah way. Other's have said to go to Indy and take 69 South to 24
Hey sir. Nice truck the peterbilt 389 is me favorite truck over all in second the379. For you which is the better engine , cummins x15, n14 selectplus, cat 3406, c15 or detroit engine?
It didn't come with tripak right ?? Does the cost go up with a digital thermostat for the apu ??
Christopher Stewart no the Tripac is something I added and I'm don't know about the digital thermostat
This truck sounds so healthy and goood!
Yo LIG .. first time viewer, I never got past the first seconds the head cam shot just does not gel with me I get seasick, I'll check back another time hopefully you will have a stable mount by then :)
Hi!
First I'd like to say, what a magnificent truck you have there! if you don't mind my asking, what was the price tag on something like that?? Hoping to eventually get me a 389 when I can afford it... cheers and safe travels! 😎
Is it automatic?
Scuse me if this is a stupid question, but can you change the color of the instrument gauges on big rigs?? I like blue lights. That yellow/amber would drive me nuts. Not a driver here........
falcondriver100 yes they have a multitude of colors available and you can even change them out to a digital, customized options are endless on one of these trucks
What engine do you have under the hood of this truck?
What size is that visor? Seems perfect. Not too big, not too small. Also, Do the Jakes work as good as PeterbiltSteve said they do. BEAutiful truck Sir.
Sam O I believe it's a 12 inch visor and yes the Jake works really well, you could stop the truck just by downshifting if you had the real estate and felt like burning the fuel
I'm watching your polish video right now. My GAWD what a beauty you have!!!!
Sam O thank you
Isn’t the visceral momentum of these huge trucks just amazing?
have you had any problem with the def and after treatment my friends have had a lot of problems and wanted to ask u thanks
What camera do you have? I need to buy one just like yours
how much did was the gross weight in the video?
Do you have a stock exhaust? That truck sounds so nice.
Peterbilt 579 Peterbilt 579 yep factory bone stock X-15 Cummins set at 565 hp and 2050 torque
Do you have 20/20 distance vision?
Rooker11111 yes I do, why do you ask such a question?
What's the blue box on your dash for?
Never driven an 18spd before but if I'm right you don't need the low side unless your really heavy right or wrong?
Mr. Pink that is correct but we currently have a malfunctioning happening, it will not engage into high side of the low gears from a neutral position, once I start off in low then switch to high we are good from then on after that you just have to remember to flip both levers before shifting into 6th or what they call 5th
Well done man, great video
Is this truck a automatic or manual transmission?
Man, I love Peterbilt's... I hope to get a 579 one day!
That One Ford Guy a 579 isn't a real Peterbilt
the exhaust sounds loud? or is that the motor.
Have my dream truck sir god bless ya n do us good
really loving the camera view
Do you have satellite radio or just terrestrial?
that truck is very cool inside the cab
That's one sweet truck. 🍻
Getting ready to pull the trigger on a 389. I'm considering a glider with a pre emissions CAT C15, 13 speed. What's your thoughts?
Love that big engine purr! about as good as the radio!, BTW you run the 18 like a 13 speed?
How do you take off from a complete stop smoothly without the truck jerking?
SouthernPyro still learning on this one, Cummings rpms drop fast and transmission is new and tight, but 18 years of shifting helps figure it out, I thought it was a little rough in the video but glad you thought it was smooth
what kind of fuel mileage do you get with that new motor
Cummins X15?
Que preciosos paisajes, un saludo y un abrazo fuerte.. bendiciones
Great video!
Also, why a cummins, price maybe.... ?
