I believe that the 389X will be more valuable than a numbered classic 359 or a 379X. Mainly due the fact that it is truly the end of an era, assuming that the huck-bolted Peterbilt cab that we all love, will be going buh bye. That cab is a huge part of what makes a Peterbilt, ever since the design came out in 1973 and hasn’t changed drastically, that cab even made a 386 cool. More than likely it’s replacement will be a 589 or some sort of 579 with a plastic w990 type hood. Sad really.
The 379x was built in '04,'05,'06. The last year of the 379 in '07 or '08 is when they built the numbered 379 LEGECY trucks. Know your history guys c'mon.
I'm not a huge Pete guy, never have been, but that 389X is going to be a $$$$ collector item and is absolute perfection. The only way it could be any better is if you could get it as a glider. Damn shame they aren't going to make them any more.
I saw the 589 in Renton, it looks good really good the hood still has huck bolts down the side, SS side air cleaners and SS cab mounted mirror arms. Best of all the grill and grill surround are still the same classic Peterbilt look, Its nothing like a 990 thank god.
The 389X looks awesome. I know that @BruceWilson has ordered a 2023 Peterbilt 389 from you guys. As for electric trucks... the supply chain is going to slow down even more than it is now due to the limited range, like 200 miles between charges.
@@Tafitzy the pride and class did have interior that was different then the regular 389 but you would think since the 389x is going to be a limited run and the last 389 they would make it a bit more special looking.. I don’t know just my thoughts. Don’t get me wrong I would love to get my hands on a 389x
Well I don't want to piss anybody off BUT when CAT stopped supplying the engines for Peterbilt that was the end of Pete for me. Sorry but that's just my 2 cents worth!
They are stopping production on the 389 huh. They better not be making a mistake. I hope they have their white about them and have a proper replacement to the thrown.
Yeah the production of the last date yeah you ain't already enrolled me yeah John Ledford yeah senior yeah it's her okay I'm already all right thank you
Personally, I would give anything to own a 2002 - 2003 Peterbilt 379 EXHD. If I was offered a Peterbilt 389 (final or otherwise), I'm not sure what I would do. I really hate the EPA crap on the newer trucks. As for electrification, you can blame the EPA and Kamala (flipping) Harris for the 2027 "electric truck mandate". I personally feel this EPA crap is stupid beyond reason (plus some things I shouldn't say).
I sure hope the shit don't happen really don't cant believe how everything "cool" about trucking is literally being taken away from us people can say what they want but trucking isn't a job to me and alot of others lifestyle but now they make it not fun at all anymore truck drives itself epa bs etc etc
I’m a diehard Peterbilt guy, but I have absolutely NO interest whatsoever in ANY of those 389X’s. I’ll stay true to my ‘17 Fitzgerald “Dirty Idle” Glider.
Wow I really like that 389x is nice those polished finders are cool and that under glow in the breathers is cool its a all around good looking truck I would to have a blue one
electric cars and trucks is only going to kill the custom and motorsport scene, hope people start realising that and everything running on batteries is not going to work and is not good for the envirment , a mix of both is the best
I’ll give Peterbilt credit on the electric truck, as in it doesn’t look like an alien spaceship. It still looks like a normal truck. But I’d be the one who needs a set of 7” stacks on it anyway 🤘🏻
I’m sorry to say but this country is NOT ready for electric trucks yet.. go to a busy loves, TA or Pilot now and you have to wait to fill up. Now think how long it takes to charge a Tesla… truckers will be there all day to charge.. they need to build the infrastructure first before the even decide to go that route
LOl class 8 electric god help us if you thought the 08/12 EPA standards were bad just you wait because California just had a hold my beer moment. Don't worry though us drivers will never get to drive a electric truck because they want too replace us with a self driving truck, LOL what a time to be alive.
I have a Pride &Class and yess my interior panels are different and specific but the price of that 389X is outrageous....and completely nuts it will be close to or more then 300 grand!!!!
Can’t imagine what the price will be on one of the 389X I’m at 264,9 with my ‘24 389 sleeper being built So stoked to be getting a last year model of one of these trucks
Would love to have one. My 379 burnt back in Feb. Put me out of business was in my second year. Just had trans rebuilt week before. Insurance just paid it off.
I work for republic services, and we have 3 EV Peterbilt's, they are definitely weird to drive. on a full charge we can get through the whole day and that is without running the A/C all day (only towards the end of the day heading to empty the truck. when we get back to the yard the lowest, we have been is 38%. the biggest thing is letting the truck regen when it comes to breaking, cause that will help shove a lot of power back into the batteries. all in all, cool concept but even then, we can't use the freeways because it just sucks a lot of battery power out.
Hey Tommy is Salty Rose still around the plant??? I did a factory tour in January of 2020 and he was the man to show us around! Such an awesome guy! Pretty sure he knows every square inch of that place, and evey employees name! Love the content, keep up the awesome work!!
The new trucks are really nice but I'm an old ex truck driver that prefers nice older equipment that I learned to drive, an grew up with. Admittedly, I wouldn't mind driving one of the new trucks. Like other things in life truckin gets in your blood .
What they going to do with the electric trucks and cars when the battery start going bad at them that's a hazard material right there and they built a power plant in 77 years so unbelievable
End of an era. Government mandates are going to force all trucks to be more aerodynamic and environmentally friendly. 389s are definitely popular but this has more to do with politics and what politicians see as progress.
Talked to my Peterbilt Dealer in NJ and the sales people just suck. I wanted to know if I was going to pull / haul 120,000lbs (I understand I would need an overweight permit) Would I be fine with a regular 389 or do I need a heavy haul version?
It makes me laugh this electric truck stuff. In the fifties and sixties the milk delivery to houses was done by a fleet of electric delivery trucks. They were about the size of a regular step van and you could hear them coming as they sounded like an electric forklift. It was a winning noise. They had them plugged in along the wall of the dairy. So folks, there’s nothing new, it’s just a repeat with new players.
They did a good job with the electric keeping it looking normal but I’m more interested in the hydrogen stuff paccar is working on. I think that is more likely the future of otr. Not electric, at least until they figure out the grid and battery problems.
Sucks. I'm a new truck driver and the 389 classic style is the the truck I want. Seems like it will take me way too long to get the money to buy 1 of them.

