You should split the cabinets to have center opening doors, safer if you have to open them on the road or if you have less space available to open them.
Curious if this truck gets the Edison conversion if they would integrate the welder into the truck’s generator or offer a welder attachment to other service trucks down the road
Starting with a solid base like that even if you put $50k into it you're still way ahead of buying a shiny new one. That one is already ready to work after a week or two in the shop instead of waiting who knows how long for the new one. Plus it already has a few scratches so you won't be afraid to put it to work whenever you need it.
I can tell u y loggers went with butterfly hoods and not the flip forward hoods because it's cool. And for cooling. What's cooler going up a hill with hood shut screaming away. Or showing what's under the hood in the passing lane screaming away at 100,000lbs
Love how your using only classics to work. You could be the only company to run classics which I like. Square body design will never get old. Each model has a unique look compared to aerodynamic models…they look the same.
That's what I said, because once you get the truck rolling it generates it's own power!!!! Every vehicle on the could be this way, but we have a thing called big oil!!!! And they ain't going to let that happen!!!! Just say'n !!!!!
Lw , the logger model had the butterfly hood simply for the moose killer bumper gaurd welded straight to the frame... couldn't have a tilt hood and have maximum protection on the front.
You should make a short or a short video introducing the truck and explaining the truck's power system and how everything works, like what was on the today show that is easy to share and will get this out there. Im sure your community could help you throw one together if you asked for what theyd like to know/ see in it
You guys are the only reason I would ever want to be Canadian. I dislike Canada as a country but your company would be more than worth the displeasures. Impressive!
I know you're not keen on tech that ages out but I think a mandatory feature on your retrofits should be a GPS that only gives you directions to the nearest Tim Hortons or wherever serves poutine
Old tech and equipment is always better. Better lasting quality materials and components. Simpler designs, easier to repair and maintain. Built to last a lifetime. And the best part is it's grandfathered in on stupid, expensive, and unreliable emissions control systems. I'll take rugged cheap old reliable over shiny expensive new unreliable any day of the week. They old saying that " They don't build em like they used to" Is sooo true!!
Have you ever thought about putting stickers on each vehicle what year and model they are and what engine they have even the trailers??? 1969 W923 220 Cummins 13sp Service Truck “Bob The Builder”
have you considered for a different service truck to instead use an old cab over? such as a 352 or 362 for the shorter wheelbase and added maneuverability.
I would love to have those "moose" bumpers for downtown Chicago. Not a lot of moose per say but protestors a plenty lol. All kidding aside you guys are awesome. I've been jumping up and down for years about diesel electric with a decent size battery pack and using a big ol diesel for a powerful generator. I'm excited to see the final product not to mention the steps along the way. I'm really hoping you guys make it big, not too big because then your hands will slowly but surely get tied behind your backs as political shit gets tossed your way. Makes me laugh when people say they wanna be famous, why? I'd rather be wealthy and completely unknown. You'd never think I'd have 7 figure bank accounts if you saw my 5 year old sketchers with holes in the sides and my old man socks. The way I see it is you learn quickly what people are like when they think you have nothing. Tell people u have a little cash and all of a sudden your good looking, not that old etc etc lol. Good luck guys, I mean it. I've been a underground utilities guy for 20 plus years and the best part of the job was the big toy's including our old Mack's and more.
LMFAO lololol lolol 😂 u crazy Canadian you, damn it boy, i luv u, BUT 300K DOLLAR TRUCK?!?!? WTF HUH? no son, the brand new version is a 300grand beast, what u got is the 50yr old grandpapy of that truck,, ten grand is bout exactly what shes worth

That is genius. Making a truck set up as a locomotive. With wheel regenerate would also be a good idea.

Newer does not necessarily mean better...as you are proving!

Go grab the Kenworth.
"Which one?"
The 69.
"Which 69?"
The blue one!
"Which Blue one?"
THE SERVICE TRUCK!
"WELL WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO!!!!!"
I need to try out the double flannels haha
It’s warm
Now that’s my kind of environmentalism.
I was born in 69 I say we name her BETTY bombshell with a pin up girl holding an electric bolt painted on both sides
I live in california and absolutley love that truck.

So when will it be converted to hybrid?

🤫🤫🤫🤫 don’t tell our secrets lol

Can I come up there and work for you guys?
You should name your trucks after ice hockey players with retired numbers, eh?

Oh my God just 10k cheaper than my Tacoma
Edison motors 🤟🤟
Should turn old blue into an electric service truck.
No. Because the electric has not been proven to be as knowingly reliable as traditional deisel power.
What's cool is the Edison would have enough power to run a welder off the trucks generator
If you guys make a regular pick up truck 🛻 that’s easy to service you’ll eat the market alive.
Tell me about it! Two hours to change a park lamp on my Ford, and the auto electrician I use was impressed, says the new model takes 3 hours!
So cool 😎
What the hell happened to the tool cabinet doors???
We'll see how those sales numbers go for you.
LMFAO lololol lolol 😂 u crazy Canadian you, damn it boy, i luv u, BUT 300K DOLLAR TRUCK?!?!?
WTF HUH? no son, the brand new version is a 300grand beast, what u got is the 50yr old grandpapy of that truck,, ten grand is bout exactly what shes worth
