    A truck is built to be ran, and to be used, not to be sitting and collecting dust. You did the right thing.

    Well that was quick! It's good to see Some Day going back to her original owner. She's going into good hands once again where she'll be back running before we know it.

    Bittersweet moments for sure, but great to see Someday going home where she will be cared for and you know where it will be. Now get out of the house and let the door hit you on the way. Sarah is just too funny. Stay safe and God bless.

    How cool that you let Someday go home! Seeing Troy starting her reminds me of my Dad letting me pull the truck forward and backwards loading grain that lead to my trucking career! Can't wait to see Troy move First Class with his Dad!

    Nice old truck, Kurt. Glad it's going home to get worked again. BTW, yes, you should put 'The Lady' on 'First Class'. She deserves a little bling.

    Kurt selling the Freightliner is a good thing. She went home to live and breathe again. The truck will have new life. Also with First Class down. Remember the good quality family time that you are blessed with. I am sure you will reflect on the quality family time very soon when you return to the Trucking world.
    Take care and be safe.

    Thankyou for yet another great video. Looks like Some Day has gone to a good home. I retired from a career in law enforcement and only recently started driving truck full time after getting my Class 1 licence 12 years ago. I'm driving an 03 Freightliner FLD with DD 60 series and 18 speed hauling reefers and dry vans. I have never been so happy in my life as when behind the wheel of that old Freightliner. Keep the great videos coming and know that we really appreciate your videos and positive attitude towards life!!! Ps, you have a great family as well. A definite reflection of where you came from and who you are.....

    I know how hard it is to let go of an old truck. My first was a B model Mack. It is was not pretty but was a heck of a stout old truck. It is good that it went back home. Good to see the family gathered in to say goodbye. Now back to trucking. Be safe and havagudun friend.

    Very sad for you I'm sure as there must be a lot of memories with that truck. I'm facing a similar dilemma with my late Fathers' car. Its sat outside in the rain having been garaged by him for 22 years. It needs to move on - you are very fortunate that its gone back home

    @keithpillman9158 Год назад

    That was hard, wasn't it? Yup, I could see/feel it. I would have trouble too... Hell, I almost teared up myself, over YOUR FreightShaker! I drove one very similar (never knew what year it was, just keep it full of oil and keep the brakes adjusted and don't forget to grease the driveline because ALL loads were pretty much full legal limit)... Your Some Day is a pretty lady, and it WILL be working again instead of sitting in your driveway. Good decision. Hard, but Good.

    As with farmers owning land, this is ownership not true. One only has possession during man lifespan because ownership belongs to our creator. One has to live and let go.

    When we get rid of a vehicle we took pride in for so long, it does get emotional. Last year we traded my 2010 HD Heritage Stage ll bike in for a new 2021 Tri Glide, it bothered me for a couple of weeks. But now that we both love the Tri Glide, it is ok that someone else has my Heritage. That bike had NO after market parts at all and it was one pretty bike with plenty of Power.
