    Thanks for dropping by Bruce. When I went into the room to tell Colton your video was up with him in it (after 2 times since he was too distracted by the tablet) he jumped right up and ran into the living room to watch with us. Made his day you have, lol.

    You should totally get the cab over with the air ride suspension and build up a nice 2 stroke for your fleet. Love me some 2 stroke!!!

  • @stevenlatham4397
    @stevenlatham4397 2 года назад +5

    It would be a hard choice, the first one had beautiful red interior and a 13 speed, but the blue one is a beautiful truck. You should ju offer him a heck of a deal for both lol.
    There’s another excellent RUclipsr named James Pretty you should contact, he’s a cab over king in my opinion.

    Yeah the old silver freightliner would look good in the yard . Sounded pretty decent the first one . Think an old cat would be good tho like a 3306 they reckon they were pretty good and reliable . I couldnt handle the noise of a 2 stroke .Side by side vid was fine too. Dont worry. There is no pleasing some folk . Congratulations on the daughters arrival too ! God bless you brother ! Thanks .

    Jump boxes are awesome. I Have a snowplow truck that doesn't get driven that much. I have to park it 500 ft from an outlet so I'm always jump starting it. The side by side video was great. I live close to the Hatfield and McCoy trails in WV and I see some awesome side by sides come through here!

    Input you requested- Personally I'm not a fan of watching content of a person tearing up brand new vehicles. I don't get much out of the Will It Start events, but if that's your hobby. Just seems like a waste of money to me, but it's not my hobby, so Rock On! I do enjoy the things dealing with your business.... picking up tractors and ferrying them back to the shop, etc. I also enjoy learning more about diesel engines as you work on/around them.