The 589 reminds me too much of the 387, quite possibly one of the ugliest conventionals ever made behind the Kenworth T2000
@@ricochetey true!
Some brainwashed marketing to get some suckers to dump some money on some peice of metal .
Wrong. The 389x is just a pride and class rebadged. A 379x is a true special edition truck will keep its value higher over the years.
Might be more valuable but they will never be cooler than a 359.
Sad to see all the classic looking trucks coming to a end. Pretty sure the w900L will be next
It is next. It’s been announced already. The replacement is the W990 which is already out
The 379x was built in '04,'05,'06. The last year of the 379 in '07 or '08 is when they built the numbered 379 LEGECY trucks. Know your history guys c'mon.

I'm not a huge Pete guy, never have been, but that 389X is going to be a $$$$ collector item and is absolute perfection. The only way it could be any better is if you could get it as a glider. Damn shame they aren't going to make them any more.
Yeah should've been a glider
Better recheck the features of the Pride and Class trucks. They had interior features also like blackwood trim and a special steering wheel.
The older that i get the more i love the 359✌️

379x was not on the last year of production as you stated. The 379 Legacy edition was
You would think they would know better.
379X wasn’t the final year of production,the Legacy edition was.
The fact they are saying Pete is the only company offering EV trucks like it’s a good thing saddens me. Always knew I was a Kenworth guy 😂
Got a question for you guys how come you never paint the turbo with a high heat stove paint black ?
I’m a diehard Peterbilt guy, but I have absolutely NO interest whatsoever in ANY of those 389X’s. I’ll stay true to my ‘17 Fitzgerald “Dirty Idle” Glider.

I have a Pride &Class and yess my interior panels are different and specific but the price of that 389X is outrageous....and completely nuts it will be close to or more then 300 grand!!!!
$29K option!!
Guess my W9 will go up in value when the 389 line shuts down next year.
Can’t imagine what the price will be on one of the 389X
I’m at 264,9 with my ‘24 389 sleeper being built
So stoked to be getting a last year model of one of these trucks
If the 389X is going to be the last of the cool trucks then why put the digital dash in it
I'm glad I have a 379x. They can't never make another truck that's equal to that one 😁. They tried though.
If you guys get an electric truck in the shop, are you gonna put some working exhausts on it?😏👍
Would love to have one. My 379 burnt back in Feb. Put me out of business was in my second year. Just had trans rebuilt week before. Insurance just paid it off.
Electrical fire while I was home.

