It’s great to see a big player really making the effort to stay connected to their roots. I’ve always loved that a Kenworth is a trucks truck. Not an airplane, a sedan or ya lounge room masquerading as a truck 💪
Makes me so happy that its all Australian made! I miss the days where intersections were full of aussie built cars! Doesnt even feel that long ago. And we were so good at it.
Great video Tone! At first glance I thought that SAR was an old school original one, Kenworth have done a great with it, if it only had a 8V92 in it, it would be just like going back in time! Cheers for sharing mate!
what you mean the old2 stroke Detroit?....Never happen...they will never be allowed to build that engine again...that and its big brother the V12...consigned to the pages of history!
Why?Buying a truck for 1/2 a million $ then spending a shit load more on bling just to take it to a truck show as a brand new truck to win a $50 plastic trophy just does not make sense.
@@blastermaster2383 What are you talking about? Every almost every klos bros are show trucks but actually work and earn money, taking it to a show and winning an award is just a bonus. It’s called personalising the truck to each owners taste. I doubt you even drive trucks, if you do it’s probably some tiny rigid and your jealous of us big truckers.
Beauty is only skin deep. These new trucks and their emission BS is not worth a sh*t. I'll stick to my old caterpillar motor. One of these new trucks is like getting a pretty woman, that costs you alot of money and is a bitch to live with.
In someways I agree with you there mate. Mind you my truck has done almost 500,000 and hasn’t skipped a beat. 👌🏼 Meanwhile our C 15 just underwent a $45,000 rebuild unfortunately. I totally agree when it comes to the EGR systems. But I’m really happy with my current X 15 👌🏼
Crikey. I had no idea Truck Makers were into so much variation in Australia. Just assumed it was dead or dying like cars. Unreal colours and custom works.
Hi tony. My Name is Royce my father and I have a plant transport business we live in Tasmania and we go over to Melbourne every week with our new Daf trucks?? I like your videos please do a new one for me please so what do you transport and where??? Look forward to hearing from you tony From Royce
Dont remember n14s in these sars they were ntcs formulas and pt cummings 87 was the last sars the n14 came out later that year in the 650s t600s k100es and so on
Yeah you’re up on the money there mate. That’s a problem we’re doing things with one takes, you don’t always nail it. Believe it or not the last model of this model SAR Was actually may before I was born 😂
Short bonnets are still phat. Especially being used for bulk tipping that go up long tight airstrip tracks. Long bonnets aren’t ideal for airstrip jobs.
Know blokes in Europe longhaul on the daf multiple country runs...they love the brand... kinda cult status over there. Nice seeing paccar sincerely offering the goods
Bro, good content "but" show us more of the truck plz! You got the bloke to pop the hood down and didnt even show us the engine and what was being spoken about it wasn't connected with the video. Poor video taking honestly. No lights for in cab detail too. Just sack the bloke holding the camera. Done ✔
The SAR Kenworths have always looked great

Bloody ice mate! I don’t think that attitude will die any time soon with Kenworth

You mean Australia assembled? I thought Kenworth is American?? I’m confuse

Hi there, I might be getting an SAR with an 8V71T for $8500 or an old White 9000 for $3 grand with a 6-71 something soon hopefully.
Good luck mate, I hope get them both!

@@russellking9762 That's quite obvious, I was more thinking of the nostalgic part of the original SAR's!
Got so excited when I saw W900 in the title but unfortunately it wasn't the iconic W9 I thought it would be 😭
I’m lookin forward to seeing what the klos boys do with one 👌🏼

Those who talk like you say that because they know they will never be able to own one but deep down they really want one.Maybe buy a new DAF.
Home away from Home :) but still I think the w900 needs a long bonnet not short one
I’ll have two so long as you put 8V92TTA’s in them

There’s a massive passion for trucks in this country! Pride of once vehicle is as strong as ever

Well done mate...love your vids....and great to see lucky Phil, the truck drivers friend helping out with the bonnet....
Yeah I was really happy that he happened to be loitering around at that point 😂
It would be a real truck if it had a QSK19 Cummings & a 6 speed main trans & a 4 speed aux. trans & the hood was about 3 feet longer .

You’d be a real man if you pronounced Cummins properly
@@dandesso8926 Your pissed off because you came up short in life STUBBY.
@@SuperTransmission go back to your trailer home
Your lucky Tone, you nearly got a thumbs down for the 90 comment
(7:45) ~ Les Eastoe would approve as would Fred Borg 👌 !!!
Cool 👍😎👍🇦🇺
(10:58) Good on ya Poppy 👍💛👍
It's about time guys
Good day mate
You beauty what do ya reckon the puppies will think of that rig

The king of the road in Europe is Scania no question I drive the Scania 770s and it’s a beast.
Yeah it’s amazing the difference in culture I suppose. The big American or Australian style trucks is definitely the preference over here
why is the steering wheel on the wrong side
Would be good to actually see the trucks more and this pair less.
Are you speaking to anyone in particular here Champ. Or just hoping that someone will cling to your comment and give you a little bit of attention?
@@TonesTruckinStories apologies was out of line keep up the good work
well said brudda
What no footy shorts, real trendy.
Ha ha! Thought I better dress up for the camera
el timon es l lado derecho?
Hay tone see ya in a 2023
That you sure will mate!
For the legend c500

Where this location
in Brisbane mate
where where country
500 grand you got to be joking
Paccar Motors suck and they know they do but they keep pushing them they worse then Maxxforce engines
I would say 99% of the Kenworth’s in Australia are actually fitted with Cummens engines 👍🏼
Kenworth have lost rhe plot, the 410s and 610s are garbage and the sar legend isn't much better