SADNESS
On the electric trucks it’s easy the outside trucks will just quit going to those states.
They're stopping production of the 389? If so, what will replace it?
It would be Priceless

I actually looked for him while I was there. I’m not real sure if he’s still there or not. He didn’t lead either of the tours we was on.
Salty Rose was the best tour guide! He gave the wife and I our own personal tour when we visited March of 2019
No he retired. I retired in March and he left before I did. Salty is a great guy!

The new trucks are really nice but I'm an old ex truck driver that prefers nice older equipment that I learned to drive, an grew up with. Admittedly, I wouldn't mind driving one of the new trucks. Like other things in life truckin gets in your blood .
It needs a stainless Dash like the 379x had
Wouldn't surprise me if the last one was over a million
Electric will not work. Here’s a question. How long will the batteries last? How much will it be to replace?
Peterbilt better keep to square Hood the flat big grill is the one big seller where the money at
It would be more than I could ever afford.
Peterbilt should keep the final 389 and put it in a museum .
Peterbuilts electric trucks now will only go 150 to 200 moles per charge. You can keep them
What will be the 389 successor? Any pic avillable, what'll be the new models name?
What they going to do with the electric trucks and cars when the battery start going bad at them that's a hazard material right there and they built a power plant in 77 years so unbelievable
I would like to know how a battery truck would work in the outback Australia on a road-train
1/2 hour and call a big diesel generator to charge her up and go again..
It would work. But, only for a little while. Lol
389s are going to be the last "classics". Next is probably 399 and will be more like the 567 but a taller hood.
Are there any of these on the road? Hurricane Express has one that looks like it.
1999 was the last year peterbilt made a good truck
Why are they not going to make the 389 anymore its such a popular truck
End of an era. Government mandates are going to force all trucks to be more aerodynamic and environmentally friendly. 389s are definitely popular but this has more to do with politics and what politicians see as progress.
Geez guys, 06 was the last 379 X, legacy was on 07, which was the last year for 379

how abpot stepping back and putting the corvette dash in a new peteerbilt, and toggle switches and a 2 stick option?
The last 389 ever built. Peterbilt should do a drawing and give it away to some lucky somebody for free.
I want one 389X !!!!!!😎👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I’ve been told by someone at Peterbilt that the 567 will be replacing the 389, but I don’t know how reliable that information is.
589 is the 389's replacement
Makes me sad to see this as a 17 year old kid. Not ready for them to be out
I love living in Chillicothe and seeing New Kenworths running round town
Awesome video
Great video guys thanks for all the info
So were going from diesel power to coal power does this make any since whatsoever?

It seems weird the cleaner we make the air the hotter we are getting.
It's outside the government's authority to say what we have to buy.
Troy Massey will probably buy the final 389
I imagine the 389 will get the same treatment as the w900 to the w990 transition.
Any idea what the 589 will look like , I hope it still has the traditional long hood .
Will most likely be a W990 style truck.
Thought Bruce was getting it
Hello Hey Hi and Howdy Yall ..Cleveland Tenn waivin a Hand ✋️ Sayin Peace ✌️ Love 💚 and 18 Wheelz
The final 389 to me it would be priceless
Bruce has the last 589 according to him. So what's next 599
I hate to see the 389 go away. I think it is crazy to stop building the most popular truck on the road
Floating emblems just like a Rolls Royce!
I got a good feeling about my chances, I liked the video and i was # 389
if i won the big lottery pay out i would buy it with my big lottery money to have the 389x
I would pay for The last and final 389x $ 389,000
If that 389x had a yellow motor it would be worth a lot more. Lol
Looks like the w900 is going to be more popular
389x. LoL looks like a pride and class to me

That whole entire building and he couldn’t find anything else to fly around.
diesel motor are flexible with propane and corn fuel
I would just like to know, HOW in The HELL WILL CALIFORNIA be ABLE TO RECHARGE all those EV's?? The infrastructure cannot keep up to the demands NOW..
Sucks. I'm a new truck driver and the 389 classic style is the the truck I want. Seems like it will take me way too long to get the money to buy 1 of them.
Hate the rocker switches. Go back to toggle. Could you be a little more stable on the filming? And we get it's a 389x.
SWEET RIDE Fellas, 🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾
Looks like a Pride and Class
Did they address the infrastructure problems ?
My boss has got a 379x..it be insane if he got a 389x...fingers crossed
Does it come in other colors
I wonder how long those floating center caps will live before the bearing dies.
Sad end to a great lineage of trucks.
🤦
